[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] Yes, here we are again. This is the advent that sold out in three days flat last year and it’s proving to be one of my favourites. Firstly, it’s 12 days and I think in these beauty overload times 12 days seems somehow more reined in and secondly, everything in it is really useful! It doesn’t launch until 15th October which is stylishly late compared to everyone else so far but wanted to feature it so you can decide if you want it over other earlier launches. I’ll try and do a reminder on Instagram but you can sign up to be notified HERE.
It’s a mostly skin care in a mix of 30ml and 15ml sizes and as you’d expect, since it’s such a strong point of this brand, there are several masks. You’ve got the complete kit – cleanser, moisturiser and mask – a couple of times over and more besides. Anyone who loves the Origins Ginger range won’t be disappointed because of course it makes an appearance!
I think it’s cute (embarrassed to say I thought it was a series of London buses until I belatedly spotted the train driver!) – fun without being flashy and completely non-denominational. It’s £60 with a value of over £90. In case you are in an Origins mood already, there are some extremely good value sets over on their site at the moment the Radiance Boosting Essentials Kit caught my eye – it’s £40 instead of £56 HERE, and I feel sure they’ll be gone as soon as festive shopping kicks in.

If things have to be non-denominational then perhaps the beauty companies and everyone else need to rename these calendars – as an Advent Calendar by its very nature is denominational!
Yes… I think some did last year but I forget exactly the name they used.
I’m always a bit confused by these beauty advent calendars..I mean do t get me wrong they always look amazing and are great value…my confusion is they’re too fancy to justify buying for myself (particularly around Christmas!) but if you buy as a Christmas gift for someone …and it is an open one window each day on run UP to Christmas…then you sort of need to give the gift end of Nov??! Is it just me…? #probably❤️
yes – I hear you … my niece’s birthday is in November so that’s an easy one – I think they’re fair game for birthdays from October onwards (waiting never hurt anyone!) and if you feel you can’t quite justify it for yourself (quite understand when there is a lot of pressure on the purse upcoming) you could always do a swap with a friend that you gift each other early with one? I’m sure it’s just about expanding your perameters Fi :-))))))))))))
Expanding my parameters…you’re SO right Jane…and I know just the friend to help me…I mean we are both beauty fiends but buying and swapping means I can legitimately say it was a gift!!
happy to be of service :-))))
I thought buses too 🙂
whew!
