BEAUTY ADVENT CALENDARS I GOT MY HANDS ON

This is my first year taking part in blogmas and I am so excited. I will also be doing vlogmas over on my YouTube Channel here. So welcome to blogmas day one. Last year I had a serious case of FOMO (fear of missing out) seeing everyone opening their Beauty Advent Calendars and this year I was not gonna miss out. I got a little carried away and excited and managed to get my hands on all the ones I wanted. Yay! The first one I picked up was the Space NK one which technically wasn’t for sale. It was a gift with purchase on Space NK when you spent over £250; and boy was that easy. I posted a mini haul on Instagram (@katiedoesbeauty). I am not posting any spoilers which is why they have all been photographed closed but I will say that there is a Sunday Riley Luna Sleeping Oil hiding behind those doors.


The second advent calendar I managed to find was the L’Occitane one online. I love L’Occitane products and am so excited to open the cute little doors. The calendar itself is so cute and festive with its illustrated little shop, I love it. You can see whats included on the back of the calendar but I have avoided it as I don’t want to spoil it for myself. The M&S calendar was one of the last to be released and personally it was the top of my list because last years was incredible and M&S stocks amazing brands. The M&S Advent Calendar is in a cute little red Christmas Tree which looks so cute on my sideboard waiting to be opened.


The last beauty advent calendar I purchased was The Body Shop Green one. There were 3 The Body Shop Beauty Advent Calendars this year and I really really wanted one but at £60 for the cheapest one I just knew I couldn’t indulge on yet another calendar. But!! But, ladies, I was shopping in my local town for Christmas Presents and noticed the advent calendars in The Body Shop were reduced, so for £30 (including £5 voucher off) I got the Green one and couldn’t be happier. I now have a grand total of 4 Beauty Advent Calendars as well as a Lindt chocolate one and a little doggy chocolate one for Bella. If you would like to see the contents of each advent calendar I will be vlogging opening them on my YouTube Channel for vlogmas, you can subscribe here.
