Ach, I succumbed to the OK AC with a tenner off, making it £85. That’s 3 ACs, and hopefully I’m done now!

Look fantastic are releasing another beauty chest soon . Just watched the unboxing on diary of a beauty geek

LiB AC reduced on tiktok shop. In addition it shows £25off over £100 spend seller voucher and 11% off tiktok voucher.
Total £106.72

Thank you! Just bought mine. I don’t think this years looks quite as good as last, but for that price it is worth it for what I’ll use. Looking forward to trying the Tatcha and the Lumene

I have 3 now and will probably get the M
and S, never had one before, so I’m definitely stopping.
Decided I’ll make a bigger donation to charity this year, ACs are very self-indulgent and it will alleviate some guilt 😀

H3lloMums · 07/10/2023 08:26

I can’t see Liberty ac on TikTok?

Peridot1 · 07/10/2023 08:29

@H3lloMums - I think it’s Latest In Beauty - LiB rather than Liberty

H3lloMums · 07/10/2023 08:39

Oh I see! Thank you - just downloaded Tik Tok for Liberty haha

H3lloMums · 07/10/2023 08:49

So now I’m there I think I want it 🤦‍♀️I can only get LiB down to £118 ? It’s showing as £148 - £30 voucher

Edited

I think the tiktok vouchers changed from 11 to 10% ( they always change, I don't quite understand how). So now it's £117.

I don't know if it's just me, but I can't find the shop on TikTok. I've tried the latest in Beauty - lib but no luck.

Any other tips?!

Don't. I only stated last year for this exact reason. Couldn't understand anything so cloed my account. Opened a new account this autumn especially for LiB (already ordered beauty boxes) but I still don't understand it.

Puravida23 · 07/10/2023 09:55

I’ve just watched the unboxing of LIB it looks really good but I am shocked there are only 24 days!!!! No Xmas day door.
I had last years and I was sure there were 25 then but It was my extra advent so I opened days randomly when I wanted a treat so can’t remember
Anyway@Branster thanks for posting looks like a good deal if you are into skincare/hair care

MidnightMeltdown · 07/10/2023 10:15

@Puravida23 I think that advent calendars are supposed to be 24 days so I've always thought that it was odd when they do 25! Space NK always used to be 24, but recently seemed to have upped to 25 - I guess to complete with others

I picked up LiB on TikTok this morning - thanks @Branster

It's not the most exciting, but lots of useful projects, and at under £5 a drawer, I think it's a really good deal. I probably won't use it as an advent calendar.

CinnamonCoffee · 07/10/2023 10:22

Last years LIB was 100% better but for the price a bargain. I've got it even though 6 products are dod especially the mlm items. Those will be given away. I've worked out the cost of the products I will use and it's coming to £480!

Puravida23 · 07/10/2023 10:23

Yeah I was just surprised they chose to lose a door this year . I checked there were 25 doors last year . It may have something to do with box sizes and box logistics I guess

MidnightMeltdown · 07/10/2023 10:40

@Puravida23 I expect that it may have something to do with cost cutting as they had to reduce it so much last year. I think that they are trying to keep the price down.

Pinenu · 07/10/2023 12:01

Do I want LiB?

I know it’s a bargain for an AC but it’s still £100 odd. I’m not wowed by any of the products but then I wasn’t last year and it ended up as one of my favourite calendars as it was so consistent and everything was useful.

MavisMcMinty · 07/10/2023 12:31

I bought LiB purely because with £25 off plus my LiB Pro discount of 15%, it felt like a bargain!

Liberty also felt like a bargain because with my Beauty Drop credit I only had to pay £100 of “my own” money (and next year hopefully it will be “free”).

Possimpible · 07/10/2023 12:44

@Pinenu I asked myself the same question, but no I don't this year. Pretty much regardless of discount, I just don't want the contents and it would be wasteful. Last year's was great but this year's just isn't comparable IMO

monpetitlapin · 07/10/2023 19:02

Hi all, can I join? Think I'm a bit late to the thread, I just started a thread yesterday about beauty advent calendars and someone linked to this one. I've got my eye on Clarins, Anthropologie, or a (massive splurge) Elemis calendar.

Belindabelle · 07/10/2023 20:07

Any thoughts on the Harvey Nichols ac? I didn’t buy one last year (not even M&S) so feel like splashing out.
