Does anyone fancy a thread to discuss the products as we open the drawers? Quite a few people seem to have it this year from what I've seen on here.

I think some lucky people got a bronzer instead of cuticle oil last year

There wasn't a cuticle oil last year. www.reallyree.com/liberty-advent-calendar-2016/

What was the Margaret dabbs product last year then? It was definitely something boring to do with moisturising nails Grin

I definitely didn’t get the cuticle oil last year. Agreed that it is a really boring choice. So far, think my look fantastic calendar.is beating liberty....

The cuticle oil came in the 2015 calendar Blush, sorry, my mistake.
I ought to bin it!

WipsGlitter · 04/12/2017 22:02

Following vicariously!

I'd love to get one of these!

cedoren · 04/12/2017 22:15

I've thought the calendar was boring for the first week or so every time. Blushreally loved it towards the end though, and that's when the expensive skincare products seemed to come along. Plus the candle

I love the Dr Sebagh serum, I’m looking forward to that!

GingerbreadMa · 04/12/2017 22:20

How much do these cost?

HLBug · 04/12/2017 22:22

Ugh saton I hated that Dr Sebagh serum! I used it about 3 times - is it in again this year? How annoying!! It just felt weird and was a nightmare under make up, always went all claggy and rubbed everything straight off again.

Love day 5!! Ive always wanted to try something from this brand, but its to expensive. I know its only a cleanser but i go through like crazy. £49 for 150ml!

Pomegranatepompom · 05/12/2017 09:11

The Dr Sebagh was really good when used at night time, I really noticed a difference in the morning.

Stitchosaurus · 05/12/2017 09:28

I'm happy with day 5 too! I have the brand's queen of Hungary mist/spray thing after A Model Recommends kept banging on about it (such a sheep!) which smells lovely and I got some samples of other bits when I ordered it but not this one so I'm pleased it's something new. Used it this morning, felt nice and tingly, and it's probably psychosomatic but I did think my cheeks were less red. Not sure I'll be paying £49 for a new one when this one runs out though!

GingerbreadMa · 05/12/2017 11:01

Anyone? The price isnt online just says sold out & im curious?

chloechloe · 05/12/2017 11:04

I can't remember the exact price gingerbread, but I think it was around £175.

GingerbreadMa · 05/12/2017 11:06

Oh I thought it would be more 😊 count me in for next year!

cedoren · 05/12/2017 12:03

Day 5 is brilliant

Very pleased with today - I've had the trial size of this before and really like it - I rate the brand in general.

GaryBarlowsTaxReturn · 05/12/2017 13:46

Am also pleased with today; not tried this brand yet but will give it a go later tonight!

Dozyoldtwonk · 05/12/2017 14:09

Very pleased with today, will give it a go later. I usually use a foaming cleanser by Clinique so it’s a step up for me brand wise.

Ginger I think it was £179.00 this year plus delivery of about a fiver.

HLBug · 05/12/2017 14:49

Can I ask a daft question - when would you all use a cleanser like today’s? I’m thinking at night after make up remover? I’ve never been a cleanser type person.

Stitchosaurus · 05/12/2017 21:39

As a morning cleanser or second cleanse in evening (so yeah, after you've taken off your make up)

UpEarly · 05/12/2017 21:50

Today’s was lovely, I’ve never heard of the brand so I’m being educated as well as cleansed!

caggie09 · 06/12/2017 08:45

Used this hair mask before, but a while ago. Cant remember if it was any good or not, the tube i had was tiny. This is a nice size pot and ill get more than one use out of it!

GaryBarlowsTaxReturn · 06/12/2017 10:20

Not that struck on today's item. I have a toddler and these days I find it hard to find time for stuff like hair masks. It's a shame because I loved last years Espa face cream. I'll probably pass this one on!
