I love your laugh... makes me smile. Thank you 😊

[@stace8614]

I bloody love your videos... *sprays setting spray on hand* "well... it looks a bit wet, but it does look really lovely when it dries down". There's zero false pushy-selling going on in your videos. Just sweet-natured honesty while always trying to find something positive to say. Even if it's not necessarily your cup of tea, you're still very kind to the brands, whereas other YTers are very quick to cut down a brand or product and go for the shock-value drama. I'm too old for that tosh! haha Great video - informative content. I've still got my heart set on the SpaceNK one this year.

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

Haha aw thank you lovely 🥰 SpaceNK video coming in a few hours … I’m just about to film it now! Xx

[@tonisteiner5224]

Massively treated myself to the Harrods Advent Calender.....now I will be able to look at another......its soooooooo good xx

[@teresahensel3896]

Hello from Ontario Canada. It’s 38* here with the humidity 🥵

[@fionacheek3020]

Oh it's so pretty, will definitely buy again this year.

[@Numptyheid1]

Love the look of the products themselves but they’re SO small 😮

[@kimdickinson3063]

I saw a list of this but I think as you say, there are alot of small sizes, think I'm going for the Harvey Nichols one, it is 250 but there are so many really good names and sizes and when you think I wont need to buy anything till about April so I will realy save money to in the long run. Xx nice unboxing though and now you have the room spray to match your wash scent, so all your bedding can smell amazing. Xx 😚 🤗 🥰

[@chantalwoolf8797]

Might get this if it goes on sale

[@Sabrinajaine]

A 15ml cleanser that will last you about two washes, and a 5ml serum sample size you can get for free from a counter...they are spoiling us 🙄😂

[@stace8614]

I was just thinking the same. I've been to a counter before and the lady gave me about 6 of those little samples in one go. Pretty nice serum mind (the Lancome one), but a teeny free sample would be kinda disappointing to open in an advent calendar.

[@nicolad79]

I ordered this one , has things in i use daily or nice treats.😊

[@Z.Khan123]

Great unboxing Claire! I'm not too sure about this calendar, I'll have to think about it. Last year I went a bit mad and got loads of calendars, I've still got unopened stuff left over from them! This year I promised to be more selective and not spend as much! The farm smelling perfume was the Floral Street Arizona Bloom. I remember it cause I got the box after watching your video, and each time I put it on I'd think farm. Lol. I quite like Arizona Bloom, like you I'm not good at describing scents but I don't think it smells like farm! 😂❤

[@northernbeautygal]

Oh wow! I like a lot of those brands and products. But there is too many deluxe sample sizes for the price you paid for it. There definitely should have been more full size products and you didn’t even get the conditioner to go with the shampoo 😂! I would love to try the iconic London shimmer spray. It’s always been on my radar but I forget to pick it up when I place an order. Thanks for showing us this lovely advent calendar ♥️

[@perspectivamoderna]

It should genuinely be prohibited to sell samples. They are worth literal pennies. A tiny plastic tube with 3ml of cream? Nah. I guess companies will learn their lesson when they have a bunch of advent calendars left over and they lose money on the packaging (because I'm sure they'll be repurposing the samples haha). This should be 60% off in January, it might be worth it then.

[@victoriawaite2814]

I know it's not fancy, but would you do the nivea advent calendar?

[@Theresebonath6077]

The best Nivea calender is the one from Germany i buy that one on Zalando from Sweden every year because every country have different products and Swedens are so bad

[@victoriawaite2814]

Do they ship to the UK aswell? X

[@Theresebonath6077]

@@victoriawaite2814 Im not sure but send them a question to see i mean they are a German company and its not longer to Uk then to Sweden

[@victoriawaite2814]

Thanks lovely, I'll check them out

[@chloeelizabeth2174]

Claire - Microdermabrasion is amazing for acne scars. after a one session it really made a difference. Sadly can’t afford them anymore since changing jobs xD

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

Thank you lovely I have looked into it and it’s definitely something I want to do but I’d need to do a set of 5/6 etc so I need to know if I can afford the commitment but I will do it one day definitely xx

[@MsGlamazon]

Fab stuff. Claire your hair is gorgeous just wondering what color you used ❤❤❤❤

[@chloeelizabeth2174]

I have that setting spray - I don’t use it as hate glitter but it’s so nice to shake 🤣

[@Jakki61]

I have gone off the idea of buying a advent calendar. Pay a lot for hardly any products.

