Hi All,
Apologies if there is another thread about this, but I couldn't find it. So I thought I would start one.
Happy to get it deleted if there is one already, if not - happy unboxing, let's hear what you think :)

Thanks to this thread I've just realised I got the day wrong and opened tomorrow's box today Grin

Looking forward to the bath oil! I liked the SK oil last year.

BloodyCats · 13/12/2019 07:33

Nice. My lips are very dry this time of year so this is handy.

This looks lovely.

I am absolutely adoring the perfume. If anyone on here is interested in swapping, I can offer almost anything else from this calendar or a couple of possible items from Cult Beauty? DH was going to buy me a bottle for Christmas but ran screaming when he saw the price!

Chickydoo · 13/12/2019 07:47

Although I love lip balms, I do have a few open already, so DD will benefit from this one.

BloodyCats · 13/12/2019 07:48

Still can’t make my mind up on the lipstick. Does it age me or suit my skin tone?

I’ve had a couple of squirts but would swap you Double.
Perfume doesn’t stick to me so as lovely as it smells it’s pointless for me.

queenofkale · 13/12/2019 07:53

@Doubleraspberry I'll definitely swap the perfume with you.

Chickydoo · 13/12/2019 08:01

Bloodycats lippy looks fabulous on you, really great!

Doubleraspberry · 13/12/2019 08:12

@BloodyCats and @queenofkale, that’s brilliant, thanks. I’ll PM you both.

Doubleraspberry · 13/12/2019 08:12

And the lippy looks great.

LizzieMacQueen · 13/12/2019 09:26

I feel the same about the perfume. My favourite by far so I'd love a swap too.

Pomegranatepompom · 13/12/2019 11:19

Have we had a perfume ????

Doubleraspberry · 13/12/2019 11:40

Yes! Very near the start - the Peony perfume.

Pomegranatepompom · 13/12/2019 11:51

I don’t think I got that!

Pomegranatepompom · 13/12/2019 17:00

I’ve lost the plot - I did get it Blush

Thank you bloodycats!

Well blow me down with a feather, I’ve trialled the deodorant paste today and it’s been amazing! It’s something I’d never buy as I’d think it would be useless on me. I had to buy Mitchum as I’m now perimenopausal, but this paste stuff has really kept me feeling fresh all day and smelling really nice too. I’d have never believed it before though.

Pomegranatepompom · 13/12/2019 23:20

The lipstick does look very lovely on you.
I’m encouraged to try the deodorant.

I’m going to have the lipstick and the powder up for swaps, not tried but they won’t suit my skin tone.

Chickydoo · 14/12/2019 08:22

Today's is fabulous! Dr seabagh Vit C powder.
Mix with serum or moisturiser
I have been using the serum since last years calendar (a couple of re-purchases) mixed with the powder this morning, made my skin feel dry, so slapped a ton of moisturiser on afterwards, will try for a few days & report back.

BloodyCats · 14/12/2019 08:32

Yessss, this should be good! I loved the hyaluronic acid from last year, my skin was glowing when I used it every day.
Really looking forward to trying this one.

I have the Dr Sebagh hyaluronic acid from last years calendar. How should I use it? I tried it on my skin at the time but I found the texture odd. Can I mix it with moisturise?

BloodyCats · 14/12/2019 09:39

wetpants I used it after cleansing. Wait for your skin to dry, then apply a few drops to your fingers and spread around your face. I focused on my forehead and cheek bones. Once dry you can apply whatever moisturiser you like.

I used it every day and noticed the difference in my skin after a couple of weeks. It just looked glowing and hydrated.

I’ve used the vit c powder this morning. It mixed easily with my moisturiser and my skin looks good so far Smile

Jammydoughnuts · 14/12/2019 22:30

I can't use the vit c powder as it contains silicone, I couldn't use the face powder or moisturiser either. Why do so many beauty products contain silicone Angry
