Can’t believe the Liberty calendar is already available for pre-order. I’m going to need to get my spreadsheets out again!

It feels stupidly early to do so, but should we start a 2023 beauty advent calendar thread where we agree we can have spoilers and discuss contents etc as in previous years?

Reinventinganna · 23/07/2023 00:08

Ooh I like it! I do have some of it but it’s things that I like.

Yes. I think it's time. I remember your spreadsheet last year- was ace!

PomRuns · 23/07/2023 00:09

Yes please @AprilLady
its early this year so even more need for spreed sheets imo

Bit disappointed to be honest . It is good they are mixing it up but quite a few small sizes still and lots I have already tried or own already. Think it will be a no from me too. Love the box though. I guess it depends what you already have and what you are looking for. Can’t believe they are still giving us Augustus Bader though!

Even worse - Barbara is back!

PomRuns · 23/07/2023 00:14

Not all excited by Liberty. Pleased I spent all my credit on the recent kits.
now hopeful for fortnums and John Lewis.

PomRuns · 23/07/2023 00:15

Sorry re lack of capitals - had gin.

BurningTheToast · 23/07/2023 00:21

The Liberty calendar is a nope from me. Too many repeats, a hair clip….

I’ll stick with the Beauty Drop and save my credit for a GWP or jewellery in the January sales.

Reinventinganna · 23/07/2023 00:26

@BurningTheToast those hair clips are ace though. I have one and it’s pretty!

MidnightMeltdown · 23/07/2023 00:51

Never mind Augustinus Bader and Barbara Sturm, it's got another sodding roller ball in it! 😫

I think that I'll probably give it a miss this year

MavisMcMinty · 23/07/2023 01:46

‘Tis pretty though, and I’m drawn more to the <avoids spoilers x3> than the rest of it.

I see they did a fragrance 12-day calendar last year. And a jewellery calendar!

Don’t know yet if I want the Liberty AC. My credit may be better spent on an amazing GWP. Or just keep building it up and go wild next year.

Toomanylosthours · 23/07/2023 07:50

I'm pretty excited, there's many products I already use in there which isn't a bad thing, travel size products are always handy for me. The rollerball, soap bar, candle and hand cream are disappointing. I have enough unused candles and handcreams to open a small boutique

PacificState · 23/07/2023 07:50

Ooh I think that looks good. Sadly over-excited about some of the non-standard items. Feeling pretty good about my decision to store up my beauty drop credits!

Peridot1 · 23/07/2023 08:11

Can’t believe advent calendar details are available already! Although it does feel like winter!

I joined the Beauty Drop purely for the calendar and whilst some of the items are a bit uninspiring I think I’ll be happy enough with it. Although I’ll weigh it up a bit more closer to the time I think.

I shouldn’t get a calendar at all really though as I have soooo much stuff! So I may be sensible and treat myself to a bag or some jewellery in the sale after Christmas.

BUT I love opening an advent calendar through December and reading the threads on here.

It’s a dilemma!

Stoic123 · 23/07/2023 08:33

Apologies to those not expecting advent chat on here - new thread for all things advent.

Pinenu · 23/07/2023 08:54

I signed up for BD with the intention of buying the AC but I’m afraid it’s a big nope from me. I’m not in the slightest bit tempted by its contents.

I might treat myself to a nice dress or some earrings instead.

notanicepersonapparently · 23/07/2023 09:01

@AprilLady your spreadsheet was fab last year. I hope you can share one with us again. At first glance I’m not sure the Liberty one looks that good. It’s actually only the Poets of Berlin that got my interest.

spuddel · 23/07/2023 10:07

Don't fancy that Liberty AC at all, way too many things I already have and not a lot of newness. As others said, the GWP seem far more appealing, or even the kits.

SpongeBobJudgeyPants · 23/07/2023 10:55

@Countmeout thanks for the link. Overall, I don't think I'm inspired to have the F & M or the Liberty 23 which it links to. Not enough stuff in it, though I did like the little liberty mirror, but it isn't available instore, so presumably didn't sell that well. I quite liked the little bracelet, but that's only 18 quid on Amazon, and doesn't get high reviews!

LemonJuiceFromConcentrate · 23/07/2023 11:09

All of you saying things about the Liberty advent contents: that’s not the contents for this coming year. That’s a list of what was in it last year. It says as much on the linked page.

It’s just meant to be representative, to give people a sense of the type of thing to expect.

They will still be sorting out precisely what to put in this year’s.

Stoic123 · 23/07/2023 11:14

@LemonJuiceFromConcentrate - they've removed the contents list. Last night/this morning had the full list and said was 2023 contents. Interesting.

LemonJuiceFromConcentrate · 23/07/2023 11:20

@Stoic123 ah I see! Thanks. I was quite confused when I clicked through! Huh that’s so odd. And I guess I’m wrong about them still sorting it out, apologies.

They might still be sorting - hence the withdrawl. Will be interesting to 'spot the difference' when officially released.

SpongeBobJudgeyPants · 23/07/2023 11:33

Lemon Juice. The one I saw this morning definitely wasn't last years, as I had it.
