What would you buy from your Advent Calendar?

My thoughtful DH bought me the John Lewis calendar and I found some products that I absolutely love. I've already bought the Evolve Radiant Glow Mask and the Clairns Shea Buttwr body lotion. DH has just bought me the Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream. I love the longevity of the Laura Mercier lipstick but its definitely not a daily use colour for me, I would buy a different shade though. Disappointed with the Bobbie Brown eye shadow stick which looks lovely but doesnt last all day and seems to dry my eyelids out :-/

Anyone else found anything the love? Or were disappointed in?

Murad Vitamin C cleanser is lovely and I'll definitely be buying more of that.
I've used the Clarins Lip Oil daily and my lips are in great condition.
I'm also loving Rituals body lotion and think that will be a regular purchase.

I love the sleep spray from This Works in the m&s calendar.

Good question! I got the spaceNK calendar and to be honest I can't think if anything I would buy, aside from opalex 3 but I already use it anyway!

I did get the gifts with purchase also so quite a few products to try, which I haven't yet so fingers crossed there will be a winner!

I am really going to try to resist the calendars next year. ..may have said that in 2018 as well however!

Does the sleep spray actually work? I am having such disturbed sleep.

I got the sleep spray too but it's one we've rebought a number of times already, it's a lovely sleepy smell

I brought the eyeko mascara but I have had it before and love it, I also like the sleep spray and quite like the EH mask.

I had the SpaceNK advent calendar. I love the By Terry rose lip balm and will definitely buy again. Also like the Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum cream, lovely smell and I like the sheen it gives my dry legs!

I got the bare minerals calendar. Id get the blushers and eye shadows again but they are more or less full sized so i doubt I'll ever need to!
