I know it’s still only November, but I’m just so excited that all my favourite beauty brands have started launching their Christmas collections, that I simply can’t wait until December to start featuring my Christmas write-ups and gift guides. Watch this space, there will be many more to come!
Even more exciting – the much-anticipated, adored the world over, ‘beauty advent calendars’ are starting to surface, and The Body Shop has come to the party with a pretty damn spectacular one…
24 Happy Days Advent Calendar
Christmas only comes once a year, so why not make the magic start earlier?! This 24-piece set from The Body Shop consists of all the best sellers – everything from skincare to fragrance, makeup to inspirational messages, so you’ll be feeling fab from head-to-toe. And because beauty is skin-deep, you’ll feel good knowing that a family in Ethiopia will benefit from one day of safe water thanks to The Body Shop’s partnership with WaterAid.
The Glazed Apple Collection
A sweet treat for your skin with crisp notes of green apple sweetened with candy floss and vanilla. A body indulgence you’ll savour all season long. This isn’t your typical natural apple scent but a very sweet, candy fragrance, which is great for me because I like my perfumes to give me a tooth ache. This is a collection I’d happily use all year round, and in its second year, has become a firm fave!
If the whole collection is a little out of reach – the Glazed Apple Body Butter is one of the main stars of the show here. It’s got a thick and very moisturising texture that leaves your skin feeling soft and hydrated all day, and I just love how the scent lingers for hours and leaves your clothes smelling heavenly too. If you’re going to pick up only one thing, I’d say get the body butter. It’s really, really good! 🙂
The Frosted Plum Collection
The Frosted Plum scent is everything! It encompasses the essence of The Body Shop, Christmas, and fun all in one. This is definitely a must have for any Body Shop fans.
With sweet, sophisticated extracts of plum from the orchards of Turkey, the delectable seasonal Frosted Plum body care range has an elegant blend of ripe plum, magnolia and peony notes. This special edition fruity-floral range is an irresistibly indulgent skin treat, ideal for the festive spirit!
There are full sets to choose from (the oversized apple tin set is pretty cool), as well as individual pieces. You can choose from shower gels, exfoliators, lotions, oils, candles and more.
Check out the new collections, and of course the amazing advent calendar, in-store and online now.
