ASOS Face + Body Advent Calendar - Contents Reveal

The 2019 ASOS Face + Body Advent Calendar is an absolute bargain to be had at just £70 which is a slight increase on the 2018 Calendar, but the contents are still pretty darn good.
ASOS Face + Body Advent Calendar - Contents Reveal

The ASOS Face + Body Advent Calendar has 24 boxes to be opened and inside each one of them is a product from a brand sold via the ASOS website. What I love about this advent calendar is that I had forgotten just how many brands are on the site and we are talking some real high end brands and of course some highstreet ones too.


Again, if you don't want to know what is inside, then look away now, but the calendar is available to be purchased right here.

Beuti Skincare Beauty Sleep Elixir

Before launching Beuti Skincare, Leila an experienced aesthetician found herself constantly on the search for results-driven, healthy and affordable skincare. After personally experiencing a severe allergic reaction after using a luxury eye cream Leila was inspired to take matters into her own hands. In 2015 Beuti emerged onto the scene and made a splash with the introduction of Beauty Sleep Elixir – a natural blend of 14 plant-based oils that reduce inflammation, prevent collagen and elastin breakdown and nourish the skin.
Beauti Skincare Beauty Sleep Elixir
This Beauty Sleep Elixir Facial Oil from Beuti Skincare is fortified with fourteen precious plant oils which includes: 
  • Pomegranate Seed Oil - antioxidant and anti-inflammatory powers.
  • Blueberry Seed Oil - promotes cell and tissue repair.
  • Cranberry Seed Oil - rich in Vitamin A and E.
  • Sweet Cherry Oil - improves skin tone.
  • Seabuckthorn Berry Oil - powerful antioxidant.
  • Red Raspberry Seed Oil - provides skin-renewing Omega 3 and 6.
  • Camellia Oil - super high in Vitamins A, B and E.
  • Chia Seed Oil - prevents breakouts and evens skin tone.
  • Strawberry Seed Oil - repairs the skin barrier.
  • Lavender Essential Oil - calms and soothes.
  • Neroli Essential Oil - skin-regenerating.
  • Sandalwood Essential Oil - astringent properties.
  • Geranium Essential Oil - tightens sagging skin.
  • Caribbean Coral - fights skin ageing and acne.
  • Softalia Nut Oil - reduces the look of fine lines.
The formula provides antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits to prevent irritation, making it an ideal spot or blemish treatment.

I really like the scent of this oil, for me the Lavender oil is the first thing I noticed but there is also a fruity tone to it as well.  It comes with a pipette, so dispensing of the oil is straightforward.  I find that 2-3 drops is more than enough for my skin if I am using it before bedtime as part of my nighttime routine and if I am using it during the day time, which allows for it to be used under your make-up.

As it is an oil, it is oily and the one thing that used to put me off using a facial oil was that I have combination oily skin, I wrongly assumed it would exacerbate the problem.  However, oils such as this one rapidly absorb into the skin, barely leaving a trace that they had ever been there.

Availability

This is a wonderful oil to use if your skin is feeling really dry or chapped, it doesn't irritate, it is easy to apply and I love that you can use it morning and evening should your skin need it.  Priced at £47, you can purchase it from the Beauti site.
