I have £70 of Debenhams vouchers to spend but am not sure what to get.

What would you buy?

I'm tempted to blow it all in the beauty department, makeup n skin care. What would you get, can you recommend? Smile

I do love the Urban Decay palettes. Not cheap but when you think about it, it only works out as about £3 per eyeshadow, and you get a decent brush too.

CointreauVersial · 02/08/2015 23:10

I was about to say Urban Decay!

Their kitchen/china/household stuff is worth a look. Handbags good as well.

WishITookLifeSeriously · 02/08/2015 23:12

And bras!

Sansarya · 02/08/2015 23:17

Debenhams seems to have 10-15% off promotions practically every other week these days, so if you want to make the most of your vouchers I'd keep an eye out for these!

I was in yesterday, and our Debenhams has a Phase Eight, and their sale clothes are fantastic. I only bought a sweater and 2 pairs of trousers, a necklace & a silk vest

Laura7010 · 02/08/2015 23:25

I agree with undies and make up! They have a benefit counter too so some nice make up from there? Or perhaps a new perfume?

Marylou2 · 03/08/2015 05:10

New bras or the Urban Decay Smoky Palette is being launched any day now. Also you can't go wrong with Estee Lauder Night Repair Seruml

whiteagle · 03/08/2015 05:48

Bras and pants - really like their undies section. Make sure there is a sale on!

Magicrealism · 03/08/2015 08:28

YSL Fusion Ink Foundation is brilliant. It's a liquid, but gives very good even coverage. Wonderful texture. The best foundation I've ever come across.

SuperFlyHigh · 03/08/2015 09:18

bras and pants, Phase Eight or makeup/skincare.

MrsMummyPig · 03/08/2015 09:49

Clinique products. I love them all!

ProcrastinatingPat · 03/08/2015 09:59

Make up and I love mantaray stuff and handbags ????

HolgerDanske · 03/08/2015 10:16

Yep, beauty/make-up/perfume. Esp if they're doing one of their beauty points events, that way you earn a bit back to spend later Wink

Not keen on most of their clothing but i did once find a really lovely taupe casual jacket which was perfect for my summer wardrobe. Worth a look at sunglasses too, they're not too expensive.

Bunbaker · 03/08/2015 10:17

There swimwear is brilliant.

HolgerDanske · 03/08/2015 10:17

Urban decay is lovely - I've got four palettes. And their eyeliners are very good too. But they only sell that online, I think

Bunbaker · 03/08/2015 10:17

Their, not there. I can spell.

captainpotter · 03/08/2015 12:40

I'd get a fiorelli handbag Smile

MissMiss1 · 04/08/2015 08:41

Thank you ladies, may look online then go to my local store, as it's quite a large one.

I would love to get a good foundation and mascara, can anyone recommend any? Need to get a smooth natural coverage plus want super long and voluminous lashes

The only thing I ever buy in Debenhams is their invisible knickers, which are brilliant, and make-up.

goinggrey1978 · 05/08/2015 11:41

towels are very nice too!!

PennilynLott · 05/08/2015 11:58

Boringly, bras. They stock fantasie so id get a new set.

blodynmawr · 05/08/2015 12:10

Bras or gazillion thread count bedding which is often on offer.

hiccupgirl · 05/08/2015 13:15

Ras and their own Grogerous range of pyjamas and nighties is really lovely too. I'd also have a route around in the concessions like Wallis as you never know what you might find in there.

MsBojangles · 05/08/2015 13:39

HD foundation and a perfume.

MsBojangles · 05/08/2015 13:40

MUFE HD foundation that is, so many damn letters!
