I know I already posted today but didn’t want to wait until tomorrow to share this. Right now you can build your own gift, worth over $125, with any $39.50 purchase on the Estee Lauder web site. (Yes, for those of you wondering, this gift is virtually identical to the current bonus running at Nordstrom, but allows for more personalization; plus read below for a coupon for extra freebies). You can choose from these options:

Skincare (choose one):

  • Prevention: Advanced Night Repair Eye (7 day supply) and DayWear Plus Creme SPF 15 (14 day supply)
  • Even Skintone: Hydra Complete Eye (7 day supply) and HydraBright Creme (14 day supply)
  • Anti-Wrinkle: New Time Zone Eye (7 day supply) and Time Zone Creme SPF 15 (14 day supply)
  • Lifting/Firming: Resilience Lift Extreme Eye (7 day supply) and Resilience Lift Extreme SPF 15 (14 day supply)

Palette (choose one):

  • Warm includes Pure Color Crystal Lipstick in shade Ripe Papaya and an Eye and Lip Palette with these shades: Eight eyeshadows in Honey Drop, Cinnamon, Tea Biscuit, Mink, and Truffle Quad, and three Pure Color Lipsticks in Tiger Eye, Melon, and Nectarine
  • Cool includes Pure Color Crystal Lipstick in shade Ripe Papaya and an Eye and Lip Palette with these shades: Ivory Box, Sand Box, Pale Moon, Smokey, and Smoky Pink Quad, and three Pure Color Lipsticks in Pink Parfait, Bois de Rose, and Rose Tea

Estee Lauder GWP

Every gift also includes a 14 day supply of New Advanced Night Repair, a 10 day supply of Projectionist Mascara, and a patent trim cosmetic bag. Shipping is free if you spend over $50 and right now you can still choose three samples at checkout (but that may drop to two or zero samples tomorrow).

Update: This coupon has sold out, its no longer valid. If you are spending $50 you can also add coupon code TURBOSURVEY09 to get an additional free three items: Brow shaping pencil (full size), a deluxe eyeshadow palette with seven cool shades, and a 10 day supply of Lash Primer Plus. 11/3 update: You can now choose two samples at checkout, not three.
