Liberty Advent Calendar

[Chickydoo]

Well here we go.
I couldn't see another thread, so thought I would start one.
Will try & post pictures if I remember.
If I forget perhaps someone else could post.
Day no1 coming up

[quote Nc135]@thecognoscenti the card says to leave on for 10 minutes so yes like a mask. I have to say the calendar is now coming into its own. Random beautiful things I would never buy.[/quote]
Thank you! I'm nervous about acids and didn't want to mess it up...

This looks interesting
Prism, facial glow with AHA's
Dull to radiant in 10 mins.
It's going on now, I will let you know if I glow

Another tiny sample size. 🤨
I do like this brand but can get a sample this size FOC from my local Space NK.
The Liberty box is beautiful (I keep reminding myself)

I don't think they hand over 15ml samples in my my space nk tbh. Maybe with GWP but not if you ask for sample. It's worth 16.8 euro or 15.9 calculated looking at the full size price. It's double what we pay for single door, so I feel it's not too bad. 15ml mask will get me at least 7 uses

I don't disagree re sizes. It will be nice to get some actual full sizes products and they advertised all the travel sizes as full setting us up for unrealistic expectations and little bit of disappointment. It probably does not help that they keep to the same size box for every day unlike cult beauty or Space Nk and it making it impossible to have larger items

Opened three days worth this morning due to three full on days at work - covid vaccine’s so a good reason to skip!

Three lovely products. The perfume is stunning, might become a purchase for me and I’ve just used the mask and my skin feels soft and much fresher.

Really pleased with the little selection

I changed my mind on the perfume, it's lovely. I like it enough to consider purchasing it and that's surprising considering my initial disappointment

So my drawer today included two explanation cards - for Day 6! The writing on the pot is too small for my old eyes, but gathering from here that it's a mask I should leave on for ten minutes - and then I'll glow.

Whilst I really like this product it would have been nice if the lid on the pot had been put on properly, most of the product has soaked into the tissue paper and the side of the box.There is just enough left for 2 applications. I am enjoying the daily treats and have been happy with the products.

I'm too scared to use this. What does it do??

This looks fab. Should I wash my face before? Then apply? Or just slap it on and wash off with cleanser? I find masks confusing!

wash and dry. Also better used at night as it has acids in it. If using during the day you need to apply spf after

hope this helps

It's interesting that so many of us had the same reaction to the perfume - initial scepticism which then turned to love!

@MiaN I feel exactly the same about the perfume. I really hated it at first and now I love it! Isn't that odd?? I wonder how many perfumes I have sniffed over the years and been dismissive of, perhaps I should have given them a chance. I am thinking of re-purchasing too

I too love the perfume! The dry down is not sweet at all and the tea comes through more. Would def re-purchase👍🏽

Pleased with todays, it's not something I'd buy as I'm always nervous of anything with acid in the title . It is weird that the blurb from Liberty said 18 full size products which as we're on day 9 and none of them can be is .

I decided to keep ranking - from favourite to least so far

1 the top spot VENNAGE-REVERSING ALL IN ONE CONCENTRATE 20ML love this
2 VILHELM PARFUMERIEDEAR POLLY EAU DE PARFUM 10ML shocked how it went from meh to oh yeah in a day!
3 HERBIVOREPRISM 20% AHA 5% BHA EXFOLIATING GLOW FACIAL 15ML looking forward trying this
4 NARSVELVET MATTE LIP PENCIL IN DRAGON GIRL not colour I would choose myself but it will get few uses
5 AROMATHERAPY ASSOCIATESFOREST THERAPY BATH AND SHOWER OIL 9ML love the scent, wish it was little bigger. Space NK have 60ml bath oil with nicer scent in the advent
6 BAMFORDGERANIUM HAND & BODY WASH 100ML love the scent looking forward using it
7 DERMALOGICAPRE-CLEANSE 30ML already have but love the product
8 AVEDABOTANICAL REPAIR LEAVE IN TREATMENT 25ML will try the hair brush tip! Still trying to make it work
9 MARIO BADESCUWITCH HAZEL & ROSEWATER TONER not for me at all

Only one product I am not going to use at all! The value of products so far is about 168 gbp, and the product I don't like is worth only 3.

I love reading this thread as I’ll never be able to bug myself one of these! What’s the exact name of the perfume? I’m after a new one and this sounds (smells?!) interesting!

Wow I hadn't checked the price of the full bottle before. As much as the full calendar was..

Ooops maybe not then!! 😬

Yes £185 for 100ml of the perfume. At that price it should be nice it's a hit from me

I’m so gutted at how expensive the perfume is! I really love it but the full price is bonkers. I’m tragically sniffing the bottle so as not to waste any. I don’t normally wear perfume but have totally got obsessed with this one!

Thanks for the masking advice @MiaN and I totally agree on ranking.

Interested to try the Prism product, hadn't heard of it. Allmycats I would contact Liberty, they should replace it for you.

I wore the Nars pencil yesterday evening and it was very long lasting surviving mulled cider.

Anyone else getting dry skin after using the pre-cleanse? I think it must be that rather than the Venn that's making my skin feel dry. I didn't get on well with the Dermalogica eye repair last year either.

I might get the body spray vilhelmparfumerie.com/collections/parfums/products/all-over-spray-dear-polly

stokey yes, I had used the pre-cleanse before and it does not agree with my skin. Will use it for cleaning brushes and sponges, as someone recommended.
