Todays is great for me as DH is allergic to most sunscreens except this brand so he will use this when he's out doing sports.

I've got the Glossybox one for January - looking forward to seeing what it has to offer!

Today's is a big yawn for me. I can't work out how I'd wear a lip balm with SPF - does it go under or over lipstick?? I usually use lip balm at night anyway. I guess DD1 can make use of it for skiing.

I didn't realise there was a 25, and nearly put the box away! πŸ˜†

The lip balm looked a bit utilitarian tbh so a bit meh for me, but silver lining is that I will use it as a stocking filler for bil

I also had to open 25 as no one else had an advent with a 25. I was a bit annoyed that I could already guess what it was a few days ago from the writing on the outside of the box which I accidentally saw! But it is a very nice end product in my view.

Today's is the best on the market and took me years to find it. Very pleased.

What a great product to finish with. I’d forgotten this was in there. Clinique high impact mascara costs Β£23 bringing the final total by my reckoning to Β£281.
Thanks for the messages yesterday. I’m glad you enjoyed the cost/value updates. I certainly enjoyed doing them.
Happy Christmas πŸŽ„

Neversaygoodbye · 25/12/2022 08:16

Thanks @notanicepersonapparently for all the pricing updates. Pleased with this mornings and shall pop it in my stash box until needed. Merry Christmas.

MadameSzyszkoBohusz · 25/12/2022 08:31

Merry Christmas all!

I normally only use tubing mascara (I love the Clinique Lash Power one) as I have oily eyelids and anything else just gives me instant panda eyes. Not sure whether to give this try or make it available to swap. What's the staying power like on this obe?

HeySeamus · 25/12/2022 09:27

I find it gives me panda eyes - I only use lash power too (it's the holy grail of mascara imo).
I got excited when I opened the box as I really hoped it might be lash power but do appreciate that it's a great item for a lot of other people.

I had this in the summer, my daughter was given it to try and she passed it on. I used it. Didn’t like it as much as my usual Eeyko one.
