MY OVERALL THOUGHTS
I did enjoy unboxing this calendar, although I did come across a couple of spoilers on social media which was annoying. I know I lot of people unboxed their calendars straight away but I wanted to unbox mine like I would a chocolate calendar (day-by-day). I’m glad there was only one hair product, as you know I don’t do hair products. I’m not overly keen on body care products either, but there weren’t too many and two of them were actually body washes (which I do like). The bulk of the products were skincare related, which I kind of expected because the LF Beauty Boxes are also like this. I didn’t really get any repeated items from LF Beauty Boxes, apart from the Molton Brown body wash, but it is a different scent to the one I received in a LFBB. I’m really glad I got a mini of the Anastasia Beverly Hills Lash Brag Volumising Mascara, as I was looking at purchasing it in the future to test out anyway. I was surprised to see the Natasha Denona Blush Glow Duo, it isn’t the sort of product I would use but it is a great addition. I kind of wish there was a sort of eyeshadow palette (a mini would do) included. I got a 3INA The Cream Eyeshadow, but I never use cream eyeshadows, I prefer powders. I kind of hoped for a Charlotte Tilbury eyeshadow quad, but LookFantastic don’t sell Charlotte Tilbury products.
 
Overall, I am happy that I decided to purchase my first ever beauty advent calendar and I am glad I chose LookFantastic, not just for the discount. The difference between how much I paid versus how much the products are worth is incredible! I would recommend that cosmetic/skincare lovers look at purchasing the 2021 version (Pre-order August/September 2021). I’m not overly certain that I will purchase the 2021 version, but we will see. If I do, I will do the twenty-five day unboxing posts for you again.

Swatches: Maybelline Colour Sensational Stripped Nudes Lipstick in Tantalizing Taupe

Tantalizing Taupe (725) - light, but deep nude beige Quite smooth, slight shine and pretty nude colour, but sadly it doesn’t really suit me. £6.99 - Maybelline.co.uk What do you think of this product? ♥ ♥ ♥

L'ORÉAL Volume Million Lashes So Couture Mascara

I bought this mascara and while ago with the intentions of reviewing it, but I only wear mascara when I wear eyeshadow, which is not very often these days. It has taken me a while to get around to trying out this mascara. The packaging is made of purple and gold plastic and it has a sort of tapered oval shape. The brush is small and made of rubber. It has longer bristles towards the bottom and shorter bristles at the top. The formula is creamy and kind of thick, but it does feel lightweight on your lashes. You get 9.5ml of product in the tube and the shade is Noir/Black. You can buy it for £10.99 from places such as Boots (UK), Superdrug (UK) and Ulta (USA). It is supposed to give your lashes definition and volume without making them clumpy or feeling stiff. The couture brush should coat every lash without clumps and it has small soft bristles, which should reach each lash and evenly spread the mascara. There’s nothing special about the packaging it is just a nice masc...

Haul: Small Unmentioned Purchases

For today’s post I am going to share with you a few products that I have recently purchased and have not mentioned. I actually purchased one of the products last year but I thought I would include it anyway because I have not mentioned it before. The product I bought last year was from Asda and it is the Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 HR Cream/Gel Eyeshadow in Pink Gold . I bought it for £4.99 and I got it because I thought it was limited edition but as it turned out it is actually permanent. It is a gorgeous colour! Now for the products I have bought recently this year. The Urban Decay Oz: The Great and Powerful Theodora Palette  for £35 from BeautyBay.com. I have used this palette a few times and I really like it. From Superdrug I picked up a Maybelline theROCKET Volum’Express Mascara  in the shade Black because I was interested in trying it and I got it for £5.99 because it had a £2 off offer. From Home Bargains I picked up another can of the TRESemmé Extra Hold...
