I hope no one minds me starting a new thread. I couldn't see one.

I can't justify spending £200 at the moment, it's a nice mix but small sizes and so many repeats!

jay55 · 22/04/2025 09:44

As usual they’ve over estimated the value by £200. The bag it comes with is very pretty but not practical for me.

BCSurvivor · 22/04/2025 09:47

They say Moon Carnival is 10ml, but in the photo it's definitely a 1.5/2ml sample in the picture!

BIossomtoes · 22/04/2025 10:04

More Bamford and Philip Kingsley 🙄

FCforMounjaro · 22/04/2025 10:12

The two perfumes are both very nice - but I don’t need anything. Self imposed buying ban for a few months.

wheresmyshoe · 22/04/2025 10:13

That’s not a great GWP for a £200 spend, particularly if it’s a tiny Moon Carnival rather than the 10ml. Too many things we’ve seen time and time again, and didn’t go wild for first time round.

That's a deal breaker for me. 10ml and I'd be interested

Another76543 · 22/04/2025 10:39

I’m on the fence about this. I’ve been waiting for a GWP, as the April/May one is usually good. There are many repeats and stuff I’m not interested in with this GWP though. Do we think there’ll be a better GWP along? That bag suggests it’s the main GWP they’ll be doing.

AprilLady · 22/04/2025 10:54

I actually think it’s not bad at all - much better than the previous one. The skin rocks and zelens look to be full size, if the Moon Carnival is 10ml that would be three travel sized perfumes, which is pretty good. While they’re small, I really like the Sunday Riley and Sisley products. The shampoo and conditioner are 100ml each, which is a decent travel size too. So overall, I think if you were waiting to buy stuff you wanted anyway, this would be a good opportunity to do so.

abnerbrownsdressinggown · 22/04/2025 11:37

I don't think it's that bad, just too many repeats for me which has made it an easy decision not to go for it.

Back21970 · 22/04/2025 11:42

Disappointing for me, I have £120 credit plus a £10 voucher burning a hole in my pocket but there’s not a lot in this I fancy, especially as I will have to add my own money to meet the threshold spend.

I’ll hang on till they do a decent edit and then I’m cancelling.

JustLikeThatBluebird · 22/04/2025 11:54

I also have £100 or so in credit and a £10 voucher but I don't think I fancy this. What I want is an amazing kit.

MyCatsSlave · 22/04/2025 12:11

@wheresmyshoe I’ve just checked with Liberty and the moon carnival is only 2ml. Like you I would have got the kit if it was 10ml

wheresmyshoe · 22/04/2025 12:20

Thanks very much for checking @MyCatsSlave

IDontHateRainbows · 22/04/2025 13:05

My disappointment at the moon carnival only being 2ml has put me off getting it - they have missed a trick there. Liberty used to do such good GWPs/boxes/kits but have really gone down hill lately. Too many minis in this. The only thing that slightly appeals is the Wild Rosinda, and I'm sure they will be on ebay at less than £20 following the release of the GWP so maybe I'll just wait for that.

BurningTheToast · 22/04/2025 13:35

I've ordered as it means I can use up my Beauty Drop credit and a loyalty voucher. I'd have preferred a good kit but there you go. There are a few things that will be handy for trips away, I like the Suqqu lotion and I've been surprisingly impressed with the Skin Rocks retinoid 1. Some of the rest and probably the wash bag will be hitting Vinted as part of my pre-move declutter.

The thing about my beauty drop credit is that it doesn't feel like real money so I don't feel guilty about the big bottle of Dyptique hand lotion I ordered for my desk...

TreesinthePark · 22/04/2025 14:56

Ooh I was already thinking what to buy as I read the product list but confirmation for the Moon Carnival being only 2ml has made me pause now.

I would have dived in even though I actually bought Moon Carnival in 50ml recently but I really do love it and a travel size would be great. Now, I have time to think and not jump into spending £200 on impulse and I know I won't be too disappointed if it sells out while I decide.

I really do like Wild Rosinda though, and it's an obscene price to buy on its own so ....hmmm

Alabas · 22/04/2025 15:02

Oh no!! I was really looking forward to a new GWP as there are some things I need and have credit. Bamford and PK is not luxury to me and it’s in everything - I must have 20 in my wardrobe. I can’t get rid of the skin rocks stuff, and I wasn’t impressed with that shampoo last time they stuck it in a GWP. It would be really nice to have some new stuff, and luxury items, even if there were less of them.

Agreed, I really don't want any more Bamford or PK. I am planning a bit of a birthday splurge (my presents to me are always the best ones Grin) but this isn't enticing me to spend a chunk at liberty

HellsBells67 · 22/04/2025 17:43

Am exactly the same @WindsurfingDreams My birthday in two weeks and I always get something lovely from Diptyque to me but this bag doesn't tempt me at all. I thought, with the 3 monthly beauty boxes especially, it was a chance to try new products but Bamford and Zelens have been in almost everything.

Or maybe I am just all beautied out...

Mystery2345 · 22/04/2025 18:08

I've been waiting for a GWP - but so many repeat items in this one, again! Maybe they only want to attract new customers, people who haven't had Beauty Box or GWP before.

OvaHere · 22/04/2025 18:51

It's an okay GWP but a lot of repeats for BD members. I'd get it if I was planning to buy something but I'm not. I guess my advent calendar fund is safe once again.

WeAreBorg · 23/04/2025 10:16

Too many repeats for me too. I do need some basics but will just get my usual from Beauty pie. Hoping the advent calendar is good this year as am racking up credit

TragicMuse · 23/04/2025 18:17

I was away till last night. Agree that the Bamford stuff never feels particularly luxurious, but I’m going away for a few days next week so it will come in handy. Ditto small face creams.

I like it as a treat and I’m storing credit for the advent calendar so I’m sticking with it for now. But I get as much fun from the Look Fantastic box which is substantially cheaper!

BCSurvivor · 23/04/2025 18:23

Has anyone actually caved and got the GWP?
I'm curious about the Fugazzi eau de parfum.
