Beauty Advent Calendars 2020 - Part 2

[Housewife2010]

Best time of the beauty year.

I think postal services charge duty on delivery, you have to pay it in order to collect it unless they ship form eu. And they charge on full value, not on cost

I hope I am wrong! There is amarican workout gear brand I like and duty are pain

Mac calendar won't let me use the WELCOME20 code as new customer for 20% off. So frustrating as that's a massive saving.

Holding off for some sort of code.

@EatPrayYoga I think they start 25th December. Not sure though but I will start to open my 12 day Origins calendar then.

I have the Dr Hauschka beauty advent calender which is my 1st beauty advent calender, looking forward to being able to open it and try everything!

Bodyshop calendars are back in stock if anyone is interested

Eek! Hope it doesn't come from the States...although as it is my husband's present to me he can pay it.

My Look Fantastic has been dispatched!
Let’s see when it comes!!

LF has arrived!

Latest update from LF:

Due to the high demand of the product, the dispatch process of the Advent Calendars began on the 12th October and I can only apologise for the delay that you have experienced, however it should be with you before the festive month!

It's gone from it will be on your doorstep way ahead of December 1st! to it should be with you before the festive month

The whole point of an advent calendar is that you start opening on Dec 1st.

Any suggestions for a calendar for a wanna be teen. My DD loves all things girlie obviously don't want to get her expensive beauty one but any suggestions are gratefully received

Ochon I think I would be wanting a discount or something if it's not here by 1 December!

What has occurred to me is that I get emails from them just about every day trying to encourage me to buy more from them but they clearly can't handle the orders they have already got!

I'd say I have 2 chances of getting a discount.

Ochon 😂😂

Mine is still not here btw

And yours was dispatched ages ago. Hope it arrives soon.

I have created a swap thread

I have given in and ordered the mini Asos one for DD. Really hope she likes it.

Thanks for the swap thread @EatPrayYoga - I think I'm the only person who loves Omorovcza mist and swears by Deep Sleep spray so I'm off to check out the last Space NK GWP to see what I can woo people with!

Yes! I’m getting so many emails from them.

Mine should be arriving tomorrow or the day after.

I ordered this one for my daughter; going to disperse the products into a nice box I already have from previous years with a few other girly bits.

Hi all
I went looking for a No.7 beauty calendar for my mum but now realise I am waaaay to late.

I don't do them myself so didn't know that it would go so quickly. I'm a bit out of my depth so need all your expert advice.

My mum is in a nursing home with quite a few advanced health issues so I would like to get her a treat to pick her up every day. But she wouldn't get any use out of make up or nail polish as I can't go in to help her with that at the moment. But she can still use shower gel, shampoo, moisturiser and hand cream. And if there were a few wee bits and bobs she wouldn't use she wouldn't mind. I got her the no7 a few years ago and she really liked it. She also quite likes Sanctuary. I can't really afford the really high end ones.

Does anyone know of anything that might be suitable that is still in stock?

@Breathmiller what about l'occitane calendar? They are still around

@breathmiller I think the ASOS one may still be about, iirc it was mostly skincare and not too spendy

20% off too so £75=£60

Ooooh thank you soooo much. It is perfect, the only thing she might not manage is the haor or face mask but everything else is great.
I've ordered it for her.
Mumsnet is brilliant.
