Cult Beauty Advent Calendar 2020

[Writersblock2]

Thought I’d better start a thread for this beauty. No spoilers please! Only post in each appropriate day.

Swaps etc. allowed.

A bumper day! The lip thing smells awful but I’ll try it and see if it works. Love the look of the other two!

I've rebought the By Terry several times. It's excellent. If you like it I'd really recommend the Misty Rock shade too. I won't bother with the Too Faced. My lips can get irritated and I'm happy with their size. The mascara looks nice.

Happy with the mascara, dd has now been given the lip thing (these things just make my lips so dry afterwards) and haven’t actually read what the ByTerry thing is - is it eyeshadow?

Its eye shadow and its lovely!

I gave the milk product to my niece and the mascara as I have few already but loving the eye shadow

The lip product went in the bin. They plump through irritation- no thanks.

I'm putting my lip product on eBay. It's one of the three items I knew I wouldn't use.

Are we doing swaps on this thread? Is it worth waiting until all are opened so we have the full range to swap from?

Lip product will be given to my niece as part of her Christmas present.

The mascara is very nice, went on well with no clumping although the brush is too big for my liking.

The eye shadow crayon is absolutely gorgeous, applied beautifully with no dragging. I'll be having a look to purchase it in other colours.

Today's item arrived damaged and I had to ask Cult Beauty for replacement. They were very quick to send me one!

I am not sure it's going to work for me. it's very pigmented and it seems to apply patchy on my skin

Wearing yesterday's by terry eye shadow today, it applied so easy and it's very pretty! Hope it lasts/fades well

My item today is also damaged, good to hear they replaced yours @MiaN

What damage do you think is worth reporting? I've a fine crack down the right hand side so it seems a bit petty complaining. What do you think?

It’s a cushion blusher, mine has a crack at the edge too (how strange, I can’t figure out how or why) but I can still use it so it doesn’t effect the product at all! If something was unusable I’d let them know but I wouldn’t throw this out if they sent me a new one therefore there’s not really anything wrong with it in my eyes.

It’s very pretty though, more highlighty on me, it’s way too pale to be a blusher on my skin time but the glow is so soft and subtle, I love it.

Time
TONE!!

This was the state of mine but I am honestly impressed by cult beauty speedy resolving the issue

For tiny crack I wouldn't bother but this will fall out and make huge mess if trying to use as it is

Actually after looking again it’s not a cushion blusher at all is it? Not sure how I thought it was first time round, it’s just so soft!

My 'damage' sounds similar to yours @TheChosenTwo. It's odd. The whole box of palettes must've suffered a knock before the calendars were made perhaps?

I doubt I'll be carrying it around and it doesn't affect it's use so I'll keep this one to use myself. Love the packaging.

Mine was in 3 separate bits and a lot of loose powder so it really isn’t usable. It looks like a really pretty colour, can’t wait to see it on the inside of my face mask

I just contacted them by facebook messenger and send photo of the damage. They were very speedy to resend new one!

This colour seems a tad bright OTT on my skin (whereas the first blush is perfect)

I prefer the first blush and I am medium skin tone. It's very heavily pigmented/high shine

I am thinking it could be nicer on holidays but not sure

Tried the too faced without reading about it, what as mistake, awful products. Lips were on fire for ages and ended up smothering my lips in laneige sleep mask

@TinyTroubleMaker I’m over the moon to have a blush from a calendar that shows up on my skin!! The Hourglass one has been donated as it shows up as grey on my face, this one is a really beautiful tint, so happy!

ah that's great @Thechosentwo . It's good that they have blushes that would suit variety of skin tones.
