It’s been great to read all your reviews but sorry to hear that @WorryMcGee Flowers

Another Venn fan here and I like the Sunday Riley eye cream. I did go all in with exfolikate once a week, BS vitamin C every day and the Dr S retinol once a week. My skin was going a bit red after all that so I’m just going for the weekly retinol for now. I used the miracle oil at nighttime which has been good for my Winter dry skin but once it’s gone I won’t repurchase.
The bath oil is quite pleasant but I think too expensive to repurchase. The hair products I’ve lived were the OI oil and the Social life for your hair. Those I will definitely buy again. The later one I rub through wet hair and leave to dry for a natural curly look. The lipstick is a great colour but the Trish M mascara is only OK on me. My lashes could do with more thickening but the lack of panda eyes is a definite advantage.

A lovely PP upthread gave a tip on how to use the bath oil that has really worked for me. I'm not fond of baths so was worried the bottle would just get dusty and unused. Instead, I run a few drops of oil into my hands before I step in the shower then rub across my chest. Smells and feels fab that way. Thank you PP who suggested using it this way!

I wasn’t using exfoliate but I might have to start using it after your reviews!

I do like the eye cream and I think I’ll purchase again. Waiting for my la mer cream to finish to start using the venn one

I bought a bottle of the miracle oil (50ml) in early January as loved it so much, from the company direct, as they had a bit of a sale on at that time. It was completely different in colour and smell to what we had in our calendar😳 in fact, it had no smell, so I wrote to them explaining and with a photo. They sent me out another bottle from a different batch, which is more like the colour we received, though the aroma is still not quite the same. Good to read the reviews here as I still have lots of products still to try this year as I saved them.

I’ve got one of this for sell if you’re keen on another one @purplelicious

EasterIssland · 22/02/2023 12:24

I just sold the candle! Hello If you’re around whoever bought it!

WhenisitmyturntobePM · 22/02/2023 15:32

There are some kits in store but only a few if that helps anyone. Liberty said so on insta, I haven’t checked personally.

EasterIssland · 22/02/2023 22:17

Jusr sold the oil as well :) I’m regretting giving stuff to my sister ! I could have got more cash :)

tellmewhentheLangshiplandscoz · 23/02/2023 10:14

Well done Easter! I'm having problems with what I think may be eczema or similar on my eyelids and under eyes these days so reckon all masks and a variety of other products could be winging their way onto Vinted soon. Sad

EasterIssland · 23/02/2023 12:45

That’s a shame @tellmewhentheLangshiplandscoz

ive got fake eyelashes so all eye make up I gave it to my sister. Next year def I’ll put more on vinted as I did give her quite a lot! (I had space nk as well)

purplelicious · 23/02/2023 14:03

@EasterIssland - Thankyou, but I did buy another from EBay when I'd run out of the one we had in the calendar and was waiting fir the new 50ml, so I think I've got enough for about 6 months now lol. I also bought a few more 20ml of the Venn cream from EBay to keep me going until about the Summer...

purplelicious · 23/02/2023 14:07

@UglyModernWindows - Re the Venn cream, have a look on EBay as people were selling off the contents of calendars....I bought 4 additional ones to keep me going 😊

laclochette · 23/02/2023 19:29

Haha I've bought about 4 Venn creams too. Works out much cheaper than buying the "real" thing.

UglyModernWindows · 23/02/2023 19:46

@purplelicious I have thought of that but had assumed all those unwanted samples would have been sold by now. Anyhoo thanks to your prompt, I checked out Vinted (because I have some existing credit to use there) and have now bought one from there! Thanks for the push Grin

WorryMcGee · 31/03/2023 11:00

Oh wow @EasterIssland 🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

countdowntonap · 30/11/2023 22:42

Is anyone opening a 3023 thread? Don’t want to tread on anyone’s toes, but aware there’s only a few hours until the opening of drawer 1!

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 01/12/2023 06:41

Yes is there a thread for this year ?

kenyaswhiterefrigerator · 01/12/2023 06:42

Found it !
