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 :)

Does anyone know how to open the loose Hourglass powder? There is some kind of plastic seal and I can’t work out how to remove it.

I'm very impressed with that deodorant we got in day 5 or 6. It really works

BloodyCats · 09/12/2019 07:18

It should just peel off. Just be careful it doesn’t go flying everywhere. I’ve been gently tapping the pot in to the lid to get it out.

Today’s gift looks good. I’ve used this before, does what it says on the tin.

Today's is good. Will definitely use.
Might save for a week away as a perfect travel size.

Yey cleanser!! I liked the deodorant last year so looking forward to trying this Smile

whatsinthebagwhatcoulditbe · 09/12/2019 11:11

I am also super impressed with the deodorant. Much better than the M&G one last year. I could actually see myself switching to this, in winter at least.

Excited to try these skincare products today. I've only ever tried M&G body products (shower gel etc) so interested to know what their facial stuff is like.

Thanks re powder. Will trying peeling off

BloodyCats · 10/12/2019 07:05

I’m not sure how I feel about this...

I love the Rose hand wash it is brilliant. I have been using it for a few days as 2 of my calendar drawers got mixed up. This morning I have the hourglass powder that the rest of you had a few days ago.

BloodyCats · 10/12/2019 08:05

Do you find it actually cleans your hands chicky?

Chickydoo · 10/12/2019 08:35

Bloodycats it seems to work really well, you only need a tiny tiny bit, doesn't leave hands sticky or anything

AesopsMables · 10/12/2019 09:14

Love this!
Will be useful for my travels and smells fabulous 👍🏽

MabelMoo23 · 10/12/2019 19:42

Am sticking it in the changing bag!

TerpsichoreanMuse · 11/12/2019 05:49

This is a good one, just what I need. Finally some makeup! Retail value is about £29!

BloodyCats · 11/12/2019 07:36

This looks good! I like Trish McEvoy stuff, it’s always good quality.

How would you use it on your cheeks without it looking like a crayon?

Chickydoo · 11/12/2019 07:38

Oooo nice, very happy with this. Cream blusher & lippy in one. Good colour too. Will use this today & report back.

queenofkale · 11/12/2019 07:55

Oh I like this. I've just put it on and it's nice I'm not a huge lippy fan. But this actually looks great.

MrsArcher23 · 11/12/2019 08:18

Lovely. Using immediately.

imp2007 · 11/12/2019 13:19

Love today's!!! Great winter colour

HappyInL0nd0n · 11/12/2019 18:22

Delighted with today's. Great colour & love Trish McEvoy stuff.

The powder is such a tiny sample compared to last year. Bit disappointed with that one. I loved the Laura Mercier version last year.

wetpants · 11/12/2019 19:30

I found you! Yey! My DH bought me the calendar and so far I’m really pleased with it. Previously I’ve had Jo Malone and Fenwick’s ones but thus one is miles better.

My personal favourites are the eye cream, universal cream and Herbivore oil. But the best so far is today’s lip crayon, the colour is as perfect as it could be on me 🥰

bellabelly · 12/12/2019 00:26

Delighted with the Trish McEvoy - will use it as lipstick (don't really do contouring!) and the colour is perfect for me.

Chickydoo · 12/12/2019 07:35

Today's is a real winner! Susanne Kaufman bath oil.
I am going to use in a moment, water is pouring. Smells gorgeous.
I love bath oils, happy days

BloodyCats · 12/12/2019 07:40

Hello wetpants Smile

Loving today’s! Bath oil is so luxurious, I will enjoy using this.

I’m not sure if yesterday’s lipstick suits me. I don’t usually wear it so I feel it looks weird on me. It’s lovely on my cheeks though.
