L'occitane TSV 13/11/18

[shopperholic]

It's available now for anyone who's interested. https://www.qvcuk.com/LOccitane-6-P...duct.236961.html?productNumber=236961&sc=ISRC

£5.95 postage a bit steep though, even by QVCs standards, if you wanted all three that would be £18 delivery, no matter what you're saving compared to their store, in my opinion that's still outrageous.

I've gone for the Lavender option.

 

[Breeze]

I've ordered the Lavender & the Almond.

 

[KimP]

I may go for the Almond because it is a shower gel and not sure if the Lavender foaming bath product would be suitable in the shower. Has anyone used it as a shower product?

 

[warwa100]

was just checking the facebook page for L'occitane and it will be on pre sale from this friday 9th!!

Can someone tell me thoughts on the lavender and almond and what the fragrances are like! I think i may be tempted to my first L'occitane TSV !

My preference would be Cherry Blossom, Almond, Lavender.
I'm not really a fan of lavender though. Too strong for me. I like the almond. A sweet, fresh smell.

You can put it on a bath lily no problem.

I am so cross my daughter only went a booked 2 tickets for us to go to a l'occy shopping event in Regent Street. £6 a ticket what a thoroughly wasteful amount of money.
you get a goody bag and money off instore but it wont be as good as the TSV...she wanted the almond oil amongst other things so this would have been a good bet. KIDs!

Do let us know what's in your goody bag.

What's everyone's opinion of the price? Although I think it probably is a good price, it's definitely more expensive than I thought.
If it was under £40 plus p&p I'd have ordered it like a shot.

the price is decent i was acutally expecting over £50 cause of the supersizes of 2 items & a brand new item just wish it had a liquid soap instead of the tiny extras

This one is so difficult to do a breakdown on as the Almond products are more expensive than the lavender & cherry blossom.
I estimate that the Almond set is worth approx £100 and the other sets about £10 less.
Not for me this time.

Get working on it, Mrs, & stop slacking!!!! :mysmilie_481: (apols if you've done this in a lower post!)

Oh your a star but Blissy it’s not my Birthday sadly

Thanks all the same

:mysmilie_3:

Oh nooooooo! I've seen what I did!!! What a numpty I am!! Sorry Warwa100, enjoy your Birthday, & thanks Dream Girl for that xxxx

Thought was there all the same. :blush:

I get email invites to different store events, Crabtree & Evelyn(they have now closed their store in Belfast), L'Occitane, Molton Brown and SpaceNK. I am told to just come along it will be fun. Okay, I do go for the bubbly:mysmilie_3: My Guerlain counter in HoF is having an event on the 22nd the counter manager just told me to come and not worry about having to buy.

Just go Boffy your daughter and yourself will have fun. If the worst happens buy a lip balm or mini hand cream

You get all the good stuff in Belfast. Cotswolds is becoming soooo boring. My own fault, I should try & engage with the community more.

Am I the only one who's forgotten the price & needs to scroll back?

Did go back in the afternoon to give it a try as do not like things to beat me. Couldn’t get the prices for everything so in the end I gave up. Not like me. Sorry I was having a bad day, had MBS (Miserable b*t*h syndrome) all day.

I don’t think it’s a good offer if you compare it to the Elemis TSV, it’s exactly the same price but the Elemis one is worth so much more.

 

[SUPERCOOLWILLOW]

i think the loccitane is better than the elemis for lots of reasons but its each to their own

 

[Beakerange]

Can you use the lavender foaming bath as a body wash? I rarely get the chance for a bath.

So do I SCW

Yes, well I do anyway.

So true, wouldn’t do for us all to like the same things.

 

[SUPERCOOLWILLOW]

yeah im brutally honest when it comes to not everyone liking the same thing as for me the elemis is more or less skincare based & brands like loccitane & MB & philosophy ect are more bathing/fragranced based which is more of a draw

 

[boffy]

to be fair the l'occy one is better for gifts for most people. Elemis bath stuff is not great imo. the body cream is not moisturising and the shower cream does not lather or clean properly

Bless you, Llloyd! I was ribbing you a little, but your sums are fab. I could use some of your tenacity when my MBS strikes....

Just the gentle kick up the bum I needed.

 

[tabatha]

Don’t know if it’s just me. I got my TSV yesterday and tried the cherry blossom shower gel as I hadn’t had it for ages. Could hardly smell it. And when I put it in the bath there was no smell at all !!
