So my spacenk orders turned up, 3 out of 4 had the diptyque sample in. 1 had a DS&Durga sample in instead. All of the other samples were fine 😊

Was that the debaser in bloom? Looks interesting but I know it will be tiny.

OvaHere · 26/03/2026 17:14

Mine turned up with NARS sharpener and free blush plus the samples. I did get Diptyque and JHAG as requested. Not tried either of them yet. I liked the Creed one from the other day.

@IDontHateRainbows I’m not sure if @JoRaRaRa got the same but I got D.S. & Durga I Don’t Know What as a replacement for some of the Diptyque samples I should have received.

Harpers box has arrived today. It's a very full box. I'll sell a couple of items but overall really pleased. Some good sizes.

Jarrolds is en route, I think it might be the same ball polish as in J L.

De-lurking to say that I returned one each of the floral and gourmand after reordering with the 15% off survey code that you guys alerted me to! It's only one of each but hopefully they'll relist them. Tracking looks like they'll be back with them tomorrow.

Thank you, I'll be watching the website like a hawk just in case 😅

Yep, I received the same one. I already have a sample of it and I'm not too fussed.

IDontHateRainbows · 26/03/2026 18:48

Still awaiting my SNK order, I'll be a bit pissed off if there's no diptyque.

This is like a more refined verson of gambling!

I was really happy with the Harpers box, one of my favourites recently - and fell head over heels in love with the perfume.

I have 5 SNK orders to check when I get home, I really hope I don’t get 5 x DS&Durgas and no Diptyque’s.

The order that didn't have the diptyque in was only a £5.60 body wash. The other 3 orders that did have diptyque in were all over £20. I'm not sure if that had anything to do with it, it really shouldn't but it just seems a bit of a coincidence to me.

I noticed that below a certain price point there wasn't even the option to pick samples. STILL waiting on my snk delivery from royal mail, 50 stops away not due until 9!!

Thelifeofawife · 26/03/2026 19:16

Okay, I caved and placed an SNK order to get the perfume samples 😅 I haven’t bothered with the delivery pass for a long time because my orders keep being more than the minimum spend for free delivery, so now I’ve used my credit to pay for the delivery pass so I can make the most of offers with small orders. Plus it’s nice to get them sooner rather than later

My £7.20 order with the free blush had the perfumes.

Oh I hope this isn’t the case for me, I ordered a body wash for £6.40

Maybe it was nothing to do with it, but it just seemed a coincidence.

user593 · 26/03/2026 19:38

@JoRaRaRa Same for me, my Medik8 orders had the Diptyque (3 orders) and my smaller Patchology orders didn’t (4 orders).

MrsBnow12 · 26/03/2026 19:54

4 out of my 5 orders had the Diptyque, 3 orders were body wash around £5.50 each, think my eye patch order didn’t have the Diptyque but did have the Creed and ordered the newish SDJ cream which was the most expensive order.

MrsBnow12 · 26/03/2026 19:56

The new Lisa Eldridge blushes are available on Space NK
now so may place another order later, just want to check the shades before ordering.

Ooh thank you, they must have just added them because I checked earlier. I can use credit to pay for them now!

user593 · 26/03/2026 19:59

I thought they’d be more than £27. That doesn’t seem too bad a price.

IDontHateRainbows · 26/03/2026 20:14

I had 4 out of 5 with the diptyque but was disappointed it was not a 5ml sample as advertised but 2ml.

The 5th one was the cheapest and ordered 4th so yes I think.price played a part.

IDontHateRainbows · 26/03/2026 20:19

Jarrold lemon drop bag arrived yesterday. Love the ES bag, so nice to have a decent one in a beauty box.

Han Beauty has swatches of them all now.
I have ordered the Cinnamon Bun one to try and agree I also thought they would be more than £27

I’m surprised but I’m not at all tempted by them. I don’t like the packaging, and the shades don’t look special to me. That might change though if others get them and start raving about them 😅

I'm not a perfume wearer so that might be one to sell.

Jarrolds Good Vibes has arrived and is a really good box. I know it's not as good value on paper as the Lemon but lots of things I'll use so a good buy.

Thelifeofawife · 26/03/2026 20:55

I received my Morphe goody bag. There’s a good range of products in there but I’m disappointed by the blush trio, to me they are more bronzer than blush.
Happy with the lip pencil though, that was one of the shades I’d noted down for myself
