Nearly not never or my post doesn't make sense Grin

I don’t get how to use the day 1 contouring palette. It found it quite dry and not very blendable to use as an eyeshadow (which I know is not what it’s designed for).

Also the blush looks quite scarily orange. Has anyone tried it?

Lumene · 02/12/2018 16:29

Pleased with the miscellaneous water though - had just run out!

Lumene · 02/12/2018 16:42

Miscellar!

Jaimx86 · 03/12/2018 07:25

Hmmm. I’ve had today’s product twice before in beauty boxes and it just doesn’t do anything for me. Disappointed today 😏

InfiniteSheldon · 03/12/2018 07:33

Loving today's

Maturestudent82 · 03/12/2018 07:36

I've used this before and really like it Smile

TranmereRover · 03/12/2018 08:39

Placemarking...today’s promise of 72 hours frizz Free has me and the DDs fighting for first test! (Am unsure about day 1 palette but I don’t own a bronzer - and thankfully was prevented from spending £££ on a Trish Mcevoy one a week or so ago when the fire alarm went off in liberty causing an evacuation!- so will hang on to it for that. Am also going to an 80s party this weekend so an orange tidemark around the chin should be achievable with it!

Costacoffeeplease · 03/12/2018 08:45

I use this regularly so am v pleased to get it todaySmile

Can I join in? The palette looks lovely from day 1, I'm going to wash my hair soon and try out todays treat! I've had a no 7 beauty calendar before, I loved that but this one seems so much better.

Yeah, it's meh. Not keen on PnR products but hey, who knows what tomorrow brings?

Costacoffeeplease · 03/12/2018 11:31

I really like PnR, especially their no-oil oil, and the wonder balm

I received mine yesterday and have caught up! The box is massive.

TranmereRover · 04/12/2018 08:02

Can anyone actually read the writing on today’s? It’s trolling me about my age :-(

loobylou10 · 04/12/2018 08:53

Ha ha. Same - I came in here to see if anyone knew what it is? Can't read it!!

Costacoffeeplease · 04/12/2018 10:00

It’s a firming mask I think

Ok, after finding some direct sunlight.... you apply avoiding brows and hairline. Leave 20-30 mins then peel off and rinse. Turns silveryish? as it dries/does its thing. I may be paraphrasing but that's the gist. I am happy with it.

myrtleWilson · 04/12/2018 10:02

I bought my DD this and she loves the hdbrows palette. Apparently the glowglam brand from today is "what all the celebrities use" the wisdom of a teenage 😂

Bobbywashere · 04/12/2018 10:11

I can only read it when I take my contacts out. I'm so short sighted the writing then looks huge. I like glam glow so happy with this product today.

beckslovestimmy · 04/12/2018 13:52

Mine has just arrived, just caught up and may have sneaked a peak at a few of the other boxes! I didn't think it would be as big/good quality. Excited to try everything so far.

LivLemler · 04/12/2018 19:53

Just putting DD down and then I'll try today's - anyone tried it yet? Will have to put DH on baby duty, it'd be just my luck to get stuck on an hour long cluster feed with the mask solidifying and destroying my face...

Lumene · 05/12/2018 13:09

Pleased with today I needed one of these

beckslovestimmy · 05/12/2018 13:22

I used the pallet from day one today and I'm really pleased with the look. I blended all the foundation colours together and it was a good match for my skin tone. The blusher and bronzer worked well too and it's the first time I've used a highlighter (really liked the look). Pleased with the eyebrow pencil from today, same colour as one I've recently got. The miceller water worked well to take off my mascara. I think I'll try the peel off mask thing over the weekend. Really impressed so far with all the things.

Lumene · 05/12/2018 13:31

Well done becks i’m Not sure I have the skills or skin tone for the palette. Will definitely try the blush though.
