Beauty chat - freebies/gifts with purchase/offers THREAD TWENTY THREE

[OvaHere]

Welcome back all.

We rattled through the last thread and with Black Friday round the corner this one will go fast too. I hope we haven't all spent up on advents... 😂

Thank you as always to our regulars for you contributions and if you've been reading and thinking of joining come and say hello. 😊

That chantecaille lipstick is just gorgeous @JoRaRaRa . I really really cannot justify it 😩. But sales of it support one of my favourite charities - The Sheldrick Trust 🐘 🦛…. But as @Thelifeofawife says the colour is similar to the LE sequin gloss from last year which I have.
Thankfully although the LE Christmas collection is beautiful none of the colours really call to me this time.
Happy Birthday @diamondsandrose

Talking of last years LE gloss - a PSA.

Everyone who has one dig them out and start wearing now if you haven't been doing over summer. I checked on mine last week and it still looks and smells fine but gloss doesn't last that long before it goes off and I doubt they will do another autumn/winter.

Ooh me too!

The Evri courier has delivered three vinted parcels.

Unfortunately not to my actual house. The tracking is a totally different door, none of my neighbours have that door.

So that’s 3 cases to open, no products and everyone is worse off.

FFS.

There was Trinny elevator which I wanted, and Zelens B12 for my mum. I’m quite pissed off.

I didn't get the FTF winter radiance offer - it's still £149 for me. Sulking now....

Oh no. That's terrible. I hope you can trace them or get a replacement.

Thanks for the new thread @OvaHere

I hope your parcels situation can be resolved @TragicMuse - that’s just awful.

Thanks for the thread @OvaHere

What a nightmare @TragicMuse 😢

But that is too pretty to wear to work and I dont go out much! I just want to look at it....my preciousssss

The Boots X Icons for this week is Laneige.

Thanks @MrsBnow12 - it’s a pretty bag. I think I would be tempted more if it had one more product in it.

I keep dithering on these Beauty Icons sets and missing out- I wish I had bought the SbA set and the Ouai.

I don’t want to buy this one just as compensation.

I think Boots are knocking it out of the park atm, btw. I just wish we knew in advance what each Beauty Icons set was for the whole period! One of the reasons I haven’t jumped on any is I keep wondering if there will be a ‘better’ edit in future!

I wish that Liberty wouldn't use Amazon for delivery. Ordered the scent edit and it needs a code on delivery, but I'm at work in the day! 😕

Not even 8:30am and have already hit buy on the LE lipstick and the Chantecaille lipstick and now I’m eyeing up the Boots Laneige set…

I found mine again this morning and will be proudly sparkly at work today.

@MotherofTerriers that’s so annoying. I’m sorry it didn’t work for you. I’m still annoyed I missed the reduction on the CB edit with the Medik8 serum. It’s still good value at full price because I do actually use this serum every day. But I don’t want to pay full price now.

Menopause Edit from lib. £80 with MENO10 code does not replace 15% vip

Same forgot to check out the Ouai dithered on the SbA, want the bag in the Laneige but not the contents. Got the 2 glossier balms coming, I'm drowning in better serums and have 2 of those mists.

I'm really tempted by that Chantecaile lipstick. It would go nicely with this blouse, that I'm also tempted by... https://www.nobodyschild.com/products/isla-blouse-cord-2617087001

Today could be an expensive day...

I'm also disappointed I missed the Boots OuAi edit and the kerastase edit, both brands I have been wanting to try for a while. Also disappointed I missed the CB code on the edits but am I right in thinking edits are excluded from general codes for 4 weeks after release so might still be able to get the discounted price if they still have stock in a couple of weeks?

Cult beauty have sold out of chantecaille lipstick. Probably just as well!
re Evri, my Chanel highlighter from JL was just dumped on a neighbouring property at night in the rain. I complained to JL and got a £15 gift card which was good but I dread any further deliveries from Evri now. For the past year they have been utterly terrible. Why companies especially reputable ones like JL are persisting with them is beyond me.

Darn the Chantecaille is now out of stock!

Space Nk have a new gwp coming - I like the look of this even though the spend is quite high

Small sizes for that spend though... Could do with a mini LM powder though and I do fancy the AB tinted lip balm

Could be tempted is calendar is included but bet it isn't.

@mrspk CB codes are capricious- you are right that codes sometimes work on edits later, but they are occasionally valid at random other times as well such as when products first launch. 🤷‍♀️
