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 does look dried out. I’ve shoved my finger on mine to check consistency but as you may be able to see it’s quite buttery.

My John Lewis ultimate gift box has arrived and I’m really pleased with it! I only got it because I had a gift voucher burning a hole in my pocket but I’d definitely recommend. I’ve tried the Terry lip oil and it’s lovely, not too sticky.

Only one tiny size item (Sisley) but the rest all proper sizes and feels quite a treat. Looking forward to AB face oil. I might try to find the scents in store before I open the sealed boxes.

I would write an email to MZ skin as well. Seems to be a lot of issues like this with their products.

I so wish they still did In The Library. My DS bought it and I loved it but he was living at home at the time and I thought it was weird to buy the same one so I didn't. And now, of course, it's discontinued. He even had a friend working in Harvey Nicks at that point and access to her lovely staff discount. I'm an idiot.

Is anyone else struggling to sign into Boots?

It looks great. I'm wavering but trying to be good as I bought stuff in the Sephora sale today. I only really want a few items from it but your photo looks so appealing. 😆

This appears on my socials on a frequent basis, probably because I keep clicking on it. Did anyone else buy it and can either enable me or talk me round?

Just checked my first TKMaxx MZ Skin order, which has only just arrived and the cream seems fine, same consistency as I've used before. However, I bought a rich cream from Vinted the other week and that really wasn't ok, it was just like a pp had with the lid loose inside the box and a dried up solid lump in the jar.

Re the TK Maxx, it's a gamble. I decided not to collect one of my orders (Bio placenta serum and Bio Placenta cream ) based on today's failure (Expert Edit set with the 3 serum and cream), and have to wait for the last one, 50ml Rich Cream to arrive, if it's dry again it will go back. A lot of time wasted, don't think I'll buy from TKM again. I'll wait for MZ to appear in Advents instead. At least I have one MZ eye product to look forward to in this years Harrods Bac...

My Wonderskin lip stain has arrived. I’m rather pleased with it! Looks like a wonderful colour - now to see how it lasts…

Looks lovely, I would go for it, but checked and it was released in March. Might be worth holding off till Black Friday...

Surprise, surprise I have it. I purchased it ages ago, maybe Easter time, and I think it had been around for a while then. I’m wondering if this will be reduced soon in a BF sale. It’s lovely but if I’m totally honest it sits in a drawer unopened as I just haven’t got round to it. I think (my memory Is terrible) that I didn’t think it was anywhere near as good value as the summer tote bag. Maybe I should pull it out my drawer and use it 😬. I really need to stop buying and start using up my stash.

It works very well as lip liner, and stays whole day, not kidding! 💪 I haven’t tried it as overall lip colour (I use Milk jelly tint instead). No more ghostly pale lips 👻😆

Has anyone got a photo of their SpaceNK GWP please?

Mine hasn't even posted yet.

Youtube might have a vid with it

Seems so !
it’s like they aren’t putting the lids on tightly enough or something ?

has anyone tried pelegrims bath salts?

I’ve got them but like everything else I’m still waiting to get round to trying them.

Is there anything specific you want to see?

This is mine

I've bought some Floral Street fragrances via this. Got 4 £60 sets for £126 as also had an Advantage Card offer of £14 off a £70 spend

I have and they’re lovely. The scent really infuses the bathroom and I found them a joy to use.

I joined their subscription box after a recommendation on here. might have been from @Cyclingmummy1 ?

My favourite thing so far has been a candle- absolutely amazing throw, scented the whole house. I have some skincare that I haven’t tried and a face mask. Looking forward to the next box, due very soon,

The Rare Beauty luminizer - is it a sachet or a cute teeny tiny pot? I saw the 2.5ml one in Sephora and it’s so cute and tiny but the one in the GWP is even smaller!

Thank you! I remember my children collecting miniature pretend foods a few years ago from blind bags somewhere - I feel like these might remind me of those! 😂

Yes, I love them.

Looking forward to the next box @Addictedtobeauty I think my payment is tomorrow.
