Beauty advent calendars 2024 #4

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!

😹@tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz - the blooming thing is still in the oven and I want to go to bed!

And yes, I can feel myself weakening re: M&S, leg mist and all🙀

Just spotted a new brand launch. I follow James Welsh on YT because he has a similar type of rosacea to me and he's mentioned a brand called Beekman 1802 that's just arrived at Beauty Bay. Apparently very good for us sensitive skin types. Just had a look and some of it looks quite appealing.

No deals to be had right now but I thought some of you might be interested in a one to keep an eye on type way.

I’m surprised that Selfridges sold out so quickly, I wasn’t impressed by it.
I was tempted by the perfume shop AC but I went in store and they had 20% off gift sets so I got my favourite bottle in a set instead.

I’m still hoping Harrods will come back in stock, even though I have Space NK and JL, and I absolutely shouldn’t even be considering buying any more

Hadenough2022 · 16/10/2024 22:13

I can’t believe the advent calendars are selling out so quickly. I was thinking about JL but looks like I’ve missed the boat. Sephora looks ok but it says pre order for delivery on 1December?? Not sure I want to pay now for something that might turn up weeks later. Never ordered from Sephora before has anyone used them?

Not advent but went to check out the J L box and noticed that the minimum spend for £5 off for 5 empties is £50. Did it not used to be £20?

Yes it was previously £20min spend, don't know when that changed - and now it's only when you spend over £50 on certain brands! Better chuck out all the empties I've been saving.

You might be right about that - they bought out Feel Unique, who had excellent delivery times, and now all my orders form Sephora seem to take over a week to get here. I use LookFantastic for everything now, if possible.

It says for despatch on or before 1st December, so I suspect it would be quicker. Sephora are fine, more on a par with Space NK and CB than LF IMO. I wouldn't have any concerns about ordering from them (and I do, often).

CB and LF are the same company! Both are brand names of The Hut Group

I know, I remember when they took them over, but I still think branding-wise CB is superior.

That’s reassuring at this rate there will be nothing left to order! I’ve had the Liberty one for the past few years and wanted a different one for a change.

Or take them to Boots.

Housewife2010 · 16/10/2024 22:58

Maybe the retailers have limited the numbers of ACs they've produced this year? 2022 was the fabulous AC year where they'd all overstocked and there were some fabulous bargains.

Witchinawell · 17/10/2024 05:23

Olverum Bath Oil for the person who asked here - just a capful in your bath is enough for your skin to feel gorgeous and the entire house smells amazing afterwards for hours - like a spa. I tend to use AA shower oil on a daily basis and the olverum I keep for special (ie try not to use it more than once a week), it truely is one of my favourite ac finds.

HN Fragrance Advent is now live - I didn't get my notification email, so I kept their website open on my phone so it was the first thing I'd see!

tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz · 17/10/2024 07:17

I really enjoy J Welsh on YouTube, he has a very naughty laugh Grin

tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz · 17/10/2024 07:18

DD always does a very dramatic -

Because
Perfection
Doesn't
Exist

thing when she watches him

IDontHateRainbows · 17/10/2024 07:20

Gonna dodge the HN fragrance calendar as plumped for space nk instead. Far too many calendars have released this week. Can barely keep up!

Excited to be collecting selfridges AC later

Stowickthevast · 17/10/2024 07:26

I went for the Space NK fragrance last night. I figured there's enough there that I'd like and I can always sell on the Escentric Molecules - or give them to the Dds.

I was looking at Sephora again and I think on one of their adverts, it says it would be despatched by mid November.

Annoyed I missed Selfridges, wonder if it'll come into stock. Or I'll keep an eye out on Vinted for the bits I really wanted.

ElizabethG81 · 17/10/2024 07:29

The Selfridges AC is back in stock if anyone is looking to order.

ElizabethG81 · 17/10/2024 07:30

virgocatlover · 17/10/2024 07:31

It looks like JL has now sold out.

I've just ordered the HN Fragrance AC.

pinkchampagne1 · 17/10/2024 07:40

Selfridges is back in stock so might have been a glitch

Lurkingshark · 17/10/2024 07:41

Me toofor the HN fragrance one. I’m excited as it’s the first fragrance one and sharing my the other half. I’m trying to dodge the boxes and enjoy my Beauty drop box
