This is not a drill. We teach you how to get free beauty products: HERE.

What’s not to love about free stuff? Nothing!

I have nothing but ALL the love for free stuff.

That’s why when it came to my attention that you can get all kinds of free beauty shit and not just while perusing the cosmetics section at department stores pretending to buy stuff but for realz, I decided to write this post.

And for some of it you don’t even have to leave the safety of the couch.

Lazy. Free. Beauty. Stuff.

Here’s the best free beauty stuff on the web (and in store) right now:

FREE SERVICES

Sportsgirl

Want to get your nails done for the weekend for FREE? Hit up Sportsgirl for one-on-one sessions with their pro nail artists every Friday and Saturday.

Only available in their flagship stores Pitt St, Sydney, Bourke St, Melbourne and Chadstone, Melbourne. For more details click here.

Bobbi Brown

Recognising we’re not all born with the ability to wave an eyeliner wand, beauty brand Bobbi Brown provide free make up lessons.

Covering off on how-to do the smoky eye look, refreshing your look, tips for teenagers new to make up and a problem-solution workshop to help solve dark circles, breakouts etc. Book here.

Kit Cosmetics

If you’ve got the burning desire to try the Kit/Gorman nail sticker collection, you can do it for free (only for Melbournites in March). Head to kit @ Westfield Doncaster, Saturday 23 March between 10-4pm. Deets here.

Also if you’re near a Priceline it’s worth following them on Facebook as they often hold free in-store events like 30-minute makeovers from Revlon and Toni & Guy.

FREE SAMPLES

GAIA SKIN + BEAUTY allow Facebook fans to sign up for free samples. The company stock products designed for sensitive skin including: Foaming Cleanser, Creamy Cleanser, Facial Exfoliant, Refreshing Toner, Facial Moisturiser, Intensive Moisturiser, Body Wash & Body Moisturiser. Get yours here.

Get a free sample of Lancome‘s Super Serums; Lancome Genefique and Lancome Visionnaire. Requiring a bit more effort, you have to like Lancome on Facebook here, print your coupon and then take it to the counter. If you don’t have Facebook (or don’t want to like the company) you can get the offer here.

Palmers Australia also allow Facebook fans to try their new BB Cream. Click here to get yours.

To celebrate Pinch Me’s launch, they are giving away free samples (mostly hair products) to new sign-ups. Click here to get yours.

FYI: The Mysavings.com website regularly post on beauty freebies applicable to Australian residents. You can check them out here.

COMPETITIONS

The only effort required (aside from tedious form filling) for most of these competitions is liking a Facebook page, and lets be honest if you’ve had a Facebook account for more than a year, you’ve pretty much already handed your life over to Mark Zuckerburg anyway.
