Thank you so much!

I'm in Bicester Village today. No doubt I will get tempted by the 😈

Thank you , really appreciate it .

Thanks for the new thread @IlovePond

Thank you @IlovePond

Thank you for the new thread @IlovePond 😘

I'm sorry to hear about your DFIL @pinkchampagne1 - sending love to you and your family ❤️🕊

Thank you for the new thread @IlovePond 😍

I've just had a perfume listing deleted from Vinted as they said it was used - it isn't! It's a bottle of Shalimar that came as a set with a body lotion. I've gifted the body lotion but didn't keep the box, so the perfume is unboxed. I'd just accepted an offer too, but they pulled the perfume before the buyer accepted 😠

I have loads of k-beauty stuff to list, but might just list on the FB selling page if anyone wants to give k-beauty a try.

Thabks for the new thread (just checking in so I don’t lose my people).

Today I’m mostly checking all my make-up products for Talc (I had no idea!) 😱

Thank you @IlovePond for the new shiny thread 🥰

Yay.. new thread 💄 🎄

Thank you @IlovePond

I had one from the Harrods calendar deleted during the week, I appealed and it was reinstated. I explained it was out the box (which was also in the photo) to show the amount of liquid and it was brand new.

Thank you for the new thread @IlovePond

I am still without advent and no plans to get one but waiting on content of SpaceNK advent and some good edits hopefully.

Space NK contents have been revealed

Thank you for the new thread @IlovePond 💐

Thanks @IlovePond.

My Selfridges has just arrived but has already been taken from me for checking and hiding until December.

Space NK fragrance only, if v they do one. Sorry I should have specified

Thanks for new thread⭐️ Still have Elle in the back of my mind. Unless theres a better discount than the £10 off, i really should stay away. But who knows👀

Thank you @IlovePond and all else who went before and will go forward again very grateful 🩷

Thank you @IlovePond for setting up the new thread. I’m not 💯 sure which AC’s i’ve ordered because I went a bit mad but I’m looking forward to seeing what has arrived whilst I’m away.

I’m tempted by CB but I can’t buy it without. Discount code! I am also pondering SNK! 😬

Thanks @IlovePond for the new thread.

Still undecided - currently have only bought Boots 12 day fragrance, and a Hawkstone beer one for DH.
I’m still hoping LF will do a 2nd drop of their fragrance one . Will probably buy the Boots Luxe for Dd instead of a stocking but nothing is floating my boat for me so to speak. I would still like Elemis but hoping for a reduction as time goes on.

Thanks @IlovePond and hello everyone.

Do you think Sephora will have a lower priced BAC? I bought the lower priced ones for my nieces (about £60 I think) last year which were appreciated, this year I'd be willing to spend up to £100, as it seems that there are some very good ones. Nieces are 18 (very into makeup and skincare, loved the LF Lip edit that I bought her recently -said she loved all the brands in there) and 24 likes make up but not as much into skincare and not as "discriminatory" or as organised with her make up as her younger sister, liked the Charlotte Tilbury stuff I bought her last year).

I am looking at the Glossybox and the ASOS calendar, the Look Fantastic one is a bit pricier than I wanted (although might consider if it is really a big step up), but it's really tricky as someone that doesn't own or wear any makeup. If Sephora do a lower price calendar every year, I'll wait for that, otherwise I'll just get on and pick a calendar.

Thanks for the new thread @IlovePond.

Just wondering if anyone here has got their hands on the physical Sephora Faves advent?

My Space NK just arrived. I was definitely not going to open the box and have dp hide it for me when he got home from work. Somehow the box has become opened and I may or may not have sneaked a quick sniff of Missing Person. I think I like it… I don’t instantly hate it anyway. It’s changed to quite grassy on my skin. I have excellent self control though as I did not try the Debaser in Bloom. I will try leave some excitement for December!

As an aside I was sitting on the bed with the Sephora page open about to go for it when my bed broke from under me. The advent calendar gods have spoken. My second calendar fund has been spent on a replacement bed 😭 I’m trying to spin it to myself as I’ll have a lovely, non squeaky, non breaking bed to open my calendar on in December!
