Fantastic Eyeshadows
Iconic for a reason, simply some of the best eyeshadows on the market. I usually buy MAC's single shadows without packaging and collect them in a MAC palette, but I also have a number of loose eyeshadows in this packaging. So easy to throw in the bag/necessaire. The colors I've used the most over the years are undoubtedly Omega and Wedge, two light brown matte shades. They are similar in color, but the difference is that Omega leans cooler and Wedge warmer on the skin. Depending on the look, I choose one of the two (see attached pictures). Another favorite "one and done" is Naked Lunch, a light pink/beige shade with a satin finish that looks incredibly good on my Nordic light skin. Shroom and Nylon are two more beautiful light shades for those who don't want an advanced look. Satin Taupe is a classic for those who want a slightly darker shade, perfect for a smokey eye look and has a unique neutral/cool undertone in a mauve/taupe shade that looks good on Nordic light skin.

One of my favorites from LH
A palette I didn't immediately fall for, but the more I used it, the more it became one of my favorites and most used! What’s so great about Aim higher are the cool undertones, perfect for me as I have a cool undertone and often find that colors pull too orange/too warm on me. This palette has a neutral color scale that leans towards the cool side. Slab and Dyno are the most used shades I own from LH. So perfect for everyday makeup when you want a discreet look. The palette also contains a couple of lovely shimmer and glitter shades that are also top notch. An underrated palette that is definitely worth a purchase in my opinion.1 product in post One of my favorites from LH76 views - The post was made 4 daysRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
Awesome
I love this! I previously used a similar smaller puff from Real Techniques but wanted one with a bit larger surface to get done faster. This is the only one I've seen, so I tried it and am positively surprised. Soft with perfect resistance and a large surface so you can quickly set foundation in place. It gives basically the same result as with a regular sponge, but it goes faster thanks to the flat (i.e., larger) surface compared to a sponge which is rounded (i.e., touches a much smaller area per dab).1 product in post Awesome39 views - The post was made 4 daysRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
The best eyeshadows LH has released!!!
Divine eyeshadows from LH. They are soft, silky, glide on like a dream. Perfectly pigmented, meaning just enough color but not so much that it becomes hard to just lay a "wash of colour". I have a couple of neutral favorites from LH from before from the palette "Aim higher" (slab and dyno). Compared to these, none of the shades are identical. I have not found any of the new colors in any of LH's palettes, so far as I can see all shades are new releases! The formula in the single shadows is divine, perfection simply. The formula in the palettes is wonderful too, in comparison the singles are even better, a bit creamier, a bit silkier, a bit easier to work with, but that definitely doesn't mean that the formula in the palettes is bad. It is not. On the contrary, LH's eyeshadows are some of the best on the market in my opinion. LH and MAC are my go-to favorites. Compared to MAC's eyeshadows, LH's are even creamier and more pigmented. MAC has a slightly "drier" finish. But both are top-notch and I use both daily. LH has done an amazing job with the undertones in these single shadows, really nice neutral shades that don't pull too warm on me as I have a cool undertone. Attaching pictures with swatches in both cool and warm light. I bought the three lightest shades and they are perfect for a basic and discreet everyday look for a Nordic light skin (will however complement with the other three shades asap). Five out of five stars from me💯1 product in post The best eyeshadows LH has released!!!83 views - The post was made 1 weekRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
Incredibly good for the price
I am deeply impressed! Considering the low price, this is a fantastic dry shampoo. Smells lovely and not TOO much. No residue or visible powder on the scalp the next day. The effect holds up well even the following day. Really good all-round spray at a very good price.1 product in post Incredibly good for the price226 views - The post was made 2 weeksRating: 5 out of 5
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 brands2404 views - The post was made 3 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?3463 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 dry2431 views
