You Beauty Discovery Advent Calender Review

So Today I have the very exciting task of unwrapping my Advent Calendar early! Okay, I put it back in un-damaged afterwards but I had to show you what goodies I got before December!

I have been debating which Advent Calendar to get this year for weeks now. Gone are the fun days of Chocolate one’s so what could I indulge in? I had a look at the Benefit Cosmetics Advent Calendar but at £60 for sample size products I certainly was in no rush to purchase that one! I also looked at the Yankee Candle Advent Calendar although cheaper at £24 for 24 sample size Yankee Candles I felt I would be a crazy candle lady by the new year! So, finally after setting my heart on the You Beauty Discovery Advent Calendar which is in the middle ground at £49.95 it certainly isn’t cheap but with a bold statement of over £240 worth of products included . I had to put this to the test!

Wow! I am completely shocked that after finding the exact prices for the sizes included all these luxury products do retail for over £240+! And for only £49 that really is a bargain! In all fairness, I probably won’t use all of these products some will be presents and some will be used for a secret project (all will be revealed!)

So, if you are a beauty lover, want to treat yourself this year or just nag the other half as it’s such a bargain! I highly recommend. At least now you can judge all the products and make a decision instead of buying from one promotional photo like I did. Recognise You Beauty Discovery? We all got a FREE box a few months ago, many of you kept the subscription on you enjoyed it so much! Anyway, I hope this helped and let me know your thoughts in the comments box below!
