The Glossybox Advent Calendar is back! Last year it sold out that so quickly, that it even trended on Google!
And whilst I didn’t think the 2019 Glossybox Advent Calendar could be beaten… This year’s Advent Calendar is even more incredible!
Like last year, they have chosen a ‘wardrobe’ style door opening for the front, but instead of 25 boxes inside, we are greeted with 4 huge drawers… each containing the smaller individual boxes.
The whole calendar feels and looks SO luxurious! It’s definitely one you can reuse after Christmas as beauty storage!
The colour scheme is gorgeous – the marble, pink and rose gold tones are my absolute favourite! And the contents are just perfect. Glossybox name dropped a few brands before the Calendar launched… but there are so many more incredible brands inside!
The contents of the Glossybox Advent calendar are worth over £390 and subscribers can purchase it for only £80! Non-subscribers pay a slightly higher price at £99, but it’s still a huge saving!
If you want to subscribe to Glossybox to order the calendar for only £80, use code KTFXO at checkout and get your first box for only £11.50 including postage.
The calendar has already gone on sale for subscribers and goes on sale for non-subscribers on 30th September at 12pm.
So let’s take a sneak peek inside the Glossybox Advent Calendar 2020!
1. BRUSHWORKS – HD COMPLEXION & CONTOURING SPONGE SET
Worth £11.99
Glossybox have set the bar high with the very first product! This HD Complexion and Contouring Sponge Set from Brushworks contains three makeup sponges, perfect for applying your foundation, contour and concealer flawlessly.
Usually in advent calendars we might see A beauty blender… but never three in one door! Incredible!
The two larger sponges are perfect for the cheeks and forehead, with the smaller sponge more suited to applying makeup around the nose and eye area.
2. ILLAMASQUA – LIQUID EYELINER
Worth £21.00
And the bar continues to rise…
On day 2 we have a liquid eyeliner from Illamasqua! Another incredible brand and it’s only the second day!
This eyeliner is a felt tip style which allows you to get a precise flick and perfectly line your upper lash line. It’s jet black and has a smudge-proof formula. It dries semi-matte and is said to last all day long.
3. FILORGA – NCEF-REVERSE SUPREME MULTI-CORRECTION CREAM
Worth £10.78
Filorga is one of my favourite skincare brands, but this is a product I haven’t yet tried from them.
The NCEF-Reverse Supreme Multi Correction Cream is formulated with a unique complex of 50 revitalising ingredients including hyaluronic acid, collagen and vitamins A, H and E. It works to smooth wrinkles, reduce the appearance of sagging skin and even out the skin’s complexion.
This sounds incredible!
4. PIXI – GLOW MIST
Worth £16.00
The perfect multi use mist from Pixi. This can be used as a setting spray or as a spray anywhere on the body to add a little glow. It contains aloe vera, fruit extracts, propolis and argan oil so it hydrates and nourishes the skin.
It’s super lightweight so also works as a primer before applying makeup!
5. LIME CRIME – MINI VELVETINES LIQUID LIPSTICK
Worth £10.00
Does this shade not just scream Christmas?! I’m so glad this gorgeous red shade has been included for the festive season! The Mini Velvetines Liquid Lipstick is highly pigmented and is infused with French vanilla – sounds fancy!
It’s silky smooth to apply to the skin and leaves a long lasting colour which stays put without drying out your lips.
6. LEE STAFFORD – HAIR APOLOGY 10-IN-1 TREATMENT SPRAY
Worth £11.99
This full sized product from Lee Stafford is the perfect product to get your hair in tip-top condition before Christmas! The 10-in-1 Treatment Spray is packed with repairing ingredients and works to repair and reduce damage whilst preventing future breakage to the hair by hydrating it.
Use it just like a heat protector spray, apply to damp hair before drying.
7. GLOSSYBOX SKINCARE – 3-IN-1 MOISTURISER
Worth £18.00
A product from none other then Glossybox Skincare!! This 3-in-1 moisturiser is one of the latest launches from Glossybox as part of their brand new skincare line.

Your pre-Christmas pamper bubble bath is going to be incredible with this winter berries scented bath bomb! It smells unreal!
Drop the bath bomb into warm water and watch as it fizzes and turns your bathwater into a dreamy berry scented heaven.
9. MUA COSMETICS – EYEBROW PENCIL
Worth £1.50
Next is an essential in a makeup bag – an eyebrow pencil. This is in a shade that will be suitable for most people – to achieve a light finish, apply the pencil lightly to the brows, but if you want a darker brow, apply more pressure to the pencil.
The product is super buildable and easy to achieve precision with the addition of a pencil sharpener. The other end of the pencil is a spoolie, perfect for buffing out the start of the brows for a more natural finish.
10. ZOEVA – SCREEN QUEEN HIGHLIGHTING PALETTE
Worth £15.00
The most beautiful highlighting palette from Zoeva is in box number 10. The palette gives us not one highlight, but three beautiful shades! A gold shade, pinky shade and bronze.
You have the choice of which shade to apply depending on the look you’re going for… or if you’re feeling creative you can take your brush across all three for the ultimate glow.
11. FRANK BODY – ORIGINAL COFFEE SCRUB
Worth £1.40
A coffee scrub is a great way to refresh the skin, exfoliate it and remove any dead skin cells or left over fake tan that just won’t leave you. This little pouch of coffee scrub from Frank Body is natural and vegan.
It contains vitamin E and antioxidant rich oils to keep your skin hydrated and moisturised whilst also removing those dead skin cells. It’s also great for scars, cellulite and stretch marks… and of course, it smells delicious!
12. GLOW RECIPE – WATERMELON GLOW SLEEPING MASK
