When to start christmas advent calendar
BENEFIT ADVENT CALENDAR 2020 / *Is This Really Disappointing?*
oh bloody how it jumped out at me
oh this is a very
very good product and again i can't get
out the bloody door
okay this
may be overkill
[Music]
advent addicts i'm in a bit of shock for
the last two years
benefit have not done and haven't
calendar and as a fellow advent addict
this has been a huge problem it has
surprised me that they haven't had
another calendar for the last
two years but rest assured they have
a 2020 alpha calendar i'm
super excited to see that it's back
however
it is a 12-day advent calendar and it
looks really
small now first bit of feedback i
definitely want to see a bigger and
better
avid calendar from them i think if they
did like a really
big and exciting one then um
it would do so well now the design is
super interesting i have never seen
anything like it before
so you kind of roll it out like a scroll
and voila here's the advent calendar so
this one is going to set you back
58 pounds 50. now if you order from the
benefit
website and pop in the code mascara at
checkouts you can get a free mascara
before we actually get unboxing
i want to see how much each door is
worth
each door is worth around four pounds
eighty-eight i just want you guys to
bear that in mind
now before i get unboxing this advent
calendar don't forget about my giveaways

i guess we should get on to door number
one
first up we have an absolute classic
my goodness it's so hard to get the
doors out
so hula is a matte bronzer powder and
it's a
hero product from benefits the color
is absolutely gorgeous it's like a
golden brown bronzer color what i really
like about this product in particular is
that you can contour with it
or you can pop it on the face so it
looks like you
have a bit of a tan and believe it or
not the sample size the smaller sizes
actually lasts a very long time if
you've ever owned a full-size
hula matte bronzer you know how long it
lasts you
bloody years well minded anyway day
number two
we have a mascara it really would not be
a benefit advent calendar without
mascara
so here we have they're real and this is
a
lengthening mascara by benefits so this
is in the shade
jet black and the wand
yes that looks very very
lengthening indeed my favorite
mascara from benefit to be fair is bad
gal
i love bad girl it's just oh i mean
when you've tried bad girl you just know
you know how good it is
i am however very much looking forward
to using this the one does look very
similar to bad girl to be fair
day number three oh
this is a very very good product as you
guys know
i love getting brow products in the
advent calendars and here
we have just that so here we have
precisely my
brow pencil it looks like an ink thingy
majiggy you know
the pen and the ink so this is in the
shade
color number three now the color it's a
really good
medium ashy brown now if you're worried
about the color
if you have dark brows press darker if
you have lighter brows
press lighter i actually very much
prefer these twisty
up brow pencils i find that precision is
amazing you can really
um sculpt the brow you can either do
like a brushed up look you just kind of
pencil it in nicely or you could do more
of a bold look these are
fabulous door number four i think this
is gonna be highlighter
it's a blusher i was wrong i have
actually
never tried um a blusher from bennett
before
but here we have dandelion blusher by
benefit
so this is a baby pink color let's have
a little look
now the the pigment in it definitely
looks like it's got a
slight bit of shimmer to it this is a
really really
pretty color to be honest if you i don't
think it will give you like a really
intense rosy look on the cheek but just
a
subtle kiss door number five oh
this is perfect for brushed up brows
oh yes talk to me benefit
oh bloody how it jumped out at me right
here we do have the 24-hour brow
setter i don't know if you guys have
noticed but i have been
obsessed with a brushed up brow
mmm bloody love it so this is something
that i'm
definitely going to get good use out of
now the head it looks like a crushed
beetle
or crushed wood lice wood light or
woodlouse this is interesting
it looks more of a comb whereas i'm used
to the bushy heads
but this is very interesting i feel like
you can really get a good
brushed up look using this wand
door number six we are halfway through
poor professional is in here so this
is a hydrating primer so
if you get dry skin in the wintery
months like me
this is gonna be your best friend this
is fabulous to wear underneath makeup or
on its own and what it does it actually
reduces the size of larger pores so that
your makeup can sit
flawless on your skin i'm just going to
check to see if this has any tint to it
it does ever so
slightly now this primer is actually
really thick however hmm
it has settled nicely on the back of my
hand but
it does feel slightly oily ever so
slightly
you can definitely tell it's got
hydration in there door number seven
we have another eyelash curler
eyelash curler another mascara so
hard to get these products out of the
doors you can tell
that they're slightly behind in their
packaging with the advent calendars i
haven't come across one alpha calendar
yet
that still uses plastic so they have
some catching up to do oh my god it
really won't come out
come on it's like giving birth
to a mascara
there we go so this is roller lash now
this
is a curling mascara now how does this
differ from the other
okay so the difference the wand is
slightly
curved i don't think it's overkill
because
we've had two small size mascaras and i
don't know about you but i use mascara
every
single day it is a black mascara and the
packaging
is really nice i like the rose gold door
number eight
we have more things for the pores so
instead of a poor hydrator here we got
a poor primer again this is a product
which will help the
appearance of larger pores um do you
think we needed two primers
i don't think we did door number nine
okay
this may be overkill nevertheless we
have my favorite favorite
favorite mascara of all time which is
bad girl
and again i can't get out the bloody
door like me on a saturday night i'm
always late
oh my god top tip you're gonna have to
open the flap and then
push it forward to be fair i really do
love this mascara it's my favorite
however i'm gonna say it three is
overkill i definitely would have
preferred maybe one
or two mascaras in this advert calendar
they definitely should have put
some other treats in there does anyone
else agree comment below
so just to mention that this mascara
makes your eyelashes look
you've had a perm it's amazing so the
wand
on this one is very similar to the first
mascara one that we've seen however it's
just
incredible your eyelashes will look like
spider legs they'll just
they'll just ping at you i don't know
whether comparing your eyelashes to
spider legs is actually a good thing
you know what i mean they look lovely
and long door number 10
we have gimme brow i really do love brow
products and also
i like the fact that we've got a brow
pencil
the brow gel and now we've got the gimme
brow which is like
brow fibers you can definitely use these
three
at once door number 11 we're almost
there
what i have never tried this before but
this is a tinted primer
for your lashes so this is a mink brown
tinted lash primer and it's called the
real
but it's really is overkill it really is
so i guess you could probably wear this
on its own if you really wanted to
but i probably would pop on a mascara on
top well apparently this is ideal for
adding
definition and increased fullness to
shorter
lashes door number 12 the final door
oh this is a bit of a disappointment i
was really expecting maybe a lipstick in
here but instead we have
a roller liner eyeliner so this
is a true matte liquid eyeliner but
bloody hell
the precise on this is sharp and precise
so this is perfect to maybe do like a
nice festive eye maybe a winged look
it is a good size i reckon this would
last a very long time however
i was really expecting a lip color there
we go guys so that is everything inside
the benefit advent calendar for
2020. now what did i honestly think
we definitely had eyelash mascara
overkill in this advent calendar i 100
would have loved to have seen a lipstick
a lip liner and maybe like some eye
shadow of some sort
nevertheless i really did enjoy the brow
products i really like the free products
that they had
and that i love the blusher i really
like the hula
the primer i reckon we could have got
away with only just one of them
but they just needed that extra
something in there
it's just a bit samey for 12-day advent
calendar
in my opinion i don't really think
you're saving any money on this advent
calendar i think you're kind of paying
for what you
get really um let me know in the
comments what you think about the price
as well it'll be really good to hear
