    Disappointed with my You Beauty Discovery box for the first time. Was for the dark lipstick colour featured (although knew was going to be variable, was hoping). Instead got a pink shade (minx) that will be passing on. It doesn't suit my skintone at all. Is much paler than my lips, so looks like I have gapingly covered them in with irridescent chalky crayon. Not a good look. Might have been tempted by the brand otherwise. They should so have sent out a generic suit-all shade.

    Got my Telegraph beauty box yesterday, and it was all wonderful. I loved the lipstick that was included. Looked a vibrant coral/red suit-all shade on me.
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    Use the code YBD10 for £10 off the youbeauty discovery advent calendar.

    Do you think this calendar will go down to 50% off? It seems to in previous years, but it also seems to be £10 cheaper than previous years!

    They were offered to people who'd already purchased it at the end of Nov and then generally mid Dec last year. I ordered mine on 13th and kept it for this year.

    They were originally £49.95, reduced to £24.95, so no more pricey than this year's YBD advent. I'll buy one if they drop to 50% off again this year, £10 off isn't enough to entice me

    I think that if the sales are good, the price won't get lower. But who knows how sales go?
