If the foot cream is really greasy I might save it for winter so I can stick some bed socks on with it. Im clumsy enough without setting myself up to slip over on the way to the loo in the night.

msmillicentcat · 13/04/2026 13:23

I’ll be honest, although I’m not keen on the thought of emu oil (wth??) the foot cream is incredible and kept my feet soft and silky for ages after using it.

edit: just to say I meant I’ve had it in a previous edit and that’s when I used it.

Unpaidviewer · 13/04/2026 13:44

I've just received my box. I'm looking forward to trying the foot cream, I dont think we've had one before?

Housewife2010 · 13/04/2026 14:45

I'm happy with the box. The Elasticizer is very dull as it's been in so many boxes, but I wanted to try the Tana Meadow perfume. I already have a 10 ml Swimming Pool and I'm happy to have a sample to keep in my bag. I think it's great value for £15. I used last year's credit on the AC, but I've previously used it on a couple of pairs of gorgeous sunglasses. I've had every BD box and find the free delivery and 10% off beauty boxes a good perk.

I'm so so with this box. I don't like the Bibbi perfume, it was in a Liberty perfume edit so it's disappointing to see it turn up in the Beauty Drop. I find Elasticiser quite good but it's in everything and I have so many tubes of it to get through. The LBTY perfume I'm pleased to try. I love the foot cream (not at all oily for those wondering) though I currently have one I started not long ago. I don't really need any more hand cream or night creams but happy to try these two.

So yeah, not a very exciting box but I'll use most of it.

HellsBells67 · 13/04/2026 14:58

Not received my box yet but love the Margaret Dabbs foot cream, works like a charm and definitely non greasy. Will use the hand cream but have not liked a single Liberty fragrance so far. Not a particularly exciting box though.

mungo55 · 13/04/2026 15:42

Has anyone noticed certain brands dropping off from Liberty? I save my beauty drop money to spend on fragrance but they seem to have stopped selling my favourite brand Maison Margiela. It’s the same with certain skin care products, they stock them for a while, sell out and don’t replenish. It’s quite frustrating when you can’t buy your preferred items!

Lurkingshark · 13/04/2026 15:49

Just got my box. I quite like it and will use it all but might take a break until Christmas.

Mixture of not spending credit, not needing lots of small things/ using up what I have and guilt.

I like the perfumes - swimming pool one is really interesting and they are unusual - and foot cream gets used, if no patch on the cheaper boots ones.

Lurkingshark · 13/04/2026 15:52

I know lots of local boutiques rotate brands- plus in store sometimes has a bit more which is frustrating @mungo55

ClutteredPalace · 13/04/2026 16:39

My box has arrived. I love the perfumes but the rest is a bit boring. Definitely a functional box rather than a treat. Im going to start using the PK stuff as a normal conditioner otherwise I'll never get through it all. The only one I really liked was an Egyptian Jasmine scent they did a few years ago. I wish they'd bring that back instead.

DidILeaveTheGasOn · 13/04/2026 16:59

Does anyone here like the Libby perfume and want my sample, or shall I use it in the carpet shampoo machine? I don't like it, there's something spicy mint about it (or my nose is broken)

SummerLimes · 13/04/2026 17:12

A so so box for me - as pp functional- not a treat.
PK seems to breed in my cupboard so I’ll donate asap.

Addictedtobeauty · 13/04/2026 17:19

My box has arrived and it’s ok. I’ll enjoy the night cream and use everything so that’s not a bad thing. And actually I love the tana meadow, my favourite Liberty fragrance by far.

PuzzlingRecluse · 13/04/2026 17:22

My box arrived today, really pleased with the size of the handcream, I like pk too. Really don’t like the swimming pool perfume, but the liberty tana meadows is lovely. I’m on the fence about using foot cream with emu oil in …

would anyone like my swimming pool sample?
typing that made me laugh 😂

Hi would you like to swap for the swimming pool sample?

