Boots No7 is open to pre sale customers, got an email.

MiaN · 14/10/2020 06:06

There are few reports for cult beauty advent that the item in number 19 arrived damaged.

Popcornismandatory · 14/10/2020 08:02

Just ordered Boots No7 and it should arrive by Saturday Smile

Coniferhedge · 14/10/2020 08:15

I’ve just ordered Boots No7 calendar. Paid for with Advantage points so hasn’t cost me anything so I’m happy!

ShrimpSymphony · 14/10/2020 08:30

Me too @Coniferhedge. I didn’t order it last year and regretted it

Mummyonline · 14/10/2020 08:53

@SymphonyofShadows please let me know which mixed box you got from The Perfume Society?

OchonAgusOchonO · 14/10/2020 08:56

What you others think of the beauty bag from Feelunique (I assume it's OK to discuss as it's not an AC)?

Overall, I'm very pleased with it but the tinted lip oil is the most awful colour. It might work a bit better on my dd.

Gotthetshirt23 · 14/10/2020 09:05

Is the Boots one good ? I've never had one but they seem popular?

tellmewhentheLangshiplandscoz · 14/10/2020 09:59

Ochon I'm wrapping mine for Christmas so trying not to look but can you tell me how many items there should be please? I'm going to ask DH to count for me to make sure it's all there.

DD did have a look through when she got home from school to several "Oooh, hopefully I'll get that!" type comments so it's pre teen approved Grin They're like vultures with stuff like this!

Sorry about mentioning the item above.

There are 10 items in it. All bar the one I mentioned above, I'm very happy with. One of the items is a completely new type of product to me and I'm really excited to try it out but I know my dd20 would love it so I may lose it yet.

tellmewhentheLangshiplandscoz · 14/10/2020 11:36

Thank you ochon (no apology needed either) I'll let him know Grin

SymphonyofShadows · 14/10/2020 11:44

Mummyonline it was the box of treats discovery box.

I’ve decided I’m going to make my Dsis a beauty hamper for Christmas with some of the bits from my boxes and add some nice perfume. Makes me feel a bit less horrified with myself Grin

EatPrayYoga · 14/10/2020 12:10

@Gotthetshirt23 The Boots no 7 or the Macmillan Boots one? The no 7 one is usually popular. The Macmillan Boots one is a fairly good budget all rounder and on offer atm. You can see what's in it online

Crayolo · 14/10/2020 12:47

I got the no7 one for my mum, she had it last year and it was really impressive, aside from the vouchers instead of products in some doors (haven't looked at the contents this year though!).

FredaFox · 14/10/2020 14:56

Yes I got the feel unique beauty bag, it’s brilliant!

MiaN · 14/10/2020 16:28

It's safe to say as Irish buyer I will never order anything from LIberty again. What a headache and poor or not existing customer service.

I have purchased items form Selfridges, John Lewis, Harvey Nichols, others like Space NK and Cult beauty and did not expect such hassle, I never had any bad experience.
I asked to cancel it and they said they can't as it's shipped. I asked to give me tracking reference and they are saying its going to be shipped soon and the postage will be post, but when I ordered it was selected to be express courier. And if I email asking something I get response days later so it's not like you communicate with someone who responds on time

marveloustimeruiningeverything · 14/10/2020 16:30

My Fenwick calendar and free beauty bag arrived today! Grin

stepmotherofone · 14/10/2020 17:33

My CB still hasn’t arrived. I’ve never had any issues with Hermes before so typically it had to happen with the sold out item I’ve wanted for months!

covidmonkey · 14/10/2020 19:00

Also Kiehl has advent calendar

ruthieness · 14/10/2020 19:40

Holland and barratt is sold out online!

EatPrayYoga · 14/10/2020 19:40

I feel like this thread is a load of separate conversations Grin

ajandjjmum · 14/10/2020 20:13

Can I show my ignorance? Grin

Kiehl is for men?

Housewife2010 · 14/10/2020 20:37

Kiehl's is for everyone.