[@Angie-c8c]

Very disappointing 😞 tiny sizes, I will definitely be missing this one. Thank you Claire for doing this unboxing 🙌🙌

[@LUNAJH559]

I usually get this one but the price increase is a joke. It increased in price last year and I still thought it was worth it...just. But nearly 100 pounds for a load of minis? It's a no from me!

[@laurartq]

A lot you said?? I could count 2 full sizes.…. It is a big no-no😅

[@Theresebonath6077]

Do you keep everything yourself because you open everything ? I know many that give them to clinics for women having it hard

[@nitalou]

I’m so glad that someone else doesn’t rate that Phillip Kingsley stuff 😂🎉

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

Haha oh well I’m glad I’m not the only one too! Xx

[@SouthamptonSuzi]

I find the Philip Kingsley makes my hair frizzy!

[@chloeelizabeth2174]

I find it lazy companies never put shampoo and conditioner in the same doors.

[@aniqarizwan5806]

Hi, All through the video i kept staring at your lips . Gorgeous lip colour you are Wearing . May i ask which one is it please ? 😍

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

It’s Nars Powermatte Lip Pigment in Bad Guy 😊 xx

[@susannegyllengard9250]

Nice video

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

Thank you 😊

[@lindajenkins1394]

Will you be showing Sephora?

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

Yes they are sending it out to me soon xx

[@annakonda2664]

If you want to see a super talented, knowledgeable makeup artist go to Margareta Grääs. Now she opens over 120 advent calendars and it's super interesting.

[@sorellefraser888]

Alot of the calenders have been disappointing so many sample travel deluxe sizes and same old same old in them 😮 I got Harrods fragrance this year and fortum and mason for my mum and arran one for me that's all I'm getting this year as still have so many unopened products from 2021 and 2022 calendars

[@LynnTrotter-v1v]

How much !!!!

[@joelgarf]

Lots of things that will sit in my cupboard. I want to see a nice NARS or MAC mini lipstick or a full size luxury hair mask. Day 25 I definitely wouldn’t use.

[@shoppaholic90meah91]

Holy moly how disappointing was day number 13😂

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

Haha I can’t remember what day number 13 is now! 😫😬😂

[@emmafrancesca1532]

This made me giggle, thought it was only me who called them my 11s 😂😂

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

Haha 😂 yeah

[@BeePoohBear]

Not for me. Too many products I wouldn’t use for example the body creams. I don’t like the fact there isn’t many full size products and that tiny product is not great.

[@sarahpie3147]

I didn’t buy this, from the comments looked like a lot of travel/sample size which I did look properly, it was enough for me not to buy it tho great unboxing Looking lovely Clare, those jewelleries are fab x

[@cathfoley9240]

Am I right In thinking this was about £65 last year 😮

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

It was £85 then went on sale to £70 and I believe went down to £59 nearer Xmas?! Xx

[@cathfoley9240]

@@Diaryofabeautygeek maybe that’s what I am thinking of. I mean I do like the next boxes but I find the calendar has a lot of the stuff they put in their beauty boxes. That being said, the packaging is probably the nicest I have seen so far this year !

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

@@cathfoley9240 yes there’s lots of products inside that we’ve seen in beauty boxes numerous times. It would have been nice to see new products. Xx

[@madziuIa]

I love the box design, but content is not very exciting and sizes are tiny 😢

[@bywhacky7395]

think gonna be a pass on this one as so many sample sizes simply gonna get lost in the drawer

[@mehere3013]

£95 for.this

[@TheBagpuss1967]

I don’t think 🤔 it’s worth the money to be honest !! 😮

[@Orangetiger1926]

A disco ball? 😂😂😂

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

🤦‍♀️😂

[@Theresebonath6077]

Its not worth it anymore so i wont buy any calenders this year only small samples almost

[@paulineholden1375]

Definitely not for me . And not worth the money . X X

[@louise5493]

For £100 this has to be a joke🥴

[@maggsdaly5123]

Not worth the money sorry and I love next boxes x

[@tram7]

Were you a bit overly excited about this calendar or perhaps something else was going on? A bit hard to follow, I paused the video 2-3 times throughout.

[@Diaryofabeautygeek]

Ooh sorry hun I didn’t notice when editing, I was very hot while filming - I do get a bit too excited sometimes as I have adhd and not on meds 😬 xx

[@tram7]

Nothing to be sorry for, I still enjoy your unboxings - been watching for years.

[@jirusakpere9508]

I hope this advent calendar cost 50 pounds because wats all dis

[@nicolebrumskill8486]

Not as good as the boots or look fantasic
