I really liked the looks of l'occitane calendar but I don't use foot/body/hand creams and I have nobody to dump them.

I like the look of the limited edition Glossybox so I’ve subscribed for one month to give me a decent chance of getting it. I’m going to end up with so much stuff but I’ll spread the love with what I don’t use.

@Bansku19 why not ask on here for swops ?
I'd happily exchange / buy loccitane ?

@PlatinumBrunette

This one? Nars - make-up only?

Does anyone know if the Space NK one is likely to come down on Black Friday?
That’s the one I’ve got my eye on!

Jonesy just had an email from SpaceNK saying there are only a few calendars left. You might get lucky!!

NYX for make up?

SpaceNK was gone before Black Friday last year - plus their usual shtick for BF is full-size products of various kinds, depending on whether you spend £150/200/250

@LEELULUMPKIN I don't want you to go without a response but I'm no help at all...I haven't ordered it so have no idea. I ordered the ASOS men's calendar a couple of years ago for DH and he really enjoyed opening it. He used a few of the products but a lot of things went to waste, but only because DH is so low maintenance. I'm talking shower gel and deodorant... that's it! There were things like beard oils, hair wax, facial washes, hand creams...a massive mix so it was obvious some wouldn't be used.

Hope your DH loves the calendar!

this is mainly make up and very inexpensive! the link is not correctly named!

Ah, thank you! I think the Nyx one will be the best for her.

Thanks FadingStar (sorry, don't know how to do bold!) It hasn't arrived yet and it will be the first one I have ever got him, so it is a real leap of faith.

My DH sounds like yours re: the products he will use, however, my DNephew will be getting any beard oil etc as he has one!

I was tempted by the Next one which is a third of the price but the reviews are rubbish - they all say that windows are already opened and that the box isn't strong enough for the contents.

Full disclosure, I am only getting it him out of guilt! It will ease my conscience opening the four I have - Liberty, Look Fantastic, M&S and Holland & Barratt.

I feel really, really bad but am justifying it by the fact that we are going on a very posh holiday in March for my 50th and all of those travel sizes will come in VERY handy! :)

😂😂 I like your style! I've bought my DH a beer advent calendar out of guilt as well!! Hopefully he will be too drunk to notice that I have five calendars sitting around to open.

Gave MiL her M&S calendar this weekend as an early Christmas present and she was thrilled.

Anyone going to try for a half price Grazia tomorrow morning?
I usually get M&S but when I had a quick peek found it too same-y this year and was gutted as I loved the daily thread
It was a great price too , so if Grazia goes to 42.50 that would be ideal
Fingers crossed

I might 🙈

Advice on the LiB site is to load up your basket now.

Anyone got the McMillan one? Looks nice but out of stock.

Really wanted the amazon one but that's out of stock except the £85 ltd one

If I load my basket now on LIB site will it hold it until morning?

@diamondsandrose yes, the site is saying load your basket in preparation so it will hold!

For anyone still up... LIB discounts are now live: www.latestinbeauty.com/collections

Thanks @RenardeRenarde.
Grazia ordered; M&S and Boots Macmillan already squirrelled away. Roll on December 1st.

I want the Macmillan one - going to town to try today.
Wtf is going on with the Amazon one? Two - £120 and £89 now on their site.

Ordered the half price grazia to add to my collection!

@Noeuf Ir's Amazon Marketplace sellers, not Amazon themselves.

Oh right - so sold out and being resold?
