Liberty Beauty Advent Calendar Opening Thread Part Two

[IlovePond]

Hi,

Welcome to Part Two, (or Day 18 onwards…)

If you have the Liberty Beauty Advent Calendar or are just interested in what’s inside, then please feel free to join in by posting your thoughts on each day’s contents.

If you have swapped out any doors, you can either skip a day here or just tell us what you have swapped in and why!

As is ‘usual’ on these threads, please try to avoid revealing each day’s contents before 7am UK time.

Luckily for me, mine was fine!

The only things missing for me are an eye cream and face mask.

This is very nice indeed. Happy today.

I found the list of contents in a pile of stuff yesterday and couldn’t resist reading through it so kinda knew we’d get perfume today, but luckily I like it (I was NOT a fan of the same brand one we got last year so I’ve had to overcome negative vibes of the same bottle shape but all is good!

My sieve-like memory has already forgotten what tomorrows is, but v excited about the Christmas Day one - the way it should be!

I’m loving this perfume. I’ve had a few Vilhelm samples in the past and this is the first one I have liked tbh.

LOL mine only does when I tell him his hair looks like a toilet brush ;) Used to be Brilcream or whatever it is, horrible greasy stuff so had to wean him off that

But only two days to go: I hope its not a candle just because I would love another 2 skincares

I've done a ml for ml calculation and get value to £719.75 excluding the bag. Need two amazing drawers to get anywhere near the advertised value...
Do you think anyone from Liberty customer services is following this?

Think is with the eye masks they obviously discontinued the 4 pack as you can buy them heavily discounted, that said I do really like the product

Morning! Ooo I love this perfume! Lovely packaging and I can see myself wearing this a lot. If anyone wants to swap this one for the Granado let me know!

I'm happy with another perfume as I knew how many we would be getting which is why I chose the Liberty AC. Can’t believe we only have two drawers left!

Sat here trying to decide if I like this perfume or not. I’m not getting any champagne notes, only pear & what I can only describe as Fairy Liquid/cheap bubble bath 🤦🏼‍♀️ It’s fascinating how our reaction to scent is so individual.

For anyone who likes the La Mer lip balm from yesterday but isn't keen on pots they did bring out some stick versions this year. Not sure how similar the formula is or if anyone is up for spending £65 on one but the packaging is lovely. There's 3 colours and a clear one.

Looking forward to trying the perfume - I'm a bit obsessed with peony couture which I might save my bd credit up for next year as it's out of my price range.

I can't see how they are going to get anywhere near the advertised value with two drawers to go tbh....

I can't remember if I've tried Sparkling Jo from Vilhelm but I love Faces of Francis. I bought 20ml of it this year on a birthday trip to Liberty. I love the style of the bottles.

I love Peony Couture, I’m hoarding the additional bottles I bought on eBay for high days and holidays.

Yes smells like Mr Matey on me too!

Hi, I might be up for a swap for the granado from this calendar!

I also passed this on when I first bought the calendar, smells awful on me. Kind of like alcoholic washing up liquid.

Me too! I really like this perfume. I can’t remember how many perfumes there are in the calendar but I’m hoping there might be one ore left for xmas day.

I’m still getting eau de lager 😹

I actually said that to the woman on the Vilhelm counter in Liberty and she said you were supposed to be able to really smell the alcohol…

Job done!

eau do lager here too 😂 it’s so funny how personal scent is, I’m gutted as the bottle is beautiful.

I’m open to swaps if anyone is looking for another bottle before I pop it on vinted? I’d prefer not to swap for a perfume as I’ve a good little stash now 😊

So glad it’s not just me @PuzzlingRecluse 😹

I love today's perfume! I can picture myself wearing this to the ballet since its sophisticated but fresh and wouldn't overpower in a crowded theatre. I'm not actually going to the ballet (and never been lol) but those are the thoughts I had, with me holding those little binoculars with fancy gloves up my arms 😁

I've enjoyed the calendar due to the perfumes plus my two special items of Sisley toner and yesterday's Creme de la Mer lip balm. I was excited for these and they have not disappointed.

Everything else has been a surprise since I forgot about them. The MZ cream, Mirror Water body oil (which I've finished) and eye patches are my faves. Getting the Emma Lewisham Serum encouraged me to use the Vitamin C from the range that I already had and I'm loving that too as a bonus.

A few DODs but I expect that and will just give them a go or gift them. If the TM lipstick had been boxed I would definitely have given it away. But I tried it (based on comments here that its sheer) and I'm actually enjoying it.

Trinny is my biggest DOD but its a big hit on this thread so proves they can't please everyone 😉

@TreesinthePark how have you finished the Mirror Water already?! Have you been putting it in a bath or lathering it all over every inch of your body every day?!! 🤣

It’s weird as I am actually trying to find lager and fairy liquid in today’s perfume and I just can’t! It smells lovely to me ☺️🍺
