Icons for a reason!
The world's best lip pencils in my opinion. A perfect balance between a real pencil with just enough wax in the formula to really keep lip products within the lines but still soft enough to glide on easily and feel creamy. I love them now and have loved them for almost 20 years! I have dozens of these at home and have gone through many. They last extremely long, I still use several pencils with years on the back as they are shades that are no longer made. My absolute favorites and most used shades are (for reference I am light blonde, porcelain skin): Whirl - perfect cool pink/taupe Soar - neutral dirty pink Subculture - light beige/pink Stone - cool brown/beige Plum - cool brown-red/purple Oak - warm light brown (compared to Stripdown) Cork - warm medium brown Chestnut - neutral dark brown Root for me - cool deep dark brown/purple1 product in post Icons for a reason! - The post was made 2 monthsRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
Lovely mix and several favorite brands
Yay, this was really a perfect box for me, the second top loveables I've bought in a short time (Margareta Grääs - Here we glow again). I already have most of K-beauty at home after a bit of overconsumption of hyped skincare, so for me it's so fun to have something other than what's in "all the other" boxes and calendars. MAC's Whirl is a big favorite that I've loved for many years and bought multiple times, so just that made the purchase worth it for me. MAC makes the absolutely best lip pencils on the market, and Whirl is a perfect shade. L'Occitane's hand cream is also a big use here at home, and the shea series is one of their best. LH's glow primer is wonderful, I have it in another shade and have wanted this color. Then the actual makeup bag is wonderful, so perfect and nice with a white one (I have a red one just like it). Looking forward to trying the rest of the contents and maybe discovering new favorites. This is easily a 5/5 loveables in my opinion👌. They've been really sharp lately!!!1 product in post Lovely mix and several favorite brands2400 views - The post was made 2 monthsRating: 5 out of 5
Exciting, varied, and useful content
It doesn't even make sense that Lyko would have claimed that you have "reserved the product for 10 minutes" after getting your spot and putting it in the cart. As ALWAYS when shopping through an online queue system, you get your spot and then have 10 minutes before you get logged out and have to wait for a new queue spot, but of course, you risk selling out if you actually wait all those minutes. The tip is to explore the content and decide BEFORE the release and then go straight to checkout when it's time. That said, I completely understand being disappointed when you can't buy❤️. I myself have missed practically all previous advent calendars etc. that have been released this year, so now I had decided to take time off and be ready to shop quickly. I logged in at 8:58, waited 4 minutes, and got in at 9:02, put it in the cart, clicked through to checkout, completed the purchase, and was done by 9:04 - so at least until then, there were copies left. I didn't find it stressful at all, and I was still relatively "late" as I "only" logged in minutes before the release (I didn't know you could queue before 9, I saw it by chance when I was testing the link to be ready right at 9, and it worked! There have been SIGNIFICANTLY worse releases, like Caia's advent calendar where it sold out in 30 seconds, you didn't even have time to click on the product. It's really NOT an experience for everyone to shop under stress, but blaming it on Lyko I think is unfair when exactly ALL online stores have the same system for popular releases like influencer collaborations, advent calendars, etc. Lyko did this well in my eyes, NO hassle, NO lag, etc. It's not their fault that we are so many who love Maggisen🥰. More Gräähähähähähähähähähähähähähähähäh collaborations THANK YOU Lyko!!! Obviously, there is demand enough to go around and more😃1 product in post Exciting, varied, and useful content177 views- The comment was made 2 monthsBut if you read other people's reviews, there were those who monitored long before that time and didn't get a hold of it. Also, you got a random placement in line. :'-)

What shades are included?
What shades are in the contents? Which lipliners, lipsticks, gloss, eyeshadows, etc.? If there are good shades, it looks like a good buy anyway, quite a few full size for being Mac, and we like that👌. But yes, it all depends on what colors you get, if they work for me personally!1 product in post What shades are included?3454 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko.

