LookFantastic Beauty Advent Calendar 2019 FULL SPOILERS AND CONTENTS

It is Advent Calendar season again - my favourite time of the year, and when you'll see my dour expression replaced by excitement and animation.
Over the coming weekend, I will have full spoilers and contents of more than 40 beauty advent calendars up for you, both here as well as on my YouTube channel. But because this one is always a sell-out, and because it was my own first-ever beauty advent calendar (I haven't missed one in four whole years), I thought I'd tell you about the LookFantastic Beauty Advent Calendar for 2019 rightaway.
Like last year (see here), the price is £79. Like last year, there are 25 products. However, the worth of the contents inside is £420! It was only 300 last year.
Unlike last year, the packaging is a gorgeous navy blue and gold. Stop it and tell us what's inside, you say? Coming right up.

Beauty Expert, LookFantastic Exclusive Beauty Box Collections Feb '19

In February 2019, two exclusive beauty boxes are launching. These are not monthly subscriptions, but one-off seasonal curations that contain only full-sized products, and are worth a lot more than the asking price.
The first is the Beauty Expert Collection - The Vegan Edition, with fully #veganbeauty products.
The second one is LookFantastic's Rose Collection for Valentine's Day, where all products are rose-themed.
The Beauty Expert Vegan Collection costs £80 and is worth £180+, while the LookFantastic Valentine's Day box costs £60 and is worth more than £150. Both ship worldwide.

The biggest sales weekend of the year is here. I have ALL the Black Friday deals and steals, offers, and codes that are available worldwide. This blog and video channel take pride in being as inclusive as possible, so going forward, I will - as far as possible - include offers, products, and so on that ship worldwide.
So, no matter where you are around the globe, rejoice - here are ALL the Black Friday codes, deals, and offers that are available worldwide!
This year, I'm not doing a bazillion different Holiday Gift Guides - instead, I am listing the best bargain beauty gift sets, again, that are available worldwide. I've divided these into multi-brand, skincare, makeup, tools, and bath and body gift sets, and have also included gift sets for men. Let's make beauty 100% inclusive!
By the way, I just found that NuFace gift sets - including the rose gold edition of the device itself - are available for £118, at £40 less, here. You also get a whopping 25% off the LookFantastic Beauty Advent Calendar. More deals are further below. 
Please note that codes MAY change after Black Friday, for Cyber Weekend, as well as on Cyber Monday, so make sure you bookmark this page, as I'll be coming back here and updating the codes as they change over the whole of Cyber Week.
Enough rambling! Let's go jump into all the excitement, for this, right here is your ULTIMATE Black Friday 2018 Shopping Guide!

NOTICE: I had not noticed that this post was accidentally published instead of being saved to drafts on Thursday, while it was being written. Thankfully, none of the codes or offers was leaked, BUT you may have seen badly written notes for products and retailer names, which must have made NO sense. The error is regretted.

Beauty Advent Calendars 2018: Discount Codes And Updates

Very quickly, an update for you about all the beauty advent calendars of 2018, including discount codes.
I've already done a post here about more than 40 different beauty advent calendars available this year, and that post includes all the spoilers.
Here, I'm not going to be giving you spoilers. Instead, you'll find discount codes, along with what is already available now. I'm updating everything in the 40+ calendars post as well, but not everyone goes back to check, so this is all the latest information for you.
At one point, I was very unenthused by some of the advent calendars of this year, but that's gone now, and I'm very excited, particularly by some of these. Also, the discount codes make them all the more attractive - I bought Feelunique's advent calendar at some £39 OFF (including a bunch of Guerlain and Inkey List, but I only paid £119 for the whole lot).
I'm not counting the ones that are sold out already - Fortnum and Mason has come and gone, as did Harrods, but the latter has been brought back owing to major demand.

ALL 40+ Best Beauty Advent Calendars 2018 SPOILERS, Contents + CODES!

