Day by Day M&S Beauty Calendar - No Spoilers (from 14 Dec)

[happypoobum]

Here's a new thread as the old one is getting very full

pic I always use porefessional but was impressed as well.
well oh I have a few swaps, shall we wait till tomorrow??

Good plan. Tomorrow will DEFINITELY be an amazing eye cream though & I'm not swapping that

Another Porefessional lover here, will look forward to using the primer when I am away next month.

I do like the sleep cream and found it good last year. However, it is another night cream isn't it? I would like eye cream and hand cream really..............

Fingers crossed.

An eye cream would be good.

Happy with today's. Have had it before and liked it. Haven't let myself buy a full size yet as I had a couple of night creams on the go.

I'm sad we only have two days left.

I'm really pleased with this! I had never heard of it a few days ago but then I read a thread where people were raving about it so I'm happy that I get to try it.

Is this the one we had last year?

An eye cream would have been good. We had two last year.

And a handcream.

I don't think that counts as moaning justgreat when you can see the positive side too! I agree though that it would make sense for the calendars to be a bit more balanced, with one of each staple product rather than two of some and none of others. Personally I would expect an eye cream and a hand cream too rather than two mascaras and two lip products. Given that they have access to the M&S own brands it wouldn't seem difficult to do.

Yesterday I opened the rest of my box before we left to the PiL for Xmas. I'm pleased with this sleep cream as I've heard lots of good things about it and am not in the U.K so can't buy it easily. I've carted loads of the products with me to use over the next two weeks while we're away do hopefully I'll be looking great!

Really pleased with today's - loved it so much from last year's calendar I splashed out on the full size, just about to run out. I'll definitely repurchase it too, but it's lovely to have a travel sized one, because the full size is in a glass jar.

Love today's. I've just finished my jar of it and hoping to get another for Christmas so this will see me through perfectly. I would have liked an even slightly red/pink toned lip product but that's unlikely now. I don't use eye cream but happy to join in the wishing for one for tomorrow!

Ooooh really love todays! Although it will compete with my Korres (which I was so happy with I bought more). Dilemma!

Who said 21-24 offerings were crap?

NefretForth what's micellar water?

wellthatsjustgreat I'd love something for dark circles. They're my BIGGEST beauty flaw. I've tried everything.

I am really happy with today’s, had it last year but I swapped it away and regretted it after hearing all the good reviews. Def keeping this one!

2 more days - I think eye cream or hand cream tomorrow they’ve covered the face cream bases pretty well now

I’m still hankering after a neutral suits everyone eyeshadow though - might have to treat myself after Xmas then

I don't mind not having an eye cream as I just use normal face cream around my eye area. And I have enough hand cream to last a lifetime! I would also have loved a pink lip colour.

Another vote for eye cream!

Last year there was a crystal nail file. That was a good one.

Dunno what micellar water is, in chemical terms, but you just swipe it over your face on a cotton wool pad and it cleans off any make-up apart from waterproof mascara. For lazy types like me who can't be arsed putting cleanser on and then splashing face with water and getting it all down their front, it's brilliant.

Pengweng you're a thank you for my swaps - didn't realise you were sending 2 products so am really pleased.

I tried the gold nail polish and it didn't look right on me so have handed it on to dn along with the Stila which was just too drying for me.

The sleep cream is a good one so will use that when I finish the Korres and will also use the primer - I don't use primer regularly so that will probably last me until the Xmas 2018 calendar!

I used the face oil on Thursday night and my skin felt amazing on Friday morning so I will definitely keep using that and when I've some more time, will investigate the rest of that range.

I haven't tried the rose oil on my face yet but did try it on my cuticles and it worked really well.

I'm also looking forward to trying today's given how much I've liked the Korres.

Someone asked unthread about whether it was ok to start swops or wait til the end.....quite a few swops have already been taking place so don't think there is any harm in mentioning what you would like/have to offer.

Can't wait to try the M&S Sleep in a tube. Smells lush.
It reminds me of Guerlain's Midnight Secret which is fab. I used to buy it when I had more money pre kids

I like today’s cream and I can’t wait to use it 😍

I've never found an eye cream that did anything for me and last year's was really crap weird, all spongy somehow, so dont mind too much, but a serum thing would be nice. Or one of those stila foil eye shadows I was eyeing up in store a while ago...

Long-time lurker just here to post this re: today's product (can't wait to try it tonight!) www.telegraph.co.uk/beauty/skin/22-night-cream-has-waiting-list-75k/amp/

Oooh, I was feeling a little underwhelmed by today's but after reading the comments here, and that article, I can't wait to try it!

Have I missed something? What is 'face footner'?? I don't have anything called face footner. I had autograph primer and an ultimate sleep cream the last two days.

Well I tried the sleep cream last night (opened mine early as I had an early start) and I so wanted to be impressed but it did bugger all for me even after an aspirin facemask
