Darn it, there's nothing I want right now. Why can't this be a week or so later with Chanel and Guerlain launching their new collections???

I ended up ordering a couple of Guerlain Shine Automatique lipsticks in the end. :)

Thanks for posting the codes :) I was actually suspecting that Debenhams would give us 20% off beauty during this event so I held off buying, 15% is better than 10 so I'm happy :) I ordered both nail polishes from the Dior summer collection, Chanel Jalousie glossimer and a Clinique sunscreen which I was supposed to re-buy ages ago

My order has been despatched and hopefully it will arrive on Tuesday though Monday would be even better! I also ordered the Shiseido Foundation brush with £5 off :)

Boots currently have a 1000 bonus points when you purchase 2 or more products from Clarins, does anyone know if I can use my double points voucher on this offer?

I'm sure you can, but it will only double the points you'd get without the bonus points voucher, ie not the 1000 points.

I've just ordered from Debenhams, too. Since HoF were unable to complete one of my orders, and refunded me for the two items, I ordered them from Debenhams, along with a couple of brushes. I remembered to go through TopCashBack, but I am unsure whether this will pay out since a code was used. We shall see (fingers crossed).

Also since HoF had messed up with my order somewhere along the line (I was told it had been packed, but somehow not put onto the system and sent) they emailed me a £20 eVoucher by way of apology. I have just spent this as I discovered Shimmermint eyeshadow was still available at HoF online!!

I think I've worked out what might have happened. The two items missing from my order are Rebel lipstick and Russian Red lipglass. These were the only two items that, although the order and confirmation emails I received showed the colour names, anything I saw online after that did not. On further investigation it seems that, as these items are now part of the Fashion Sets collection, they were given new, different item numbers, so things didn't tie up.

I believe you're right, unless it states on the double points voucher that it can not be used in association with any other offer. I didn't get the leaflet with vouchers this time around, so can't check :(

It says it can't be used in conjunction with any Nation wide store bonus points events, not sure if the Clarins bonus points are included :/

No, I'm not at all excited about next month's Mac collections. I don't like the prolongwear lipsticks, the powder's useless imo, and those lip and cheek products I just don't need. It's just as well since I want pretty much everything from Heavenly Creatures and I'll be getting lots from the Guerlain collection plus a few bits from Chanel anf Clarins.

I went to London yesterday (to the Allergy and Gluten Free show) and ended up popping into Kensington High Street and went into the Boots there. Checked out the Dior collection again and decided I don't want the quints, but bought the pink cream eyeshadow (I had some bonus point vouchers) and at home I ordered the Glow Enhancing Bronzer in no 2, and also got Au Rose suntint in the end. I figured with 15% off it can't be that bad.

Dawn, you do get cashback even with the codes, I've had my e-mail about the first order already.

I also went to Superdrug and bought 3 L'Oreal lipsticks: Magnetic Coral, Electric Fuchsia and Metallic Coral. I also picked up two more Infallible eyeshadows (blue and white) and a Barry M nail polish. Phew! :)

I've had my Debenhams and HoF cashback 'tracked', too :) The HoF one seems to have tracked the full amount of the sale, including the £20 voucher - it looks like they treated it as a payment rather than a discount.

I hope you like your L'Oreal lipsticks. I like the Electric Fuchsia one, but LOVE the Metallic Coral one

Nope - I'm not excited about anything until By Request in August. I really can't wait to find out what colours made it in. I'll end up really breaking the bank for that collection but we're not going to get it in August are we? It'll be more September time, right?

My second order's cashback has tracked too.

I like Electric Fuchsia, but I'm not blown over by it. I was thinking about not getting it, but since it was a 3 for 2, I thought I would anyway. The only thing is I'm not too keen on the scent/smell of L'Oreal lipsticks. I used to use them all the time before I got into Mac and high end brands, and didn't mind them too much, but since then I much prefer the vanilla scent or the flowery scent of Guerlain, etc.
I think I'm only interested in getting one of the double-ended pencils, possibly Dear Diary, and one or two of the Casual Colours lip and cheek things. If so, it will be one of the cheapest months for me for MAC since I first got into it

Thankfully I'm not interested in the MAC June collections either - the July ones are another thing though!

I think for the months I'm not interested in the collections I'll keep building up my collection of perm items.

I did however manage to get my hands on a full sized, potted Strada blush! A lady on the US Sale/Swap has sold it to me - SO excited! :D Means I can use my Gareth Pugh without worrying about running out.

yeah i shall be going crazy with heavenly creatures!! :) also what are these l'oreal lipsticks? are they special or anything? people keep talking about some but not sure what range they are!

see the double ended pencils sound cool but when i saw swatches they didn't look that exciting to me :(

yeah i think it will be september / october for us :( which is annoying! i shall be buying most of the eyeshadows but luckily have all the glosses :)

lol! looks like we all need to keep saving up for july then! hee hee!
It's very annoying! It'll be good for my wallet to wait till then (I have a ton of bills to pay) but I also will be starting my new Access course at college (So I can apply to Uni) and I'll really need to be focusing on studying rather than stalking MAC for a collection. Blah! :(

Heavenly Creatures, Pro Palettes, Nail Lacquers and Illustrated. :)

The nail lacquers are permanent, aren't they? Means they can wait if need be. By Pro Palettes, do you mean the empty ones? If so, they are permanent too, so just Heavenly Creatures and Illustrated to concern myself with. Actually, I'm sure I read that HC is July for us, and the Pro Palettes, Nail Lacquers and Illustrated are August (although of course that is always subject to change)

I'm only interested in 2 or 3 lipsticks from HC at the moment, pending swatches of the mineralize stuff. The swirls don't entice me - I want to see the overall effect when worn.
