Sorry everyone! I didn't realise how near the end of the old thread we were.

What on earth have you all done with yourselves for the last few hours? 😂

As always everyone welcome to join in and hopefully this is the thread we see the first 'big' BAC reveal. 😍

Oh my mistake - it’s up to 25% off premium skincare

Edited

Exactly! Which is still a good price, of course - but curious about the 25%

Sorry, I think we are all cross posting 😀

Sminty2 · 03/07/2026 17:17

@Fillybuster sorry I must’ve muddled my codes 😊 still great value.

Hicupping · 03/07/2026 17:31

I got lucky dip no email and it's been hours. Sent me a 'we saw you looking' needy email though.

user593 · 03/07/2026 18:42

I still don’t have the wheel 😅 I got a good win on Premium Bonds today though so I’ve probably had enough excitement for one day.

ClutteredPalace · 03/07/2026 19:08

I got a spin the wheel despite not having bought anything for a couple of months. They must be trying to entice me back. I got 15% off like nearly everyone else.

Cyclingmummy1 · 03/07/2026 19:08

Is this the same gift as at the H beach club events? Which means I can spend on anything next weekend.

@Cyclingmummy1 - yes it is!

Fillybuster · 03/07/2026 19:40

So is this tote mini like the one in @MrsBnow12 ’s pic?

LightandBreezy · 03/07/2026 19:43

@Fillybuster yes it is - weird they call it a beach tote, but I guess it could fit a bikini 😂

namechange0998776554799000 · 03/07/2026 19:56

Tatcha have sent me an offer for a free 75ml Essence with a purchase of a moisturiser. Has anyone used the essence and can recommend?

🤣🤣🤣

Thanks! It’s cute but I really don’t need that. Good, because I really don’t need anything at the moment and now I can stop thinking about it!

namechange0998776554799000 · 03/07/2026 20:11

@user593 I don't suppose you've tested the Merit mascara yet? Sephora have 20% off and it's been on my list of things to try.

@SheilaFentiman i started the B&B lotion just before I left - it’s lovely, isn’t it? I was quite surprised, not sure why. Given how much I like the RoundLab spf and suspect will like Shiseido too, am also tempted to get another. Huge amount of good stuff in that box.

Arrgh. Please someone slap me. 2 hours ago I said I’d never get through my spf backlog and now I’m talking about buying more….

Too much sun & rosé - I can’t be held accountable!

We're meant to wear spf every time we go outside @Fillybuster , even when it's cloudy or if we're in the car - that's what I keep telling myself anyway, in the hope that i will use up all of my stash. I'm trying to remember to apply it to my hands as well as my face when I'm out and about ☀️🌤☁️

I haven’t yet. If I wear makeup tomorrow I’ll report back!

@IlovePond excellent!

I’ve just tested the 20% off on it though and it doesn’t work. Merit and Rhode are almost always excluded which is why I have Merit in my 10% off list (it won’t let you add Rhode to that either!).

Oh that's right, thank you I will wait and see what you think before I take the plunge then!

Thelifeofawife · 03/07/2026 20:56

Well I absolutely didn’t need anything more, and definitely shouldn’t have spent any more, but I’ve gone for the Harrods GWP deal 🙈😅
I got another Tom Ford quad which was reduced to £37 (not that I’ve tried the one I bought from Cheshire oaks a few months back yet!), some more Eborian CC cream, some more SDJ body wash, and I finally got the Dior addict glass in rose charms (it was OOS when they last had a GWP), so it’s only the TF quad that I went rogue on, and it was a bargain 😇

I’ve had a day in the sun, drinking champagne and wine, it was inevitable that I would cave 😅

OvaHere · 03/07/2026 21:46

Thanks @MrsBnow12 for the scent tote alert on the other thread. I caved and ordered.

BUT the checkout was very weird and took 3 times before it would let me pay so I'm prepared for it to be a Harrods glitch thing and end up with a refund because they weren't really in stock.

@Thelifeofawife that sounds like a lovely day.

I've started wearing it every day, even if I'm just walking past a window 😂 I'm terrible for forgetting to apply it, so if I make it part of my routine I'm less likely to get caught out. I use my facial spfs on my hands as well.

LightandBreezy · 03/07/2026 22:36

And a thank you from me too @MrsBnow12 I also bought the fragrance tote. I think the fear of not getting the Harrods FAC got to me! I had it sitting in my basket for a bit whilst I hurriedly looked up the scents I don't know on Fragantica, then just panicked and pressed buy. Good trial run for August perhaps...

IDontHateRainbows · 03/07/2026 22:55

I managed to get the tote too..it had sold out the other day. I got all sweaty and excited trying to get my sale through, like a bloody addict or something. This is like an early version of the FAC which sold out in hours.

JoRaRaRa · 03/07/2026 23:23

I also saw @MrsBnow12 update on the other thread and immediately bought the scent bag just now. Shame it doesn't stack with the gwp.
