💄 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, Elemis, Lancôme, Tatcha, NEOM, Neal's Yard Remedies, and many more as they're announced:

Yes, maybe I should lower my expectations. Some of the items will have to be filler items to keep the value to that.

I wonder if it will have some Philip Kingsley and a CT beauty light wand 🤣

🤣 a supersize CT Beauty light wand and some gold plated eyelash curlers!

No email from SNK about the luxury AC. Curious what’s inside! I usually buy the beauty crackers for my team, so waiting for those to be released too!!

I was excited to try the CT Pillowtalk lipstick from Harrods BAC today. First off, it’s Pillowtalk Medium, so different to the original and the texture is dry. I don’t like how it feels on my lips. My usual YSL and Chanel lipsticks are smooth and moisturising, so CT is headed for the bin (unless my sister wants it).

I just made a fantasy list of full size luxe and got to only 14 items before I hit the £1500 rrp so clearly it's not going to be all the things I think should be in there. 😂

😂😂😂 yes! oh and can we add LE or VB or Isamaya eyeshadow palette to the list 🤞
I mean at £410 it’s not an immediate no, bring it on!! 💸

🤣🤣 I love this idea. Pick 24 items, 18 can be full size*, you have £1500 to spend in spacenk. Let's all go shopping and create our luxe lists💃🏻🎉
*Remember that retailers full size is not the same as our full size 🙄

We just need to remember to not check out 🙈🤣

No email either. Very strange. Im Deluxe tier and didnt buy advent this year and also paid for annual postage. 🤷 its a lot of money.

I would buy your luxury advent - can you curate one please?

And also not to do it when on the sauce 😂

The PK would have to literally regrow my thinning hair for it to be worth it!

What if it's everyone whose surnames are A-H and they are sending them out in batches?

JL have the Molton Brown BAC reduced to £180................if you need an excuse for another one 😉

https://www.johnlewis.com/molton-brown-decadent-delights-advent-calendar/p115812730

Absolutely. I am open to luxury brand sponsors who want to be in the Mumsnet BAC.

• list of MN Beauty Advent thread agreed product exclusions apply. No CT wands, eyelash curlers or Elasticizer.

Very odd for Space NK to be announcing this so late in the day. Wondering whether the main calendar isn’t selling well, so they’ve thrown it together last minute to try to claw back some profits!

Unless it contains jewellery, I’m not paying £400+ for a calendar.

Yes. In the Beauty workshop area. I had to ask a CSA to find the edits for me as they weren’t obvious. It was so heavy. Used the Fable and Mane mask on my hair tonight and it is so soft! And no guilt at opening drawers early. 😂
The bits I’m not keen on; CT lip bath and refy brow product , plus eye and face masks are going in Xmas boxes.

I also didn’t get a SNK email, despite buying both calendars last year.

I wondered why there were so many posts since I checked this morning. No SNK email here either. I'm not in the market for an advent that costs over £400 but I really want to know what's in it for that price. It had better be good!

Don’t forget some Sol de janeiro 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I have the email.
I've had one of their BAC every year but didn't go for this one as I was meh about it.
Although the last couple of days I did start thinking maybe I will if they reduce it...
I am a deluxe member
Don't pay for limitless delivery
And my surname begins with a C.

A giant size PK bedazzled elasticizer? Haha.

I'm very intrigued. I am also annoyed as I had made peace with not having one this year.
Although was eyeing up the Selfridges FAC.

I wonder if this is a hybrid FAC and BAC

Considering the Dior advent calendar includes a candle wick trimmer, a snow globe and Christmas tree ornaments for its £6.5k price point, I’ve no idea what counts for premium luxury.

Hi @8books just catching up now. I got the brush and eyelash curler together for £4.93 plus postage on ebay. The perfume was £13.30 plus postage on Vinted.

When I first read you post, I thought you meant you were considering getting Dior. Mildred would have a stroke.

No, no, Mildred has come over to the sparkly dark side now!!

I also do not have a space nk email, but I probably have less than £400 room on my credit card after summer hols, so just as well 😀
