New thread. Welcome oldies and newbies.

I'm expecting this thread to be busy as we head towards both advents and autumn releases.

There's a dedicated advent thread for advent calendars here to keep up to date with reveals, waitlists etc.

I like the look of that! I've used the 111Skin one before and it was gorgeous!

Out of stock already, or hasn't it been released yet?

Let us know how the K18 is @OvaHere. I'm using the ordinary at the moment too and I'm really pleased with it - my hairs completely stopped shedding - but I was intrigued by the K18 one, especially the claims about fewer greys!

How long have you used TO? I've only used it for a couple of weeks so far.

It's showing as add to bag for me. I do not need more face masks though.

Showing out of stock for me too now, that was fast 😳

It's still available on the app

Thanks, it is for me now, don't know why I just got the notify me button before. I don't need it, I just like to know I could buy it if I wanted 😂

It showed oos for me too and then appeared as add to basket!

It's been about 6 weeks. My hair improved really quickly after I started using it, although there could be other factors. I've been on Mounjaro for almost a year so it might be just that I've got through the shedding phase. I also started taking collagen at the same time, plus I've been consistently using kerastase genesis shampoo & conditioner, and using Elasticiser once a week 😆

I'm well past the extreme shedding phase. I lost a lot whilst on MJ but I've been off it for over a year now and my hair has bounced back a bit but is still quite thin in places. I'm not expecting miracles but hoping for a bit of improvement.

I’d also love to hear what works for the both of you as I’ve lost close to 50kg on MJ and it feels like it’s mostly gone from my hair 😅😭

user593 · 14/08/2026 14:21

I should add I’m about to start the Rehab Matcha Scalp Oil for this purpose as I got a couple of bottles in the Boots £10 Tuesday.
The reviews are good so 🤞

My slip pillowcase has arrived from the SNK sales. Weird how my first order i placed and with the same samples didnt arrive with them, but my second one did. Ahwell, cant wait to use my new pillowcase😃

user593 · 14/08/2026 14:46

My SNK Shimmering Spice orders arrived as well. I like the scent more than I thought I would (not a big fan of Christmas scents). A word of warning if you bought any as gifts, two had sale labels that were hard to get off (although I managed to pry them off carefully with the tip of a sharp knife) and one of the boxes is ripped and scuffed. I did get all the samples I asked for though.

I’ve had similar happen to me - it makes no sense!

@OvaHere this is the Dior silver gift. I picked mine up a few days ago,

My SNK Sisley set arrived with a big sale label saying £204, which makes me feel even better about getting it for £146!

Thanks. I quite like that. It would be useful for travelling.

There's nothing I really want from Dior at the moment so I'm trying to hold off buying something just to get the gift sent.

Did you pick up from store? Can you do that without making a purchase?

My stuff has arrived too. I've not opened it yet.

Grrr. My SNK order has been dispatched except for the Christmas neom candle and a body lotion. I have a sinking feeling I won’t see them!

Oh that’s really lovely and practical 😍 much better than deluxe samples that I’ve received

IDontHateRainbows · 14/08/2026 18:16

I stupidly checked out on SNK and forgot to tick the limitless next day delivery box, so my item hasn't been sent yet. They are sneaky as they should recognise the account has limitless and default to next day.
Ah well something to look forward to next week. I wish the advent calendars would start releasing, feels like forever. I'm sure this time last year the very first ones had released .
