Liberty Advent Calendar 2023 Opening Thread

[Housewife2010]

Reveals from 7 am each morning please.
Not long to go now.....

I love today’s items!

@countdowntonap my hair is the same, I used it last night and it was really good. The smell is amazing.

Happy with the blusher I needed a new one. Second mirror after one in the beauty drop I think I prefer this one nice pattern

@Hadenough2022 agreed! Although I’m just going to have one in my work bag and one in my every day bag.

Today’s is nice! Will regift one of the mirrors as I got the beauty drop one too.

Blusher looks good, but I don't seem to have a mirror. Will get my husband to check the other drawers when he gets home!

Good idea!

I love getting make up in advent calendars, although I know retailers shy away from it because it’s hard to cater for all skin tones.

This blush looks nice and the packaging is really luxurious. Thumbs up!

The blusher’s great, beautifully natural looking. On the other hand, not another bloody twee mirror!

Im disappointed with today's drawer. The mirror is ok but not as pretty as the one in the recent beauty drop, but I never use blusher, so it's another thing for the charity box.

@Growlybear83 Im going to put mine on vinted. I’ll do a Christmas food shop for the local
food bank instead.

Never use blusher.. DDs stocking is going to be phenomenal this year so far bracelet, mascara, blusher and i've got a feeling there will be lipstick at some pointn as well.

Now I want a splash if something fragrant.. tomorrow???

Did everyone get the same shade of blusher? Mine looks quite brown so not sure if it would suit my pasty winter skin. But it's a cream so probably not ideal for summer either? The case is lovely.

It’s beautiful. Use it with a light touch and there’s no brown at all, the colour in the pan is very deceptive.

I got excited seeing 2 items today as it's my birthday but I won't use the blusher as I like my old staple. For the mirror I need magnifying at that size so will gift it on.

Happy birthday @Isabelle70 !

The blush is exactly the right colour for me.

After a bit of googling the blush seems to look wildly different on different skintones from tawny brown to light peach! I don't routinely wear makeup other than lipstick anyway so should probably pass it on in its pristine state.

Happy birthday! I think December birthdays should get a full month to celebrate so you've many chances yet 😁

How do we use it as a lip colour?x

Really like this blusher, I usually use Bobbi brown powder pink and I'm down to the pan so this is a great replacement.

Dab with finger? Lip brush? Either would work.

Everyone should use blusher

Tried the blush today and the texture is really different! I have a few cream blushes (apparently they’re better for ageing skin) and this one has an almost mousse-like texture.

According to the Liberty blurb it is “Infused with a blend of skin-quenching squalane, protective vitamin E and barrier-strengthening ceramides, this two-in-one lip and cheek tint is where skin care meets makeup”.

The compact is refillable too. The shade is definitely more tawny brown/peach compared with the cool pinks and mauves I usually go for, but it’s nice to have something different.

And the compact has a mirror - I hadn’t noticed the protective film!

Just looked at the box and the colour is called daylily

@Jellycats4life Doh I didn’t realised it was a cream blusher it looked like a powder when I looked at it.
