Advent Calendar Swap Thread

I thought it might be a good idea to have a single thread for any swaps from across ALL calendars.

Disclaimer: swap at your own risk. You are responsible for agreeing the terms of the swap, sending the items out etc. Exchange addresses via DM only.

@BlueSkies2020 - I'm interested in the By Terry Baume de rose if there's anything you fancy from my list? No worries if not!

CointreauVersial · 03/01/2020 21:00

@BlueSkies2020, would be interested in the following:

  • Pat McGrath luxetrance nude lipstick in Valletta
  • Shiseido Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate 10ml
  • Mimitika 50 spf 10ml
  • Experimental perfume club Amber Iris

Unfortunately my swaps list is a bit rubbish (see previous page), so will not be offended if you tell me if there's nothing to entice you!

Ripasso · 03/01/2020 23:28

@Pomegranatepompom would you be interested in swapping the Another 13 perfume for the other perfume in this years Liberty calendar? I sprayed it twice to try it but it is not for me. I also tried the orchid oil once but do not think it suits me if that would be of interest?

BlueSkies2020 · 03/01/2020 23:45

@Pomegranatepompom have PMd you x

@ColaPip Items I like from your list are the Queen of Hungary Mist and Byredo rose hand wash

@CointreauVersial I would like the Opi nail varnish if it’s red? Could swap for the Mimi SPF cream?

ColaPip · 04/01/2020 09:01

@BlueSkies2020 - great, fancy swapping your Pat McGrath lipstick and the By Terry Baume de Rose for the Omorovicza Mist and Byredo Handwash?

Ripasso · 04/01/2020 10:28

Late to this but might be of interest.

Swaps I have from this years and last years Liberty calendar:

Herbivore orchid face oil (used once)
Vilhelm Peony Couture (sprayed twice)
Bobbi brown lip gloss crystal 15 ml unopened
Dr Sevagh serum repair hyaluronuc acid 20ml unused
Skin laundry wrinkle release sheet mask unopened
Aromatherapy associates clear mind roller ball unused

I also have a pixi rose tonic 100ml and 50ml molten brown pink pepperpod body wash from gift with purchases. Both unopened.

@ColaPip I would like to just swap the lip baum for the mist if that’s ok x

BlueSkies2020 · 04/01/2020 11:10

@Ripasso I would love the Dr Sevagh serum repair hyaluronuc acid - is there anything on my list you fancy?

Butterymuffin · 04/01/2020 11:20

@Ripasso I would like the Pixi rose tonic. Is there anything on my list you'd be interested in? It's back up thread but I'll try and do an updated version.

If anyone has a Stila caramello they don't want from the M&S catalogue, I'd be interested. I have fortunately been able to get one already in a swap and it's just my thing. I saw a few posts from people saying they didn't like it.

Pomegranatepompom · 04/01/2020 11:49

@ripasso I’d happily swap last year’s perfume for the orchid oil.
I think I’d like your perfume too if that’s ok? I’ve got 2 of the Another 13 perfumes, I’ve had a few more squirts out of the other bottle - I’d say more than 3/4 in it. Does that seem ok?

Pomegranatepompom · 04/01/2020 12:00

@BlueSkies2020 I’m interested in you face oil, Davines hair mask and the Tisserand oils. Let me know what you would like in return.

Thanks everyone for doing this and thanks for starting the thread OP. It has been great to swap things I might not have used for things I can get a bit more excited about!

Ripasso · 04/01/2020 12:22

@Pomegranatepompom that works for me. I will pm you with my address later today and post on Monday. Thank you.

@ BlueSkies2020 and @ Butterymuffin I will look at your lists later as I’m heading out now.

Writersblock2 · 04/01/2020 15:37

Glad everyone is having fun! I’ve got to do my list yet. I reckon we should keep going - no need to limit it to advent calendars, if you want to swap other small beauty items (or big ones for that matter!).

ColaPip · 04/01/2020 17:24

BunnytheBlueWhale · 04/01/2020 19:17

What is the nail file like @mammmamia? Do you have a pic?
