Beauty Advent Calendars 2020 - Part 2

[Housewife2010]

Best time of the beauty year.

chillibean you can see what is in the GWP on HN website

I hope you all get the Liberty calendar who want it!

@ajandjjmum

In the interests of research for this thread, I have just ordered the Liberty calendar, which I absolutely don't need (want, maybe!) I'll let you know if it's cancelled.

I managed to order the Liberty one at 11.45pm last night, no cancellation email so far so fingers crossed

There's a lot of chatter on the Liberty Facebook page, it looks like a system glitch saying orders are cancelled.

My order was cancelled. I've tried again...I really hope I don't end up with two!

So I tried Feel Unique again and the beauty bag is back in, woo hoo! This has made my day!
Thanks to ithink for code, YAH20 worked. Plus I was able to change my brand for life to Lumene so saved a bit there too. And all my other bits I got to make the minimum spend were a) things I need/already use and b) often already reduced. Happy, happy days.

Still think I'm going to get FOMI with Cult Beauty but I've got two calendars with my H&B one so I need to step away from this damn thread. You lot are a bad, bad influence but the most amazing enablers too

I just got an email from feelunique saying my delivery will be delayed

Long term lurker here! I’ve taken the plunge and ordered my first Liberty calendar. I’m now frantically checking my emails to see if it’s been cancelled!

I've ordered the Liberty one. Every year I lust over it, but decide it's too expensive. This year however has been awful and i need a bit of pampering!

Shall we sit on each other’s hands next week langshiplands? I’m seriously tempted by the Cult Beauty one too but really cannot justify it given that I’ve ordered 3 ACs .

In an attempt to make room for the new products, I have hand cream, lip balm, a face spritz and scented candle on my home office desk

Any recommendations for a man's one please, and also a teenage boy?

thanks on advance,

haha tellme so so true! I now have three calendars, even if one is "for DD" (who is sensitive to perfumed stuff and doesn't wear make up).

I have spent so much I could've just hit the F&M one....ahhh but now I have calendars for December and January 😍😍

I pre-ordered Look Fantastic a couple of weeks ago . Sitting on my hands now. Liberty & Cult are oh so tempting. Hoping it will sell out quickly and remove the temptation 😂

chloe and clary we may need to! 3 calendars? Wow! Good for you** both! It's been a shit year and we need the treats. Which did you go for?

It's funny because last night when getting cross at myself for missing out on the FU offer I managed to talk myself out of CB. If I'm really honest whist it looks beautiful I think my desire to get it comes from my magpie streak of being suckered in by gorgeous products and packaging. I think I'd use most of it but there are a good few things that I won't and the value of the contents, whilst amazing, is pointless if I won't use them all. I feel this way what I have is slightly less niche, it's still lovely and I've got excellent value too.

Mother oh no! Hopefully you won't be waiting too long. I reckon it's MN users swamping them in the last 24 hours

If anyone is going for F & M and is a Santander customer check your retailer offers before buying if on a card as I had 10% cashback come up on mine this am. Every little helps us justify this splurge!

Aaahh epic bold fail

I'm finished too. I have Liberty (I hope), Elemis and Look Fantastic. That is definitely it for me. Thinking I might open one in January too. I watched a video on the John Lewis one last night and it looks lovely but I'm not caving.

I'm picturing many of us over the next few days waking around muttering to ourselves "must not buy more ACs ... must not buy more ACs" like mad women Good luck all when CB is out, I think we'll need it.

tellme I got LF (£70 with one month of beauty box - which was worth it just fir the Elemis cream), H&B and now Lumene, plus lovely goody bag and several small bits I will use to make it up to £100.

So not too spendy really. I think the LF is great value for the worth of the contents actually, tho of course it's whether you use them!

The double discount didn't work for me - I only got one or the other so went with the special15 one. YAH20 doesn't seem to work on the EU site.

Exact same as me . Except the H&B is for dd.

I ❤️ this thread and you all btw, can't explain any of this to anyone IRL!

ochon H&B is for DD here too (hmmmm)

I guess we'll be seeing a lot of one another on the daily threads. I look forward to it.

I got a call from my bank, the liberty transaction was flagged. All the cancelled orders - are they from outside UK?

I have not received cancellation, they released the transaction but I wonder if this is in any way connected

I ordered bath bond calendar for dd8. It was reduced to £14 at amazon.

I have Origins, bodyshop and H&B. Next year I am going to have LF or similar. This year I have too much samples left from last year.
