Thank you Xmas Smile

Quick question on Emma Hardie: how much of the balm do you need to use?

usernameinfinito · 14/12/2017 18:49

Hi, I think I will wait to use today's cream. I can't wait for tomorrow's treat! Smile

Hareinthewoods · 14/12/2017 18:51

Does anyone want my sponge? I don't mind what you swap with, just not the body lotion from day 1 or the nail varnish.

OOAOML · 14/12/2017 18:54

If anyone is interested I'm happy to swap today's Emma Hardie stuff and the sponge?

TheLuminaries · 14/12/2017 18:55

I wonder what the morning will bring Grin

DaftCat · 14/12/2017 18:56

I loved the smell of the perfume but my stupid body chemistry makes it smell vile. This happens with all perfumes. It’s most upsetting. Anyway, does anyone want it? I’ll happily send it to you.

MoonlightMedicine · 14/12/2017 19:04

Marking my place. Really happy with the calendar again this year.

Nicketynac · 14/12/2017 19:05

Tracy I used hardly any. Enough to cover my fingertip in a not too thick layer. That's not very specific but it melted straight into oil so a little went a long way. Smells very nice and my face is nice and soft afterwards.

Hareinthewoods · 14/12/2017 19:07

Daftcat, I would happily take the perfume . Would you like my sponge?Smile

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 14/12/2017 19:15

Cheers Nickety

WindyWednesday · 14/12/2017 19:28

Wow, I don’t think we went into thread two last year.

ToffeeNosed · 14/12/2017 19:37

Perfume a bit odd, musky, like aftershave and oranges.
Has anybody tried the (day 8) black magic mascara? there is hardly anything in my tube!
On the whole though I'm very happy with the calendar.

AmethystMoon · 14/12/2017 20:04

Ooh shiny new thread....am hopeful for tomorrow, it’s been great these last few days Xmas Grin

NefretForth · 14/12/2017 20:21

Thanks for new thread! Hope tomorrow's thing is good, it's been a crummy week at work and I need cheering up.

DaftCat · 14/12/2017 20:24

@Hareinthewoods no that’s fine. I’ve got loads of them. Pm me your address and I’ll send it to you :)

SunnyUpNorth · 14/12/2017 20:36

Oh I would love another of the perfume if anyone else has one to swop?

I've been dying to try the EH cleansing balm, didn't want to risk buying the full price one as it's so expensive, so very pleased with today.

YouWereRight · 14/12/2017 21:13

I feel a bit meh about today's, it's a direct duplicate of the cleanser in last year's calendar. Why couldn't EH have given m&s another product to try.

TheLongRider · 14/12/2017 21:31

I use a hazelnut sized lump of the Emma Hardie balm and warm it up between my fingers before spreading it on my face. A small amount goes a long way.

Kez0777 · 14/12/2017 21:56

Just checking in on the new thread Grin I loved today’s last year so really happy to get it again this year.

littlepooch · 14/12/2017 22:02

Checking in too. I am very excited to try today's offering! Always wanted to try it so I am happy!

HeyRoly · 14/12/2017 22:06

The moringa balm is the star product of the Emma Hardie range, so I'm not surprised it's been repeated. I've never tried it, although I first heard of it years ago, so I'm looking forward to giving it a go. It looks kind of similar to the Neal's Yard wild rose beauty balm, which I love, so fingers crossed Grin

Very happy with the cleansing balm today.

This is my third year of m&s advent calendar, and I'm having fun recycling the boxes.

Plans are forming -daughter will be over, we will visit mum and sister will join us on Christmas Eve, so I intend to have a calendar for them to plunder, with a mix of the contents I didn't want, some miniature alcohol bottles, and some fun items like mint boxes, mini soaps, a tea bag.....

MsJaneAusten · 14/12/2017 22:11

Blatant place marking Xmas Smile

Xmasbaby11 · 14/12/2017 23:00

Love today's offering. It smells lovely and feels nice on my my face. Loving almost everything really, certainly the skincare. It's amazing value!
