Well
into October and officially summer being over, the festive season is quickly
approaching guys.
After
years of being in the habit of leaving my decisions to the last minute and
having to exist vicariously through YouTube videos, I was determined to get an
order in for a beauty advent calendar so I could relive the daily excitement I
experienced as a child (Dispute not being that into chocolate).
If
you follow my social media, the intention to purchase was always there, but I
would struggle to decide what one and then before you knew it they would all
sell out.
So
while it may seem nuts to be researching advent calendars which you can count
down to Christmas 2019 in October, the early bird catches the worm or, the best
beauty advent calendar. Unfortunately in doing my research I have had to
expose myself to spoilers which is a not good, because to me being surprised is
a big part of the fund, however with prices starting from £50 I would like a
good idea of what I am getting, but hopefully everyone will not have the exact
products under the same days.
If
you like me are in the process of researching advent calendars before
committing your hard-earned coins, let me take some of the leg work out of your
research process, so that the only thing left for you to decide is if you will
stick to tradition and open each door daily or binge open all the goodies on
the first day.
