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! 🎄

Again a bit meh today as already have a gua sha, will regift it.

Oh brill, I want one of them! I've got a few days to open as not been at home.

evilharpy · 21/12/2025 08:20

I already have a rose quartz one of these that I have never used, I'm just not sure what I'm meant to be doing with it.

Unicornsandprincesses · 21/12/2025 08:25

I’ve never even heard of this before, so I had to Google it.

well… I can’t put it down. I haven’t stopped massaging my face all morning cus it feels so nice. I have a lot of tension and I’ve never lymphatically drained anything, so my face is loving this 🤣 I saw Kendall Jenner keep hers in a cup of ice water, which I thought was a good idea to keep it cold.

Hapagirl48 · 21/12/2025 08:56

I also have no idea what this is so will Google! It’ll be fun to try.

Snackpocket · 21/12/2025 09:30

I was a bit disappointed with this but I’ve never used one so will give it a go!

teacoffeeorpassthegin · 21/12/2025 09:41

I’m pleased with this as I wanted one!!

PhilosophicalCheeseSandwich · 21/12/2025 09:42

I've never heard of these, so I'm going to have to do some research into how to use it. I've promised myself I'll take more care with my skin, so this has got to be a good thing to encourage me. I've been rubbing over my temples this morning because I've had a bit of a headache, and it does feel very soothing.

catsnore · 21/12/2025 09:44

I may be missing the point but I tried massaging my face with the lump of metal and it just felt like I was putting a random lump of metal on my face 😂

please someone enlighten me!

It does actually feel quite nice!

I’ve heard of the process but no idea how to do it, and would never have bought this. But maybe should try it? Off to google.

Nocheezesforusmeeses · 21/12/2025 13:53

Absolutely over the moon with this. I was planning on buying one

hollyblueivy · 21/12/2025 14:42

I’m tempted to open the last few days today.

LivingDeadGirlUK · 21/12/2025 15:30

Some kind of weapon... :p

sciaticafanatica · 21/12/2025 16:30

I’m up yo 24 😳

TokyoSushi · 21/12/2025 19:15

I’ve just looked at the picture of the advent calendar and I quite like all 4 of the items yet to come!

ThePoshUns · 22/12/2025 07:57

Today’s isn’t something that I’d buy but will give it a try.

evilharpy · 22/12/2025 07:59

I didn't even know that today's was a thing! Will definitely use it, I wonder if it would do my flat wrinkly arse any good.

MadameSzyszkoBohusz · 22/12/2025 08:25

This is more like it! Something properly luxurious. Good sized tube, too.

Are you getting your decolletage mixed up with your derrière? 😃

I mean both are looking a bit past their best these days!

Nocheezesforusmeeses · 22/12/2025 11:21

Instead it and used it on my face this morning. It’s very nice cream. Very pleased.

Snackpocket · 22/12/2025 11:30

Today's isn't something I would usually use, but I'll add it into my nightly routine and try it out!

evilharpy · 23/12/2025 07:29

Today's is another one I haven't tried before but am immediately wondering why not as it's lovely. The weather is playing havoc with my daughter's skin so she will like this too.
