A full sized Skog* of course, and a set of mini Sno, Jul (gingerbread, cloves) and Trae (piney) from Skandinivisk, Diptyque's Feu de Bois, Neom's Christmas Wish (which sort of smells like Lebkuchen) and White Company's Winter.
I'm going to be in Space NK on Tuesday too and will be sniffing the Diptyque Christmas ones and the Jo Loves ones.
* bathroom soap will also be switched to Skog the minute we hit Dec 1.
White Company's Roast Chestnut and Fireside are incredible, too. But Highland Escape is my favourite.

Taking notes.
I lit Skandinivisk's Trae last night. It's a bit....Radox.
Good job I like Radox.

M&S was a travel sized Eyeko Lash Alert mascara with ingredients like caffeine
, which I'm really pleased with.
I was chuffed with this too, mascara always dries out too fast for my liking, so I prefer mini ones. Interested to see whether the caffeine makes a difference too

I got some Sisley stuff today. I didn’t have time to fully inspect this morning.

That looks exciting, Pip!
I’m thrilled with mine today. It’s a facial oil I’ve been wanting to try for a while.

I’ve fancied trying that Edith, so please do report back.
Flipping heck, I just looked up the price of the Sisley things!

They’ll be over £100 each, right?

Yep, the eye cream is £150 for 15ml. Right, I will have to use that on a night I need to wake up like Sleeping Beauty the next day.

Wow! What a treat!
I’m always worried when I try the really expensive stuff in case I love it and it makes me look amazing.

Mine for today was a mini Natasha Denona palette. I’ll need to look at it in daylight

That makes a change from Nars Orgasm, Ella
A fragrance for me and olive today. It’s more floral than I would normally like but it is settling down quite nicely. I will have to give it a few tries to see if I get on with it.

Kleio, if it was Rimmel Heather Shimmer I'll have it ;)
I’m still partial to a Heather Shimmer
I take it back though! In the tube it looked like a dark brown, the sort to be worn with heavy lipliner aka Jodie and Jordan. In reality thought it’s a lovely light natural shade that feels really creamy on.
Everyone else’s look so good! The Sisley stuffs especially.
Today I got an eyebrow pencil and Betty a lipgloss.

It makes a lovely change, Edith!
Mine for today was a smaller version of this Dr Barbara Sturm eye cream. It has never been on my radar, but I’m certainly happy to try it.
