WHAT'S INSIDE THE 2024 ASOS ADVENT CALENDAR?

By Symone Keisha, 3 September 2024

It may only be September but we need to get our festive priorities in order and that means... advent calendars! Our Face + Body team have been busy prepping and planning to give you the best calendar yet and we're going to be completely honest, it definitely shows. Stocked with luxury treats worth over £400 and filled with 26 skincare, makeup, hair and body care products, it's an absolute must-buy. It includes 12 full-size treats (that’s three better than last year) and of course features fan favourites and newcomers like M.A.C, Charlotte Tilbury, ELEMIS, Made By Mitchell, Sol de Janeiro and so much more. We’re expecting a sellout, so shop the advent calendar on ASOS now for just £95 and keep scrolling for some insider tips on some of the full-sized products from Beauty Buyer Aimee.

CHARLOTTE TILBURY BEAUTY LIGHT WAND

Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wand - Goldgasm, £30

We’re starting strong with an icon in the beauty game. The dewy highlighter in Glowgasm (a shade that works for all skin types) is a beauty bag essential, and provides a sun kissed glow all year round when applied to the cheeks, the bridge of the nose and brow bone.

Top tip from beauty buyer Aimee: apply in the inner corners of the eye for an instant brightening effect.

REN CLEAN SKINCARE READY STEADY GLOW DAILY AHA TONIC

REN Clean Skincare Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic with Lactic Acid 100ml, £17

If you’re working towards the best skin of your life, an AHA should be in your regimen. And would you look at that? The Ready Steady Glow Tonic is waiting for you in our advent calendar. Formulated from lactic acid, it gently evens skin tone and lessens the appearance of pores by promoting cell turnover all while giving you an unbeatable glow.

Top tip from beauty buyer Aimee: use the tonic before applying makeup for a luminous base.

Philip Kingsley 5-in-1 Elasti-Styler | ASOS Style Feed

PHILIP KINGSLEY ELASTI-STYLER 5-IN-1 TREATMENT

Philip Kingsley Elasti-Styler 5-in-1 Treatment 100ml, £30

A multi-tasking hair product? Sign us up. The Elasti-Styler is designed to prime, condition, strengthen, tame and add shine and your hair will thank you for it. A combination of phytolastin, babassu oil and olive oil works to retain moisture and nourish the hair and the effect is incredible.

Top tip from beauty buyer Aimee: use the Elasti-Styler as a leave-in treatment for better-than-ever hair.

A selection of Face + Body products including the Made By Mitchell blush | ASOS Style Feed

MADE BY MITCHELL BLURSH

Made by Mitchell Blursh - Strawberry Cream, £14

A TikTok sensation and quite rightfully so because the products are so iconic, Made By Mitchell is a makeup must-have. And we, of course, had to include one of the viral blushes in our advent calendar. A staple for the beauty bag, this liquid blush is super pigmented and blurs the skin for that airbrushed effect.

Top tip from beauty buyer Aimee: use the blush on the eyelids, as well as the cheeks, for a cohesive makeup look.

NEOM BEDTIME HERO CANDLE

NEOM Bedtime Hero Candle, £19

If we’re talking beauty, we’re also talking beauty sleep and NEOM is the brand to make that happen. Using a blend of 11 essential oils including ylang-ylang and chamomile, the sweet-smelling candle promotes relaxation and prepares you for a restful night of sleep.

Top tip from beauty buyer Aimee: for the best sleep, creating a bedtime ritual is key and the NEOM candle with its calming scent is essential.

MAC LUSTREGLASS LIPSTICK

MAC Lustreglass Lipstick in Thanks, It’s MAC, £25

Let’s face it. MAC will never let us down, especially when it comes to lipsticks. The Lustreglass lippies offer a sheer glossy finish and in true MAC style, are highly pigmented and super hydrating thanks to the shea butter and hyaluronic acid combo. And did we mention that they’re incredibly long-lasting?

Top tip from beauty buyer Aimee: I love this taupe-pink shade, it’s my go-to for every occasion. As always, don’t be scared to make this a multi-use and blend some out on the cheeks for a makeshift blusher.

And there you have it. The products up top are just some of the amazing icons in this year’s advent calendar which is now on site. For a look at the rest of the Face + Body treats included in their full sizes, take a peek here.
