Welcome back everyone to the new thread and hello to any newbies - join us now in time for the autumnal fun. 🍂💄🌂

As always when the Advent threads are running hot this thread is a little quieter but holiday releases, sets and edits are just around the corner. I'm super excited to be going to Sephoria London in October - I still can't believe I lucked out getting a ticket.

Some exciting homegrown news -after a few technical hiccups the FB group is now searchable (but private) MN Beauty Chat Swap/Trade/Sell.* *For those interested in the group we have a few joining rules you will be asked to abide by. Thank you @MrsBnow12 @CinderellaParker for your help.

Embarrassingly I haven’t even opened my cb overnight edits yet, they’re just stacked under my bed alongside quite a few other purchases I haven’t had time to sort through. I feel like I might have picked up some bad habits over the past 7 months or so since finding these threads!

Might be getting confused between threads : did someone mention a new Selfridges beauty edit has just launched? Can’t find anything on their website (although I have just picked up some new REISS tops in the sale whilst searching. Oops).

No you are not going mad - I think @IDontHateRainbows mentioned an edit.
I also looked online and couldn’t see anything - not that I need to buy anything more

IDontHateRainbows · 20/09/2026 17:12

Yes, I am the lucky person who got the selfridges edit in store yesterday just landed.

There's around 15 or so items in, good mix of makeup/skincare/fragrance too many to list everything but highlights are trinny serum, hourglass pressed powder, plur vanilla skin and a 2787 perfume. Selfridges boxes can be hit or miss but this one's a belter!

Is this box available online? What’s the name of it?

It doesn't seem to be online yet. It's called the ultimate beauty edit. I have seen this before with selfridges where they put stuff in store and the website is just a few days behind. Sales assistant said it had just hit the shelves yesterday.

Thank you, lovely! 🥰 I might pop into the store tomorrow to have a look. Would you be able to share a photo with us? xx

Sadly it's all been taken out and packed away - I'll see if I can retrieve the photo of the label on the back with the contents.

I went in to Selfridges in Manchester City centre today and sadly there was no sign of a new beauty edit. I was do ready to buy it based on the review above!

Oh, I was going to pop in to the Mcr store tomorrow to have a look too...

Addictedtobeauty · 20/09/2026 23:04

@keepincool worth a look if you’re nearby- they might put them out overnight. I’ll be keeping my eyes on the website as won’t be near a physical store again for a while.

For those people lucky enough to have dogs in their life - Rituals have a new beauty range for our canine friends 🐩

https://www.rituals.com/en-gb/collection/dog-care

I thought my morning email on this was fab “at last, it’s here, the dog range” - have irate owners been picketing Rituals stores, demanding pampering for their pets? 😀

SheilaFentiman · 21/09/2026 08:28

Thanks @AncoraAmarena the appreciate had randomly signed me out. Most of the things lurking in my basket (except the Sarah Creal) are discounted. Hmmm…

The new Westman Atelier foundation is included in this, which is good as it's been excluded from most discount codes. It takes it down from £65 to £52, which is still pricey but I'm tempted.

Has anyone got it and can recommend?

No. I'm tempted as I have some vouchers but I must not buy more foundation just yet.

I have it, it's as great as everyone says - sorry! Natural looking, long lasting perfection. I bought it a few weeks ago as I had £50 points burning a hole in my wallet so it only cost me £15. It's definitely my new favourite foundation.

Sali Hughes did a really good indepth review of it on Instagram, if you haven't seen it. That's what made me take the plunge.

Thanks @AncoraAmarena, I've seen a few really positive reviews and I've got £15 points to spend so I think I'll go for it

Nooooo you're supposed to say it's terrible and we don't need it. 😂

SNK's free samples also include the Allies of Skin Peptide & GF serum that's in the Revolve 12 day BAC, in case anyone is weighing that up.

Of course, samples are not guaranteed...

I tried the WA foundation a few weeks ago in London and it is lovely 🥰 I've bought a bottle and a travel size of the plum tonic perfume. I feel like there was something I really wanted but I can't think what it was now 😮‍💨

Doglover73 · 21/09/2026 10:36

I want the prequel oil cleanser. Its not included in the 20% off. A bit new i presume. Have a £10 voucher so will get using that
