    Has anyone else noticed a problem with the cloud 10 website?
    They seem to be out of stock of a huge amount of items. Also on multiple occasions I've put something in my basket, browsed for a few more mins and by the time I go to pay it's also out of stock and the samples at checkout are always all out of stock apart from the stick thing!!
    Does this happen often with them?

    I've been noticing that for absolutely ages.

    I have tried several times to order some brushes from them and one particular lip balm, anytime I ordered they would cancel saying its not in stock or else when I put it into the basket they'd say its out of stock, despite it saying in stock on the main item page.

    I've also noticed that when I sign up for back in stock emails, they never send them (to me anyway, or else the item isn't restocked but still showing on their website as in stock).

    As a result I haven't bought from them in nearly a year now at this stage.

    I've noticed that with the emails too.

    Bought the Nip+Fab glycolic fix pads and glycolic cleanser today after getting them together in a set for 9.99 in my local TKMaxx. Just wondering what people think about the pads and do those that have used them recommend using them in the morning or at night? :)

    With any product with glycolic acid you should use them at night because the skin can be more sensitive to the sun after use. Also make sure to use SPF during the day for the same reason.

    Haven't used them myself so can't comment on them specifically but I have been quite happy with any glycolic acid product I've used so far.

    Has anyone tried the Alpha-H Liquid Gold? Have a fair few acne marks left on my skin and Ive been using the nip&fab exfoliating pads and not seen much of a difference! Have also tried the Clarins Exfoliating Toner with not much success...The Alpha-H is nearly 45 euro with the exchange rate so a bit pricey!

    I've tried it and liked it but I don't have any acne so cant help with that. Cloud 10 beauty have it and fb15fan is a 15% off code that usually works.

    I stopped buying from them ages ago. They never restock so I got fed up constantly checking their site. They also sent me the wrong items before and on another occasion when I contacted them to say the samples I selected did not arrived in my order, they tried to convince me that I didn't put any samples in my basket when I knew I did. M&S are now selling a lot of beauty on their Irish site and always have 20% off offers on (there is 20% off at the moment), they also have good offered and gift with purchase a lot of the time.

    Thanks a mill for that, the code worked! Read mixed reviews but with the 15% off its the same price as the Clarins Toner so Ill give it a try I think :)

    That's happened to me too not receiving the samples.

    Thank you! Looking forward to trying them and seeing if they'll help sort out my skin! Thanks for letting me know about the skin sensitivity, I'm going to hold off on starting using them until I come home my holiday!

    https://www.cloud10beauty.com/brands/nip-and-fab/nip-fab-extreme-glycolic-fix-night-pads.html

    The second ones are stronger with 5% glycolic, I use the second ones at night and find them good.

    Don't be sad!!
    They are 2.8% and good to start off with and once your skin is used to them you can go up to the stronger ones if you want.

    I use the stronger ones at night and in the morning I use the cleansing gel which is 2%, my skin has never looked better!

    I was in New York last week & went just a teeeeensy bit mad in Sephora & CVS :D

    From CVS, I got a Covergirl mascara, Nip & Fab Glycolic Fix Cleanser, Maybelline Master Conceal in fair, Maybelline Master Setting Spray, Nyx Microbrow pencil & Revlon Ultra HD matte lip colour in the colour Seduction.

    From Sephora, I picked up Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray, Cover FX Custom Cover Drops, Urban Decay Primer Potion, a Beauty Blender, First Aid Beauty Radiance Pads, 3 Sephora sheet masks, Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara, Kat Von D Tattoo Liner & a Sephora foundation brush.

    And I don't regret one bit of it. :D
