Elemis are now offering a Full size Pro collagen Glow Boost exfoliator 100ml (Β£59)with each purchase of the Advent calendar.
Having looked closely at the M&S one this evening am sorely tempted by that as well.

JoRaRaRa · 01/10/2026 21:28

@SoloCat you wouldn't be jealous about how stressed out I've been today. Poor ova has had regular updates about how my bac must be lost. It's finally just updated to say that it's now in the dpd network. BT have escalated it and then clocked off for the evening (how dare they?!) 🀣 Hopefully it's smooth sailing from now on. So fingers crossed, it should be with parcel flow tomorrow.

@Addictedtobeauty has yours been shipped from PF to you now?

JoRaRaRa · 01/10/2026 21:29

@Perfumepanda I really wanted that jewellery calendar last year but I could never justify it. I'll have to have a look at it πŸ₯°

Mine has shipped, yes.
I’ve had a photograph sent of the label and it appears to be with Parcel Force rather than DPD. Tbe photo came through in WhatsApp quite late so I doubt it’s actually left yet. I anticipate it will be with me early next week.

I'm so happy on your behalf. I was ready to cry with you. You deserve one the most after figuring out all the logistics. 😍

Addictedtobeauty · 01/10/2026 21:41

Just tracked it and it is due to be delivered on Monday morning 🀞☘️πŸ₯°

Strawberryfield12 · 01/10/2026 21:43

I have ordered HHFAC as well. Once initial shock about the price was over thought DH and myself do enjoy a nice candle in the autumn / winter time. Admittedly I have never this expensive candles.

My BAC stash so far:
F&M for opening in December
Molton Brown for DH as a birthday present
HFAC - all more masculine fragrances will go for DH birthday and Christmas presents, the rest for myself
Elle and Glossybox opened to use for presents for DM and DSis, DIY advent for DD and some for my stash and few items that didn’t fit anything above - on Vinted.

We have been diligently using Boots recycle this year, we are Β£2 away to have enough points for Boots Luxe calendar. DD and I have watched miss Boux unboxing and have already mentally split the items between us. One last recycle drop this weekend and then I am ordering the calendar.

i think that should be it. Unless something goes on a very good discount, then I might feel provoked to ransack my bank account.

So exciting!

StressedEric · 01/10/2026 21:48

I’ve had an email from Fenwick- their BAC now available again . Hmm very tempted!!

BeanNaGealai · 01/10/2026 21:53

SoloCat · 01/10/2026 21:13

But I’m jealous of the gorgeous BT you all have ordered @OvaHere @JoRaRaRa @BeanNaGealai I’m just too much of a scaredy cat to have gone through the delivery process, mine would have ended up in Timbuktu 😬 Or with the guy who had my DH trousers on!

No major delivery process for me. I'm in Ireland.

DidILeaveTheGasOn · 01/10/2026 21:54

Just ordered the Fenwick - am blaming two glasses of wine for that (but really quite happy!).

SoloCat · 01/10/2026 21:54

@JoRaRaRa that does sound stressful, so glad you now have updates and it’s on its way to you. πŸ₯°

@Strawberryfield12 your collection of advents is impressive 😁

I've ordered the M&S one, I had a Β£25 off beauty voucher to use too. It's being sent out next Friday 9th October I think.

I was hoping mine might come Monday but it won't be sent until tomorrow so probably not seeing as you are a day ahead.

This has all induced kid at xmas vibes for me. I'm really excited. πŸ˜‚

I know @SoloCat! This is definitely the most expensive advent year so far for me. Have had a BAC every year since 2016, but it was just Liberty on its own and I felt very bougee. Look at me know, eh?!
