Liberty Beauty Drop Spoiler (from the despatch date!) Part 10

[Housewife2010]

Brand new sparkling and scented thread to take us through the excitement of the October Beauty Drop box and The Advent Calendar. 🎄⛄🎅💄

I usually get my box early but I'm still awaiting delivery as bizarrely Yodel had sent my box to a delivery depot at the opposite end of the country to me.
Its now back at the National Distribution centre saying it will be delivered today 😂
So it might arrive tomorrow!

My goodness that AB serum sample is 7ml. The 15ml for sale is £150!

Square box. I was sad about the change but it’s fine. I like that there is not loads of excess.

I quite like this one as I like perfumes and cleansers, but I’ve liked previously ones. Have they ever given out make up? Anyway, I’m struggling to spend it this year, even on clothes and fabric. Also waiting for kits and sales!

😱😱😱 I hadn’t checked the price yet - now tiny bit scared to use it!!

I love the Sisley mask and the purple perfume. This is my second box & I’m So pleased with it. Now looking forward to January!

(ps square box here too)

There was a chubby eyeliner crayon stick that was being discontinued, we all hated it

@BakeOffRewatch thanks. It’s like the Trish McEvoy moisture stick which was basically Vaseline and sold nowhere.

@Hicupping apologies as I'm only an occasional poster but an avid follower on here -just wanted to add that @OvaHere is spot on with the expiry date being Jan 25 as I still have my tub. In case you do receive it and don't want to risk it near your eyes, I've been using mine up with great success on my neck. it has been easily the best neck cream I've ever used so I thought I'd just let you know in case you are also blessed with a crepey neck!!

Thank you. Great idea. @nearly61

Double points - do they show at checkout?

Square box here.

I’m wearing the purple perfume today - the Parma violet top note very quickly went which was a bit disappointing as I love violet perfumes.

I won’t be using the retinol if anyone wants a swap (doesn’t need to be from this box)? I’m sure I have the last AB sample to throw in too.

I love the purple perfume and ordered a bigger bottle already!

How important is the expiry date on the eye cream? I have quite a lot left in my pot half and have started using it again in the last week - havent noticed any ill effects or difference either way!

Yes that black make up pen crayon was awful and when I googled discontinued but any (decent) make up would be a lovely change/ treat!

Of zero importance. I bought a second jar on Vinted which I’m still using. It’s fine.

I’m still using a second pot of the eye cream too that I bought on Vinted and it’s fine. I like the idea of using it as a neck cream though.

I used the Sisley mask last night. I was disappointed that I hadn’t reversed aging by 10 years when I woke up this morning, but my skin feels lovely and soft. I also really like the purple perfume, the 1875 is ok but not really my thing.

@MulberryPeony If you're worried the retinol is too harsh I've tried this retinol 3 times now and I have super sensitive skin and no reaction at all. Wouldn't have known I'd used a retinol at all.

I also used the Sisley last night and my face felt fab today! So soft! And my moisturiser absorbed really well too.

I’m also still using my eye cream with no ill-effects.

What would you be open to swapping for? I loved the AB serum!

Ooo I remember that! The one with glitter? I really wanted a green one and got black. I gave it to a teenager, she was thrilled with it!

I think I’m one of the few who didn’t like the eye cream, wish I’d have thought about using it as neck cream, maybe I’d have a few less creases by now if I had!!

I’m a bit of a liberty beauty box newbie… have been in for 6 months now, loving it!

Couple of questions if anyone can help, please:

Do the advent calendars get reduced in price in December (wishful thinking I know!!)

and how often are there “edits”. I’m tempted by the overnight edit, but there’s a few bits in there (hair and hand masks) that I wouldn’t use… is there likely to be another one in December? I’d love some skincare treats to get me going into the colder months…

I've still got a blue one of anyone wants it!

Got my box today & really like the 1875 perfume.
Apart from Maze every single LBTY perfume sample I get sent I end up buying as I love it.
Not sure about the Fugazzi Purple as it's too in your face.
Anything AB I love.
The Wild Source Cleansing Melt will go in my stash as have an unopened one from last years Liberty BAC.
I like sleep masks/creams so looking forward to trying the Sisley one.

Finally I'm impressed by the Liberty Wash bag as I've never had one before. It's really well made & the quality is excellent so I can see why everyone raves about them. The fabric & print are lovely.
Though personally I think a gold or bronze coloured zip would have looked better with the brown/gold colours of the Macsen print.

I'm really pleased with this box, what a lovely treat!

Topcashback still have their Liberty gift card with 5.6% CB if anyone's tempted with this weeks offers.

I have just had an e mail to say that Amazon cannot deliver my liberty order and to contact liberty. Has anyone had this and how good were liberty at resolving it? I always find their customer service awful.

How strange. I can only imagine Amazon have damaged the parcel or it’s gone missing.
IME Liberty CS are very good and they should have more tracking info than you so may know the reason behind the bizarre communication. The calendar is still in stock so be quick about your contact as they can easily resend atm.

@teenagersandalittleone sorry, I thought it was an advent calendar (wrong thread!). But Liberty are good so will resend a beauty drop box with the proof of Amazon’s failure to fulfil.
