I must be crazy because I seem to enjoy the sweet torture of looking at makeup I just can’t buy easily in Australia. Go check out the Sephora website and see what I mean! And no they don’t ship to Australia (see below for links to places that do). When I saw that the Benefit Countdown to Love Advent Calendar I actually squealed out loud!!!! A makeup Advent Calender, shut the front door!!And then remembered I couldn’t get my hands on it. I was super lucky because a very kind Redditor from the sub reddit r/makeupaddiction offered to grab the calendar for me and post it on (at my cost of course). I couldn’t believe my luck!!! Thank You again kind makeup addict!!! I bought two advent calendars, one for me and one for my lovey Sister in Law. I really wanted to share the fun with you!I will be posting a pic of the day’s makeup gift to Facebook every day (starting today) and posting a round up each Friday here.
DAY 14 BADgal Lash mini
Benefit says: Sexy, sultry, pure unadulterated black mascara for full, voluminous lashes. It’s as BAD as you want to be! Famously big, bodacious brush coats lashes with our super black formula. Gently dot BADgal liner waterproof in between your lashes, then coat with BADgal lash mascara to make them look naturally fuller. Twirl the brush in the vial. Pumping it in and out will only dry out your mascara.
DAY 15 Posietint mini 7.5ml
Benefit says: This poppy-pink tinted stain brightens cheeks & lips with a cheery flush and natural finish. Kiss-proof & nuzzle-proof, the liquid-gel formula blends to just-picked perfection on all complexions and lasts for hours. For the most even flush, dab posietint on our foundation brush and blend on one cheek at a time
DAY 16 Hoola mini
Benefit says: Dust this award-winning bronzing powder over your chin, cheeks and forehead for a healthy, natural looking “tan” year-round. Complete with soft, natural-bristle cheek brush, it’s pure matte color…no sparkle or shine!
DAY 17 Ultra Plush Lip Gloss mini in Sugarbomb
Benefit says: Our new plush glosses glide on extra smooth and feel ahhh-mazingly silky & luxurious. The six irresistible shades, from sultry nudes to punchy pinks, come in soft-squeeze tubes with a custom tip designed for perfectly even application. Beauty bonus: They’re the perfect partners for our bestselling box o’ powders! Sugarbomb (shimmering pinky nude)
DAY 18 Sun Beam mini 2.5ml
Benefit says: This golden bronze highlighter gives you a natural, sunkissed radiance. Dot & blend over makeup on to cheek & brow bones for a bronzed glow that complements all skintones. It’s liquid sunshine in a bottle! Dot on top of cheekbones & blend towards the hairline. Dab under each brow & gently blend.
DAY 19 Girl Meets Pearl mini 7.5ml
Benefit says: This soft, golden-pink liquid pearl luminizer features light-reflecting pigments to give your complexion an exquisite, dewy glow. It includes raspberry & chamomile, known for their soothing properties…and sweet almond seed extract known to help improve skin firmness & smoothness. Pat it on over blush to highlight cheekbones with a pop of pearly pleasure! Pat & blend over makeup for eye-catching luminescence. Wondering how much to apply? One twist for subtle sheen…two or more for dewy radiance.
DAY 20 Ooh La Lift mini
Benefit says: This legendary under-eye brightening boost looks like an instant eyelift! Contains raspberry extracts and light-reflecting pigments to instantly perk up tired eyes. This delicate pink balm can be applied on bare skin or over makeup. Apply three little dots under each eye and gently pat with fingertip. Reapply as needed for a perky-eyed pick-me-up.
