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 Smile

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

I'm so pleased with the perfume. I got the same one in a Tili box in September and use it all the time. I love the orange/musk smell.

Happy today Smile I think this was in there last year. Lovely smell and we’ve not had a cleanser yet.

Happy with yesterday’s scent. Unfortunately today’s offering, although lovely, makes my skin break out so it’s on the swap pile.

Never used anything fron this brand, had my eye on an oil for £35, so nice to try something else so it gives me a taster of the brand!Grin

Oh I absolutely love today’s. If anyone would like to swap for the (unopened) liquid rose gold (or pretty much anything else) i’d love to.

How do you use a cleanser like this? Wipe it on with fingers and wash off? Thank you!

MsJaneAusten · 14/12/2017 07:21

I put it on with fingers then use a flannel to wash it off.

Well DS2 has just told me I look "completely different!" after using the liquid gold last night. DS1 raised his eyebrows and said "honestly, you look exactly the same." I told him he has some way to go before he's perfected his technique of flattering women.

Loving the Emma Hardie balm. I use this range anyway. Beware if you have eyelash extensions it may well take them off

I love Emma Hardie but it’s too expensive to buy so I’m pleased.

@DurhamDurham do you fancy swapping today’s for the dragons blood one?

Don't mind at all that this is a duplicate from last year's calendar as it is such a great product. I use it like Cleanse and Polish, so massage in with fingers and remove with hot flannel.

Ihatethecold it’s a deal! Smile
I’m just about to leave the house but if you pm me your address I’ll get it in the post today. I’ll pm you my address once I get to the office. **

Happy with today's. I once used a full size pot of this and while it was nice, it didn't really do anything for my skin so I wouldn't buy it again. I'll use this small size though, for a change.

MsJaneAusten - I thought the same about yesterday's perfume but it is a different scent by the same brand.

Happy with today's offering. Still have last years to use too! I used to use this and liked it but haven't used it for a while.

Now. I have a dilemma. I'm going away today until Monday. Can't decide whether to take the next four boxes or wait till I get back. And hide this thread till then! I'm taking a suitcase so I could take them........ maybe I'll take them. I do enjoy opening them every morning and then coming on here to see what you are all saying.

M&S beats my Liberty calendar today which has the Eve Lom Vaselinecleanser in today.

Yesterday's perfume was nice but after an hour I couldn't smell it any more!

Take them, Cider - I couldn't wait!

The perfume faded quickly on me too. It's nice enough but the orange scent disappeared quickly on me, leaving the leather/ woody smell. I'm vegetarian and wish I hadn't read the description as I find the word leather off-putting, even though I wear leather bags and shoes!

I think I might leave this one to try until January. I had a tester of Eve Lom about a year ago that gave me a really nasty reaction, I looked like I'd been stung all over my face by bees. I don't even know what caused it because the ingredients list was so long, but I suspect that this one might have some common ingredients with the Eve Lom product so I'm a bit wary.

Can someone help identify what the fuck is ho No in with my neck?!
I’ve got about 5 of these things on my neck. They are rock hard, have never had anything like it! I’ve been using the Dragons Blood and Gatineau, like it’s going out of fashion, as I’m old!