You know I'm all excited when Advent Calendar season is here, and all those gorgeous boxes, choc-a-bloc with goodies, start showing up.
This year, I am a bit early with my Advent Calendar posts. First, here is a list of more than 40 beauty advent calendars coming up for Holiday 2018, including release dates, prices, net worth, and spoilers. Then, I will be posting full contents and sale announcements as and when each of these goes live. Finally, I will be posting unboxings once I get my greedy paws on the advent calendars.
Make sure you BOOKMARK this page to stay updated when each calendar goes on sale!
For some of these, I already have spoilers, but I have spoiler warnings in my video, as you will see in a bit, so you won't have to know anything you don't want to scroll down (at the same time you can get to know about all the calendars), and the surprise element will still be there for you, if you so wish.
Before all of that, a quick detour for those who are new to all this - what under the canopy am I talking about?
An Advent Calendar (a calendar that has a countdown during Advent, right up to Christmas, often with a Nativity scene, a poem, or a little surprise, behind each date).
A Beauty Advent Calendar, obviously, is a curation of beauty products arranged behind closed windows, doors, or boxes, in a "calendar" format, as a countdown to Christmas Day.
Here, I'm showing you more than 40 of the best beauty advent calendars to look forward to for Christmas 2018. There are spoilers for some of the beauty advent calendars mentioned here - I have warnings for those!
Before we get going, one more thing - the vast majority of these do ship worldwide. There COULD be some exceptions depending on the brands included, and if there are perfumes or nail polishes or other HAZMAT inside. I will specify if I know about this for sure. Again, individual country exceptions could apply even if I'm told that they ship worldwide.

LookFantastic Beauty Egg Collection Easter 2018 Contents, Spoilers + DISCOUNT CODE

Remember the amazing Beauty Egg Collection from LookFantastic for Easter 2017? I had unboxed it here.
Their 2018 collection is here, and the eggs look fabulous. There are seven beauty products, just like last time, and there's a total worth of more than £200. Like last time, it contains mostly skincare and haircare products.
What is the LookFantastic Beauty Egg Collection? It is an assortment of beauty products that LookFantastic has been releasing for Easter for two years now, packaged in individual eggs, all collected in a beautiful repurposable box.
Like last time, it comes in the same gorgeous hatbox packaging, with a similar colour scheme. This one is HUGE, people - make sure you have enough storage space before you buy.
This one is priced at £65. I have a code for you further below, towards the end of this page, which will bring down the costs even more.

LookFantastic Beauty Box February 2018 Unboxing, Review

As expected, February's LookFantastic Beauty Box has a Valentine's Day design, with a pink-red-gold colour scheme, and a product booklet featuring red hearts. The box is themed Beauty Rendezvous, and contains products that you would need for your "rendezvous". Tryst, if you like!
There are six products in the box, and the Elle UK magazine for the month is also included. They've recently taken to popping the mag inside the box itself, having increased the size of the beauty box. This actually makes the products inside seem smaller!

LookFantastic Beauty Box January 2018 Unboxing, Review, Contents

A New Year means taking stock of everything, beauty box subscriptions included. I've decided to keep just the one subscription box this year, and it is the LookFantastic Beauty Box.
Why? For starters, it's just £12 or so per month, since I'm on a long-term subscription. For another, I don't pay upfront; only each month when the box ships out. For a third, there are some nice perks, such as a discount on the amazing Advent Calendar. Fourthly, on an average, the boxes are quite nice, and come with extras such as the Elle Magazine.
So let's take a look at LookFantastic's first beauty box for 2018. They've revamped the box design - a nice periwinkle blue and mint green combo. The product leaflet has also undergone a makeover.

LookFantastic Beauty Box December 2017 Review, Unboxing

December 2017's LookFantastic Beauty Box is themed Beauty in Wonderland - just like their Advent Calendar for this year. But, unlike the calendar, the packaging of this box is rather plain, and not festive enough for the last box of the year.
Let's see if the contents are better.

LookFantastic Beauty Box November 2017 Review, Contents

LookFantastic's Beauty Box for November 2017 is themed Ready, Set, Glam. The box is a beautiful midnight blue, with stars - very reminiscent of LookFantastic's Beauty in Wonderland Advent Calendar for 2017 (unboxing here).
The box includes the usual Elle UK magazine for the month; this time, there are a couple of perfume samplers along with the magazine.

