We may currently be sweating through September\u2019s Indian summer, but I\u2019ve just had a blatant reminder that Christmas is not far away \u2013 I\u2019ve received my first beauty advent calendar.<\/p>\n

It may seem crazy to be thinking about December at the moment, but beauty advent calendars are big business, and brands launch theirs earlier and earlier every year. But with so many on the market nowadays, it can be hard to know which one to buy.<\/p>\n

When I first read about LookFantastic\u2019s advent calendar this year,I immediately liked the sound of it. It\u2019s a beauty retailer I shop from regularly, the brand names inside were really good, and the money saving is super impressive \u2013 it costs \u00a399 but the products inside are worth \u00a3565.<\/p>\n

So when I was lucky enough to get my hands on it ahead of sale, I knew I wouldn\u2019t be able to wait until 1 December to take a peek inside.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

First up, I really like LookFantastic\u2019s packaging this year. It\u2019s a very chic purple box that opens up at the front and back to reveal 25 drawers. Both sides have flaps that hide the contents, tied up with sparkly bronze ribbons (one of which my kittens immediately ripped off \u2013 sorry, LookFantastic\u2026). It looks luxe and it\u2019s genuinely exciting to open, and can be closed up each day to save space.<\/p>\n

I won\u2019t spoil it for those who want to keep the contents a surprise \u2013 if you want a full list of what\u2019s inside, keep scrolling down \u2013 but I was really impressed. You get 27 products in total (a couple of drawers contain more than one item), and 12 of them are full size.<\/p>\n

My personal highlights are the Medik8 cleanser and vitamin C serum \u2013 two products I\u2019ve already tried and love from this top skincare brand \u2013 and the full size MAC MACStack mascara, which beauty editors went wild for when it launched last year.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As a massive candle fan, I was also excited by the Aery Living Winter Thyme scented candle, which I could smell before I even opened the drawer, and the NARS Orgasm blusher, a cult classic that, even though it's a mini size, will last for ages.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tempted? Here are all the details you need to know\u2026<\/p>\n

What is the price of the LookFantastic 2023 advent calendar?<\/h2>\n

This year\u2019s calendar costs \u00a399, but those who subscribe to LookFantastic\u2019s monthly beauty box subscription service The Box get an extra \u00a315 off \u2013 so it\u2019ll cost just \u00a384.<\/p>\n

The contents inside, however, are worth over \u00a3565 \u2013 that\u2019s a saving of over \u00a3466!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
