You'll never guess what I found today? Photos of the highlighter and eyeshadows in my last post (MAC Shiny Pretty Things) before I used them! I knew I was well enough trained not to just dig into something without a photo first!! Typical I find it the day after though, much like my group shots when I forget something, which coincidentally I also did yesterday.  Not for that post, but anyway, I'll update the photos when I get time, but first I'm bringing you yet another flashback festive item.  This time, it's just from last year and let me tell you, this one is ALL about the packaging. Remember your treat at the bottom of the post and my Irregular Choice Festive Footwear will be up later tonight on The Shoe Girl Diaries.

For Christmas 2021, beauty advent calendars are back! During the pandemic last year, for many reasons I would assume, a lot of brands didn't launch calendars for Christmas. Between shop closures, restricted numbers in stores, shipping delays and likely just the general mood (though to be honest, I could've done with some extra sparkle), we missed out, but I've put together a list of 20 beauty advents that I think need your attention, starting with "the big one" launching today!
