This is the thread where we are all bright orange from Vitamin C overload. Luckily we have a truck load of Bronze Primer to cover it up. 😂

Last thread was probably another speed run record. Let's hope there's no March Madness. We're in need of a break.😳

As always anyone welcome to join and contribute. Although you shouldn't if you know what's good for you. 😉

I think I’m safe from the SNK perfume edits. There’s nothing I desperately want that I don’t have

user593 · 17/03/2026 08:22

Perfume edits don’t do anything for me thankfully. I have a stable of much loved perfumes which I stick with 😮‍💨

I want some from gourmand and some from floral. Tempted to buy both and sell some 🤔🤣

This is what I have done - interesting the new DedCool Mineral Milk is in one of them, think that was only recently released.

@OvaHere
My skin isn't great atm. I damaged my barrier using the naturium cleanser from snk then a new vit c. The cleanser was my fault entirely as I didnt read the writing. For oily, teenage skin. Im nearly 53 so that was never going to work. 🤣
Ive used barrier soothing balms,creams which are richer and helped my barrier but given me some small spots as very rich. 🤪
Must read labels.

I would have liked a citrus/fresh spnk fragrance edit. 🥰

Were you able to find a code that worked with them?

No I couldn’t, I completed a survey yesterday and am waiting for a 15% code to be sent but bought them full price.

Re the Cult Beauty Mac gwp glitch, my order got dispatched last night and it shows the gwp is in it. Will see when I am home tomorrow and can check.

user593 · 17/03/2026 08:43

@MrsBnow12 My MAC GWPs should be coming today, so I’ll report back!

This is interesting. I’ve been using it and not loving it - I should have read the label too- I’ll donate to DD.

That's what I'm doing( as usual) the Phlurs sound interesting also the new Maison Margiela I'm interested to try.

Arrearing50 · 17/03/2026 09:38

oh it’s easily done - I got a boots retinal product and slapped it on my face thinking oh it can’t be that strong. And burned it. And then as I still couldn’t believe a boots retinal was doing so much, I tried it again a few months later with the same result…

TragicMuse · 17/03/2026 09:46

Latest In Beauty have pimped the Elite box to me. It looks so good! And now they’ve sent me a code for 10% off and free delivery. SOELITE if you’re interested.

Do I stay strong? I need to but it’s so tempting!

Hicupping · 17/03/2026 09:48

@OvaHere In a CB edit there was the U beauty moisturiser (also came with a purple paula's choice retinol). If you've got it it's light but leaves skin lovely and soft. No spots or any clogging so far. It's more moisturising than the Zelen's melatonin.

Doglover73 · 17/03/2026 10:39

Oh I have a few ubeauty bits ive not tried yet but will look and see if I have this. Probably not 🤣
Thanks x

ElizabethG81 · 17/03/2026 10:52

Ordered all 3 SNK fragrance edits, and am a bit annoyed as I bought a 15ml Mochi Milk last week 😂 Well at least I’ll have another now. I think I’ll probably keep all the Gourmand ones.

It's this one. Ridiculously expensive sadly. https://theubeauty.co.uk/products/the-super-hydrator?variant=34179122856076&selling_plan=3079733388

Doglover73 · 17/03/2026 11:11

Im going to look. It sounds familiar but may have just read about it on here 🤔 🤣

Doglover73 · 17/03/2026 11:11

@Hicupping
My skin seems to prefer the pricier stuff 🤔 🥰🤣

IlovePond · 17/03/2026 11:30

Hi, all. I have just redeemed my £10 CB fragrance voucher against a 9ml JM that I will put into my DIY a/c. I then bought some more samples. My order came to £13, which I thought was pretty good.

I tried to order two lots of samples, but the reduction to £1 each didn’t work. I also tried to use the £10 reward on Ouia, but it only gave me £3 off, which is not what I wanted.

TCB said that you could get 1.5% c/b with a voucher code, so I have given that a go too.

user593 · 17/03/2026 13:04

The MAC GWP arrived with my WA order.

IlovePond · 17/03/2026 13:51

That’s good @user593 - what is the GWP?

user593 · 17/03/2026 13:54

It’s a vanity bag, full size Lustreglass Lipstick in Thanks, it’s MAC! and a full size Lip Pencil in Spice (although the CB website says it’s Cork, it isn’t!).

IlovePond · 17/03/2026 14:05

Thanks @user593

namechange0998776554799000 · 17/03/2026 14:05

Ballerine has arrived and it's gorgeous, perfect colour for me so thanks for all the recommendations!

IlovePond · 17/03/2026 14:08

My TCB has tracked for CB using a voucher code today!

MrsBnow12 · 17/03/2026 14:31

Thanks for this, I can’t check my order until tomorrow but have succumbed and ordered Bob to go with English Rose I ordered yesterday.
