🎄 2025 Style and Beauty Advent Calendar Discussion ***SPOILERS*** THREAD 9

[BakeOffRewatch]

New thread! Will this be the last thread? I think it will last two weeks and we’ll finish on a round number 10. Though Black Friday deals may mean we burn through this and 10 onto 11 and 12!

I’ve started getting Black Friday early access emails for 25% etc.

I’ve just noticed that the Liberty calendar is back in stock if anyone still wants it.

I have a cheap Amazon version and I mostly just use the white noise. The sunset function got annoying when I’d just got to a good bit in my book and the light dimmed. I am quite good at waking up on my own so didn’t use the sunrise for long as I was always awake before it anyway. I do still use it if I have to get up at an unnatural hour eg to catch a 6am flight

I think my evening viewing may have just been sorted as been waiting for a Vogue unboxing as Miss Boux usually does it but maybe she has skipped it this year.

I’m quite tempted with the extra discount, do you know how to get it?

Bugger ASOS seems to have sold out and it never got discounted. Do you think Glossy box is the next best in that price range for a teen who wants makeup?

There's no discount yet as far as I'm aware. I just meant I would go for it if it's discounted by 25%

Ah, sorry, let’s hope it does get discounted…

Come on Liberty men’s make mammas day ! 🤣

Fingers crossed.

@Stowickthevast the ASOS calendar was discounted in October. I got it for £73. Around the same time last year I got it for £66.

I bought the SpaceNK Fragrance on launch day convinced it would sell out that morning! But I had been wanting the M&G Strawberry for months anyway so it was an easy decision for me.

I really like the Deadcool too, I wore it to work today knowing I had a 2hr meeting in a small room so wanted something subtle that wouldn't knock out my colleagues! It's not overly vanilla-y, I find it quite sweet yet still fresh.

Yes, I got the ASOS with their RANDOM 25% discount back in October for my teen.

@Stowickthevast Although more expensive I think the Boots Premium has a great selection for a teen.

ah I was not on the case in October! Will check out Boots, thanks

My M&S arrived today .
I would have been disappointed if I had paid full price .
Tiny sample sizes and a few DOD.
I wanted the Prai decollatage cream as it had been in a previous years calender but this time it’s much smaller .
Im going to make a frankenstein calender for my dd with some of this and my own beauty stash .
Luckily I have my Brown Thomas one to look forward to .

Sweet but fresh sounds good.

Is the M&G one very sweet? I'm assuming not even though it's strawberry.

It is sweet yes but I would say its a sophisticated sweetness as opposed to a teenage girl's body spray. It's complex enough that the the strawberry adds to the perfume rather than being the overriding scent.

Gosh, I hope that makes some kind of sense!🤣

Yeah, that makes sense. I don't like sickly sweet aka teenage body spray (excellent comparitor by the way) but I do like a balanced sweet.

Ohh Brown Thomas looks beautiful! I haven't seen this calendar mentioned. It's gorgeous and great value. Unfortunately sold out.

It's only available on the island of Ireland so unless you live here, you didn't miss out.

Cowshed has a 12 day AC in a wicker basket

They also have a free goody bag ('worth £356') with a spend of over £300, if you're buying loads...!

You beauty are offering a Neom candle with the purchase of an advent, still not enough to tempt me

Just succumbed to Degustabox: they sent an email showing most of the items and reduced it to £31.99.

Can you post the contents, please?

I hope this works:
