So it arrived damaged. Never mind, I thought, it's what's inside that counts...

Xmas Grin Of course! They're false lashes! Silly me for mocking them, so ungrateful.

I haven't checked if the rest of the spider is in the dust, must do that. Or perhaps I'll get the other legs spread over the next 3 days and the body on Christmas Eve.

I might have considered sharing my funnel with you all, what with the amount of envy evident from the replies, but not my spider legs. I'm sorry but they are all mine!

The rest of the spider is probably at the bottom of the pot.

HuskyMcClusky · 10/12/2017 12:27

This is gold. Grin

Whiterabbitears · 10/12/2017 12:24

Shittery! GrinGrinGrin

sugarlost · 10/12/2017 11:56

Pissing myself!!!!

On a serious note....are there instructions for the spiders legs?

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 10/12/2017 11:47

They will probably be able to see you from Space in all you glittery glory after you open all the windows OP.

thegrinchreaper · 10/12/2017 10:59

Omfg! 😂 maybe they couldn't be bothered with providing some false lashes....'don't want to break the budget, sling these spider legs in one of the pots of dust instead'

Moogletea · 10/12/2017 10:59

No way 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳 seriously??? You are being SO SPOILED

In there, we will find two spider's legs.

Xmas Grin Menace I am a convert, no more decent ACs for me - opening utter shite everyday is the way forward.

I did indeed bring the calendar, how could I not?! Fortunately there were no airports involved as I'm sure it would have been confiscated by some green eyed security staff.

Day 10 has provided TWO gifts Xmas Shock

The first is another of the tiny pots we're now so used to seeing and as we've all learned, they usually bring us something glittery and extra shitty - shittery if you will. Today is no exception, we have a pink eye powder that provides the ultimate shitteriness.

But what about the second gift, I hear you all ask.

For that we need to look inside the pot of shittery eye powder...

loving this thread Grin sorry not sorry.

Opheliasgoldenwine · 09/12/2017 19:12

Furry that sounds good Smile

Travelling with your advent - now that is what I call dedication @Cheeseandcucumber

TheFurryMenace · 09/12/2017 14:02

🤣 at dandruff eyebrows RJ!

What say we all club together and get Cheese a decent calendar next year? She’s so earned it with this entertaining and whitty thread, and commitment to the cause.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 09/12/2017 13:21

You took your HOF advent calendar on your weekend mini break? Grin

I'm hoping you didn't fly. A drugs funnel won't go down well with airport security.

RJnomore1 · 09/12/2017 12:25

Are dandruff eyebrows a thing now? Shock

KatyS36 · 09/12/2017 12:23

Marvellous thread. Every Christmas I look for something to follow online. This year it's this thread Smile. Please keep it going.

Xmas Grin why thank you, Menace, I've always wanted a title and will definitely take two. Although, a small request to change it to Saint Cheese of the Shitty Beauty Calendar please.

Today has provided the much needed sticky shitty non-wearable lip gloss I've been wanting.

It's another that smells of bubblegum. IMO it's impossible to wear makeup that doesn't smell of sweets.

Interesting fact: dogs love the smell of cheap makeup.

I'm currently on a weekend break and the calendar was the first thing I packed last night Xmas Grin Thank goodness I brought it, couldn't have gone a whole weekend without my bubblegum lipgloss. I'd have looked a right tit.

Well I can only hang my head and weep! All that beautiful stuff could have been mine if only I had not looked at the calender in HOF thought Nah, right load of tat, and put it back. Ho hum!

FinallyGotAnIPhone · 08/12/2017 22:17

Just found this thread it’s made me laugh out loud. Thanks!

TheFurryMenace · 08/12/2017 22:05

While I'm at it, I'll think I'll write to Her Maj and get you nominated for an MBE for services to the beauty industry . I can see it now, Dame Cheese...

TheFurryMenace · 08/12/2017 22:02

I vote we nominate you as Saint Cheese, of the Beauty Calendar . I'm going to draft an email to the Pope ...

Xmas Grin I'm so happy many of you are using this thread as a substitute advent calendar, no one else should have to pay to endure this shit!

We'll need a volunteer take on the 2018 sharing the shit challenge Xmas Grin

I might attempt to use every product the week before Christmas and share a picture, see how fancy I look Xmas Grin (after the Christmas parties so no one sees the inevitable bad reactions I'll have to the offensive makeup).
