When it comes to magazines, it always seems like next month's issue lands impossibly earlier and earlier at our doorsteps. Well, for once, we're glad the August issues are already on the stands, since the latest issue of Allure comes brimming with a s----ton of fashion and beauty freebies. Well, how many is that you ask? We think it's safe to say that 34,328 many equals a s----ton, yeah? In any case, it pays to be prepared for what's in store. Sure, beauty sleep is great. But this time, if you snooze, you sure as hell do lose.

Giveaways begin at 1:00 pm on the first of August, so check the calendar in this month's issue and make a note of your favorites on your iPhone, or just text "FREESTUFF" to ALLURE for friendly/annoying reminders 30 minutes before each giveaway begins. And since we're not eligible for any of the stuff (c'est la vie!), here's a helpful roundup of some keynote dates you don't want to miss, after the jump...

Meet Allure's Daily Beauty Reporter, Jessica Matlin. This Jersey girl has been a beauty buff since her tween years frequenting the local mall's Versace makeup counter. A former assistant makeup artist herself, J-Mat (what the Allure editors upstairs lovingly call her) knows that the art of a stunning look starts with a healthy, clean canvas. She proves her skin know-how this month in her Allure piece "Skin Magicians," where she gives the scoop on how models get their (oft-naked) bods flawless for skincare ads. So without further ado, "The Beauty Expert"'s expert gives us a PF-personalized report of the latest and greatest in skincare.

Thank christ the weather is getting warmer, and I don't know about you, but my pasty ass has definitely been spending a little more time outside lately. This brings us to a particularly Product Fiend-esque dilemma: How much sunscreen is enough? Since many of us have switched to...

Editors' Favorites: Laura Mercier Nail Lacquer in Sterling

Our fashion editor says there's a fine line between edgy and ugly. We couldn't agree more. This limited-edition pale silver polish is clearly the former. Sure, it's a little bit rock and roll, but its metallic gleam is every bit as pretty—and wearable—as the sweet nudes we...

Does Laura Mercier Liquid Liner Work For Me?

nospam@example.com ()

This morning, I stopped by the new Laura Mercier Lash Bar at Henri Bendel and got some subtle fake lashes added just at the outer corner of each eye. Love them--they look seriously real, and took all of five minutes--but the makeup artist also did liquid liner, which I always think looks too...

The darkness has passed—and I have even more valuable information re colds to pass along: When you at long last return to work, your skin (if it's anything like mine) will probably look gray and wizened, you'll likely still feel like your life force has been sapped from you, and the...
