Beauty & Fragrance Advent Calendars- Info/Chat 2026 SPOILERS Thread 2

[OvaHere]

New thread

Guidelines
I'm starting this first one but hoping that when a thread looks close to ending another thread member can set the next one up. This is not working out so well. 😂

To avoid duplicate threads please try to post in the thread that's ending to alert everyone you're setting up a new one.

Other members check who was first to offer and whether a new one is live.
It might be an idea to keep a list of advents that are live in the OP and later on which are sold out. This can be copy/pasted/edited when a new thread is started.

It probably goes without saying but please be courteous and patient with each other. This thread will have spoilers and please no judging of others for their purchasing choices. Participation in the threads is optional.

Ah I had the opposite experience one of thd small ones in the recent fragrance edit stopped spraying properly and they refunded the whole thing! Probably depends who you get on the day.

I might send it to them and tell them to cross check people's email addresses. You'd think the same system could flag up both 🤷🏻‍♀️

Charlotte Tilbury I'll never buy from again as I returned something and the tracking showed they had received it but it was then 'lost' in the warehouse and they refused to refund me so I was out of pocket. Just kept saying they didn't have it even though i had the proof.

Customer services in general are getting worse... enshittification.

That's terrible.

That was one of the issues, each time I spoke to them, it was someone different and I was going round in circles for months with them. I think they hoped I'd get bored and disappear or wouldn't know my rights.

Im afraid I can’t do that - I had F&M last year and it was really good. The box was gorgeous, and HUGE! 😆

Does anyone know the price of the F&M one? And is there a wait list?

@Housewife2010 - that’s terrible re: F&M - it confirms for me what I have been suspecting for a while, that some companies fill their a/cs with stuff they have got for free/old stock 🙀

Would be interesting to know what sort of repsonse that would get, probably the usual scripted spiel🤷🏼‍♀️

F&M it will be £275

Is it wrong to want the F & M just for the box 😪

Am on the list for SpaceNK.

Also like the M&S AC.

Wow, that’s terrible! As if you could have stopped them losing it on their end!!

Have the M&S BAC contents been revealed? I've scrolled back ane can't see anything.

No. It's usually mid October.

If anyone is on Instagram Look fantastic have posted clues/easter eggs. Today’s reel is a Cluedo game. I’m not the best at solving clues though so I’m not much help.

The cream is still available from the F&M advent https://benamor1925.com/products/rosto-miracle-face-cream-50ml Looking at the ingredients it's more a hand cream, wouldn't pop it on my face.

on TikTok from an account called Naomi Mizrahi

Two Cult products, the Westman mascara and a Patrick Ta blush

I am worried that spacenk Fragrance AC will be announced too late like last year. I will just buy one FAC, most likely JL one on preorder but snk wouldn't reveal contents by then which worries me, then will buy snk bac,and thats my budget gone. Then there's boots skincare one which one must have. Then there's flannels perfume crackers to buy during Black Friday. £500 minimum there, and I am supposed to save for a bloody car.

On the plus side them leaving it late is probably why it went on discount because people bought others first.

Ooo which blush?

Just rewatched - She’s Giving and it’s full size

I took a couple of still images of the blush shade and also the box to try and work out a couple of other products. I think the peek of yellow could be a Byoma product. There's a peek of orange too which I'd like to think could be Sulwhasoo but maybe a bit bright, so perhaps Drunk Elephant (do they sell DE?)

Not at all! The boxes are gorgeous, I had F&M a few years ago and still use the box every year, I put chocs in it! Admittedly the draws are big for your average Lindt truffle!! If you can wait till after Xmas someone will sell an empty one, but it would be more luxurious to have it before and enjoy the contents!

Thank you @MrsBnow12 - I don't have that shade so I'm happy with that 🥰 Patrick Ta and Westman Atelier are 2 of my favourites right now.

@OvaHere I think you're right about the yellow being byoma. Could the orange be tatcha? I'm not ruling out sulwhasoo, just throwing another name into the ring 🤣 I'm off to compare to both boxes now.
