Beauty Advent Calendars 2020 part 3

[Butterymuffin]

The hunt continues! We await Black Friday developments.

Amazon Treasure truck doesn't deliver to my area but I've signed up to it for when it does. FOMO
My DD would like the Amazon AC but I won't be getting it for her.

Hi @Stokey

I don't know if it's still available, but I sent my son the Next men's grooming one and he was very pleased with it.

@Stokey I second the Next one. Got it last year and have bought it again. If it's gone the Asos one looked decent.

I think someone said the Treasure Truck is online now.

@TeatimeAtCloppa the degustabox advent has arrived, it came with a little contents booklet and I'm really impressed. It's huge too!

@EatPrayYoga

I think someone said the Treasure Truck is online now.

So seems a bit odd that it's only available in certain areas then?

Looks like Ryan will be getting a few kissy hearts from me. My calendar has been dispatched

Fingers crossed for everyone else waiting. Go harass them on twitter if you haven't done so already.

The calendar is currently in Wroclaw. I'm a bit geographically challenged but that sounds like Poland?

@OchonAgusOchonO

Mine has been despatched today from Poland too.

I'm in Ireland and my arrival date is 2-3 December! So annoying!!

I'm only after seeing the expected delivery date now. I was so excited I hadn't noticed.

I'm in Ireland too, so same date. I'm off to give out to Ryan.

Oh bugger! I bought John Lewis calendar last year for half price in the Black Friday sale and was hoping to do the same again this year. And now it says sold out online

Hoping they've got some locked up in the stores.

Yes, the Black Friday pickings will be a lot slimmer this year. Lots of calendars already sold out. I have been successful in waiting but may rue that I did!

@OchonAgusOchonOch and @BuffaloMozzerella 🤞 that your deliveries hurry the festive up!

Thanks @Butterymuffin.

Worst case, we can join the dedicated thread a few days late.

I'm just relived it's on it's way as I didn't trust them after all the different stories I got from them re shipment dates, there not being any more calendars etc?

Mine came from Poland - they shouldn’t take too long.

Thanks re treasure truck. I’m not sure I want to sign up to get texts when I can’t use it yet!

Apparently things are much slower now than a few weeks ago. A spokesperson for our postal service was on the radio today saying they have 130% more parcels each day than they did the same time last year! There's obviously more than me doing all their christmas shopping online at the moment

So long as it's on the move, I'm happy. I don't even mind starting a few days late.

Glossybox offer now on for 48 hours - buy the Grazia advent calendar and get a free November Glossybox thrown in. So both for £115. The code is JUSTFORYOU

I'm new to the thread and to beauty advent calendars. But I treated myself (and DD) to the L'Occitane calendar this year. The calendars are stashed in the top of the wardrobe until 1st December. DD knows I'm getting one for me but thinks she's getting her usual €2 Cadbury's calendar. I decided to have a splurge seeing as we can't do much else this year.

@OchonAgusOchonO I'm now weirdly invested in the progress of your calendar and will have to check daily for updates. Also, your username would appear to be very apt

@Taytocrisps - very apt

You're obviously Irish too. There seems to be a good few of us on here.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned upthread but Glossybox have a Grazia beauty edit box for £45 at the moment

Skinstore advent arrived (Ireland), no duty fees! The box is great, I will use it to store some skincare goodies after.

MiaN, after seeing Cosmetopia’s review and the price reduction, and looking at the products included, I also went for the Skinstore box. Mine is currently “en route” from the US according to the tracking information. Looking forward to getting it. I only wobbled slightly when I realised it is part of the LF group!

That's great.

I fell asleep last night watching Cosmetopia on Youtube and DH got home and ended up watching her unbox two calendars. He was mesmerised!

Fantastic one off beauty box for anyone who still has money left! cewuk.co.uk/product/cew-female-founders-beauty-edit/

There are 20 items so it will almost fill an empty advent calendar if you've missed out a luxury one.
