Yes, that says part 1, and no I don’t know how many parts there will end up being though I’d guesstimate four at the most! XD I had intended to put each day’s advent calendar openings at the end of each blog post, but that just felt a bit monotonous for some reason, so I just though to do a couple of posts throughout Blogmas, devoted specifically to the advent calendar items.
This year I was lucky enough to get SEVEN beauty advent calendars, although some you could be giving me the side eye and judging me silently right now…and that’s ok. I get it; this isn’t everyone’s cup of cocoa. However, if you’re like me, and get googly-eyed over beauty products, then keep on reading!
Out of the seven calendars, two of them are 12-days, and the rest are 24-25 days. With the 12 day calendars, I have decided to open them every other day, to span the whole month, so don’t let my counting system later in the post confuse you too much. ;p
I will directly link products below when possible, but some of them are limited to the calendar release only, and are not available for individual sale.
