🎄 2025 Style and Beauty Advent Calendar Discussion ***SPOILERS*** THREAD 10

[BakeOffRewatch]

Final one before the opening threads. Who is starting the opening threads and for which ones? Please share the links below. There’ll be Waifs and Strays one, DIY, and possibly Harrods, Space NK, Liberty?

On 1st December, the opening threads start, I’ll ask MN to update this post with links.

If you’re looking to continue the chat beyond BACs there is the Beauty chat thread here by @OvaHere : https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/style_and_beauty/5444855-beauty-chat-freebiesgifts-with-purchaseoffers-thread-six
and the perfumistas thread here by @IDontHateRainbows : https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/style_and_beauty/5443053-scent-of-the-day-part-six-what-will-the-friendly-perfumistas-spray-next
Both threads are quite spendy, be warned!

[New links added by MNHQ at OP's request]

Are there enough of us interested to warrant a Harrods opening thread? Happy to start one if so, just aware that due to my erratic schedule I may be a bit rubbish at it too 😅

Thank you everyone for your company, always feel like this is a safe space where we can indulge our love of BAC’s and if you buy 8 or 9 no-one judges.
I’ll be on Waifs and Strays with my one based loosely on Sephora and Vogue, when it arrives.
I have PDM for post Christmas and may do a DIY for Jadvent unless there are some discounts this week.

See you in July and in between I generally hang out on the Beauty Chat thread.

Also want to say a big thank you to @BakeOffRewatch for managing the 10 excellent threads that got us all here! I hope we all get as much joy from our calendars as we have done from the threads.

Yes ! Harrods would be lovely 😊

Ive started a SNK thread, I think there are a few people with this asvent ? 😊

Anyone interested in Boots skincare or will we stick to waifs and strays?

Another with the Harrods calendar excited for an opening thread! 😃

I am really going to miss this thread. It has been my favourite thread on MN for the last few months.

I agree - thank you so much @BakeOffRewatch

Yep please, that would be great

Grand. I'll set one up then. If it's only you and me we can always shift over to waifs and strays.

I will be on both, love an opening thread 😀

Boots Skincare opening thread at https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/style_and_beauty/5452586-boots-skincare-advent-calendar-opening-thread

Here we go! Husband got my Liberty out of the spare room and it’s now by my bed. I am SO EXCITED!

It’s my only one but I am really looking forward to it.

And I need to join the hoarders thread…😆

Really enjoyed this thread thank you. This and the beauty freebies thread are so friendly with lovely posters. Enjoy your advents everyone! I’ve had my birthday month November John Lewis Badvent and loved the contents so for those of you who have it to look forward to - enjoy! 🥰

Is there a link, I'd like to join x

I hope this works ..

Happy Advent Eve 🎉💃

I'm so sad that this thread is now going 😭 it's been so much fun! Thank you @BakeOffRewatch 🩷

I'll be joining the Harrods and waifs and strays with my Frankenstein 😁 I'm not sure I can wait until Christmas to open my 12 day ones when I've been thinking it's from tomorrow. Or Tuesday as I'm still away.

So excited! I can't wait to get home and get them all set out 🎄🎅

Adding my thanks to the wonderful @BakeOffRewatch for all of the threads leading up to tomorrow. You've been a superstar my lovely.

I also can't quite believe we are actually almost here. Happy Advent eve to you all. I have M&S, Anthropologie and Glossybox, but may lurk on the Liberty thread as I'm planning on getting it next year.

Cheers, all and will definitely miss this thread (but see a lot of you on other threads)

@BakeOffRewatch , you have been a superstar at keeping us going, thank you so much. And to all the RHOBAC, it’s been an absolute blast. You are all amazing 🤩 . I tend to stay away from the opening threads as I’m an open after work kind of girl but I’m sure our paths will cross on a beauty/using up/stop buying thread over the next few months. If not, Happy Advent 🎄 , enjoy your BACs 🎁 💄 💋 and with a bit of luck, see you all next year.

Is there a John Lewis AC thread?

Everyone is leaving and it’s only page 16 😧

Will we still use this thread for sharing discounted BACs?

Oh yes, definitely- I’ll still be checking in- haven’t left. Just wanted to make sure I got to say goodbye and thank you before everyone splits off.

NEXT are reduced to £85 and £160 if anyone wants a last hoorah!
