I remember watching you when your daughter was about 13-14 and now shes 18! They grow up before you know it. Good advent calendar but not great as previous years. I miss the tote bag they did several years ago. Your whole look is always so beautiful and impeccable. I love your cover-up top over your tank. I have several I put on over my pjs or loungewear. I'm retired and pretty much homebound and they are so comfortable and pretty. Advent season starts earlier and earlier which I don't mind. I'll be re-watching them in December! Take care! 💕💕
I'm in two minds about this one. I think I'm going to keep an eye on it to see if it goes on offer in a month or so. Some handy bits in there that I would definitely use and the other bits I can use for Christmas gifting. Hope the power came back on for you fairly quickly and you weren't in the dark for too long. Also, I don't think you zipped through it too fast either. I like the detail you give - it's short and sweet, but tells me enough about the product to help me decide on whether it's for me or not. 😊
Thanks for unboxing this beauty Advent calendar. It has a lot of great products. My most favorites are M.A.C lipstick, Iconic London Nude lip-gloss, Hair products, Glow Hub serum, Revolution palette and Ren Toner 💖
Thanks for the unboxing. I usually buy this for my daughter and myself every year but I'll give it a miss this year. Like you said there's nothing new, we've tried or already have most of the items.
I’m happy with a lot of the products and did get this one, but yes not much that is new. I do think tiny items like the Sunday Riley should share a door with another product.
Think il proli miss this one Claire. I did notice that not many of these makeup shades the mac lippie the Mitchell blursh, both wouldn't work on any person with a deeper skin tone......bit naff really. They can always put darker shades in, and light skin tones can apply gently, and then would work for darker skin tones. (Suitable for all )❤❤ 😊😊❤❤
Heyy I was hoping to buy this for someone but I was wondering if tou thought the box was heavy or if you think it would fit in a regular size suitcase?xx
Lovely products think its a good calander 😊 Thank you for unboxing. Claire 😊 Lot of calanders we can’t get sadly in Europe due to shipping law and some products inside.( candles, perfumes, reed defusers,roll- on perfumes, anti bacteria soaps etc due to fire risk .😢 I would love the Arran calendar but sadly Not allowed to be shipped due to products inside 😢 .
I couldn’t agree more! I think it’s a lot of money for the items. I used to buy this advent calendar every year because it was so impressive for the money but this one seems really dear for what you get and not very exciting. I won’t be getting it this year xx
Thank you for sharing. I have ordered this previous years but passed this year. The price put me off too sadly.. I’ve only bought Sephora so far… thanks Claire x
Girl your comment made me chuckle! “Only bought Sephora so far” 😂 glad I’m not the only one who buys myself multiple 😂❤ I just got Look Fantastic but waiting for Selfridges too. It was amazing last year.
Advent calendar time of year again! This one sounds fairly good. I’m looking forward to the Holland & Barrett calendar and the M&S unboxings. This ASOS one was pretty good, but I won’t buy it.
Yep sure is and I’m Busy busy busy 😂 I’ve had 3 delivered today… Holland & Barrett, Elemis and Anthropology which I’ll unbox next week aswell as the Glossybox one going up on Wednesday xx
For £5 more you could get Look Fantastic and it is much better but if a subscriber it is under £95. Glossybox is too (£70 for subs) and about the same. This fèels like a £75 calendar
Holland and Barrett is £45, L’Iccitane has one for £68, you can get the Glossybox one for £75 (£10 off) with my code when I post up my video next Wednesday, Prettylittiething is £55 and if you look on the boots website you’ll see many for under £95 too xx
@@Diaryofabeautygeek ordered the family the international degustabox calendar again. It is huge but great fun. Some days could be salt, another day luxury chocolates 😂.
Yep they sure are ! I love it but I think as we saw lots in last years calendars, I think they could have switched it up a bit and went for another scent from the brand maybe?! Xx
Ooh that’s great you had £10 off! There’s some lovely products inside and even better you haven’t tried any. I just felt what we saw is nothing different to usual if that makes sense. Xx
Yes It was £90 last year but I got it for £72 when it was first released due to a discount code they had running but I’m sure it was a little lower previous years?! Xx
Aww... You can't give a hint at a name with a long story and then not tell us! Maybe in an upcoming storytime GRWM video? 😊 I love watching your advent calender unboxings each year, but I don't think this Asos one will be the one for me. I agree with you that they really shouldn't have sample-sizes (It just feels a bit Birchbox-y when they do). xx
Hehe well long story short… I have 3 names before my surname and Claire is my 3rd in line next to my surname. When I went to secondary school the teachers thought my name was Deborah (my 1st name of the 3) and I was too shy to tell them it wasn’t!! I was knows as Debbie, Debs etc all throughout school 😂 my parents found it hilarious when I had friends over!! Xx

