For October, Glossybox decided to run with a pop art theme and I’m glad they did.

How cool is the box? Last month’s Karen Millen box was gorgeous too, I’m starting to consider the boxes a product in their own right.

I’m really happy with this box, 6 products and 4 of them are full size and I will use every one. My favourite product is the Yves Rocher perfume, it smells lovely and it attracted a few complimentary comments. The Ciate polish is cool as well, I have lots of nail polish so usually when I get a nail polish in a box I already have one in the same colour but I don’t have a green one (it looks blue in the pic but it’s green) so I’m glad to have it. It’s also a good Halloween colour and it fits the pop art theme 🙂

I love Christmas. I love advent calendars. I love cosmetics. I love surprises.

So beauty advent calendars really are Christmas in a box to me. Fortunately the wait is over and the first beauty advent calendar of 2014 (that I know of) is now officially on sale!

So what is it and where can you buy it?

It’s…The Ciate Mini Mani Manor Nail Polish Advent Calendar!

You can only buy it from Selfridges or from www.selfridges.com , it is £49.00 and while I won’t be buying one myself because I have more nail polish than I can store, it really is an amazing little item and it will sell out FAST. So if you want one then you should hotfoot it over there.

Here is what the calendar looks like :

They are currently still in stock 🙂

There are 3 different variations of the calendar and from what I can tell it is a lucky dip as to which variation you will receive.

Wondering what the next beauty advent calendar to go on sale will be?

I’ll let you know soon.