LookFantastic Advent Calendar 2017 Unboxing, GOOF-UP, Comparisons + Review

The reason my unboxing of the LookFantastic Beauty in Wonderland Advent Calendar for Holiday 2017 is at least three weeks later than expected is that I was hospitalised with an acute anaphylactic reaction - to goodness knows what; we can only do an allergy test after all the medications stop. This was on top of a foot injury. Basically, I woke up one morning with severe urticaria and couldn't move half my joints including my neck, and I ended up being pumped with steroids, which in turn gave me bad acne. I missed my Mum's birthday on October 27, while in hospital. That's what I call bad luck.
But the contents of the LookFantastic Beauty Advent Calendar for 2017 - and the packaging - are absolute, 100% good luck. Apart from one freak goof-up, this calendar is the best I've seen so far this year, as you will see below. I also want to show you the amazing attention to detail they've paid to the packaging.

LookFantastic x Omorovicza LE Beauty Box for Fall 2017 Spoilers, Contents: Ships Worldwide

This is a very exciting beauty box. LookFantastic has collaborated with Hungarian skincare brand Omorovicza to bring out an exclusive, luxurious beauty box this Autumn. The box is worth £209.30, and costs £79. It contains six products, of which three are full-sized.
I'm a huge fan of the Omorovicza Thermal Cleansing Balm - my favourite balm cleanser - and the incredibly luxurious and refreshing Queen of Hungary Mist (they should make this a perfume and sell it. Mmmmmm!), so I'm very excited about this box. The price point of Omorovicza products is the one thing I'm not a fan of, so this box means we can get a few goodies at a bargain price!
ONE item alone in this box costs as much as the box itself. And, extremely limited numbers are available!

Best Beauty Advent Calendars For 2017: Holiday Gift Guide

This year, there are so many new names jumping on the Beauty Advent Calendar bandwagon, right from luxury store Harrods, to drugstore favourite Soap & Glory. Which hopefully means that the brands which previously had Beauty Advent Calendars would have to up the ante and make their calendars better than ever before, right?
LookFantastic has certainly done that this year, as also FeelUnique and ASOS. This ensures that you are coming back for next year's box!
Given that there are now more than 50 different Beauty Advent Calendars out there, I was hard-pressed to narrow it down to 15. So this - calendars which have improved with each year - became a criterion, and I've also included some of the new names, based on the contents.

LookFantastic Beauty Box September 2017 Review, Unboxing

September 2017's LookFantastic Beauty Box is their birthday edit - it's their third anniversary. Birthday boxes always have to be special, and I expected this to be the best of the year from them. Also, next month marks the start of their Christmas countdown, and also the shipping of their Beauty Advent Calendar (see previous LF Advent Calendar reviews here and here). Needless to say, there was a lot of excitement about this box.

LookFantastic Beauty Box August 2017 Review, Unboxing

The theme "Global Glamour" indicates that the August 2017 LookFantastic Beauty Box contains travel essentials that will keep you looking good through your vacation. Being more of a skincare box, I didn't really expect an eyeshadow quad or a mini lipstick, but I knew there would be a good variety of minis I could stash into my suitcase.
The box is mint-green with a world map outlined. It contains the month's Elle UK issue and the in-house magazine.

LookFantastic Beauty Box July 2017 Review

Given that the most exciting item in the LookFantastic Beauty Box for July 2017 arrived all smashed up, I decided not to do a video unboxing. This box contained an excellent curation of products, but was spoilt entirely by the vagaries of the postal system. Ah well, the perils of shipping makeup.
The July 2017 LookFantastic Beauty Box is themed Pretty In Paradise. The box is stunning, and comes with the Elle UK magazine for this month, as well as the in-house booklet.

LookFantastic Beauty Box June 2017 Unboxing

I shot a video of this unboxing over the weekend, only to find that the results were way too dark in this sunless, rainy weather. Turns out it's the Sony Handycam's fault, while my Canon DSLR is a far better choice for videos under poor lighting conditions. Lesson learnt.
LookFantastic's June 2017 beauty box is the Wanderlust edition - obviously containing travel essentials. The box design is one of the prettiest till date. Size has gone up as well, and now the box itself accommodates the Elle UK magazine for the month.