Why not just make the calendar smaller rather than put tiny items into big boxes. And talking of small items, there is rather alot of them in here, I'd rather LF as the palette is gorgeous. Xx 😊❤
Yet another Advent calendar that will not ship to the us. At this point I don't know if I'll get any Advent calendars this year only because I usually purchase all of them from the uk. Aside from our local Target that is! But that being said the pickings are slim or as they say here in the states it's very slim pickings for Advent calendars as they are restricted this year a ton of them from shipping to the USA.🥺
Thanks for unboxing :)
This advent calendar feels like all the left over products that haven’t sold this year
You’re welcome ☺️ xx

Ordered this one , I’m most looking forward to the Charlotte tilbury highlighter as I’ve neeeeeever had one of her products before in my life 😅❤
I can believe I was watching you in the pandemic unboxing in November, and now it is starting in August and early September!! Thank you, Claire!! ❤xx
Haha I know!!!! It’s crazy! You’re welcome ❤❤

Your makeup is gorgeous! Those 👀 ❤❤ I get such a headache from that “it works” pillow spray! And it lingers in the bedroom forever!!
Thank you ❤ yes I know what you mean xx
It’s a nice calendar but they seem to be doing a lot of their usual stuff. I’m loving your new background ❤❤❤
Thank you ☺️ it’s easier to prop up my boxes this way xx

I don't like This works pillow spray either. However I adore the Feather and Down one!
Do you know how much it weights? 🙏🏽

You look fabulous btw

Oooh I’ve never splurged out on a Selfridges one. I shall keep my eyes peeled 😎 enjoy your calendars once they arrive 🥰
You’re welcome ☺️ yeah I think it’s priced a bit high this year compared to others unfortunately xx
I really like this one but needs a perfume xx

I just got this one for £66.50 with code FAB :)
No I’m with you it’s pricey and not the best xx ❤
It’s a shame as I love Asos, it’s not a bad calendar at all but could be a little more luxury for the price I think xx
Not for me, bum bum cream is appearing in all the calendars this year 😊
Yep they sure are ! I love it but I think as we saw lots in last years calendars, I think they could have switched it up a bit and went for another scent from the brand maybe?! Xx
Got it for £85 I think it’s worth it for 85 but not 95 and I’ve personally never tried any of the products before
Ooh that’s great you had £10 off! There’s some lovely products inside and even better you haven’t tried any. I just felt what we saw is nothing different to usual if that makes sense. Xx
They've increased their prices quite a lot! I remember they used to be much affordable than this.

Yes!! Birchbox - y comes to mind !! Xx
It’s quite pricey for what it is, I don’t think it’s very exciting.
Liked the film, didn’t liked the calendar much😅 last year was better!
Thank you 😊 I wish I could remember last years!! Xx
Yes I thought it wasn't as good, as past ones I've had before. Still some good bits but meh.

Thanks for sharing. This year's calendar is not tempting for me. Too many minis and a revolution palette.
You’re welcome ❤
A bit strange with 2 hair styling creams in a rough,and 2 cheek products. Hm..
I didn’t notice it had 2 styling creams 😂 😮
not for me
