Space NK - what to buy?

29 replies

Teaplease29 · 06/03/2021 19:29

If you had a few hundred pounds saved especially to treat yourself - what might you get yourself from Space NK?

I'm looking for something decent to help with blocked pores, I'm 30 something so maybe also something anti-aging. Other than that.. just any luxurious, recommended makeup or skincare treats.
I should say I LOVE the hourglass lighting palettes so might be tempted by one of those.

I spend a bloody fortune at SpaceNK and am a bit of a neophyte, but repeat buys are Dr Dennis Gross acid peel, it's amazing, I really rate it. Sunday Riley facial oils are great too, I like CEO Glow and Luna. By Terry Baume de Rose lip balm is the absolute best, and I always have a REN Moroccan rose bath oil on the go.

Oh, Diptyque do a heavenly smelling body and hair oil, can't remember what it's called though!

ElderMillennial · 06/03/2021 20:37

I love the hourglass palettes.

Nars and Laura Mercier too.

Some of their gadgets might appeal eg hair removal or anti aging.

EasterIssland · 06/03/2021 20:38

Drunk elephant skin care for me
Or diptyque candles

ShrimpSymphony · 06/03/2021 20:43

There is a GWP due later this month I think so I’d hold off any purchases until then.

EasterIssland · 06/03/2021 20:45

If you insert halfoff you get the second item half price

PickleC · 06/03/2021 20:56

Love the Goldfaden MD Doctor's Scrub though go easy on it initially as very different to any other scrubs I've ever tried. And Ren Glycol Lactic Renewal Mask is good as well. The Laura Mercier Caviar Sticks for eyes last ages and good choice of finishes

I spend far too much time on their site

hopeishere · 06/03/2021 22:24

The Dennis Goss stuff is amazing!!

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 06/03/2021 22:40

I could buy everything on their site but my last order was Clean Reserve Sueded Oud perfume it's gorgeous & they do a mini for £20 if you're not sure about shelling out for a full size bottle.
I also got a Nars Laguna bronzer & Nars Orgasm blusher which is a repeat buy for me.
And like Shrimp said there is supposed to be a really good GWP later this month at SpaceNK

Teaplease29 · 07/03/2021 10:11

Ahhh so many great ideas! Thank you all. I'm going to spend my morning looking at all of your recommendations.
Call me silly but what does GWP stand for @ShrimpSymphony and @TracyBeakerSoYeah

And @EasterIssland thanks so much for the code!! is that just for the products you have recommended?

Gwp = gift with purchase

I’m watching this with interest - Loving these recommendations!

I recently ordered for the first time and got Drunk Elephant Babyfacial and a couple of the Aromatherapy Associates bath/shower oils (Deep Relax and Forest Therapy) as well as the selection box to try different ones.

Happy shopping OP! Smile

ShrikeAttack · 07/03/2021 10:47

Oh yes Clean Reserve scents are lovely, I've got Sueded Ood, Sel Santal and Smoked Vetiver.

Like other posters, I've got a basket of stuff waiting for gwp to check out. You should join their Indulge incentive programme too, you get really decent rewards and a present on your birthday!

Offredismysister · 07/03/2021 14:10

The GWP is out tomorrow! I’ve had an email from really ree. There are some repeats from the advent calendar, mini NARS Laguna I’m looking at you! But overall it looks good. I’ve got some foundation, a byredo perfume & a mini Diptyque candle in my basket ready.

ShrikeAttack · 07/03/2021 14:13

Brilliant, thanks Offred, I've not had an email yet.

icelollycraving · 07/03/2021 14:14

Oh what is the spend on the GWP?
I prefer one big freebie than lots of small sizes. I imagine there will be some good offers as it is almost end of financial year.

Chronicallymothering · 07/03/2021 14:15

Oskia super 16 serum and the brightening enzyme mask from Oskia too.

Offredismysister · 07/03/2021 14:20

It’s a £175 spend.
I had the advent calendar & I sold items I knew I’d never use on eBay, so I guess I’ll do the same with this. I do still have a full REN AHA tonic & a Barbara Sturm Serum.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 07/03/2021 15:53

Tempted but there's nothing I really need right now & there's nothing that really grabs me in the GWP & I have a few of the products anyway.

doadeer · 07/03/2021 16:34

I love Oskia Vitamin C capsules. And their renaissance mask

Sunday Riley nighttime oils and facial oils are lovely.

I'm a fan of Herbivore, I love the blue mansy resurfacing mask.

If they sell medik8, Crystal Retinol 3 is great.

TheChosenTwo · 07/03/2021 16:45

Have been waiting for this GWP but I think it’s the worst one I’ve seen! Hardly nothing ‘new’ - I’ve had/tried nearly everything and I’m hardly a hardcore beauty junkie, I get one advent calendar a year and buy a few times throughout the year. I would also prefer fewer tiny things and just one or two bigger things. The thing with all the samples and small things is the waste and excess packaging - atrocious!
However.... I had a basket ready with allies of skin vitamin c, the mandelic skin pigmentation thing (which is currently out of stock anyway) and a retinol.
I’ll wait until everything I need is in stock.

PhoenixandtheRug · 07/03/2021 16:47

Sarah Chapman Platinum Stem Cell Elixir is the BUSINESS! I love it...you really don't need any other serum with it. I have noticed a massive difference in tone, lift and complexion since I started using it.

Teaplease29 · 07/03/2021 18:34

Ohhh this is exciting! Does anyone have any idea on how long the GWP is likely to run for? Do they sell out really quickly?

Stokey · 07/03/2021 18:53

@EasterIssland which Drunken elephant do you recommend? I think I had a couple of samples of their retinol but wasn't sure.

EasterIssland · 07/03/2021 19:16

[quote Stokey]@EasterIssland which Drunken elephant do you recommend? I think I had a couple of samples of their retinol but wasn't sure.[/quote]
I can’t have the retinol as I’m breastfeeding I like protini / TLC framboose and f-balm
Marula is quite good as well

They also speak good things about a baby facial but again I can’t have cuz of bfing

Teaplease29 · 07/03/2021 19:49

I'm also breastfeeding! Can anyone recommend a good anti age eye cream without retinol? Xx
