Very pleased with today’s too! Tried it on in my PJs and said, ooh that’ll be my festive lip colour!

Good work M&S Smile

Decaffe · 16/12/2021 09:20

Nice to have a pinky lip colour, bit different to the usual ‘nude,’ and more festive!

FreshFaceTime · 16/12/2021 09:24

It doesn't suit my skin tone Sad I like the texture so would buy in a different shade. Tried it twice just to be sure and it definitely looks shit. Ah well.

H1Drangea · 16/12/2021 09:39

I like this one too , good colour on me and easy and smooth to apply

DobbyTheHouseElk · 16/12/2021 09:39

It’s too pale for my skin tone, but I can put a lip liner on first.

toastfiend · 16/12/2021 09:49

I'm really pleased with today's! Nice colour and easy to apply. Can see this one always being in my handbag.

My skin is feeling really nice since using all the products in the calendar, too.

mynameiscalypso · 16/12/2021 11:15

I like this too. It's nice to have a lip colour that isn't red in the calendar!

Yes totally agree, I had the Amazon calendar last year and it had 2 or 3 bright red lip products, not very useful at all.

This feels nice, its very similar to my natural lip colour so its kind of a nude for me but I like it and would def try a different shade.

FreshFaceTime · 16/12/2021 12:00

Damn you people and your smug enjoyment of pink! I love a red lip!

PomRuns · 16/12/2021 12:16

It looks lovely but also not my colour - I’ll give to one of my friends.

LOL. I can’t wear red - so who’s smug now 🤣
lockdownalli · 16/12/2021 14:05

I really like this crayon. Not tried before, but the colour is good for me.

RampantIvy · 16/12/2021 14:30

The colour is a bit pinky for me, but I will wear it over a red lipstick.

Nuffaluff · 16/12/2021 15:24

I am smugly enjoying the pink. It’s great.

Westerman · 16/12/2021 15:27

I love the colour of the lip crayon, but when I passed the mirror an hour or so later, the product had migrated onto the skin around my lips!

NoEffingWay · 16/12/2021 15:32

Pleased with today's offering, and in general the calendar has been my favourite out of these over the years.

OnthePiste · 16/12/2021 15:50

Lovely product but too blue for me. I think I might treat myself to one in a different shade though.

EachandEveryone · 16/12/2021 16:29

Its too insipid for me. I lime a bold colour.

AnnieSnap · 16/12/2021 16:50

I’m really happy with today’s. I would never have bought it, but I love it. It’s a great colour on me and I love how it glides on and isn’t tacky.

Same here, but I had been out for my booster, so wearing a mask for the best part of an hour won't have helped.
RampantIvy · 17/12/2021 06:35

Not excited by today's offering.

cloudtree · 17/12/2021 06:42

Brown mascara isn’t exactly a staple for most people.

I have to admit though, I’ve never tried it. As a brunette I’ve always used black but I’ll give it a go.

Talisin · 17/12/2021 06:48

Will prob pass this on to Mum as it’s not my colour but is hers.

LizzieSiddal · 17/12/2021 07:04

I always use brown/black mascara as It doesn’t look so harsh. I’ve never tried just brown so this will be interesting.
