A bit overestimated on the price. I did buy this, but the values are all for full size items. Value of mini is not the same as a large bottle of perfume. Kinda misleading

The two Armani vials are free counter sample sized. Very disappointing as a whole.

Oooh. Mine is coming TODAY! I had a credit for a box that never came and the subscriber’s discount so I got this one for nearly half off! My first Advent box!

The Oribe nail polish sucked me in. Love the color and the bottle is so pretty!!! Looking forward to the other items as well!

The nail polish color in the pamphlet is different. Sadly, I don’t think the color is a definite.

Buying this won’t start a subscription, will it? Does anyone know?

Jackie
No it will not start a subscription, it is a one-time box.

Ordered mine. I have cut back on beauty subscription boxes until I enjoyed that which I already owned. This Advent Calendar order came just in time to fill the product need list.

Yeah, I think if I buy this at all, it will be when it’s 50% off…
Not a bad advent calendar, but I have way too much of everything as it is.

Sweet! I’ve never bought before. With the subscriber discount and a credit, my total came to under $70. Excited!

Oh I’m sad it doesn’t have the Tarte Park Ave Princess like the UK version, that was the one thing I was hoping would be the same. Still looks like one of the most worthwhile advent calendars though!! Just curious, I couldn’t find any way to order the UK one, is there a loophole anyone knows of? Lol! The Look Fantastic one is coming from the UK so I’m curious if it’s possible for Glossybox. Oh well. Speaking of LF though, have you (MSA) heard any updates on shipping for these? I was told they “MIGHT not ship until November or December, but we’re checking on that”…this would be disappointing since I wanted to review it on my channel before they sell out.

Same! I’m sad these aren’t the same products as the UK version. I wish I could order the UK version to ship to the US, but I haven’t found a loophole either. Has anyone else managed to find a way to do this?

My post was edited. The physical box was more exciting than the products inside. Such a waste of money. Very few were full size, most unusable products. Will not purchase another pig in the poke. Awful colors and seemed like manufacturers’ cast offs.

I pre-ordered my LF Advent the day it opened, I got a shipping notice like a week ago, when I check the tracking though the shipper still hasn’t received it. Hopefully they get them out soon! As long as I get it before December 1st life is good though LOL

How odd. A few hours ago a full review was up. I bought it because of the review.

The review’s still up, but it was posted before the calendar was actually available to everyone. I think this is just a post letting people know it’s officially now available. 🙂

This is a kick ass box! Now, if it would just go on sale a bit lower then I’d bite. Too much product right now and well, I’m cheap too……lol
I think this might sell out, it’s 1000 times better then last year.

This was an awesome box. I’m so glad I signed up and was able to buy two of them. Who could ever complain about it being $99 non-subscription or $89 subscription? This box was pure joy.
Did anyone ever look at the trash that Macy’s put our for $129?

Wow! Nice to see an Advent calendar that is actually worth it! Wish I wasn’t on product overload. If I don’t buy any product for the next 2 years …..

I actually bought it. Got it. Have to disagree that it’s of value. It’s not.

Beautiful box and 1st advent box that’s worth it’s pricetag. Advent calendars prices are ridiculously high this year and the value isnt there. I hope this “mystery” trend ends soon.
