Happy December! We’re already one week into December and that means one week into our advent calendars!
As usual we have several (dairy free) chocolate ones and I also have a beauty calendar with a difference. Whilst I usually buy the Look Fantastic or Body Shop calendar, I wasn’t a fan of any this year, so my partner kindly decided he would make me one!
Using an old Look Fantastic calendar I had (and where I store some extra makeup), he decided to buy a gift for every other day, wrap it and place it inside the calendar! So here’s a look at what I’ve got so far.
Day 1- L’Occitane Mandarin Verbena Shower Foam
Day one started off with a bang! I do love L’Occitane as it’s a luxury brand and all of their products feel like a treat.
This smells great and feels rich, foamy and luxurious.
Day 3- Flower Beauty Petal Pout Lip Mask in Pucker
Flower Beauty is a beauty brand that I recently discovered and have been loving, so I was pleased to see this in my calendar!
I adore the packaging and how it’s a smooth and hydrating lip mask, but it comes in different shades so you can wear it as a gloss/lip mask all-in-one. I’ve since ordered a few different shades of this!
Day 4- Christmas Face Mask, Shower Gel & Lip Balm
As I was feeling a bit under the weather, my partner added some last minute treats into day four. All of these bits are so cute and festive, I particularly love the little penguin lip balm.
Day 5- Minnie Mouse Socks
On day five I received a pack of Minnie Mouse socks and whilst I feel I’ve already overused the words cute and adorable in this post, they’re just both. I love getting new cosy socks or pyjamas.
Day 7- Phone Case
And finally, today I got a new phone case. I have to admit, I often buy makeup and bits I don’t need but never think of replacing things that look tatty and worn out. This phone case is a really pretty pink.
And finally, late November was my 5 year blogiversary! So thank you for 5 years of love, support and comments xx
Happy 5 years of blogging! Isn’t it crazy where the time goes?! The advent calendar Mark made you is super cute 😍
