Beauty Advent Calendars 2023 Part D- waiting till December?

[Stoic123]

Or will you start opening in November?

Either way, it's not long now......time to make your choice (s).

Continuing the thread.

"This is a thread to discuss the buying of beauty calendars and not the opening of them. There may be general discussion about contents of a calendar but please do not share information about what is behind a specific door you've opened. Thank you"

Sephora update: They have sent me the missing items! There are nine things in the box so I assume two of the days were double items but obviously I have no idea which ones. I am going to attempt to fill the boxes tonight without looking at what’s actually going in to preserve some sort of surprise. And It’s getting relegated to Jadvent because I’m still way too cross about the whole thing to enjoy opening it in December.

Accessorize have 50% off their jewelry advents. Could be a nice gift for a teen.

I see Cult Beauty is now down to £200 from £225

Phew @Talisin! So glad to hear you've had a result.
So annoying that you had to go through all this though, I can totally understand how it took the shine of the original anticipation.
Imagine if this was gifted to someone? you wouldn't think to check first, it would be embarrassing on top of everything else.

When is this Black Friday Friday?! Not today?
I woke up with great anticipation and checked LiB, no discount. Didn't bother with other websites. I shouldn't look at anything but I rather like this AC chasing activity.

Black Friday is next Friday (24th)

Thank you @pinkchampagne1

No idea why I'm still looking but I can't help it.

Same here! I am opening the OK calendar at the moment, have JL for December and Fenwick for after Christmas. I also have the free beauty box that came with the Fenwick calendar and the Boots beauty box. I don’t need any more calendars or beauty bits but if there is a really good offer I know I could be persuaded! 😆

It’s more “Black Friday Week” these days!

Thanks for the Accessorize heads-up @Talisin. I may get it and split it between the DDs homemade ones. Although they're bound to disagree about who gets what! DD1 has pierced ears and DD2 is getting them pierced for Christmas.

I still think it's not worth it, unfortunately. CB (and Liberty) really missed the mark this year when a few others at the same price point upped their game. I think it would need to be another £50 off.

Cult Beauty is currently offering a 25% discount

Think it's 25% off a few brands, and £25 off the advent. 25% off Biossance when I just bought that from Space NK... typical!

I believe there is a code for a 20% discount applicable to the entire site.

Which Venn cream specifically is it that so many people like?

It's the Venn Anti-Aging All in One Concentrate. It appeared in the Liberty calendar back in 2020 (I think!) and was hugely popular.

Thank you @Giftwithpurchase !

Just an FYI for anyone hoping the Vogue calendar will get reduced...an ad for it popped up on my Instagram and it said "Excluded from Black Friday deals".

My Vogue calendar arrived yesterday. The box says 200/5200. I did order quite late, only a few weeks ago. The production date is September. I would assume they only had/have 5200 to sell.

My vogue is due to arrive today and I'm beyond excited!

Is Jo Malone ever reduced does anyone know? It's the only one I would love to have but it's way beyond my budget.

That’s interesting 5200 calendars at £350 is £1,820,000, so donating £75,000 is 4% of that.

I wonder what order they are sending them out because I purchased long after Holly.
Definitely 5200 or maybe more if done in batches

Look Fantastic have a Flash Sale on - 25% with code FLASH. Included the MAC AC, which brings it down to £127.50 from RRP of £170, plus you get a free ESPA gift worth £85.

I recycled my Vogue box, wish I’d kept it now so I could have checked 🙂
