[OvaHere]

New thread. Everyone welcome to join to chat about beauty bargains or just beauty in general.

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

Now we're in June we might be seeing the first Advent reveal before the month is out! Exciting times. 😍

I think I still have 10ml of each (will need to check but I think I did hang on to them). I don't mind them as scents but I'm not crazy about them either and I have so many travel sizes. If you'd like them PM me.

Elemis have 25% off and free delivery.

Sephora also have a sale, and as someone mentioned SNK sale is coming soon. It's definitely summer sale season!

I bought it, sorry, I meant to update what was in it. It was a This Works Sleep Cocoon lotion, a Ful styling cream and I think a Osaki rest day 15ml moisturiser. Unless I've got confused with something else!!!

I got a SF sunlit vanilla travel size and a givenchy prisme libre in the sephora sale. Love prisme libre, I have completely stopped wearing foundation just some mac primer and a dusting of this. The colours do look weird in the pot but blend together imperceptibly. 40% off so £31 instead of £52 any prisme libre fans.

Sorry everyone.. it's look fantastic that have prisme libre on offer, not sephora! I can't keep up with myself sometimes I buy that much stuff.

I find swimming pool nice but only in short doses... do you think you would get through a fb? There are loads of 10ml around as it has been in some edits recently including liberty fresh edit, still on sale.

Fruit captain ok, wasn't a massive fan myself. Wish they did a 10ml of rainbow rose.

I’ve just bought a sample size Valaya from eBay. Fingers crossed!

Maybe as it was mentioned on here, i tried my sample.of fruit captain. It's perfectly pleasant but quite linear. Wouldn't say no to a sample but wouldn't buy it.

New hair beauty box at Boots

I had some LF credit so I’ve ordered the fruity version of the new scent edit. I had previously tried most of the things in the gourmand box, but nothing in the fruity one.

I've been away from the forums for a while being very good, but i think this will get me back in the edit game 🤣

I popped into Selfridges (virtually) last night to take another look at the perfume edit and somehow managed to spend £300 on clothes and a delivery pass for the next year.

Took DC3 (16) rl shopping today, spent far more and felt very grateful I didn’t have to do any trying on clothes in very hot changing rooms in central London! Speaking of cleansers, I did pick up a new BoJ plum-based one in TKMaxx today, to add to my current pile of open products…and a few more Korres shower gels. But it would have been rude to ignore them.

Still thinking about signing up for liberty’s BD. You lot are encouraging some expensive habits!

Worth signing up for the discount on the advent calendar and the kits

👀

@JoRaRaRa I saw that earlier. I think we might get a reveal next month.

Those colours are not screaming ‘Christmas’ to me. Or even whispering it.

@OvaHere well, the fragrance one normally goes on pre-order at the beginning of August, I wonder if it'll be earlier 🤔

@Talisin they're the same colours as last year, I think I prefered it when the beauty one was in the Harrods green. The green with the gold design looks gorgeous 😍

@JoRaRaRa I must have blocked them from my memory! I liked the green one as well - it gave gigantic luxury After Eights vibe.

Gosh an After Eight would be just the thing right now. Mm.

Much preferred the iconic green Harrods box. Last years (and seemingly this years too) are very insipid. Can’t wait for the reveal though.

I'm not sure if those are just a stock photo of last years because they don't want to reveal yet or whether they've stuck with the same colours.

I am thinking that might be a photo of last year’s Harrods calendars. I am excited for the reveal. 😃

Last year was my first Harrods BAC and I was quite disappointed that they didn’t have the green box, I feel it’s more Harrods and more Christmas.

I received my TK Maxx haul and annoyingly they didn’t send the Foreo Luna. I’d seen one (new) on Vinted for a few pounds less but decided to get it from TK Maxx as I was ordering anyway, and now I’ve missed out. On top of that, I’d added stuff I didn’t need to my order to meet the free delivery threshold (£100!)

That’s so annoying @Thelifeofawife - can you return the whole order?

@IlovePond There’s one thing in it that I do want (Neom mini pod), but the rest I am not too bothered about, there was some make up and shower gels that I don’t specifically need I just thought I’d bulk out the order.
If I can return the rest I think I will, I’ve spent far too much recently and am running out of space 🙈
