Liberty Beauty Drop Subscription Box Spoiler Part 7

[Housewife2010]

Sparkly Strawberry Thief inspired new thread.

IVlove that Fenwicks GWP but it would negate the whole point of my buying ban. Very very tempted though

narrowly avoided the fairly decent Harrods GWP and 15 pc off as still running things down…narrowly! Was fairly good selection.

Even though I'm really trying not to spend, I ordered the Cult Beauty Trending Edit. Lots of lovely make up and some skincare.

Also I cleared out my Liberty credit by buying a pair of Celine sunglasses in the sale. Loved Anne Hathaway's pair in "The Idea of You'. These are similar and hopefully suit me/feel comfortable.

Ooohh I saw those Celine sunglasses - v nice!

@Housewife2010 - I succumbed to the Cult Beauty Edit too. It’s my birthday this week so I treated myself.

I’m waiting for my Cult Beauty Edit, only ordered it on Saturday and impressively arriving today - do find their edits to be really good value.

Think my Beauty Drop days are numbered unless there’s something tempting soon.

I got the Cult Beauty trending edit too. I’ve loved the last few edits. Have to admit I’m glad to have finished with Liberty now and be free to spend money where the best kits/edits/gifts/stock are.
I would say the Liberty sale this time is one of the better ones but given that once again I can’t access my account I’m not bothering!

I appreciate she's a little marmite here but Caroline Horins' kits are currently on sale:

They are really good value @TreesinthePark. Trying hard to resist!

I am probably being impatient as I only ordered on Friday but has anyone had their Fenwick order dispatched yet?

@RedSwans I ordered on Thursday and am still impatiently waiting…….

Fenwicks can take ages to dispatch, and they sell you things that are out of stock and keep them advertised on the website. It took a month for them to send me a dress in January, no doubt unusually long but just a warning it might not be quick!

Ooh I came on here to ask if anyone else had received their Fenwicks order! I’ve never ordered from there before but ordered on Friday and it’s still ‘waiting for allocation’. Wonder why they are so slow compared to others?

I think it’s because they are a quite traditional family business (or were) and never invested in tech, it’s only relatively recently that you can buy online from Fenwicks at all.

I’m glad I’m not the only one! Hopefully soon!

space nk have got a GWP if of interest to anyone. It doesn’t call to me, lots of small sizes again and nothing wow to me. As I said upthread I think across the big beauty retailers fabulous GWPs are a thing of the past now.

None of these recent GWPs speak to me, too many small sizes of brands I've seen again and again, I think you're right @LoveLabradors - fabulous GWPs have gone the way of GP appointments, they don't exist any more! Probably not a bad thing in my case as I have about 20 years of backlog still to get through

Minis/travel sizes seem to be the great divider. I really like them, and use them a lot travelling. I don't overly like buying them just because if I'm spending £40 on skincare, it tends to be better to buy one good thing than lots of minis that have a higher £ to ml ratio.

I've also found quite a lot of products through minis which I've gone on to buy the full sizes of.

I'm still wavering with the new kit.
Can anyone who's had the new kit tell me what the Bibbi fragrance is like?

Oooh I fell into the space one - it had several things I wanted to try, and I had to buy a couple of gifts anyway. I do find the small sizes useful for trips. But I do agree they aren’t the gwp of yesteryear!

I do like a selection of small sizes for travelling but I do miss some full sizes, luxe perfume and diptyque candle though!

Absolutely! And there’s a fine line between small and microscopic!

Has anyone received their order from Fenwick? Mine came this afternoon.

@CinnamonCoffee , mine came yesterday. Really happy with the GWP 😊