DidILeaveTheGasOn · 13/04/2026 17:32

Hey @PuzzlingRecluse I'm happy to send it with no swap, someone from the S&B threads has recently sent me something else that I really like so I'd like to pay it forward. PM me if you'd like it and I'll pop it in the post.

JoRaRaRa · 13/04/2026 17:50

My box has arrived, these are my thoughts 😊

The Grown Alchemist Restorative Hand cream 65ml is a great product, I love that it's full size and it's such a nice cream... Butttt!!.... Some of you might remember that I was crying out for a hand cream in the autumn or winter box. My hands get so dry and painful in the cold and so I would've appreciated this so much more then. For now, I'll put this in my stash for autumn 😕

PK Elasticizer... I know this pops up a lot, but I actually really like it and will defo use it. I love Philip Kingsley as a brand too 💁🏻‍♀️ But does the elasticizer belong in a Liberty BD box? Hmm, not sure.

The Omorovicza Rejuvenating Night Cream 10ml, I like this brand too so I'm looking forward to trying this. It does sound like it's quite a rich cream though, so I might save this for autumn too 😐

I'm actually really looking forward to trying the Margaret Dabbs Miracle foot cream, I'm guilty of neglecting my feet a little in winter so this will help them get spring / summer ready 💃 straight into my 'use now' pile 😍

BIBBI Swimming Pool Parfum when I tried this perfume last year, I wasn't impressed. But the 2ml sample is really stingey and I thought there was no point in putting it onto vinted so I thought I'd give it another go and I'm so glad I did, I now really like it. It's fresh, cool and awakening, perfect for Spring 🌊

Liberty Tana Meadow perfume, 1.5ml sample. This is gorgeous, definitely my favourite of the two. It just screams summer 🪻

Overall, after saying that this box will go straight onto vinted, after seeing it, I'm now happy with it, even though I will be putting away some for autumn. The perfumes are the stand out for me, but I wish they were bigger then 2ml 🩷

Lovelysheep · 13/04/2026 17:52

I’ve promised DD she can look at trainers in store and spend my vouchers/points there. I feel I’m letting the side down by not using the store perks properly!

I do lust for the days when Liberty had members evenings and there were cocktails and fizz and free stuff on every floor.

Oh wow! That sounds amazing! 😍 Did that stop due to covid?

DidILeaveTheGasOn · 13/04/2026 18:08

Gosh that sounds lovely @Lovelysheep. Feels very times gone by.

countdowntonap · 13/04/2026 18:25

Oh no - I can’t use the foot cream now after learning about the emu oil 🤢

ACAC2023 · 13/04/2026 18:49

Got my box today. The PK can also be used just as a conditioner. Really handy for travel, so happy with this. Bibbi perfume is horrible. I really dislike every Bibbi perfume I’ve ever smelt. I’d be happy if they stopped putting perfumes in the boxes and advents but overall I like the other stuff 🙂

Doglover73 · 13/04/2026 18:54

The pk can be used as conditioner?
Really. That would be amazing my hair does lovevit. X

ACAC2023 · 13/04/2026 19:16

Yes I remember I had a lot of them & hadn’t used any & pretty sure it read you could just use as a conditioner after shampooing too. That’s what I mainly used them for & really suits my hair 🙂

HardyFox · 13/04/2026 19:17

I was disappointed when I read the contents of the box but mine arrived today and actually it's better than I thought. Having time on my hands this afternoon I costed it out at £96.83 and the tubes of hand cream, foot cream and Elasticizer are a good size. Keen to try the night cream, the perfumes are of no interest as lost my sense of smell to Covid (devastating as I loved perfume). I use the foot cream and Elasticizer anyway so not so much of a 'treat' or 'luxury' box, more a workhorse where things will get used but not in a totally excited way.
Loved the contents of the last box (my first one) and have since purchased full sizes of the Suqqu, Sisley hair cream and Votary cream. I had hoped that, being Liberty, we would get more high end and quirky things to try - like the Suqqu which I totally loved from the word go and is unlike anything I've used before, and the Sisley haircare which I would never have tried but am now totally converted to.
I wanted to be thrilled and excited, the best part of this box was the anticipation!
