Free £4-£10ish Lancôme beauty samples plus free massage. Instore only!

If you head to a Lancôme beauty counter, you can ask for a free 5ml sample of Advanced Genifique serum plus one of five moisturisers. There's no voucher needed, and based on the full-sized 50ml versions, the freebies are estimated to be worth between £3.55 and £6 and the serum £9.83 based on the full-sized 30ml version.

There are 2,000,000 samples available which will be released in batches throughout the year, but when they’re gone, they’re gone. Each Lancôme counter - there are 685 in the UK - will have the samples but larger stores will have a bigger allocation. You'll find the counters in department stores, Boots and some pharmacies.

The Lancôme samples are 5ml tubes, available in five types of moisturiser (plus Advanced Genifique serum):

• Advanced Genifique serum - works on fine lines and dullness, for all skin types. Worth £9.83 based on the full-sized 30ml version.
• Hydra Zen day cream - soothing and hydrating, for dry skin. Worth £3.55 based on the full-size 50ml version.
• Visionnaire day cream - anti-wrinkle and for improved skin texture. Worth £5.40 based on the full-size 50ml version.
• Visionnaire night cream - gel texture. Worth £5.30 based on the full-size 50ml version.
• Renergie Multi Lift day cream - lifting and firming – for more mature skin. Worth £4.48 based on the full-size 50ml version.
• Advanced Genifique cream - works on fine lines and dullness, for all skin types. Worth £5.90 based on the full-sized 50ml version.

In order to get your freebie, you'll need to answer a few questions about your skin type (whether your skin is shiny, tight, or normal), which should take about three minutes. Remember, there is no obligation to buy anything or act on any advice, but be prepared - it might try and upsell you. 

Free facial or hand massage

While you are at the counter, you can also get a free 15-minute facial or 10-minute hand massage, no booking required.
