Has the space nk lip cracker sold out? It keeps letting me add to basket but not check out. Annoyed with myself for not buying yesterday

Just received my latest in beauty mystery box! It's fab! I think they are doing two free with the calendar so thought you might be interested.

I agree. Best not to look or you will be tempted by something…….
Though if anybody spots an Elemis offer, please let me know 🙂

Step away from the thread.... Unless there are any deals I can combine with buying Jo Malone Orange Bitters......

Someone mentioned a QVC Elemis offer coming next week.

Yes 4 Nov. It's normally £60 odd on release days and generally a couple of pro collagen products and a shower cream and matching body cream. Really good value!

MrsBnow12 · 30/10/2024 22:21

@Ohdear7 not sure if they have issues with it as I ordered it yesterday with the Haircare one and only the Haircare got dispatched today

IlovePond · 30/10/2024 22:23

Hi, has anyone with a £10 JL reward tried to redeem it against on of the £22 crackers?

I don’t know if the crackers count as ‘skincare’ and I don’t want to activate the code just to see in case I lose it.

Than in s

PROMYSTERYx2 for the two mystery boxes free plus £20 off advent if still running. But I just got a mystery box on its own off their site.

HTH!

IlovePond · 30/10/2024 22:37

Hi,

Code: ACEMAIL40 gives £40 off the Latest in Beauty advent calendar, bringing it down to £129.

I checked and it is working as of tonight.

Oh my. This looks REALLY good. Can I ask, is that the 'Mystery Box No 1' on their site at £20? I got one about 6 weeks ago and the contents were totally different (also good). I told myself after buying it and the LF advent calendar that I was done, but I absolutely would justify another £20 to get some of these items...

Cyclingmummy1 · 31/10/2024 08:15

Delighted with the J L beauty box. Can't decide whether to decant it and my candle advent into one big advent or just to open some of the products now. Either way, I'm not buying anything more.

Yes it is the same one! But I can't guarantee it will be the same contents, being a mystery box. I was thrilled to have three Grown Alchemist products, an expensive but lovely brand. I was an LIB Pro so I got a discount. They are such a good company.

If you get it would love to see a pic!

Oh and also the Ella and Jo night cream costs about £43!

MyStylish40s · 31/10/2024 08:34

Delighted to see people getting reductions

My ASOS arrived for DD. I think it was good value at 25% off. I watched the unboxing, and there are some lovely things in there. Mostly miniature sizes but some full.
The packaging wasn’t damaged. I think some people had issues with that.

I have Space NK for myself, and Bonne Maman jam, for the family. I think we will take turns with that one, whoever is first to the kitchen in the mornings.

Oooh that does look good always and could be the box to make me fall of my No Beauty Spend Till Aftet Christmas wagon Grin

Can I ask how you get the pro discount? Hoping to try and offset that steep delivery charge

IlovePond · 31/10/2024 08:41

Hi, does anyone know if the JL beauty crackers are only available online? Thanks

tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz · 31/10/2024 08:45

Spin to win also at Otigina today ... up to 25%, free gift with order and with all orders x 2 free minis at checkout. Free delivery on £35+.

3.4% on TopCashback too but this may not tack with codes but worth trying anyway.

If you have reactive skin I love their Mega Mushroom soothing lotion. Lasts ages too. Happy say it doesn't actually smell of mushrooms 

tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz · 31/10/2024 08:45

Doh Origins even.

IlovePond · 31/10/2024 08:49

I was quite excited for a minute about the new mystery brand @tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz 😹

Hi all, have been inspired by these threads to buy my first ever beauty calendar. I got the Elemis one as I love their stuff.

Does anyone know if every calendar has the same product in the same drawer? The reason I ask is because I am going away next week and need to take a small tube of face moisturiser. I don't have any but I bet there's one or two in the calendar.

If they're all the same; does anyone know which number a daily face moisturiser is in please?

And also is there any shampoo in it?

Tia

There are plenty of unboxing videos on YouTube, if you watch a few as well as yours you wont remember what products are on which calendar

Hi there it's a historical thing going back to when they did subscription build your own boxes which were amazing. So I get 15 percent off and Free postage on everything. Which happens automatically when I login.

If you're not a pro you might want to register for their notifications as they do great deals.

So the box without pro discount is £20. I think postage is reasonable, maybe 3.95 not sure.

LivinInYourBigGlassHouseWithAView · 31/10/2024 09:37

Thanks @alwaysfretting , just decided to punt and order a Mystery Box for myself (and my daughter) as a surprise box o' treats to try. Fingers crossed for some nice stuff!

Moofart · 31/10/2024 09:49

I've caved and bought JL after it was back in stock. I shouldn't have really as I've had a lot of outgoings recently but last year my beauty advent bought me unmeasurable joy and you can't put a price on that can you 🤣

IlovePond · 31/10/2024 10:04

My Sephora order of eyeshadow came today - am a bit annoyed I fell for 15% off when they have offered me 20% today 😼

Puravida23 · 31/10/2024 10:07

Following on from the love in with Latest in Beauty if anyone is on tiktok.they have their own shop and the mens box listed above (thank you @OvaHere )is only £34 which is a bargain. I have just bought it for stocking fillers . They do have reactive pricing though so prices do change and I have two accounts one gave me it for £36 one gave me it for £34 so you may not get the same price but worth checking out if interested. I would say there are a lot of scams on tiktok so I only buy from legit sites like latest on beauty
