Marking my place

Caramelandsalt · 01/12/2025 15:13

I posted on the waifs and strays about cushion making and pics of the back , it was at 2.35 , if anyone wants to look

msmillicentcat · 01/12/2025 15:50

Ooh just found this thread - first time I’ve treated myself to a Liberty AC and so excited!! I love the perfume in number 1. Happy to do swaps later on if people aren’t keen and want something else.
Also love the cushion idea and going to give it a go 😊

Tupperwarelid · 01/12/2025 16:12

Had a Liberty AC a few years ago and loved it so very happy to have one again this year. The perfume smells lovely.

HostessTrolley · 01/12/2025 16:44

Absolutely love the perfume - it's probably not one that I would have bought from the description. Thinking of having a trawl in Vinted/ebay to buy a couple more

I'm hoping for liberty vouchers for Christmas from my family as I'm coveting a bottle of peony couture but wouldn't spend that amount of money on perfume for me!

Primrosespaw · 01/12/2025 17:09

Good start. The perfume, along with Vine Thief, is my fav of LBTY. The bag is now a posh laundry bag, which perks up the mundane. For my first beauty AC and a great lover of all things Liberty, a great start.

Wallabyone · 01/12/2025 17:28

Hello!👋
My husband bought me the Liberty AC back in September as part of my birthday gift, and was shocked that I didn’t want to open it all straight away!

My daughter said the fragrance was like aftershave this morning, and I did agree, but it is beautiful once it’s settled.

WestrayWife · 01/12/2025 17:45

Placemarking for another year of daily december fun.
Happy enough with today’s drawer, but not a scent I would rebuy.

TwinklyMoose · 01/12/2025 18:17

I am usually a one perfume person but I sprayed this on this morning and although a bit strong at first has settled nicely. Excited for tomorrow now

AlPaccacino · 01/12/2025 18:26

Very nice perfume. I know we all have the same one but I love doing the photos. Grin

I’ve just opened. Again not something I’d usually buy, but the woodiness is nice for the time of year and it’s a grower

IlovePond · 01/12/2025 21:05

Evening all! I have just sprayed the Liberty perfume and first thoughts are it’s a bit strong for me, but I am hoping it settles.

It’s such a pretty box. I wish the bottle was decorated too.

I had forgotten that I had also popped a small Commodity Juice bottle into the drawer as there was space. Unfortunately, after trying it just now I don’t like it at all 🙀I suppose it might mellow🤞and perhaps I was a bit heavy-handed with it! If not, I will pass it to my friend who likes all perfume regardless of smell.

I love the perfume. I tend to love all of the perfumes in the calendars unfortunately for my bank balance.

EdinaMonsoon · 01/12/2025 22:24

Evening everyone! DH has never bought me any type of AC in all the years we've been together but has surprised me yesterday with this one!

Absolutely love the perfume in today's box and will be wearing it daily throughout December. It smells exactly like the Liberty store IMO - layers of woody notes with rich florals. Lovely. Very excited to see what tomorrow brings.

Love to hear about everyone's daily rituals for December. I struggle with the darker, shorter days and the seemingly incessant rain. so have been making my mornings feel more indulgent with getting up earlier than usual so I can be pottering around in nice pjs, with coffee and a few candles burning. No electric lights on at all. And reading my book rather than picking up my phone. It has made a big difference so far.

OvaHere · 01/12/2025 23:05

I didn't buy this one in the end but I'm place marking for the product reviews and because I'm nosy. 😁
I love all the creative uses for the bag.

Us nosey lurkers very much appreciate a photo! 😂

countdowntonap · 02/12/2025 06:50

Wasn’t initially blown away by day 2… but having read some online reviews I’m now looking forward to trying this product as it sounds ideal for me! Just hope it’s as good as it sounds.

lookonthebrightside0 · 02/12/2025 07:25

Supernova antioxidant cleansing gel today. Not particularly exciting but useful to have.

Today's isn't the most exciting but we are on hols soon so it's perfect and sounds like a really nice product. I quite like the more simple skincare as my skin can be a bit sensitive sometimes.

Same 🤣 nosey lurker here! I also like the photos 🙂

Netaporter · 02/12/2025 07:35

Today’s is good for me. Not used this brand before but I’m away this weekend so it’ll be a useful addition to a 20g Elemis cleansing balm I added to my checkout basket from an online shopping spree yesterday 🥰

Ilikeyoursleeves · 02/12/2025 07:38

Not as lovely packaging like yest but I love trying new cleansers so I’m looking forward to trying this! Handy size for travel too (30ml)

I've never heard of this brand, will give it a go but not overly excited. I think I like perfume because I'm impatient and it gives immediate gratification 😁

It took me a while to find the drawer today and I saw a few other items through the finger pull holes while I was looking!

Caramelandsalt · 02/12/2025 07:49

I do think the numbers are really hard to read . Purple or black would have been better than gold .
I must say JL was a good drawer , 4 items . I loves this advent opening malarkey 🥰

H3lloMums · 02/12/2025 08:03

It is hard to see the gold numbers - suppose that adds to the searching, I quite like its subtlety. But it is possible to see the products, I've already spied a couple - it would be nice if they were a bit better hidden and wrapped in tissue paper as it does feel a bit anticlimactic to see a white tube straight away. Nevertheless I'm looking forward to trying this cleanser, also hope good for sensitive skin and I liked yesterday's perfume. Going to put it on today to give it a proper try.
