[OvaHere]

Hope nobody minds me setting up a new one as the old one is nearly full.

Everyone welcome to discuss freebies, edits, boxes and general beauty chat.

As it's been announced I would say in next 1-2 weeks.

Similar for me! I didn’t save my credit last year and although I was generally happy with my not-luxury box, I wanted - deeply wanted - the Liberty one again!

so I’m hoping there won’t be an amazing GWP to tempt me from my true path!!

@MrsBnow12 is getting worse and worse, if it is even possible!
The KS sprays shouldn't be anywhere near buying customers.
I don't know why the product was discontinued, but I know I had quite a few silver and gold ones accumulated through various TBBC boxes and I really struggled to sell them last year on eBay/Vinted. Clearly nobody wants them for some unknown reason. I wasn't interested in using them myself only because I have a theory in my head that aerosols with chemicals shouldn't be anywhere near my face, my thinking being that half of each spray ends up in my lungs, so I never use aerosols products of any kind (I do use spray mists like the Omorivzka one because but I reason it's a spray not an aerosol).

Thanks @OvaHere I managed to grab the edit. I missed it first time around and was really wanting to try the Huda colour corrector. I've since tried cherry blossom and it's the perfect shade for me, so will do for our upcoming holiday.

I also saw the waiting list for the Lookfantastic advent calendar is available now. I had it last year and am planning on getting it for my sister and or maybe myself this year.

Lovely. It's a nice one and the Cherry Blossom sold out first last time so I'm surprised that was the one that came back. I'm not sure what makes them come back on occasion months later - maybe someone finds a missed crate somewhere? 😂

I got the make up bag version (which hasn't made a comeback) when they first launched. I really enjoyed that one and the Hush bag is fab.

I've been hoping they do a scent edit this month as they have for at least the last couple of years in June. I'm torn though because that would be most of my credit gone and it's supposed to be the advent calendar fund.

That said, once the AC's start coming out I'm fully aware I may want SpaceNK/Harrods/Cult Beauty over Liberty dependant on what's in them. I'm keeping everything crossed that Liberty knock it out of the park this year which will make it easier.

I’m another who’s really hoping for a fragrance edit. I checked my order history and I bought last year’s edit on 6 June, so I’m getting very excited each time I get an email from Liberty.

@Branster I know, I am so disappointed with them and if they are knowingly selling out of date skincare it is really really bad. As I said before, I am done with them and won’t be ordering from them again.
@OvaHere I could have written that post, I am another hoping for a scent edit and will get that over the advent. I have quite a substantial stash and have most of my skincare routine sorted,I will be looking for advents with Tatcha Dewy, Bioeffect and Kate Somerville Peptide K8 cream, I plan on getting a fragrance calendar for my birthday in September and possibly a k-beauty one.

Also anyone knows of a decent dupe for the KS cream please let me know as £135 for 30ml a is way above my budget. I bought two recently from TKMaxx and they were both out of date and returned.

@OvaHere thank you for always reminding us about the CBWELCOME code! I’ve consistently forgotten to try it before — I kept thinking it must just be for new customers, but I’ve just had success with it now. So gratifying to save an extra bit of money on an order already containing edits. It helped me justify the little Ouai kit I wanted to buy for DD. ☺️

@LemonJuiceFromConcentrate You're welcome. The Ouai kit is lovely.

For everyone else Cult Beauty The Flight Mode Kit went on early access today £45. CBWELCOME15 brings it down to about £40. A pop up on the website tells me it's selling fast with nearly 300 purchased today so this one might not hang around long.

@MrsBnow12 That's poor that the TKMaxx ones are out of date. I know they take clearance stuff but I would expect them to be in date. I've got some KS eye cream from their I was planning to open next, I probably should check up on that.

I'm liking the Naturium peptide cream I brought on hols although I couldn't say if it has a similar texture. I also like the haruharu wonder centella peptide cream and Drunk Elephant Protini. Again though can't say how well they dupe KS.

I’ve run out of quite a few things & want to buy my Byredo summer perfume, so am eagerly awaiting a space nk or cult beauty GWP.

There's a SpaceNK make up one. Free with £65 make up spend. Might not be what you're looking for though.

Not sure if it's a glitch on Boots.com but I was just allowed to add 5 different offers to 3 No7 Pro Artist items. Should have been £60 but only paid £10! Would work on any 3 Pro Artist items as it's 3 for 2. Thought I would share as the discount is amazing.

Have added an image to show my basket and the codes but it's just under review.

That's pretty good @CesarSoubreyon thanks for sharing.

Thank you @CesarSoubreyon - I’ve ordered some foundations to try. Had them in my basket already as wanted to check the colours but at this price, I’ve just ordered all three.

generally I’ve found boots have had some very good deals this year - not sure who / what they’ve changed in their beauty strategy but hope it’s working for them. I love no7, as a range it’s so reliable and value for money.

i nearly bought but reminded myself I don’t need anything right now….

@CesarSoubreyon Great deal! I've ordered two primers and some loose powder for £12 incl click and collect charge. Thanks for sharing!

That link takes us into your account!

Just in case it's of interest their hair edit from a while back is still available. I bought it when it first launched and it has nice products in it. The bag is a useful large size too.

Just to add. Although the picture shows 2 Biodance toner pads I think you just get one tub of 60 pads (random selection).
