Hi there, would you know if there will be any estee lauder GWP before March? many thanks
There will be one in early February at Dillard’s, then about a week later that same GWP should be at Boscov’s. Then another in early March at Macy’s. Those are the only ones I know about as of now!
Do you know whether any of the stores get new stocks of the holidays sets around Feb? I was able to get the Lancome set from Macy’s last year in Feb without the PWP requirement. It seems most stores are now out of stock. I’m wondering if I should buy now before they run out.
I don’t know if they restock. If it were me, I would buy it now before they run out for good! Boscov’s and Nordstrom are selling the Lancome set for $68 (no longer a PWP) and last I checked, Nordstrom also had a Lancome GWP.
Thank you! Macy’s is back in stock now in both GLAM and GLOW — I just snagged both.
Thank you for letting me know about Macy’s, I’ve added it to the list for anyone who is still shopping for that set!
Is the Lancome gwp you mentioned above at Nordstrom already gone? Their website shows another gwp if you spend $45. Thank you!
Oh no! I haven’t checked since Friday morning but if the Nordstrom site is showing a different GWP, then that is the gift that is currently available.
Is Elizabeth Arden’s Blockbuster still available at Macy’s? Looks like there’s no way to add it to my cart…
It was there this morning but it looks like it has sold out! Thank you for letting me know, I will update the page. It is still available at Boscov’s and direct from Elizabeth Arden!
Do you have any idea if Estee Lauder will do the 20$ off a moisturizer promotion again this winter?
I don’t know yet, but I will try to find out and let you know!
It looks like yes, they will be running that promotion, and it should start on January 17!
THANK YOU!! I did my stocking up last year right before that promo started. I was so upset at all the $$$ I could have saved! Hehe
So glad I could help!
Thank you for your great blog. Made my annual holiday set purchase, wrapped up with the PWP and GWP from Macy’s for Estee’ Lauder today. Went back and forth a bunch of times w/ what set to get, etc. Looking forward to a very big box of goodies to arrive in a week or so. My holiday gift to my self.
The white make-up bag EL GWP is now out of stock at Macy’s. It showed up in my bag, along w/ the fragrance GWP, but wouldn’t go through for the purchase.
Is anyone else disappointed that the 2019 Estee Lauder Blockbuster does not have a full size blush? I really liked the 2017 set because of this reason. The lipstick shades were also better in that set.
From what I can tell in the picture, the lipsticks AREN’T very good. One nice red and two colors I wouldn’t like. The lipsticks are always the draw for me, plus any fragrance other than a sample, and the eye makeup remover. It does seem that in years past, they had better lipstick shades.
AGREE! I just ordered the Elizabeth Arden one for the second year in a row. Last year I realized I loved it more than the Estee one. Better value this year for sure!
Thank you for posting the link to the Estée Lauder 2019 blockbuster. It’s sometimes hard to decide whether to buy a currently available GWP or wait until the blockbuster is in store.
The 2019 blockbuster looks like it contains a full size advanced night repair serum (I think 30ml), full size eye cream, and possibly deluxe sample size revitalizing supreme creme plus makeup and some things I can’t ID.
BTW love your blog (I’ve probably said that in a previous post).
Thank you! I’m so happy to hear you are still enjoying the blog! And I’m glad you found the preview helpful. I know a lot of people look forward to that blockbuster every year and this year’s set is very pretty.
Any info on the Lancôme Holiday Blockbuster?
Unfortunately not yet! Last year it debuted on October 19 but even though I’ve been looking, I haven’t found anything out yet.
Oct 18th it comes out, its a round black case, warm or cool selection 12 products it’s on Instagram GWP
Are there any leaks or spoilers for the Estee Lauder Holiday Blockbuster yet?? 🙏
No spoilers yet! But I checked and last year it didn’t launch until November 1. I am actively looking for information and will share as soon as I find anything!
Thanks!!
I see I’m not the only one thinking ahead! ☺️
