💄 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 😄)

The Good Genes lactic version is definitely worth a try. The glycolic is too much for me too but the lactic one was brilliant. I woke up with noticeably better skin in the morning after every time I used it.

SNK is not for me. I haven’t watched the video as I am away with little internet but read the list of contents - I thought last year’s wasn’t very good but - for me - this is dire for £275!

So far have scratched the following from my
’I must have it !list
fenwicks (thought sizes were too small )
spacenk (Meh)
Liberty (nice but have a lot of it already )
Fortnum's (nice but again not enough to make me go for it Yepoda (was hanging on for this but disappointed with reveal )
I’m on the fence with LF, CB and Glossybox
Harrods is no 1 for me atm think I’ll crack on and buy it
The computer also said yes to elle and surprisingly selfridges BAC …might wait and see if elle gets discounted a later stage …do we think that’s possible ?

The thing that's concerning me now with those glossybox reveals is that they total up to £369, more than half the value, in just the 6 released spoilers. I think it might be full of duds but I'd love to be wrong.

Also you're all right, I'm thinking of what I could spend £275 on instead of SNK and there are many other things I would prefer. Got to stop thinking of the value of bits I want and remember there are lots I don't

Planning With Crystal has her Liberty AC unboxing up and is somehow making me look forward to it more than Random Lifestyle Vlog did. I'm definitely easily influenced 😂

@Benny12 My research says Elle is unlikely to be discounted, especially from the £10 off if you are in the waitlist. I’m not going to risk waiting when realistically even if it does get discounted, it could only be maybe another £10.

Depends what you compare it with. There will always be a few fillers but you need to take the price into consideration.

Im sure we will see some Aveda, Espa and Iconic London stuff in there to fill up the box a bit.

We will probably get a Rituals product, a candle and im sure Avant again.

I felt that a lot of people compared LF with CB and SNK last year for example, which was a bit unfair. Same goes for GB.

Its a budget calender.

Space NK for 275 pounds however....

Space NK seriously meh (for me).. even tho Lilly did her best to flog it to us 😂.. £275 is SO much money, it’s got to be so much better if they want to charge that! Also where’s the candle? Cheapskates!

I'm in two minds re Spacenk now. For me the only DUDs are the eyelash curler ( i have 4 already) and the eyebrow gel which I could regift. Whilst the other items aren't necessarily the most exciting, I will use them all. I need to have a word with myself and figure out whether it's expensive stuff I'm unlikely to repurchase that i want this year or more affordable products where I might find a holygrail product. I need to go back to making lists.

LOL, She did a very good job, she almost had me convinced

@OvaHere @JoRaRaRa I’m currently in the process of trying to set up the next thread but I’ve not done it before so I’m just updating and testing all of the links then I’ll try to post. If I flop I’ll come back and let you know so you can save us 😅

Thanks v much @Thelifeofawife I did just set one up with the links and prices refreshed but if you'd rather take it on I'll hold off making it live.

DS bought me the Harrods fragrance one as soon as it came out - as he was upset he missed it last year and it didn’t come back in stock
I am beyond grateful

I don’t mind either way. I think I’m good to go now so don’t mind doing it, but can also save it and update for the next thread instead if you want to publish yours (I’m a rookie so won’t take offence 😅)

Am I the only one who doesn't rate Skin Rocks? Packaging is horrible, the products with pumps have broken on me and there's really nothing special unless I'm missing something.

Nothing is grabbing me AC -wise. I've ordered Harrods FAC and Anthropologie to boost my stash, but I am just not tempted by the big hitters. Perhaps I'm just old and grumpy 😄

Happy for you to have your turn. I'll PM you and see if I can share my links just in case there's some I added you can use.

Last years Clarins 12 day advent is available on Escentual for £47.50 using code Escentual25
contents: Great price if you use the products.

• Clarins Beauty Flash Balm 50ml
• Clarins Lip Comfort Oil - 04 - Pitaya 7ml
• Clarins Total Eye Lift 7ml
• Clarins Moisture-Rich Body Lotion 30ml
• Clarins Hydrating Gentle Foaming Cleanser 30ml
• Clarins Cryo-Flash Cream-Mask 15ml
• Clarins Tonic Bath & Shower Concentrate 30ml

• Clarins SOS Primer White 10ml
• Clarins Lip Perfector 21 - Soft Pink Glow 5ml
• Clarins Exfoliating Body Scrub for Smooth Skin 30ml
• Clarins Velvet Cleansing Milk 50ml.

I'm quite happy to have a lot of cheaper products, as long as they're decent sizes, in a budget calendar. One of my favourite products last year was a Ciroa body butter because it smelled so nice and made my skin feel great and I've gone back and repurchased, unlike the more expensive skincare in the high end calendars. I like a mix of expensive treats and far more purse friendly, everyday items hence me needing more than one calendar.

thanks @Nomorechocs….you are most probably right …

@Thelifeofawife @OvaHere thank you ladies for sorting out the thread continuation 🥰 I've had an awful few days. My dad is really unwell and it's been v stressful 😔 Looks like it could be a rough ride for the next couple of weeks. I'm meant to be going to London next weekend and now I'm worried about what might happen whilst I'm away.

I've just watched really Ree's Spacenk vid. There's a few things I wouldn't mind picking up, I'll have to update my spreadsheet and work out if it'll be better on my pocket if I buy the AC and sell off what I don't want rather than trying to pick up the items on vinted, we all know with buyers protection and p&p, it soon adds up.

Sorry to hear your dad is unwell @JoRaRaRa. I hope the situation improves.

Sorry to hear you’re going through it. I hope your dad’s health improves 💐

Sorry to hear about your dad @JoRaRaRa, I hope he's on the mend soon 💐

New thread for when this one has finished 😬

@JoRaRaRa Sorry to hear about your Dad, I hope he’s on the mend soon. Also hope you’re okay for your London trip, what a worry for you 😌
