🎄 2025 Style and Beauty Advent Calendar Discussion ***SPOILERS*** THREAD 7

[BakeOffRewatch]

New thread!

I agree it’s a nice selection but has some small
sizes, will pass unless reduced to £80ish

Think Space NK fragrance maybe released tomorrow and Caroline Hirons is also releasing a new kit tomorrow night - could be an expensive day 😂

You're right. It does look a bit 'organic museli' 😂

Waiting to see the SPNK perfume BAC then try to decide between this of the HN one . The HN one says it is still available online ? . From last years experience does anyone think there is a real preference ?

Ooh! Thanks!

I’m a bit disappointed the Trinny is a small size. But it’s a nice selection…

They're listing 10ml of perfume as full size!

Oh no, that’s not good that your delina was broken. I hope Fenwick send you another.

I don't need anymore nail varnish, mascaras or eye sticks and I already have the blusher and hand cream. Red lippy isn't for me, I dont need any more hair stuff and I have a few Trinny products to try already. Quite relieved tbh.

I’ve gone for Jarrolds. Had an email for 15% off preorder and also used my 15% new subscriber discount which brought it down to £90.32. It’s a nice 12 day with an excellent range of products for me. I may have to rebox it all in something less cheap looking. It really is unbelievably ugly!

I also think the Jarrolds is quite nice, it has some great stuff in for £125. But I don't like when they class nail polish, 10ml perfume and eye shadow sticks as full size. It has some of the items in from premium calendars without the premium price tag 😊

That's a good price 😍 the box might be better in person 😊

I very much doubt it- it’s awful 😂

Is it the contents that you're waiting to compare? If so, the contents are up on beauty detectives website, I'm guessing she's taken the list from ReallyRee's unboxing:

I’m relieved that I don’t want the Jarrolds calendar. I’ve got all the perfumes apart from the Molton Brown, and there are too many cleansers and too much makeup for me.

🤣🤣

I can get the 15% off too. Makes it £106.

And there’re more than 12 items in there.

Ahh thanks not seen the contents , not that it’s helped I want them both 😆😭😭😭😭

Yeah, that's the only problem 🤣 All the fragrance calendars have been great this year, I think 😊

My personal view is the quality is far better with HN. Space NK have more your trendy young brands (and I would say weak!) such as dedcool. HN you will get more of a range, no full bottles - so it depends what you want. SNK I was sure I would go for before I saw the contents but there's only 1 or 2 I like and I can easily pick those up on vinted if needed

Thank you for this . I’ve gone through the reviews of the perfumes in Space Nk and I think I would probably like the smaller samples as to the full sized ones . The offerings all seem geared towards summery light fragrances which I don’t really need right now and never seem to last on me . I do better with the more musk and amber type . Just need to commit and be happy

Oh well. Jarrolds was the last one I was waiting for and it’s a no from me. I may reconsider if it’s still available and significantly discounted when I’m up in Norwich in a few weeks time. I agree, the box is hideous.

Where do you all see the Jarrolds box? I can only find the photo of it half unboxed. I want to see the hideous box too 😆

Yep, I think this is what I'm going to do. There's not enough in it that I want to buy it, but I'm going to pick up 1 or 2 on vinted 😊

I can get the 20% birthday code to work on the jarrolds. I never got the 15% sign up code.
I don't think I want the Jarrolds.
I've also got £30 liberty vouchers, plus a £5 birthday code. I'm not sure I want the ac, but there's also nothing else I want, the members week is rubbish. I'm going to cancel my beauty drop, but I would like this month's box! Well depending on the contents.
Then I've got £25 look fantastic vouchers, plus £5 birthday code, again I don't want their ac, and there's nothing else I can find.
I've not been interested in any of the calenders this year.
At this point I'm seriously considering Vogue, and I never thought I'd say that

Thanks @BakeOffRewatch

Here it is in all its glory! @XelaM
