For the past three years, I’ve gotten the GlossyBox Advent Calendar and it has always been so much fun. This year I thought I’d do something new and share with you my TOP TEN faves from it. I’ve had a few months to try out these products, so I definitely know which ones I’ll be restocking when they’re empty.
This is what the Glossybox Advent Calendar looks like when it arrives. It opens up and you have drawers that you pull out with numbered boxes in them for each day of the month in December.
Now, let’s get started on my TOP TEN FAVES!
Shop This Item:
Illamasqua Beyond Liquid Highlighter OMG – This liquid highlighter was new to me, but I fell in love with it instantly and will be replenishing it when I run out. I have been mixing just a dab of it into my foundation and it gives me skin a nice brightening glow. It is lightweight and doesn’t settle into any wrinkles or fine lines you have, so that is a definite bonus!
Shop This Item:
Neom Perfect Night’s Sleep Scented Candle – This candle will set you up for the best sleep of your life, or you can use it during the day to relax. It contains 100% natural fragrances with 10 of the purest possible dreamy essential oils, including English lavender, precious jasmine and sweet basil. Sold at Nordstrom.
Shop This Item:
Makeup Eraser – This makeup eraser is equal to 360 face wipes! All you need is water! It will ‘erase’ all makeup, including waterproof mascara, eyeliner, foundation, lipstick and more. The cloth is made up of millions of tiny hair like fibers that work together to create a ‘suction’ for all dirt, makeup and oil in your pores.
Shop This Item:
Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask – I had just ran out of my watermelon sleep mask from Trader Joe’s, so I was excited to give this a try! This is a very popular/cult item on Sephora, so I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed. It contains watermelon, hyaluronic acid and AHAs that gently exfoliate and refine the look of pores.
Shop This Item:
Glossybox Skincare Hydrating Mist – Every year, the advent calendar contains one of the skincare items from Glossybox. This hydrating mist is light yet powdery. It hydrates and primes your skin for the day.
Shop This Item:
KAB Cosmetics Charming Lip Kit & Lip Oil in Rum Punch – KAB is a new brand to me, but I absolute love it! I received the Charming Lip Kit in the advent calendar and it glides on so smooth and really moisturizes my lips. Then, on Valentine’s Day I had a friend that gifted me the lip oil and it is SUCH a treat on the lips! I’m usually not a big lip gloss or oil person, but these products have blown me away by how great they work!
Shop This Item:
Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Eau de Parfum – I had not heard of this perfume, but when I shared it on my Instagram Stories that I had received it in the advent calendar, everyone was raving about how good it is! It really is a great floral scent for the Spring that lasts a long time on your skin.
Here is a description of the scent from Sephora’s site: This floral perfume for women explodes with an intoxicating whirl of cattleya, jasmine, and rose. The warm scent of patchouli and vanilla grounds the fresh fragrance, adding a sensual twist on the scent reminiscent of a room filled with rose petals.
Shop This Item:
Bellapierre Mini Kabuki Brush – This small yet full brush is great! I use it for my highlighter and setting powder.
Earth Harbor Nebula Adaptogen Clarity Ampoule – Earth Harbor isn’t new to me, so I was excited to receive the Nebula serum. My t-zone is ultra oily and this really helps to keep it under control. This serum is great for skin that has: acne, blemishes, congestion, blackheads, large pores and excess oil.
Shop This Item:
Medik 8 C-Tetra Luxe Serum – This vitamin C serum was one of my absolute favorite items in the advent calendar! It smells like freshly squeezed oranges and it really ‘awakens and rejuvenates’ my skin when I put it on in the morning. They say that we should have a vitamin C serum in our daily skincare regimen and this is a good one! If you look it up online, it has a lot of positive reviews.
I hope you enjoyed seeing some of my faves from the GlossyBox Advent Calendar! It is so fun to try new products and that is why I keep getting the GlossyBox Advent Calendar every year! If you’ve tried any of these, let me know in the comments!
