In line with the other opening threads, suggest no earlier than 7am for discussing that day’s item(s).

Looking forward to tomorrow!

Very happy with this, and a great size. Hoorah!

I'm excited to try this - it was one of the products that drew me towards this calendar over others.

This looks like an amazing calendar

So happy with today, It’s something I already use and love

Day 12, Space NK Voyage Body Wash, 350ml, £14

Energise your mind while calming the body with this gently foaming body wash, made with uplifting adaptogen ashwaghanda along with agave extracts and jojoba esters which work to soothe and soften the skin.

Voyage’s transportive scent is reminiscent of a dreamy holiday in warm, far-off shores and includes fragrance notes of mandarin, coconut & sandalwood.

This bottle is made using 40% post-consumer recycled plastic and is 100% recyclable. Because our pumps are harder to recycle, we encourage you to reuse these by either refilling your original bottles at one of our refill stations in selected Space NK stores*, or you can purchase a refill bottle online and attach your original pump.

*Refill stations are available in Regents Street, Kings Cross, St. Johns Wood, Northcote Road, Parsons Green and Bath.

Not the most exciting but it’s a decent size and I’ll get good use out of it. Happy with today!

Happy with this one. Great size. I was pleasantly surprised by their hand wash so looking forward to this.

Meh. Wish it wasn’t own brands

Overall I’m happy with the products and that so many are full size
for me a big improvement on Liberty calendar already
the body wash sounds lush. Not tried Space NK own brands but happy to give this a go

This is an 'OK' day for me. Not terribly exciting but a good staple that will get used at some point.

I used todays as a bubble bath and it was fab. It smells great and left my skin really soft.

For those with fake eyelashes not good :) will give this one to my sister

@EasterIssland not for me either but at least it’s not a high value item!

Day 13, Rare Beauty Perfect Strokes Universal Volumizing Mascara, 3ml sample size (tiny), worth £3.22

I love a new mascara to try so not a 100% drawer of disappointment but the size is so teeny! I guess there have to be some low value items to balance out the big ticket items...

@bigdecisionstomake definitely! and I heard this is a really good brand too?

The size is ridiculous. I’m really not impressed with this calendar this year.

Bit disappointed with today's offering. I don't know the brand and it's a tiny size. Hopefully something more impressive tomorrow!

Love Rare Beauty. Their liquid blush is 😍
but yes the size of the gift today is poor
but will try as really rate the brand

I love the calendar so far. I thoroughly checked the contents before I bought it, so I knew to expect the odd teeny sized product.

Last 2 days not great. Own brand body wash and an insy winsy teeny tiny mascara. Maybe it’s a single use one as I doubt it will last any longer. Going for Cult Beauty next year.

I can always use a black mascara, it's the one product I always wear (if I'm wearing make up at all). Don't usually like shower gels - i'm a soap woman - but this one smells of Je Reviens or one of those very soft '70s florals - smells exactly like my mum, in a good way, so I'm unusually happy with that one.

I love a tiny mascara. Great for travel and you're meant to chuck them every so often anyway.

On a separate note if you are on the market for a lip liner this lip liners by this brand are up there with the best I love them so much x

Nice size cleanser. I’ve got a few sachets of this brand and really like them

Never used this brand before and not sure if it is a foaming face wash to be rinsed off in the shower or better wiped off with a flannel. Was hoping for @Zoetrope1 to do one of her lovely helpful product summaries to help me decide! Will have to go off and Google...

@bigdecisionstomake hahaha sorry I’ve been a bit slack today! looks great to me too!
