The one I got was the black one with the brush, I didn't know there was a white one! (or I would've tried it too)
I'm going to look out for another of the lippies too, it's lovely!0 -

I have a couple I have tried and hated too - one was a lash extravagence from Boots in a purple tube, it had a big square plastic brush which was awful and it didn't go on without clumping - all I ended up with was four big eyelashes as it didn't seperate them! If it hadn't been for the free eyeshadow quartet and the £5 off voucher it would have been a total waste of £110 -
Really annoyed, been to over thirteen different shops and most told me that lots of people are buying loads and spoiling it. I fully agree! I bet loads of these will be on eBay, all I wanted was an eye cream. It's so greedy to buy every single magazine, I would never dream of doing that myself! Never mind, the lady at the Clinique counter knew I was a usual customer and gave me an eye cream sample!0

I love the mascara. I like the high impact one best, its one of my favourites.0 -

it is a monthly magazine so i'm sure there will be more appearing in shops as it has only just come out so keep trying

Unfortunately the nature of the offer is encouraging people to want the full set - and if i recall correctly, the post on MSN in the newsletter was along the lines of 'hurry up and stock up'.
My big Tescos had more mags out today with the eye cream and moisture surge - I had it in my hand but put it back so someone else could enjoy it as I have them both. Oh and I'm not supposed to be buying magazines or toiletries. But like Jamsandwich said, it's a nice way to try out new products without a huge outlay.
Hope everyone gets what they want and this stuff doesn't end up on ebay - mind you, what doesn't end up on ebay - and remember, they can only sell it there because people are buying it.....Less stuff, more life, love, laughter and cats!
Even if I'm on the shopping threads, it doesn't mean I'm buying! Sometimes it's good to just look and then hit the CLOSE button!0 -

I agree on those spoiling it by buying every single copy,regardless of the product,just to sell on eBay. I do hope this wasn't aimed at us who were buying 10 copies in the sole purpose of having all 10 items in our make up bag. After all,it does say in big letters on the mag "collect all 10 gifts":happyloveBaby girl born 27/2/12:happylove

Although I think that it is a little selfish to buy more than 10 copies, I think the fault lies with glamour for having 10 freebies and making us want to collect them all. Hopefully they will be prepared with extra stock distributed throughout the month.
I think they should have had a fewer selection of products i.e. 5 products this month and then 5 products next month. It wouldn't have caused such a problem and sales for next months magazine would also have increased! I don't remember stock being so sparce when the 4 x benefit freebies were given out a few months ago!0 -
I have no problem with people collecting the set, even stocking up, but to buy just to flog on ebay is a bit much.
I stopped myself buying a spare of the lipstick, primarily because i have loads, so wouldn't have been used for years! The one thing I really would love would be the eye cream.0
