Overview: PINCHme (Australia)

PINCHme is an Australian website that anyone can signup to and receive free samples to try and review. 

From their website (sums up what they do really well) 
"PINCHme gives you the unique opportunity to discover exciting new products and try them for free. It's simple - you choose a product from one of our leading brands, and we'll deliver it to your home or workplace for free. Once you've tried, tasted or touched the exciting products on offer, you can leave your feedback. It’s that easy!

Samples are released to the PINCHme Homepage on varying weeks, and we announce on Facebook and Twitter when the samples are available to claim. We also release Surprise Samples at different times, to different target groups. If you are part of the chosen target group for a Surprise Sample, you will receive a special email."

Once you've signed up you can start earning points by ordering samples, giving your feedback, visiting the site etc. There are 5 levels to get through. I'm not going to explain all the levels, but I will say that once you reach level 5 you are eligible to "receive a $25 gift card for every additional 100,000 Pinching points you earn". But to get to level 5 you need to obtain 300,000 points so it will take some time. 

Samples you can choose from include shampoos, conditioners, deodorants, pet food items, food samples etc. In terms of the size of the samples they are not silly foil packets that you only get one use. The sizes are actually quite generous you can get about 3-5 uses out of the samples (enough to actually form an opinion). I think it's a great way to try things for free and as an added bonus you occasionally get sent coupons with the items...big thumbs up for that. And not to mention it's all FREE.

Now be warned sometimes they run out of popular samples so there will be times where samples are out of stock so be quick or just wait till the next time samples are released (every 2 weeks).

Haul: Gerard Cosmetics

In early March I came across a promotion for Gerard Cosmetics which included 2 lip glosses for $20 since I've been wanting to try these products for a while I decided to give their products a try. While I was on the site I checked out the sale section and there was a lipstick and lip gloss combo which was also $20. So I thought perfect... 4 lip products for $40 plus free shipping. In Australian dollars it cost approximately $54.  The colours I bought were; 1. Lipstick in Nude 2. Lip glosses in Nude (light pink nude), Deduction (dark and vampy) and Salmon (peachy orange)  My order came in less then 2 weeks, which was amazing. I couldn't believe how quick it came. However when I received my order I noticed something odd about the lip gloss in Seduction. It looked almost as if the tube was half empty. So I sent an email about my concerns and they responded to me within a day. And this was their response. "Hi love, We are so sorry this has happened :( Ple...

Review: wotnot Natural Organic Facial Wipes

For a long time you could only buy the wotnot facial wipes online. But you can now find them in Priceline for $7.99 or with the travel case (like shown above) for $9.99. While it is very pricey for make-up wipes, personally I think it is so worth it. If in doubt wait for the 40% off skincare sale. Some important things to note, these wipes are: "Certified organic pink grapefruit and petitgrain Certified organic papaya (pawapaw) Certified organic rosehip 100% natural and biodegradable fibre Free from alcohol and artificial perfumes Free from parabens and petrochemicals Ideal for sensitive skin" The wipes are large, moist and very refreshing. They have an earthy type smell which is not off putting...I swear. So don't be afraid if you're sensitive to smells. Not only are these wipes made up of amazing ingredients but they do the job and do it well. I wear light to medium make-up on my face and more medium-heavy eye make-up. And I find that the...

Review: Optiva Aqua-Capture Serum and Nourishing Night Cream

So firstly my skin type is dry/normal. I'm prone to hormonal breakouts. Every time I get a pimple it scars whether or not I've popped it (gross I know). So my main issue are my scars. But like I mentioned I do have somewhat dry skin and I really do feel like these have helped with my dry patches and preventing my skin from flaking.  1. Optiva Aqua-Capture Serum  30ml $24 " This super concentrated skin hydrating serum has a light formulation, which is easy to apply and works deep into the skin. The serum strengthens the skin barrier in just two weeks improving its tolerance for the long term. Specially formulated to offer an immediate comforting and calming effect. Apply after cleansing and before moisturising both morning and night. Clinically proven to reveal healthier skin in just two weeks. " Overall I think this is a really nice serum, but honestly I'm not really a serum girl and this product hasn't converted me. I feel like it's an un...
