Sort of beauty box but The Body Shop have released two advent calendars for 2015. One at £60 and a premier version at £80

Not impressed once again with the YBD advent calendar. They don't change it up enough for me.

The Body Shop ones looks quite good though. Last year I got one from Tesco (their own), a beauty one, and it was really good!

Oh that's tempting, I've read a few good reviews of the mascara.

(very nearly just published this with mascara autocorrected to massacre - yikes!)

I think they had an issue with the Birchbox select your box emails as I've seen alot of people saying that they never received it. I got the email last week (I think) - whenever it was first sent out to subscribers. I am not impressed though as one of the boxes contains 2 items that were in other boxes this year so I don't really get a choice of box if I don't want repeat products (which they claim they never do). The back to basics box, however, didn't excite me (I am not keen to sample toothpaste!!), especially considering the tiny conditioner sample that is supposed to be the beauty bonus, so I opted for the other one. I disliked the 2 repeat products in that one though so will have to pass them on to a friend.

I'm not sure if that's the actual contents for the YBD advent as a friend thought that was last year's box so may be different when it's released...might be worth checking back on Sunday...

Also bought the Tesco box and thought it was really good (even better as it was half price at the time so hope they do a new one this year).

Boots no.7 one will be £38 and looks good if you like their stuff.

Looking for a review of the L'Occitane one though as packaging looks pretty!

Consorted Beauty will release their subscription box on the 1st October. It's £35 which is expensive if they include items similar to their previous boxes (as got enough neutral palettes from Cargo thanks). Also got a perfume white box and several one off "treat boxes" which vary in price. Will give this a miss I think.
