Not sure what colour I’ve got, but it is the colour I usually get lip liner in.
Learnt about this lip liner trick in Elle possibly pre covid.
It is the best colour to start building your lips up with.
You can just use lip liner and gloss or lip liner and colour, like the 60’s makeup tutorial.
Still really enjoying the Advent Calendar experience, brightening my dull post covid world up no end!!!
(Saving some of my other No7 gifts for christmas day!!!)

It is magnetic as my hairslides have stuck on it?
You could use it as a magnet if you need one?
Just as an idea it would be more useful to have a makeup product with a free magnifying glass as all the labels are printed too small these days.
Heard a beauty blogger say this, so feel confident enough to comment about it.
This colour is sort of terracotta plantpot, where I would prefer a flower colour. A sort of darker colour than terracotta.

It says it is buildable, so maybe you build a flower colour on top of it?
Keeping this, as the more I learn about makeup, might work out how to use it. At least it is matte.
Maybe it suits me as I learn more.
I used to go for the wrong shades of lipstick, as far as I was learning I suit light colours.
(Mind you I never wore red even when I was a goth. Look awful in red, that was when I discovered sleek and realised that worked as goth coloured lipstick).”2″
More like the one below I suppose


I love this colour but I don’t suit it at all.

This is more me if I was to choose a plantpot and flower colour.
These colours are never free products for some reason?
Wonder why?
Found a pre covid colour changer product from The Body Shop pre covid. Even if you lightened the lipstick it doesn’t change the colour.
Maybe I should give it away?

Really pleased with this, will use it with the lip liner.
Can never have enough neutral lip liner and lip gloss, do this look for walking also.
I can go out without makeup, but would rather just wear a bit of makeup.
Will try the gloss with my favourite colour ~ probably pre covid Mac or Loreal pinks.
Conclusion
Really enjoying my Advent Calendar experience.
Suppose I don’t like one lipstick so far, but I could just give it to someone who likes that colour, opening the box was really fun and the reason I purchased the calendar anyway ~ for a bit of fun.
I’m not a mathematician but it seems really good value for money.
No7 is a high end brand in Boots, so you just sort of take it for granted it will be high quality and worth what you are paying for.
I’d guess some of these calendars go down in value after the first, but this one sold out before the 1st of December.
As with all sales I think the best thing to do is get the one or ones you really want full price, in case they sell out, then browse the sales to see if there are any on sale.
I’d possibly by a sale one if it had content I wanted and was great value.
Personally I wanted the Advent Calendar experience and am pleasantly surprised with the standard of gift and the re usable box.
I’m really gratefull to Boots for supplying me my first Advent Calendar and bringing joy to my dull post covid world.
The golden box brings shimmery light to my horrible bedroom that is well due a makeover.
I’m not being gushy just honest.
Will continue this next Saturday.
Hope you are enjoying this.
Hope you got your Advent Calendar, if not check out the sales, there are still some there at full price ~ just realised you can do the 12 days of christmas starting on the 14th December.
Just noticed a few to browse, will let you know if I get them.
Noticed one I’ll leave to see if it goes on sale.
It definately makes you feel like a second childhood ~ loving it!!!!
