Beauty Advent Calendars 2019

It’s almost that time again! Anyone have their eye on anything?

There is a good overview here: www.marieclaire.co.uk/beauty/beauty-advent-calendars-2019-39069

I’m waiting on the M&S one as I loved it so much last year (no sign of it so far but I suspect it will be similar to 2018 for release date, so around start of November). I also like the look of the Look Fantastic and Nuxe but three may be pushing it. Grin

If money was no object I’d be on the Jo Malone and Lush calendars.

Does anyone know where I'd find a full list of contents of the Boots/Glamour one?

My M&S came today, still hanging on for a deal on the look fantastic, I know they did a deal last Black Friday but so I risk it?

Baileystruffle · 28/10/2019 22:04

Full list and contents of them all here

Boots have 25% off the Soap and Glory and Macmillan calendars.

AlwaysOnAbloodyDiet · 29/10/2019 08:38

Thank you @Baileystruffle

Latest in Beauty have 20% off with code HAL20 including 2 advent calendars - but I think the Sunday Times beauty boxes they have are better value in real life as they are mainly full sizes.

I rate the Beauty Boss box.

I saw the Boots Sop and Glory one today at £42 but it wasn't shown on the % off chart. M&S didn't have them in.

Twisique · 29/10/2019 19:48

I got the Soap and Glory one last week, £31 ish.

Here, found it:
Soap and Glory

I really wanted the Glossybox one for DD but it's sold out. I noticed the Net A Porter came back in stock so praying Glossybox find a few more hidden in the back of a cupboard somewhere.

SunshineCake · 29/10/2019 20:03

I don't know now whether to get the soap and glory one or the m and s one.

FadingStar · 29/10/2019 20:06

Does anyone know if Space NK are doing the crackers GWP this year?

SunshineCake · 29/10/2019 20:06

The No 7 has sold out and Boots aren't getting any more in.

wontletmelogin · 29/10/2019 20:08

With regards to the carry on suitcase would you not need to take liquid items out? Something to think about maybe.

AlwaysOnAbloodyDiet · 29/10/2019 20:12

The No7 one always sells out very quickly online, and they don't restock.

I think it's a clever marketing ploy to get me people to rush to the store in a crazed panic Halloween Wink

Horehound · 29/10/2019 22:25

I just went to m and s online and it tells you everything that's in it! So inspired it for myself but actually I haven't spoiled it because it seems incredibly similar to last year's one?

Did anyone have the M+S one last year? Are this years products different or very similar? Thank you -

Butterymuffin · 30/10/2019 09:55

Could we not have loads of spoilers here? Some of us don't want to know! There are links above if anyone wants to check out exactly what's in each calendar. I would really rather not have a full run down here as I actually open mine day by day.

LEELULUMPKIN · 30/10/2019 09:57

Well after holding out I have finally caved and ordered the M&S one with my Sparks offer.

I have The Liberty one (first time) The Look Fantastic and tomorrow I get my paws on the M&S.

Not touching any of them until Dec 1st, however I am in the US for 5 days during Dec so won't be here to open them.

Just might have a teeny peek at those 15 boxes before I go as there could be a life saving travel product I might NEED on the trip! :)

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 30/10/2019 10:30

I am beyond excited to be able to actually join this thread Grin I have wanted a beauty advent calendar for years but could never afford/justify it, but it's been a shit year for me and DH has surprised me with a Feel Unique one.

I have a very poor working memory atm so am extremely tempted to open the whole thing, look and put them back as I won't remember what they were tomorrow by 1st December BlushSmile

I'm resisting temptation. Just about Wink

Sammi38 · 30/10/2019 10:59

@Butterymuffin sorry, my bad. I’ve asked to have my post withdrawn.

Butterymuffin · 30/10/2019 11:09

Sorry on my part Sammi, that was a bit snippy of me. Though it was actually the 'is this year's M&S calendar similar or different?' post that set me off, because answering that is going to = spoilers. If people want detail I think they should look themselves or read / watch reviews. I'm enjoying the anticipation of the thread but I don't want to know lots about the contents in advance!

PrincessWatermelon · 30/10/2019 12:59

So, the M&S one comes out tomorrow. I can't get to a store until Tues next week. And I don't know what I want to spend £25 on, so was hoping to go in and have a wander and browse. Do you think it'll still be available 5 days after release, or should I order online and buy anything to make up the money? It's the only calendar I'm getting and have been so excited!!

CottonHeadedNinyMuggins · 30/10/2019 14:01

You could order online and return the things to store on the Tuesday just incase so you don't miss out? That way you've covered your bases Smile

Finally got the account issue sorted. Excited Smile

Sammi38 · 30/10/2019 14:15

No worries @Butterymuffin I got carried away with the excitement of it all.

I caved and ordered the look fantastic calendar. So that’s 3 I’ve got now, space NK, London Liberty and now Look Fantastic. Think that’s definitely it for me now!
