💄 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.

👉 https://beauty-detective.com/category/beauty-advent-calendars/ 👈

🎅 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 😄)

It does already have the Paula's choice retinol treatment in, do you think they'd also do the ab retinol serum? It could also be the eye cream, cleansing balm, vit c serum or maybe the rich cream. I'd be so excited if it was the elixir serum, but I don't think there's much chance of that 🤣 I feel we've not had any proper spoilers from CB for a while.

That's a good point. Probably won't have the AB retinol then. I really like PC though.

I was hoping at least one major calendar would have it this year and I could stock up via Vinted. There's still HN to go - that will probably have an AB product.

2 advent calendars ordered, one more I want, 1 beauty icons set and a travel set. Out my list into AI for it to sort me. Over 110 items. I asked it what I can use to treat melasma and it’s given me a full regime for morning and evening and recommended what I shouldn’t use. I’ve asked it what I should gift to my teenage daughter. It’s been very helpful! Until I asked if I should add AB The Rich Cream and it told me quite clearly that I don’t need to spend any more money!

‘Your current routine is absolutely flawless. It is medically backed, beautifully hydrating, and perfectly balanced. You do not need to spend any more money. Save that budget, stick to the Master Routine we printed out.’

I think it must have been talking to my husband!

It really was and they do some amazing fragrance boxes, I bought the recent one and they had the Matiere Premiere discovery set reduced by 40% in the archives - the one with Crystal Saffron, Radical Rose and Parisian Musc.
Free delivery to Ireland is €150 so always look through the archives to make up my order.

How is the recent box? There are a few fragrances in there that they only sell online. I wasnt sure on this release

DidILeaveTheGasOn · Today 21:07

@Nomorechocs omg as if it actually said that, you must have a different friendship with your AI than I have with mine, it's always going on about a cheeky little luxury purchase here and there! It helps me spend my Liberty credit! When it decided I had enough make up, it suggested jewellery...

I have only tried the D’orsay which I tested in Liberty and know I like. I have listed the encelade for sale as know I don’t like it and may keep the rest for a fragrance Frankenstein advent as seem to have picked up lots of samples recently so working my way through those

Talking of EU advents I've just remembered I really wanted the Niche Beauty one last year but walked myself back from the edge even after I discovered a 20% discount code due to already having bought too many.

Need to look out for that one as it could be a contender again.

I’ve just gone back and looked at last years and it was definitely interesting, brands I don’t know so would make it more fun . And on the 8th November it had 25% off bringing it in at 258 . So I def going to mark my calendar for this one so thank you for this it’s cheered me up !

The Niche beauty advent calendar is interesting. I bought two Theramid serums from there last year but the brand wasn't well known so I wasn't entirely confident of the products.

Yes that was the discount. It was more than I remembered but full price the BAC is closer to Vogue pricing. By November I'd bought far too much and couldn't bring myself to do it.

At the moment I'm coveting a lot less than last year so it's a maybe. There is Black Friday deals to factor in though too - they happen around about that time.

Some people have AI boyfriends and girlfriends.

You have an AI enabler. His name is Kevyn and he will also carry heavy bags (virtually). 😂

I've started my spreadsheet, and also did some tidying and sorting this week - after being horrified about how much stuff I already have, it's focussed me a bit on what I'm looking for (and need to NOT order multiple advent calendars!). So at the minute, Elle is top of the list for me, followed by Harrods.

I'm interested to see what else gets announced, but I'm almost hoping there's nothing too exciting 😅
