UK Release Dates Discussion - All Brands Welcome! - Page 196

I missed the postman today, I'm pretty sure it was my HoF order that came, now I have to wait until Monday to pick it up. Never mind though, I wouldn't be able to do anything with it anyway, with husband and children at home and constantly annoying, lol. Haven't even had time to look at my goodies I picked up on Thursday from the counter. Bring on Tuesday! (Monday's inset day.)
 

I got my stuff today yay.. but I will do a little photography session before I will try everything))

This sounds SO like my life too!!  Mine are back to school on Monday, so can investigate the Bobbi Brown that I've splashed the cash on - it's upstairs still in the box at the moment .

Yeah, I just plonked my Mac bag in the cupboard and never had a chance to look at things properly. Oh well, at least both my younger ones have after school clubs on Tuesday and my eldest doesn't get home until 4 pm anyway, so I'll have plenty of time to play. :)

 

Is HoF going to release any of the mac holiday collections?

Does anyone know how long it takes for HoF Recognition points to be converted to rewards? Do you have to wait a month? Thanks xx

 

It's every three months.  I believe they are due this month.

 

 

 

No sign of my Pink Paramour set from MAC yet.  According to the website it is still In Warehouse along with a couple of orders from 2007 lol.  Postie has been, but he didn't have it

Thanks. I wonder why they do it so infrequently!

Halfpriceperfumes.co.uk have the Urban Decay Deluxe Eyeshadow Box as their 'Deal Of The Day'.  It's currently £17.99 instead of £27.00

 

I just found out that the next Boots points event is on 14th or 15th November.  Ours is on the 15th, but it varies - check the website for yours, by doing a branch search.

The HoF rewards are the same as the Debenhams rewards, ie credit card based, whereas the Debenhams Beauty Card is like the Boots Advantage Card. That is why they only send the rewards out every 3 months with your statement. Also, you need to have a minimum of £20 to get your rewards, otherwise you're waiting another 3 months.

 

 

Well, it turns out it was actually my Debenhams order that was delivered on Saturday, I've just picked it up from the sorting office. My HoF order came today. Both are still sitting there unopened (dh is home today as it's inset day for all 3 of mine), can't wait for tomorrow, to finally be able to sit down and open everything and take pictures and swatch them... :)

oh no sorry I meant the Recognition loyalty card, its like a Boots advantage card. Not the credit card :)

I don't know, I have the credit card. Does it not say on the HoF website?

It's probably the 15th for me too, it's always a Thursday. I already have a plan, I'll get the Chanel quad and Illusion d'Ombre with my points on Friday, then get the Dior palette on the 15th as I have another 500 bonus points voucher, so will get £17 worth of points with the first £50 spend!

On that note, I bought the Babyliss hot air brush thingy last time and it's really good. It was £49.99, but got £12 points, so it was alright.

when did you order it??? If it was last monday contact them

I just realised it was tuesday when collection was released lolz

Benefit 40% off sale http://www.benefitcosmetics.co.uk/product/collection/sale

 

I ordered it from them on Thursday, when I realised that it wasn't going to be on HoF or Debenhams and was MAC exclusive

I'd definitely give them a call. I only ordered from HoF and Debenhams on Thursday and got them both already!

 

I am so tempted by this product, it's such a great value: http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10001_10001_123053015299_-1?breadcrumb=Home~Beauty The problem is, you need to buy 2 other Lancome products to be able to buy it, and I can't find anything I like. I guess I could buy a Genifique eye cream as I'm nearly out and maybe the Visionnaire serum, but it's just so much money. I quite like the new Christmas eyeshadows but they're not up on the Debenhams website. *sigh* Please tell me I don't need it!
 

I wanted the Lancome special offer set last year, but like you I couldn't find 2 other things I wanted to enable me to buy it. 

There's also a free Lancome set if you buy 2 or more products, so all the more reason, but that said, I have so many cream samples now, I don't need to buy face creams for 5 years at this rate. Maybe if Debenhams were to put up the Lancome holiday eyeshadows...

 

 

I have a whole load of cream samples too, mostly from Boots GWPs lol.

 

My Paramour Pink set just arrived with the postie :)

The ArtDeco Mystic Garden collection has gone up on Debenhams website.  No Dita Fall Collection yet, though

They are taking forever with Dita Fall collection... by the time they will release it it will be winter...

 

I'm hoping to receive my MAC box tomorrow.. with a back up of innocence and Worldly Wealth blush from Style seeker..))

That's not the holiday collection though is it? Just how many collections are there?

 

 

Nope, still the holiday collection to come as well. 

 

I asked ArtDeco last week when the Dita Fall collection would be here in the UK, and they said it would be this week sometime. 

I may have just bought China Glaze Cranberry Splash nail polish from their Christmas collection after seeing Vampy Varnish's swatches.  I was a good girl, though - only one, and it wasn't a glittery one.  http://www.vampyvarnish.com/2012/11/china-glaze-holiday-joy-holiday-2012-swatches-review-giveaway (giveaway not open to the UK)

You don't need it.  Nor do I.  But it IS very tempting!  I'm thinking I might get two kohl pencils to qualify - can always use more kohl :)

What's most tempting is that it only costs £45 at Debenhams, whereas it's £75 elsewhere! I want to get it before they realise they made a mistake, lol. I don't use khol. I don't need any more mascaras. Or lipstick, lipglosses, etc. Argh!  Take my credit card away from me, lol!

And there's the Estee Lauder special collection too....I got the one last year, and the lipsticks are really gorgeous ...
