I had a similar experience to you - I went in after years of not going in. Ended up buying a coconut body butter (smells wonderful and it's great when used with one of those body lillies) and have since bought some more goodies online. If you go via quidco you get £4.50 back when buying a £5 love your body card too.

The free birthday gift is for the month of your birthday only. Although it's worth asking in store-they might let you if you ask nicely.

Is the cashback for the card still going on? My card expired yesterday so if the offers still on that would be great!

i was in there today. i think a lot of their bath stuff, whilst lovely, is on the pricey side and a bit extravagent for everyday use. fine for a treat though.

I agree - the minerals make-up range is the same. I bought the foundation, 2 eyeshadows and 2 make-up brushes. Total was well over £50! When I came home I found that foundation and eyeshadows didn't look nearly as good as they did in store (probably due to the store lighting etc). Foundation didn't provide any coverage at all and you couldn't even see the eyeshadows! The brushes are fantastic though

twinkle, have you tried a few layers of the minerals foundation? I find I need at least three to get the coverage I like.

I worked in my local store until fairly recently. All stores are highly encouraged to sample products to customers, in fact they get marked down in mystery shops if they don't demo, or at least offer to demo, products (not necessarily giving samples, but trying products eg. body butters on the backs of hands). We never minded giving samples out as long as someone's not taking the mickey and asking for one of everything.
