M&S Summer Beauty Box

[DobbyTheHouseElk]

I have really enjoyed the summer beauty box from M&S in previous years. I can’t remember when they launch them, do we think they will offer one this year?

Mine arrived today. I bought some baby clothes for a friend’s newborn, so this was a real bargain at £15. The only thing I won’t use is the eyeliner (I’m crap at it) - I will probably use the lipgloss over lipstick to give a bit of sparkle and shine, I would never have bought it. I will absolutely use all of the other products - I am particularly pleased with the shampoo and conditioner, facial moisturiser, Nuxe sunscreen, ren toner and perfume. I do like m and a for very cheap summer perfumes - such good value and the 10cl size is perfect. I had four in a pack at Christmas for about £15 with 20% off and they’re all lovely.

Mine has finally arrived. Got stuck at a Royal Mail sorting Office for a long time.

I love it. It’s the best one so far. Even like it better than the advent calendars. Full sizes as well.

I’m hoping to get one of these once they’re back in stock this week. Does anyone know if they are the sort of thing, much like Tesco slots and National Trust tickets, where you would benefit from staying up til midnight for them to be released?! Or is it all a bit more sensible than that?

I’ve honestly never known them to be sold out in a day. Usually they are around for a while. Maybe they were testing the mood to start with. After all we aren’t going on hols anytime soon. But I think they are a great pick me up. Keep checking in. Doubt you need to stay up til midnight or anything,

I used the shampoo and conditioner and both are lovely. Shampoo is sulphate free and conditioner is rich but not heavy. I’m spraying the perfume all day as it is so light and not much staying power but more than happy with it as a freebie. Moisturiser is nice and light, which I like, will need to use it for a couple of weeks to know if I’d repurchase. It’s large though, so I’d use it on my neck and chest if it isn’t right for my face.

Such a bargain for £15. I’ve bought lots of these and I’ve never been unhappy as I think they’re a great way to try brands I’d never have bought. But I’m really very happy this time round.

Placemarking to remind myself to keep checking for availability. I need to think about what I can reasonably justify buying though...I’m sure the DC need underwear and pjs.

Thanks @DobbyTheHouseElk, I really didn’t fancy staying up til midnight!

Oh are they sold out, glad I decided to take the plunge earlier I normally don’t bother but fancied a treat and trying so new products.

Me too! I bought it the day it was released and it was so exciting receiving it. A lovely pink see through cosmetics bag too. I love a good cosmetics make up or products bag! Have so far only sampled the Luxe spf50 for face. It was too greasy 🤨. Trying for 2nd time today. Just washed my face and masked.

I'm really liking the hair oil, then moisturiser, and the Nuxe sunscreen. The bag is great too.

Back in stock now

Out of stock!

Looks like I’ve missed out again! Showing as out of stock already

Arrrgh! Have been waiting up refreshing the page and have missed it 🤦‍♀️🥺

Back in stock!

In stock again now. My carefully saved basket stuff had gone out of stock overnight, cue panic pyjama-buying!

I've just ordered mine Good excuse to buy some lovely new bedding too

Just ordered mine - hurrah!

Ordered mine! So happy.

Ordered mine now. Also had to panic choose a few things as stuff in my saved basket has gone out of stock.

Just ordered mine! I missed the boat 2 weeks ago and having read all the positive comments on here didn't want to leave it until later today. I've ordered Prai throat and decollete cream as I know I like it from previous Advent calenders.

I’ve ordered one, I’d put a body lotion, a vest top and a blouse type top in my basket yesterday, blouse was on offer at £17, this morning it was back at £25 .

I think it’s the best summer box/bag yet.

I love the lip gloss. The pure day cream I use anyway so it’s worth it for that alone.

I’m looking forward to trying the different products, I really enjoy the advent calendar, I end up trying things I’d not usually buy.

I didn't get the 2019 Advent calendar because I couldn't afford it at the time even though I know it's good value. I really missed being part of the daily thread.
This is the first time I've treated myself for months so I'm really looking forward to receiving it.

It’s advertised on their instagram. It’s £15 when you spend £25 in store. It claims to be worn £110.

From the photo it looks like a Nuxe sun cream, M&S sun cream, two WOW hair products, Percy and Reid hair oil, a REN body wash, a Pixi make up pencil (can’t tell if it’s eyeliner, eyebrow pencil or lipliner), a concealer I think, and a small perfume.

I can’t attach a photo as it’s not working for some reason!
