Beauty Advent Calendars 2020 part 3

[Butterymuffin]

The hunt continues! We await Black Friday developments.

@XmasLockdown

Amazon advent calendar is currently unavailable. Not sure if it comes back.

Is there any calendars left?

Elle is still around. Feelunique seem to still have a fair few, but nothing terribly exciting. The Lumene one is available on Lumene.com.

The Rituals calendar is still available at Boots

@BuffaloMozzerella - has your calendar been collected by UPS yet? Mine is still showing as unrecognised tracking number so I assume it's still waiting in Landmark Global's warehouse to be picked up by UPS.

I can't find the ritual calender in stock in any branches in Yorkshire.

Nope, no updates since last Thursday.

Started my own thread and was pointed in this direction.

Had no idea it was such a popular thing and so many sold out. But as per username I’m clueless about this stuff

So maybe I’ve left it too late?

I’m hoping to order online and have delivered to recipient a 20 yr old woman, she’s more make up rather than skin care oriented, she’s indicated an interest in morphe but beyond that and her being very good at the modern style of make up (contouring, bright colours etc) I am totally clueless

Budget £50-75 ish? I realise that’s quite limiting.

But if possible I would like to do this.

Can you guys help? I hope so

@SnBDunce

There's this from Debenhams though I have no experience of the brand.

20% off atm

Hi @SnBDunce I looked at the Ted Baker one for my niece in Boots. I think it was £40 and at the time had £10 in points on offer too. Boots often discount so it's worth a look online? It looked quite luxurious for the price and think it had beauty as well as body care.
I always check these threads out for ideas and also look at the Really Ree website for the top calendars reviewed each year.
Sadly I think most will be sold out - you have to get in quick!
One other thought if she likes make up...are M&S still doing their Xmas beauty box? It was too 'make up y' for me this year but might be good for her? £20 w purchase I think.
A beauty box might be a good shout if you can't get a calendar. Good luck!

I've just looked at M&S. They have a 12 days of beauty calendar half price at £35 from £70. It's autograph makeup. Looks really good, she might like that and it's a bargain for you?!

This feels like the place to have a general LF whinge. They have one product I’d like but only with a decent reduction - not desperate for it. They email me daily to offer me 20% off (not enough) but then every 3/4 days tell me they have a secret code or a flash code etc. But every time I’m suckered into looking it’s just 20 bloody percent! Yesterday they had a SECRET code and were offering 20% on the site with free P&P so I thought it really had to be a bigger discount but no, just 20% again. I am ignoring them now.

I got a bit annoyed with the LF discount emails trying to tempt me to buy when meanwhile they hadn't sent the advent calendar I'd ordered. They have now but I know some on here are still waiting!

I know mine took 8/9 days to get from Poland to the Royal Mail receiving it.

I’ve unsubscribed from the LF emails now, they were far too frequent.

@carolebaskinfedhimtothetigers - Ours are coming via UPS. They are currently still in the Wroclaw and the UPS tracking number isn't recognised by UPS so presumably still in the distribution warehouse. They are supposed to arrive sometime between thursday and saturday this week.

If there's still no movement by tomorrow, I'll get back on to Ryan.

Same here.

My Neom candles have just arrived from QVC. They smell beautiful. I'm not even going to pretend they're for presents. They're mine, all mine.

Which set did you get Ochon?

I got the Energise set and they smell amazing. Justified it as one is going to be be a gift but the other two are all mine!!!

I got the calm set.

You're much more generous than me

LF have upped it to 22% today. Must be reading.

@Dailyhandtowelwash - LF have upped it to 22% today. Must be reading.

They're really going all out

I currently have Olivia trying to find out why my calendar hasn't yet moved from Wroclaw. It's due between tomorrow and Saturday. I would expect some form of movement by now if it was to arrive on time.

No movement on mine either. It's having a mini-break in Wroclaw 😑

Maybe they are self-isolating pending test results?

Ochon, Buffalo, that is astonishingly poor service from LF.

My Skinstore box arrived today (ordered last Monday, and arrived in perfect condition from the US today). Very pleased with it.

@Dailyhandtowelwash - Maybe they are self-isolating pending test results?

No need for self isolation. They're being delivered by penguin and covid hasn't crossed over to them yet

@AprilLady - that's excellent service. Did you have to pay duty on it?
