Being an avid beauty blog reader, I quickly discovered that advent calendars can be even more awesome than they used to be. When I came across this Ciate advent calendar, I KNEW I had to have it! Even so, I couldn't bring myself to spend £38 on it. Lucky for me I have the best girlfriend in the world, and she decided to buy it for me :D. This retailed at £38 at Selfridges, but I then read on someone's blog that QVC were also stocking it and at the much more wallet-friendly price of £31.50! So she bought it for me and here it is! Unfortunately it is no longer available, unless you have a look on eBay.
I had a bit of trouble with the delivery from QVC (they use Hermes - the same company used by ASOS). I was able to track the delivery and after a few days it says that the item had been signed for and was delivered. No one in my flat had signed for it so I asked my neighbours and they hadn't signed for it either. QVC were great about it, they didn't have any left at the time but luckily the team leader who was dealing with the issue found one and sent it to me straight away with a different delivery company! And here it is! The original one still hasn't been found, QVC are opening a case with the delivery company and hopefully they'll be able to sort something out.
It's not the first time I've had trouble with Hermes, they've left items on my doorstep a few times, in broad daylight, so I am going to avoid buying things from websites that use them.
I can't wait to start it on Saturday :D.
Have you got an exciting advent calendar this year?
