We still have 2 months to go so there's still time for dilemmas, decisions and discounts.

We have a few coming out this week including John Lewis, OK and No7. I'm still WAC (without advent calendar) but that may soon change!

I used the dregs of Sunday Riley CEO this am and haven't stopped stroking my face since, it's soooo soft. Even DD She of Gorgeous Teen Skin remarked how good it looked!

Absolutely on the lookout now for bargainous CEO, Good Genes and Auto Correct ideally as a bundle.

I love a candle but I'm a bit disappointed by the brands they've chosen. Those Fairy Dust candles etc are a bit childish, and I'm not overly keen on Neom. I can see the Christmas tree candle is 85g, so looks like they're all pretty small sizes. I'd love to try the Scandinavisk candles tbf, so it's maybe worth it for those + Neom.

The box is only 25cm high so I expect they will be small sizes. I've ordered 😬

The Nuxe calendar is £66.30 at LF with code LFTAKE22 www.lookfantastic.com/p/nuxe-advent-calender/15418517/

Bugger.

There goes my no spend weekend Grin

I'd have loved at least one full size. I've just spend £40 on The White Company diffuser oils though(Fir Tree and Winter are back!) so I should not spend any more on home fragrance!

tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz · 05/10/2024 13:14

Does anyone know of codes stack on Look Fantastic?

My Glossybox one has arrived - checked all the contents are there and it looks fab - really nice box too, so dd will be thrilled.
Also got my boots one, which I can't check the contents of because of how it's packaged but it's not as impressive looking as the Glossybox.

No sign of the grümm free gift that was supposed to come with it though.

Yes I was asking on here about it. I have the box (lovely!) but no free gift and customer service response is gobbledegook

If you go on cult beauty, they have a free gift with Sunday Riley spend of £85, I think. And if you use the SALICB code you also get 20% off

I'd have expected one full size. There are 2 oils though.

I love Winter. Not so keen on Fir Tree which is my SIL's fave and was my mum's fave. I do like the look of the big candles on show though.

thetimeisnow · 05/10/2024 13:27

So excited for everyone getting their calendars.
Looking forward to all the openings in December.

My Space NK has arrived.
I've checked, all the contents are intact.

Going to sell the lip creme, lip colour and highlighter.

I hope to buy something to replace them with the money I get.

I love Augustus Bader face cream. It’s the one thing from Advent calendars I would re purchase. Any offers on that?

Isabelle70 · 05/10/2024 13:28

@tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz I used a pump of the CEO with a pump of my foundation as a lighter finish and I look glowing!! Certainly doing that again 😄 I pick mine up from eBay

I think you might be the only one! There's loads on Vinted for pretty reasonable price.

@JudgeBurrito all my home fragrances are skandinavisk apart from the WC Winter one which I buy every year. Haven't found anything better.

SheilaFentiman · 05/10/2024 13:57

SpaceNK also has the free CEO gift with £85 Sunday Riley spend

tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz · 05/10/2024 13:59

Thanks Maths!

ABirdsEyeView · 05/10/2024 14:16

@alwaysfretting so far as I can work out, it will be dispatched separately and they'll send an email when it's on its way.

VanCleefArpels · 05/10/2024 14:28

So did anyone else get the No7 premium calendar? It is a thing of beauty!

Thank you very much!

QVC have a £90 Sunday Riley bundle of those three products @tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz

Choux · 05/10/2024 14:43

The QVC bundle is the CEO serum and not the CEO moisturizer so that might not be why you want?

sharpclawedkitten · 05/10/2024 15:28

Oh wow that JL calendar is proper (if smaller) candles, I'd assumed it would be tealights. I bought some from the White Company though, along with a bigger candle so I will not indulge.

tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz · 05/10/2024 15:33

Thanks Choux ... that's a little spendy for me but I'm considering the sites mentioned earlier as they have items I want - annoyingly tho I'm just below the free gift spend! Looking on Vinted also.

I love NUXE, but still have lots from my previous one. Maybe if it’s discounted later, I’ll be tempted.

Glossybox looks super pretty this year; think my daughter will love hers.
