*Now with spoilers* Beauty Advent Calendars: 2019 Edit.

[Ella77]

Today it was a small version of this mask.

This is the kind of thing that I wouldn’t buy but am quite happy to have. I like to wear a moisturising mask when I’m at home and not wearing makeup, and this smells of Parma violets, so... so far, so good.

[Disco]

Lovely!

[Lola]

Yesterday and today’s offerings from M&S...

I like the sound of that mask, Ella and your M&S haul, Lola.

Yesterday and today for me and Edith:

I’m interested in trying the lid lacquer as it’s a gloss so can be sheer or opaque. I might give it a bash over the weekend.

I love the REN overnight balm.

[Ella77]

That lid lacquer looks very interesting.

[Lola]

The Ren balm looks amazing!

[Pippedydeadeye]

I really like Ren stuff, the balm looks lovely.

I’ve got a couple of days to show, I think.

[Luna]

Nice. What is L'Interdit like?

[Pippedydeadeye]

I tried it just before I showered but it didn’t stick in my mind. A bit fruity & pink is all I remember. I’ll report back properly another day.

[ParisGal]

The Elemis looks good.

Tiny L'Occitane standard handcream for us Sparks people.

[Lola]

Where is your calendar from, Pip? I’m a bit disappointed with the M&S one as most of the stuff is the same or very similar to last year :firstworldproblems:

[Pippedydeadeye]

Mine’s the John Lewis one. I think a few of them can be quite samey with the brands they feature.

[Ella77]

I found the Liberty one dreadful for repeats, although it seems to be improving now.

Today I got a small bottle of this Shani Darden serum. I’ve never really heard of it before, but it looks good. It contains a mild retinol, niacinamide, lactic acid, etc.

That looks good, Ella. I’m really impressed with the JL calendar contents, Pip.

A Bobbi Brown smokey eye mascara today. I have mascaras coming out of my ears so not exciting but it looks nice enough.

[Ella77]

That gets good reviews, olive.

[Pippedydeadeye]

I’m hoping to get a mascara still.

[Ella77]

Same, I’ve almost run out!

[Luna]

Bb smokey eye is an absolute fave of mine. I alternate between that and Hourglass Caution.

[Pippedydeadeye]

As if by magic today was a YSL false lash effect mascara!
