Oooh, excited. Had confirmation of dispatch of several Memeboxes from Korea! Should also get the My Little Box next week and daughters Nerd Block Jnr. Postman not going to be happy!

My latest Memebox arrived a few days ago - Earth & Sea one. Has some great skincare in it, but one cleanser has spider extract in it. The mind boggles :eek:! Full contents are up on my blog.

Also got my BB today - I'm really happy with it - at last some decent sized samples!

Talking about strange ingredients, I received my memebox mask box and I got masks with horse oil (and there is a horse on the packaging!)! AND a collagen mask with a picture of a pig on the box! I will write a review for this box on my blog soon, I want to try these masks first!

I received also my pink parcel, it's a nice box. I just have to remember to avoid ordering boxes in October because they contain pink stuff! And I am not a pink person!

Haha! This spider cleanser has pig collagen in too. Deffo not vege, kosher or halal!!!!

My Pink Parcel got dispatched today too which I wasn't expecting. It's normally much later in the month, although I guess based on a 4 week cycle it will get a little earlier each month.

Just bought the You Beauty Advent Calendar!! Trying my hardest not to look at the product list, I fully intend on opening each day of December
Anyone else getting an advent this year? I think I will get the Benefit one too.

Yes, I bought the Ciate Mini Manor as it looked cute and considering the Body Shop one.

Really hoping Tesco release the Frozen one soon so my wee girl can open "her" beauty one too..

I've bought that one for the last two years, and I don't fancy it this year. Lots of products that I have already from beauty boxes etc that I just don't use.

I was tempted by the Body Shop one, but then I checked the contents and I changed my mind.

The Ciate one looks pretty good, I haven't had a nail polish one before, so that's a contender!

The one that I really fancy, is the Selfridges one, it looks really good, but I just don't know if I can justify paying out that much money, even though when you think of what you get it's good value.

Was this calendar half price in January last year or at some point at the end of the year? I have a lot of the products in that calendar from other boxes. I think I may buy an extra beauty box for Christmas and get a traditional chocolate advent calendar!

It went down to half price before December I think?! Or maybe just a few days in?

A lot of people (myself included) weren't happy as we'd just spent £50 and it was now being advertised for less. It maybe wasn't half price, but it was heavily discounted. I guess they can't have been selling as fast as they had thought they would?
