M&S beauty advent calendar opening thread

[TokyoSushi]

Back to M&S after a couple of years off for me this year, I don’t think that we have a thread already?

Usual rules apply, no spoilers before 7am, looking forward to tomorrow! 🎄

I am really chuffed with today’s. My teenage daughter has been wanting this for ages so I’m going to wrap it up and put it in her stocking!

So happy with today’s!

I started using it in the spring and am just about ready for a new one.

Im an absolute convert to this product

I've never used it but am looking forward to trying it, I suspect it'll become a staple.

I did my toes with the nail polish last night, it's a gorgeous colour.

A new product to me too but looks good and I generally like Benefit stuff so excited to try it.

Any tips for applying, I am a novice with make up so scared I’ll make myself look like a clown?

Pleased with today’s, have been wanting to try this product for a while but wasn’t sure. Will be trying on later .

I don’t really wear lip colour but it’s actually nice to be able to try something new without purposefully buying it!

Happy with today's. It's a product I've seen recommended so many times, so looking forward to trying it. I normally wear tinted lip balms because lipstick is too much faff to keep looking tidy all day, so I think this will suit me nicely.

Today's is a blast from the past for me! I used to use it when at uni!

I've tried it now and a little goes a long way. Try a dot on the lips and see if that's enough. Impressed with it as I much prefer a tint to a lipstick

If you’re wanting to use it as a blush, I apply with a sponge. If you’re using it on your lips, just use it as you would any other lip product and put it straight on x

Have put it on lips and cheeks, I really like it. A winner for me.

This is a blast from the past for me too. Really loved using this in my 30s. Will enjoy using it again.

Not sure about in the lips is feeling quite drying.
i used the hair mask last night, can’t say I have noticed much difference in my hair.

I’ve been using this for about 20 years now. I don’t bother with it on my lips, as it doesn’t last; I just put a couple of dots high up on my cheekbones and blend it in.

I’m looking forward to trying the lip tint. I’m reluctant to try it on my cheeks though as I’ve never successfully used any kind of blusher, I just look ridiculous.

This is great! Something I’ve wanted to try but it was about £14?

I think I'll try this on my lips - though wondering if it might be a bit drying? Otherwise will give to my mum to try

I'm very pleased with todays offering, been. Something I've coveted for a long time! Does a little go a long way on the cheeks as I have been accused of blush blindness in the past (thanks daughter.)

Yes it does @50ftQueenieeee, I used 3 small dots along my cheek bone and blended it straight away, gives a nice flushed glow. My favourite item so far.

DD very pleased with today's. I'm happy to share it with her, would have thought it lasts quite well. You don't need much. I prefer it as a blusher. The colour didn't really last on my lips.

It’s a dud from me, didn’t get on with it in the 00’s not going to work for my much older and drier lips/skin now.

Nice little perfume today, good one!

I like the M&S scents - they last no time at all but are cheap enough for that not to matter. Not sure if this one is for me though.

It smells like Daisy. I might wear it in the summer.
