I think you have to be some kind of special member to see it; I can't either, Teatime

OchonAgusOchonO · 30/10/2020 16:47

Oh good. There are a couple of products I'm not interested in but dd would definitely take them.

Housewife2010 · 30/10/2020 17:07

The Kiko advent is £40. www.beautyqueenuk.co.uk/2020/10/kiko-holiday-gems-advent-calendar-2020.html?m=1

TeatimeAtCloppa · 30/10/2020 17:29

Ah I see. Thanks Marvelous. It's probably a good thing!😂

EatPrayYoga · 30/10/2020 17:31

Teatime it comes up when I click on the JL email. Free with £100 spend i think. Are you a JL member? If not I might be able to post the link but not sure if you need an account to buy it.

Ochon The Elle one was my other choice and it honestly only went for LF as I liked them equally but that was a bit cheaper.

OchonAgusOchonO · 30/10/2020 17:52

@EatPrayYoga - my dd would benefit a bit more from the Elle one than LF, but overall, I think it still looks good.

I'll give it a few more days and then decide.

TeatimeAtCloppa · 30/10/2020 18:10

Thank you so much EatPray! I went on to have a look and although I have an account I wasn't signed up to receive emails. So I did that but when I went to sign in again, the site said they were experiencing problems and to try later. Thank you so much again!!🥰

EatPrayYoga · 30/10/2020 18:25

Teatime There does seem to be an issue. I can get onto it through the link but not sure whether it has sold out or not available yet as I cannot see an option to add to basket Hmm Not that I have decided yet that I will buy it

TeatimeAtCloppa · 30/10/2020 18:50

Every time I sign in the page says they're experiencing problems with no signal. I will go on later tonight and have a wee look. It's like a compulsion with me to look at every GWP and go through them with a fine tooth comb!😂

EatPrayYoga · 30/10/2020 19:12

Teatime I think it's got a few good things in it and I like that you only have to spend £100

TeatimeAtCloppa · 30/10/2020 20:00

Yes, that's decent and could easily be totted up with things. Some of the qualifying spends are just too much but £100 is ok!

Housewife2010 · 30/10/2020 20:41

I was tempted this morning by the John Lewis GWP but I was put off because most of the items are so tiny.

Pomegranatespompom · 30/10/2020 21:56

Agree @Housewife2010 I might get if can justify by purchasing Christmas gifts.
I got the Dior Beauty box a couple of months ago and the sizes were really disappointing.

YellowBeryl1 · 30/10/2020 22:37

@TeatimeAtCloppa you just need to login to your JL account. I may have ordered one this evening Wink its free when you spend £100.

TeatimeAtCloppa · 31/10/2020 07:13

Lol Yellow I feel quite envious!😂 For some reason when I log in I get a No Signal page. I was hoping it would be fixed this morning but I am still getting it.

EatPrayYoga · 31/10/2020 07:15

Ah yes that's why I couldn't add it to my bag. You only get that option once you log in.

EatPrayYoga · 31/10/2020 07:16

Ah that's strange Teatime Are you outside the UK? Can you call JL CS?

EatPrayYoga · 31/10/2020 07:18

Looking at it again, I don't actually think the JL gift is worth spending £100 for

TeatimeAtCloppa · 31/10/2020 08:09

I'm in NI EatPray so it should be ok. I will wait to see if it rights itself for another few hours and then contact them. I have some children's pyjamas and other wee things for Christmas in my basket so would like to check out soon before they go out of stock.

Ponks · 31/10/2020 08:55

The JL beauty box is just tiny sizes , but I remembered I had a JL voucher, and there was a beauty gift set I was considering anyway... so I've ordered it and got the box 😊.

diamondsandrose · 31/10/2020 09:58

Was swithering about the JL advent so the box might just push me to it !

marveloustimeruiningeverything · 31/10/2020 10:46

I still can't find a link to the JL beauty glow box ... anyone have one?

marveloustimeruiningeverything · 31/10/2020 11:01

Never mind ... found it ... was rather hoping I could buy some non beauty items to top up the purchase requirement. Oh well.

diamondsandrose · 31/10/2020 11:39

Hmmm re JL advent / winter glow

There are 13 items in the glow freebie so I was wondering if I could get my daughter to add them in to the JL advent it would be a kind of mega one where every 2nd day you got 2 things! Or do half a Jadvent?

37 items for £150 just over £4 per item... some better than others... decisions

Or do I wait it out and hope for a Black Friday discount on another one. Already have Rituals ( £60 one) but will share with DD15. But want a more mixed skin/makeup one. Help me decide !

ShortSilence · 31/10/2020 11:57

Dangerous thread! I absolutely thought I’d ruled out an advent but now I’m not so sure.

Since innocently clicking on here the other day I’ve gone for the Cult GWP and the JL winter box; and I have last year’s really pretty set of 12 mini Diptyque pine candles, bought in the summer sales. That should be more than enough. Hmm

Anyway, this has all inspired me to start breaking into things I hadn’t yet used from Liberty and Cult spring GWPs and there are some lovely products ... so, thank you (I think)