Lovely for those who are dry
For me, who probably has the driest skin in Sweden, this is a top product and I use this type of product several times a day. Tried Smuuti for the first time now to find a more affordable alternative to previous favorites (the Jetlag spray from Laneige and Klairs wateroilspray). Smuuti's variant is, in comparison to the mentioned products, not as long-lasting in hydration, but that doesn't mean it's in any way bad! Super lovely mist that smells fresh and feels refreshing. Overall, a delightful mist with a lovely scent, well worth its low price.1 product in post Lovely for those who are dry2365 views - The post was made 3 monthsRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
So good scalp cleansing
Super good for cleansing the scalp. Fragrant and effective cleansing that dissolves product residue and dirt, making the hair super clean. I have tried several different similar products, and this one is by far the most effective. I apply this an hour before washing my hair and rinse it off in the shower. Like a deep cleansing for the scalp. I use a lot of dry shampoo, so a good exfoliator is needed now and then to get the scalp really clean. I will buy again as soon as this one is finished and highly recommend it!1 product in post So good scalp cleansing55 views - The post was made 5 monthsRating: 5 out of 5
Filter in a jar!
A beautiful filter that evens out, blurs, and reveals the skin in a jar, can it be true? Yes, it actually works! I was so skeptical that I put it aside for months, thought I ordered a primer with light coverage but received it completely without color, UNIVERSAL, but when I look at the order it was what I ordered, must have clicked wrong, so not the store's fault! Anyway, I was unsure how to use the product and delayed testing it. So this week I finally got around to trying it! Oh how nice it is! Both on its own and under foundation! The skin becomes smooth and soft, without pores and lines. Perfect base for cream products as well as powder. Also keeps the skin free from oil and sweat all day. Awesome!

The best I've found on the market!
I've fought my way through so many mousses/creams/drops/misters over the years, but now I think I've found the best on the market, for my skin at least🤷🏼♀️? St Tropez watermist is as good as it gets in my opinion, and I just ordered my third bottle this summer, but then I also use it every day AND in generous amounts - AND for both face, chest, arms, and shoulders. Everywhere the skin is visible when I wear a tank top. For my legs, however, I use the same product in the mousse variant, which is intended for the body (St Tropez Watermousse). I love that this smells so good! A slight hint of classic self-tanner scent can come through the next day if you sweat and haven't washed the product off, but it's not so overpowering that it bothers. It doesn't stick and doesn't stain clothes/sheets/towels, etc. I get the best results by; exfoliating my body with an oil-based scrub the day before and washing with shower oil. However, you "should" NOT have body lotion, etc. on your body at all when applying the product, unless it's on places you DON'T want the color to stick (knees, elbows, palms, ankles, etc.). The color sticks best to slightly dry skin and not at all to freshly moisturized skin. If I've moisturized after exfoliating the day before, I shower again. However, afterwards I keep moisturizing all the time to keep the color!1 product in post The best I've found on the market!1489 views - The post was made 5 monthsRating: 4 out of 5
Works as a bronzer in the dark shades
I bought the colors that are left of this foundation just to test if it could be used as a bronzer since they are so incredibly cheap (19 kr!). And yes, they are perfect in shade for bronzing. However, they are a bit too runny in consistency for my taste, but it can be worked out well. Works both over and under foundation.1 product in post Works as a bronzer in the dark shades1514 views - The post was made 5 monthsRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
Awesome as a liquid bronzer
I bought a bottle of this in Cinnamon since it was so incredibly cheap and thought I’d try it as a bronzer. It turned out great! Such a nice result both under and over foundation. It resembles Natasha Denona's new liquid serum bronzer in consistency. (I also bought the colors that are left from Make Up Store's other foundations that are on sale for 19(!) kr, they are perfect in shade for bronzing but a bit too runny for my taste, but you can make it work with them too)1 product in post Awesome as a liquid bronzer1008 views
