Day by Day M&S Beauty Calendar- No Spoilers!

[happypoobum]

Are we all ready? Stand by your beds for tomorrow! I just keep looking at mine in wonderment. It really cheered me up every day last December having something to open every morning

I couldn't see another day by day thread - happy to delete mine if someone else has one.

Don't forget to take the seal off before you go in the shower. Not so easy with your teeth and wet hands.

Really pleased with the Nuxe shower oil. Not tried the face mask from yesterday but will do so this evening. Wasn't too fussed about the Rosie cream until I actually tried it, it certainly gave my lilac Scottish legs and arms some colour and think this is something I could buy again.

Nuxe is not my favourite smell, but my mum loves it. Is it very sparkly? Will it smear over my bed?

I'm really happy with todays I've wanted to try this for ages

sluj thanks for that timely reminder! Read your post just before I got in the shower with the oil. I liked it. Not oily oily, felt luxurious, and I enjoyed using it even though I can't detect any shimmer..

Oh my, I'm in love with the smell. I'll definitely be buying this it's gorgeous. Tried day one again and really hate the smell, too sickly sweet for me so I shall offload it.

I assumed this was a body lotion this morning, glad I looked on here before slathering myself...

I used the face mask and shower oil today. I liked the mask, but my face feels no different. I'm a bit meh about the shower oil. As a soap user I don't care for the sliminess of shower gels/oil, so once this is used up I won't be buying any.

Late to the party but thought I would check in!

My thoughts so far...
Day 1 - I quite like it. Not normally a fan of shimmery/sparkly things but this is very subtle. Perhaps too subtle as I can't really see any difference on my skin! But I like the fragrance so it'll get used.
Day 2 - Lovely! Great fragrance. I used it this morning and it's left my skin looking a bit fresher and slightly more refined
Day 3 - I've had this before and I am a bit meh. I have used it after ordinary soap/shower gel in the shower, kind of like a conditioner for skin I suppose, as it doesn't feel lathery enough to get me properly clean! It does feel nice on the skin but again, not keen on sparkles or shimmers. I hope that's the last sparkly thing...

Hmm day 3 and I wish I had dd's amazon calendar!

So far she's had mini Crabtree and Evelyn handcream, wunderbrow brush and shower gel.

I tried day one m and s on my legs - no difference, no idea what to do with the face mask (how long etc) and day 3 is okay.

Which calendar has she got Noeuf? Sounds fab!

Not too struck on Day 3 Shower gel.
I like the smell, it smells very summery.

I'm hoping there'll be some makeup. Lipsticks and that and not all showergels and scrubs and creams.

I've liked all 3 - I already owned the Rosie body glimmer, so happy to have a holiday size tube. Face mask is something different, although I would never buy a mask and I love the Nuxe shower oil and may well buy this. All good for me so far.

Hello can I join too?? Loving the calendar sharing. I'm on mat leave so the chat helps pass the days.

Day 1- like others this reminded me of stuff I'd wear as a teenager. Went out last night and put a bit on my arms but prob wouldn't use again- bit underwhelmed, didn't do too much but smell a bit strong for me.

Day 2- mask looks nice and more up my street. Need to use to revive v tired face!

Day 3- I liked the nuxe oil from last years calendar- not sure about the smell but it left my skin really soft. If this does the same in the shower will be worth it.

Hoping for some good make-up and skincare bits - treats I wouldn't normally buy

Thanks! I am thinking ahead to next year!

Not keen on day one, mostly because it doesn't seem to work on my skin, no shimmer or tint!

I've got the Amazon one
Impressed so far

I've just tried the shower oil. After rinsing, no shimmer has been left on my skin which is good. Although my skin feels slightly softer I haven't been left with the promised satin finish, though my skin does smell lovely (subtly - I have to sniff close up!). A lovely treat compared to the shower cream I'm currently using but I wouldn't buy it myself.

Happy with today’s! I bought myself the nuxe shower set in the January sales after the last calendar so I’m happy!

I’m checking in
Day one,- by hell its a knockout smell! I’ve put it away and might try it in Summer.
Day two- really nice, coloured my hair this afternoon and put the pace mask on at the same time, my skin felt lovely and soft.
Day three- used it in the shower tonight, smells good. I used my normal soap first then this shower oil, not shimmer but felt nice,

Am lying in the bath with the mask on; just looked up the blurb and it promises to erase ALL signs of tiredness - that’s quite some claim!

Interestingly, I much prefer skin/body products to makeup - I have enough makeup to last me a lifetime but I get through body, bath and shower things quite quickly.
