@OvaHere please could I have an invite to the FB chat group? Thank you

Hi all! Does anyone know of any discount codes that work with the Look Fantastic BAC? I’ve tried searching the thread but I wasn’t able to find anything.

I will set up the next thread, guys. Give me a few minutes.

@Thelifeofawife

Perhaps change your username to 'Thelifeofanenabler'? I've just bought the Elle one 😂

The Space NK calendar looks beautiful. I really want to want it, but there are far too many things I just won’t use. I will wait and see if it gets reduced.

I think someone said that it was this weekend last year that Harrods’ did a small discount on theirs?

That’s a brilliant idea, I never thought of giving beauty products to food banks or women’s refuges.

🤣🤣

My work here is done 😇

Can I please have the Facebook details too?

Here it is:

https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/style_and_beauty/5577582-beauty-advent-calendars-thread-8-for-spoilers-offers-and-stock-updates

Btw: Sorry for the different thread title - I didn’t copy the original across and was scared I might lose the post I had made if I skipped back later. I used the title that MN suggested and can’t edit it now.

Just watched the Miss Boux video and sooo tempted! But I resisted, so that's another £187 that can go towards the Harrods home fragrance calendar 😇

@AppleDumplingWithCustardWhat a lovely idea. They look beautiful.

My Harrods BAC just arrived. I love it! I've checked all drawers and all looks fine. Can't wait to open it day by day and try all the products along with everyone else on the opening thread!

Mine roo. I opened it all straight away. Will keep most of this one. In the past I've sold 1/2 to 2/3 to justify the cost, but i just got notice of being put on a permanent contract at work so what better way to celebrate?

Congratulations on being made permanent @IDontHateRainbows - that's one in the eye for the horrible boss who made life a misery for you last year 🍾🥂

It is indeed thanks! Maybe eau de fear ( the perfume i wore at that time, prada paradoxe radical essence, and strongly associate with anxiety,) should be worn again now to make a new scent memory!

Final ebay/vinted list of usernames is now sent! Please don't send through any more usernames, apologies if you missed it.

If anyone would like the list, please PM me rather than tagging me here.

@AppleDumplingWithCustardthis is so lovely. I don’t do Vinted or eBay and have some recent and sealed teen / breakout items I won’t use (inkey, decleor, henrikson, Q&A). Would you be willing to inbox me the name and location of the charity? No problem if not, but I’d be happy to send to them (or you) if that works. Don’t want to make extra work for anyone!

It’s a lovely thing you / the charity are doing x

I’ve been seriously enabled by you all and bought the Elle AC too. 🤩 Thank you 🤩

Such excitement at Dumpling Towers! My Boots 24 Days of Luxe AC came yesterday and today I received both Harrods BAC and Glossybox. No damaged boxes and all drawers full. Just my F&M to come now but that will be in October apparently. I’m now deciding when to open them. Definitely one in December and a Jadvent as that’s my birthday month. Now pondering - shall I also have a Novvent and a Febvent? 🤔

Yes 💃🏻

If you have a Boots nearby you can also pop things in the hygiene bank donation box there. Usually handily located near the recycling boxes

My replacement Liberty bits came, Mr Muse has swapped the Sisley so I will be getting into the short-dated one soon! The replacement had a price sticker on it, but the cheeky devils have used a marker to cross out the price!

I don't envy whoever had to go through the supplies, sharpie in hand...

@AppleDumplingWithCustard A Novvent sounds wonderful, my birthday is in November...

It's also the fact that they would think it acceptable as a premium store with an expensive item not to at least peel the tag off! I can't imagine that Sisley would be impressed either as it rather down values their product - would it make you want to pay full price even if you love it?
