💄 More Calendars & Spoilers

Rather than making the opening post a mile long, here's a brilliant roundup of lots more advent calendars and the latest spoilers, including Charlotte Tilbury, Jo Malone, Elemis, Lancôme, Tatcha, NEOM, Neal's Yard Remedies, Holland & Barrett, YesStyle and many more as they're announced.

🎅 Happy advent season everyone! 🎁

Here's hoping for lots more spoilers, bargains, discount codes, and maybe a little self-control (although that's already gone for some 😄)

In my snk one last year
100% the Tatcha The serum. In the orange bottle. It is great for my skin and previous to using it I thought Tatcha was over hyped.
I'm on my third bottle. Seems to be a few on Vinted too but not often.

The westman stick blush I also loved

And the then I met you cleansing balm too.

Sorry I'm being a bit thick, but what website it that on please?

Ignore me... Its debenhams site isn't it? Just found it for £40 on Escentual, also with free del so think I will go for that. Thanks x

I'm thinking of also pre-ordering the Harrods over the next few days. I'm the same, nothing has really excited me more. I don't know if it's because we just saw it all in one go. I am still interested in seeing the CB one but I'm thinking that I might buy that one too 🤭

I've still got my Tatcha Vit c still umming and ahhing about whether to sell or keep.

Biggest hit was zelens B12 mask from Liberty. I've bought about 5 of those. I don't know if it does anything anti-aging but the moisture seems to be the right level for me. I'm tolerating retinols this summer ok, the AB and also the PC retinaldehyde (probably spelt wrong).

My favourite things from last year’s Harrods calendar were the U Beauty serum (ordered a second on Vinted), the Evidens mask, the Tatcha night serum (wish it had been bigger) and the Skin Cycles SPF lip tint which I use a lot

I liked the Tatcha Vit C. I'm just coming to the end of it now.

My first 'high end' calendar was the Flannels advent in 2022 which was reduced to about £120 iirc. Trying AB and EGF for the first time that I absolutely couldn't have afforded felt like a right treat!

I totted up the things I would personally definitely use in Harrods BAC and it came to £1081, so it was a no brainer for me to pre-order it in case it should sell out.

I'd definitely try it

It is really nice. I'm fussy and don't usually stay loyal to a product but I do this.

This sounds like another case of a brand dumping the unpopular shades. I’ve seen Sephora so do this before, and cult beauty.

The only thing I’ve tried from Tatcha is the horrible greasy dewy skin cream that they keep putting in everything. It’s put me off the brand a bit.

I think the Cult beauty Patrick TA blush in this year' calender could be exactly this

Waitlist for SNK is open. And here be spoilers at some of the contents https://www.spacenk.com/uk/inside-space/most-wanted/whats-in-the-spacenk-advent-calendar.html?

Unboxing is in 6 days here

Off to watch an inboxing AGAIN 🤣

Why are they still 'predicting' their own contents? It's a really annoying (and juvenile) marketing tactic.

Still, gets folk talking eh...

That is REALLY weirdly written!!

Why is Space NK's marketing so cringe? Is this actually working for anyone? We saw the leak, we know what's in there.

Also, wtf is this? Space NK Micro Travel Bag Charm Blush | Space NK Why would anyone want that? Suspicious that all the reviews are from the past 3 weeks.

I think having spent the last few days obsessively checking here and social media I have reached a conclusion.
Initially was going to be snk for me, CB for my eldest dd and Sephora for youngest.

It is now looking like it will be

GB for me
Boots skincare one for my kbeauty loving youngest DD
On the fence for the eldest but she's more of a perfume person and has a bigger DOD than I do. Potential for the boots fragrance one I think.

Then that leaves me with a hefty portion of AC budget for any edits released on the run up to Christmas.

I mean it's me I could well still change my mind and I am interested to see what the snk fac looks like but it is only good value if you will use/want the suggested RRP and nothing at all is giving me that.

I went in a couple of weeks ago and one of the girls in there was really heavily pushing the micro bag.

I like the bags and have a small one with essentials in my handbag but what use is the micro one haha

I was just thinking the same when I scrolled through the ‘spoilers’, what on earth is with the hideous bag charm?! Surely no one over the age of 12 would like that?! 🥺

By an overly eager intern, possibly? Actually, no, she's the acting copy and editorial manager for SNK.

As an aside, she's currently recruiting and needs a couple of extra folk to join the team (source: LinkedIn)

There's our chance to be influential and work on a top brand BAC, everyone!

I have a few of the SNK bags, but the micro one seems pointless.

According to SNK 17 sold today! Maybe it could be used for a poo bag holder, for those of us with dogs!

Presumably it's the equivalent of the lipbalm keyring a couple of brands are doing - hang your 'top up' product on the outside of your handbag for easy access!!

I have friend who works for SNK and this was the fastest selling Summer Social product, so much so they bought it out in other colours as was originally just the 3 new bag colours.
Apparently really popular for AirPods
