Well, now I feel cheated! Grin

celeryeater · 11/12/2018 19:47

I didn't have eye serem either... Are you sure it wasn't a different advent calendar,?? Xmas Grin

Maturestudent82 · 11/12/2018 20:08

I definitely didn't get eye serum either- have I been robbed?!

NiceUnusualDifferent · 11/12/2018 20:14

Nor me!

Jaimx86 · 11/12/2018 20:24

So sorry - just checked all my advent drawers and realised I got it in my Look Fantastic box last week Blush

riviana · 11/12/2018 22:06

@Jaimx86: Is the December Look Fantastic Box as good as it looked? I saw a Youtube unboxing and really liked it the look of, but wondered if I could justify getting it because I have the Advent cal.

Today's gift is nice - never heard of it, but looking forward to trying it out!

SickPoinsettia · 12/12/2018 08:07

😂 I'm glad the mystery had been solved! Was worrying then that I'd missed out! Today's one seems nice. My hair is pretty thick already so I'm not fussed about that part but my scalp is always dry and I'm still dealing with a short fluffy halo despite my DD being 16 months.

BringMeTea · 13/12/2018 12:35

Happy enough with today's though I have loads already. On balance I think last year's was better.

Maturestudent82 · 13/12/2018 19:44

I'm not sure about these tanning drops- I don't want to wake up tangoed! But am really looking forward to the hair mask.

HereBeFuckery · 14/12/2018 09:28

I've just (cautiously) tried today's - I LOVE it.

beckslovestimmy · 14/12/2018 09:34

Mature, I tried the drops and it was quite a subtle colour, no streaks and not orange.

LivLemler · 14/12/2018 09:38

Me too HereBeFuckery! Was initially confused and now totally sold on the gimmick.

celeryeater · 14/12/2018 09:45

I love today's too!! Wasn't looking forward to it much, but it's nice and subtle - without being invisible and lovely and moisturising. I will probably wear this a lot.

MathsFiend · 14/12/2018 11:24

Really disappointed by today’s (do we really need to be so mysterious?). This was on of the products I really wanted to try. All it has done is give me shiny lips. Pointless.

Maturestudent82 · 14/12/2018 14:28

These feels so lovely on, but frustratingly mine has obviously melted at some point and then reset all wonky!!

LivLemler · 14/12/2018 18:16

Oh that's a shame maths, mine gives me a definite colour. Not super strong, but I don't wear much lipstick so I prefer it subtle when I do. I'll wear it a lot I'd say (until I forget about it...).

abigamarone · 14/12/2018 23:52

Today's felt like a journey back to the 1980's

SickPoinsettia · 15/12/2018 09:36

Loved yesterday's, was a nice shade of pink for me but I preferred it once the shine had died down a bit. Todays looks good but I haven't used it yet to see.

LivLemler · 15/12/2018 10:13

Why do you say that abigamarone? I'm in need of some new neutral eyeshadows, so looking forward to trying them out.

Lumene · 15/12/2018 11:50

Really pleased with an eyeshadow palette. I usually use Naked 1/2/3 from urban decay so good to try something different.

It was the colour-changing lipstick, I remember having some over 30 years ago

kmmr · 16/12/2018 06:47

Wearing the lippy today and the hair treatment is in! I love when I get time to try things. I love the lipstick. Lovely and moisturising. I don't wear makeup on the weekend so it's a nice subtle colour.

Nice palette yesterday. It appeared by my bed at 6am. My son has decided my calendar is more fun to open than his. Every day he says 'oh, look at this lovely thing'.
Today's is not my style. I never use it, but will pass it on. :)

LivLemler · 16/12/2018 11:08

I've never successfully used eye liner. Got my make up done for a wedding a few months ago and she used quite a dramatic liner on me and I loved it. Maybe this will inspire me to experiment.

MyNameIsJane · 16/12/2018 14:10

I think I’ll get my daughter to try and master eyeliner on me and then do the same for her.
