Phil Smith in Cosmopolitan

Hello bloggers :)

 

You may remember my Percy & Reed in Glamour magazine post from last month and today I have another magazine with freebie post for you! I think I may make this a monthly series and each month I will feature the latest issue of a magazine and the 'gift' that comes with it. My Glamour mag post last month was only put up on the 29th and although this one is earlier, it is still quite near the end of the month. Next time, I will try to put my mag post up in the first week or so of the month, to allow anyone who fancies picking up a copy plenty of time to do so. As I said in the Glamour post, I don't stick to one particular title, so it will probably be different each time. This month, I went for Cosmopolitan.

 

 

 

Last month, I got a Volumising Oil hair product from Percy & Reed (which I have been loving) and this month's magazine pick also happens to include a hair oil. I didn't deliberately pick such a similar product but out of the few magazines available in the little petrol station I was in, this is the one I fancied most.

 

The product is a 'luxury argan hair oil'. It is the Phil Smith 'Hair Transforming Cream'. According to the back, you just apply a pea sized amount to damp hair through the mid-lengths and ends before blow drying to achieve silky smooth hair. In Cosmopolitan, you get a 50ml sample. I had a look on the Phil Smith website and the full-sized product is 100ml with an RRP of £10.99.

 

Personally, I've never tried anything from the Phil Smith range before but I have heard a lot of good things about argan (also known as Moroccan) oil as a hair treatment so I am looking forward to giving this a go.

 

Have you tried this product?

Percy & Reed in Glamour

Hello! So I have a wonderful 4 days off work thanks to the Easter bank holidays so on my way home yesterday I decided to treat myself to a magazine. There's not one magazine I'm subscribed to or have to purchase every time a new issue comes out. I'll just randomly decide to pick one up and my decision of which one to get is usually based on which one I think has the best free gift that month. This time I decided to go for Glamour as it comes with a free Percy & Reed hair product.

There are 4 Percy & Reed gifts to choose from including:

• Shampoo
• Conditioner 
• Finishing Polish
• Volumising Oil

I picked Glamour up at my local Sainsbury's and there was only a few copies left. The leftover copies had either the Conditioner or the Volumising Oil as the free gift so I went for the "Smoothed, Sealed & Sensational Volumising No Oil Oil (for fine hair)" (Wow, catchy name...)

According to the Percy & Reed website, the full size version of this product (60ml) is £14 so I think it's a pretty good deal to get a 30ml sample free in a £2 magazine. Personally, I've never tried any Percy & Reed products and I'm always looking for ways to give my hair a little boost so I'm looking forward to giving this a go (it also smells great).

Have you ever tried any Percy & Reed hair products?
