Beauty Advent Calendars are still exciting to me, I love waiting to see who will be the first to release one, which brands appear with their very first one and to add to all the fun, see the look on peoples faces as they start to arrive as the contents are released. One Advent that is always incredible swooned over comes from Charlotte Tilbury and it isn't too hard to see why. This year, for 2018, Charlotte Tilbury’s advent box, aptly named Beauty Universe, is described as being like a miniature version of her personal makeup kit - not just any kit, but the one she uses on celebrities such as Amal Clooney, Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne that we see on social media.

Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Universe is one of the reasons Beauty Advent Calendars still excite me, this calendar has all the glitz and glam for any beauty lover but it is also an incredible gift and I am giving one away to one of you lovely lot. Hidden behind 12 glittery doors, you will find products that are perfect for day-to-day products, as well as some of the most loved, yearned for and wanted and here is what you will find inside.

  • Eyes To Mesmerise - I have been wanting to try these eyeshadows for some time and inside this calendar is champagne-pink Jean which not only pays homage to Marilyn Monroe but is enriched with Vitamin E and has a brightening, illuminating effect on every skin tone or eye colour.
  • Rock 'N' Kohl Liquid Eye Pencil - This pencil is described as having the silky smooth glide of a liquid liner with the soft, sooty, pigment-rich result of a kohl.

  • Charlotte's Magic Cream - One of the more famous products in Charlotte Tilbury's arsenal, this cream is said to instantly rehydrate dull and stressed complextions. It is enriched with nourishing ingredients and also has an SPF15.
  • Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillow Talk - If there is one shade that is forever selling out, it is this one!  Said to enhance the natural hue of lips, making them appear fuller and wider. Enriched with Papaya and Orchid Extracts, this incredibly hydrating formula glides on effortlessly and dries to a soft matte finish. 
  • Full Fat Lashes 5 Star Mascara - Described as being a 5-in-1 multitasking mascara, Full Fat lashes not only curls, separates, boosts volume it also lengthens for maximum drama.

L’Occitane Advent Calendar and Gifts

Not too long along I posted about 32, yes THIRTY TWO beauty advent calendars that you could choose from and apart from some of them being absolutely amazing but a tad 'ouchie' on the bank balance, some of them are more affordable and simply fantastic.

This year L’Occitane not only have some amazing Christmas Gifts for men, women, your home and some amazing stocking fillers, they also have their first-ever advent calendar** and most readers will know that I am a huge fan of the brand and I am yet to try a product and not love it. This advent calendar is filled with 17 beauty products and a further 7 Provençal gift treats including a selection of their best-selling products and if you want to know which ones, then you can ruin your surprise here. It costs just £39 which is an absolute bargain.
L’Occitane Advent Calendar

What I think is fantastic about this calendar is that if you are not too familiar with L'Occitane as a brand, then an advent calendar like this would be a really good introduction, because not only do you get the excitement of opening an advent door everyday for 24 days, but the samples behind each are big enough to give you an insight as to what each product is like and give you the chance to decide whether or not you want to try a full sized version. 

 If like me you already love the brand, then it is the perfect opportunity to stock up on your handbag/desk samples.

Have you stocked up on L'Occitane gifts for Christmas?

Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar - Week 1

This year I managed to get my hands on the Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar, it looked brilliant from the start when I first saw it advertised and hopefully it will live up to expectations.  It cost £50 and was available online and through some Tesco stores, I believe it is still available for half the original price if you still want it.

The Calendar is said to contain everything you need to complete your Christmas party look, with brands such as Nip+Fab, Korres, Katy Perry, Dr. LeWinns, Baylis & Harding and Tanya Burr behind each door, it is bound to be 24 exciting days.

In my introductory post I opened door number one which you can read all about HERE and today I am going to share with you what else I have had in my Calendar this week. Starting with door number two:

Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar - Day 2


Tanya Burr Nail Polish

So inside day 2 we have a Tanya Burr nail polish.  I am yet to encounter any of the Tanya Burr range but I do love the look of this nail polish which is shade Midnight Sparkles and it is described as being "is a sumptuous, purple nail colour infused with glitter, for a truly stunning finish". This Nail polish has an RRP £4.95.

Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar Day 3


Paul Smith Eau de Toilette

For day 3 there is a 5ml perfume sample from Paul Smith and it is the Extreme Eau de Toilette.  Described as being "A sensual yet playful floral fragrance with a blackcurrant and violet infusion and rich woody final notes" it is actually an alright scent, probably not one that I would go out and purchase for myself, but it is nice.


Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar Day 4

Spotlight Lipgloss in Fiesty

Behind door number 4 we have a Spotlight Lipgloss by Sue Moxley and I have shade 'Fiesty' and it an LED light up gloss and it incorporates a mirror on the lid as well.  The shade is a quite bright pink shade which I will show in a later post. 

It's been quite hard to find information on this brand but the lipglosses do have an RRP £6.99 on Amazon.


Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar Day 5

Katy Perry Meow Locket

Meow Locket - Katy Perry

Then behind door number 5 and here it is. A Katy Perry Meow Eau de Parfum locket.  The description is as follows "This solid perfume locket by Katy Perry is the perfect gift idea! The locket is in the shape of a cat's head with diamond effects on the ears and eyes. Twist it open to reveal solid perfume. This locket comes in a black drawstring pouch" I think this is such a fab item, it wasn't at all what I was expecting to find and I did initially think it was another perfume sample, which in a way it is, but it is a solid and in a locket which is super cute. It has an RRP £7.99



Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar - Day 6


Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar - Mini soap

Behind door number 6 we have a mini organic soap which smells absolutely amazing and I am pleased to see it is totally free from detergents, SLS, Alcohol, parabens, silicones, sulphates, preservatives and sorbates! It's from The Little Soap Company.


Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar day 7


Tesco Beauty Advent Calendar - Candy Kitten


Behind door number 7 which I have just opened, we have Candy Kittens Turquoise 20ml EDT which is described as follows: "This fragrance opens with a bright burst of citrus from bergamot and apple, followed by an enchanting heart comprised of earthy cedar wood and tender jasmine. The fragrance dries down slowly to a wonderfully sensual mix of earthy sandalwood and creamy vanilla".  As a fragrance it is quite nice, not one I would choose as I think it is something for  a teen but it is nice.


So there you have my first week of the Tesco Advent Calendar and I am totally chuffed with the contents so far.  What do you think?

The best Beauty Advent Calendars 2014 + A giveaway

I don't know about you but my inbox is fairly quiet on the whole 'Christmas' thing right now, there was a flurry of activity around the beginning of the month and now, well not so much.

One thing I am seeing more and more of however is the launching of Beauty a advent Calendars, remember last there when there was a stampede into Benefit for their calendar, only for them to run out and be found on eBay for almost quadruple the price? Well this year it seems there has been an explosion in Beauty Advent Calendars and having spent a few days reading about them through various means, I thought I would share them with you - one thing to note... Why is there nothing for the men folk?  


Tesco - Costing just £50 instead of the actual retail value of a whopping £125, Tesco have announced they are to launch an advent calendar this year. Contents include Nip + Fab, Korres, Tanya Burr, and Dr Lewinn's plus many more.






The Benefit advent calendar is back and it is packed with mini products from the brand's bestsellers as well as some beauty accessories which look too cute. Priced at £60, it becomes available at benefitcosmetics.co.uk and debenhams.com from 16th October


For £85 you might want to look at the Selfridges Enchanted Spells advent calendar which has a selection of fragrances, makeup and skincare from some amazing beauty brands such as Lancôme, Yves Saint Laurent, Kiehl's and Victor & Rolf to name but a few. To get your hands on it, go to the Selfridges website and sign up for notifications of its release.


The advent calendar that I am excited comes from the Liberty. Designed to look just like the actual London department store, inside each of the drawers you will find the most amazing luxury beauty treats such as NARS, Diptyque, Dermalogica, Kiehls, Eve Lom and Laura Mercier to name just a few! This calendar is Available in store and at liberty.co.uk from November and costs £125
No.7 comes next and again, I am liking the look of this purse friendly advent calendar. The items inside are said to be worth a massive £130, this calendar is packed with skincare and makeup must-haves which is said to include the iconic No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Day Cream. Available at Boots stores and online from 29th October and is priced at £35



Elemis is next. I am a huge Elemis fan and this calendar Priced at £59.50 and is Available now from timetospa.co.uk.  It differs slightly to the other calendars in that it is. 12 days of Christmas calendar which means, you only get 12 doors to open.  That said inside you will find products such as 
  • Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm 20g
  • Pro-Collagen Marine Cream 15ml
  • Pro-Collagen Oxygenating Night Cream 15ml

  • Treat Your Feet Foot Cream 20ml
L'Occtaine is next and again there are not 25 or 24 doors to open but instead there are 13. Why? The holiday tradition in Provence is to have 13 deserts on the festival table, so with that in mind, this calendar has 13 treats waiting for you. From fragrance, body and skincare surprise are behind each door. Available at loccitane.co.uk from 3rd November this calendar is priced at £45



W7 advent Calendar - I have featured this already, but have to include because it is such good value for money costing just £19.99. Behind each of the doors you will find a sample sized treat from the W7 range such as nail polishes, mascara, lipstick and one or two other surprises. Date for release TBC.





At just £49 Ciaté's Mini Mani Manor is exceptionally cute. Behind each door you are likely to find this seasons must haves, some best-selling shades, texture polishes and even festive transfers. Nailed it. Available now at Selfridges, John Lewis, ASOS and www.ciate.co.uk and if you go to your local TK Maxx you can find them for just £19.99!





The latest release to reach my inbox, is the Jo Malone Calendar, just look at how pretty it all is/ Costing an eye-watering £250, it is sure to sell out quickly, so keep your eyes peeled if you want it! This calendar is filled with 24 fragrances and mini body lotions.  
Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without a candle or five would it? Well this years Yankee Candle advent Calendar is one on my short list of calendars I'd like, I mean how cute. Priced at around £23 (prices differ on a few sites) and available now, this 3D shaped calendar is packed full of Yankee a Candles, some of those scents include Candy Cane Lane, Christmas Memories, Christmas Garland, Spiced Orange and Snowflake Cookie to name just a few and....there is an added surprise behind one of the doors, but you will find no spoiler here telling you what it is!

The Body Shop which will retail for £55, with total contents are valued at £80



I am sure over the next free weeks other beauty calendars will be announced... Over the last few years there has been Liz Earle, Boots and even Lancôme and L'Oreal which I've managed to find mentioned online.

With all of that in mind and in celebration of the fact Beautyqueenuk has just hit 500,000 page views, yes that is Half a Million... Woah! I thought it would be a good idea to create my own Beauty Advent Calendar for someone to open...it will be filled with things that I love and use.
