Thanks to everyone who regularly contributes and keeps us whizzing through these threads.

Thanks @Doglover73 - currently putting stuff in my basket, but will I check out?

BTW, the 241 offer doesn’t have to be the same item x 2.

Is All Beauty legit? I actually saw yesterday they have the Tatcha balm cheapest but I've never heard of them so I wasn't sure whether to trust them

I bought some milk hair products a bit ago. Im a bit miffed as they are sat in my wardrobe and now on the bogof but at a few quid more. I looked into them and found no cause for concern. Estee Lauder Beautiful is bogof. I bought one off vinted a bit ago as it was one id used from being a teen upto 5ish years ago. Love it again. But have a tonne of perfumes and 3/4 of a bottle left. Do I need another? 🤣

Boots £10 Tuesday today has some good deals on EA, Fenty, EL, the Ordinary and no7.

Fillybuster · 02/06/2026 08:07

All beauty are legit, but there’s something up with the 2for1 offer at checkout - it’s applying a discount, but not the full amount. Or at least, not in my basket. So it’s more like a 3/4 discount on the second item than a proper bogof. Still a good deal if it’s something you really want, but overall, it’s not quite the bargain it looks on the surface.

IlovePond · 02/06/2026 08:09

For me @Fillybuster, it’s giving me the cheaper product free.

I have got as far as the payment page in the interests of research but am not checking out.!

£25 c/b on £100 spend at Harvey Nichols at Quidco today - you have to opt in to the offer - limited sign ups available.

Checking in for thread 16 - wowsers 😍 Thanks Ova 🙂
I went through all of my beauty stuff yesterday and really don't need anything for a good while. I'm hoping no 'I absolutely must have this' items or edits come out this month and probably next month, so I can hopefully have a good period of no spending before AC season 🤞🏻

This is the most recent one. Link is JL but it's available in a few places. It was on offer in Boots last week.

I also have this one which is more of a sheer skin tint but also very good.

Hi Quidco have 25.00 cash back on a 100 spend at Harvey Nichols. You need to opt in to get the cash back

@OvaHere what shade are you. I think you have fair skin? Chat gp says b10 and Findation says b20. I have netural light skin. I’m not convinced by chat g.p as it got the shade wrong for the Armani foundation, luckily I had bought a sample.

I’m waiting for the Cult Beauty June holiday edit. Loved the 2024 one. Didn’t think the 2035 one was that great, though now I’ve tried some Glow Recipe and Allies of Skin I would buy it.

The All Beauty 2FOR1 isn't working for me, so I'm guessing either Tatcha, 'New In' or products that are already discounted aren't eligible.

Actually, I think it's only the 380 products that you see if you click 'shop now' where the offer is advertised - not everything on the site. Still plenty included in there, but not for me unfortunately

JoRaRaRa · 02/06/2026 08:44

@BakeOffRewatch I got the Spacenk travel edit in 2024, it came with a hair gwp and another travel gwp, it was a good buy. I had said that I'd buy one this year, but I go away on Thursday and it's not been released yet. I thought they came out in May. June seems a bit late for travel kits. I think I wanted to get the cult beauty one last year but it sold out before I managed to buy it.

I have B00 in the Glow Foundation which I think is the lightest. I'm very pale and it's a good colour on me.

I've got Br12 in the tint. None were a perfect match in this but as it's so sheer it works fine. This one leans a little pinky/cool.

I think it was June last year as I'm sure I was holiday when it came out and it was waiting for me when I returned. 😂

@Lonely12 this is B00

VCs is doing £5 CB on £60 spend, plus £2.50 towards VIP £5

The VIP £5 min spend has gone from £5 to £15 now :-(

Yes, looking at those links that bakeoff posted, looks like they came out in June. I have quite a bit of credit with CB so if I like that one, it's not too bad as I won't need to spend any real money 😉 What did you think of the AoS SPF? I've heard mixed reviews for it and I have 1 in my stash.

Arrearing50 · 02/06/2026 09:34

I love the Zoeva eye liners…hmmm it would be wrong to get that liberty Father’s Day kit and steal it…the kat b eye product more than makes the kit worth it…

Doglover73 · 02/06/2026 09:37

Price going up.
Im not buying. Have loads of haircare x

Thanks for the new thread. I’m more of a lurker but I’ve learnt so much about skincare from this thread

Same here

I wasnt keen on the Allies spf. Was ok but not wowed. Gel like. X

There’s a new Liberty men’s beauty kit out. I would like to try the eye cream and there’s a few bits that I would use myself. In fact I’m considering getting this for my DH and leaving him with the aftershave and wash bag and keeping everything else for myself. 😂. It’s a good price £76 (bd) which is less than the price of the eye serum. Annoyingly it doesn’t work with the gwp. I might wait to see if tomorrow it works with the gwp when it properly launches.
