Excited for this year as I didn't get one last year. Shall we say no spoilers before 7am?

I will use today as use cuticle oil every day but a bit meh.

Bitchillywillytoday · 12/12/2024 08:06

I use a face serum for my nails so good to have a specific one just for nails, happy with todays offering.

teacoffeeorpassthegin · 12/12/2024 08:18

I really need to sort my nails so this is good.
I have got the oil but I don't like how it feels so this may be better

Chrysanthemum5 · 12/12/2024 08:52

Very happy with todays I like something for my nails

GettingStuffed · 12/12/2024 09:40

Yesterday's I use on my lower waterline, I'd never thought about it being used on my upper lid. I'm hoping today's helps my nails. They undergo so much damage at wrapping up time

GlomOfNit · 12/12/2024 10:25

I use black or brown eyeliner on my lower lid whenever I put makeup on, because I'm stuck in the 90's :-D but this one seems a bit tricky if it's for upper lid? Also not loving the fact that it's really hard to get off by the sounds of it, so yet another regift (I have a Body Shop eye pencil on the go, how many eyeliners do I need??). Really disappointed by this year's and honestly don't think I'll bother next year.

HebburnPokemon · 12/12/2024 11:25

Today - boring! Worst one yet

raffle · 12/12/2024 12:24

I'm going to use this on my toenails religiously so my little trotters are beautiful come summer pedicure time

LivingDeadGirlUK · 12/12/2024 13:29

I'm happy with todays, my nails are knackered.

My nails could do with some attention too so this nail serum is something I will use.

Angelabdc · 12/12/2024 14:46

I've used MD foot cream before and it's really helped so hopefully this will work on my knackered cuticles.

Hawkerslife · 12/12/2024 15:14

I really liked today's offering. Something different that I'm interested I'm trying. Thank goodness no more bloody shampoo!

Ha! Sorry, that was a day or two ago, wasn't it? Nail and cuticle serum - meh. My hands are knackered because of the work with them I do though, so every little helps...

Bit more of an interesting product today! I use a nail oil but still have problems with my nails splitting and breaking so am pleased to try this.

Interested to hear if anyone else has used the eyeliner thingy and your thoughts on it. I might keep or regift!

GingerPanda · 12/12/2024 19:44

Hi I've not posted on this thread before but I'm loving my advent calendar! The eyeliner is really good, smudges nicely but then stays put and it's not harsh. The nail oil was something I'd never buy but a nice little treat. The shampoo and conditioner are lovely and the face cream really does add a glow (though it hurt like hell when I got it in my eye). The shower gel is fab. Lots of hits here from my point of view!

I've been wearing it on my bottom eyelid for 2 days and very impressed, it stays on.

GreyBlackBay · 12/12/2024 23:08

Oh its a nail oil. I only opened it quickly on the way out and couldn't even read it (getting old).

I'm quite happy with that. I use nail oil religiously for a few weeks every now and again before I forget about it then chuck it out a few months later. Time for another go.

ThePoshUns · 13/12/2024 06:45

A full size product!
I like This Works as a brand and like a body cream. Don't normally use one at night but will give this a go.
Thumbs up from me today.

LivingDeadGirlUK · 13/12/2024 07:20

I will def give this a go my skin gets so dry, I'm just finishing a perfect legs body butter.

I think we had this body cream before and it is lovely. I think I used it as a nighttime hand cream.

Not sure whether to keep or give to DD for Christmas. Depends on whether I get the last minute Christmas Fear or not!

bigTillyMint · 13/12/2024 07:40

Very happy with this - I loved the Deep Sleep Body Cocoon in last years!

Disturbia81 · 13/12/2024 07:47

Happy with this! Smells and feels beautiful and a generous portion. This smell has definitely helped me sleep many times, I have pillow sprays like this

GingerPanda · 13/12/2024 07:50

Oooh this is lovely! What a great smell.

Chrysanthemum5 · 13/12/2024 07:52

DH gets restless legs at night so I will give this to him in the hope that it helps. Great to have a full size product

mrsnjw · 13/12/2024 07:57

Great product. I got the body cream in the ms summer beauty bag and it's lush!
