Holland & Barrett Advent calendar

Im not sure if anyone has started a thread for the Holland & Barrett calendar - if there is one, could someone point me in the right direction.

If not, then come December I'll resurrect this thread so we can discuss!

I said I wasn't going to get it this year as lasts wasn't brilliant but then when I had a think of the products I now regularly buy from past calendars I thought I'd give it a go.

It's much smaller in size so I'm wondering how many full size products we'll get. But I am glad it seems more robust so hopefully won't start falling apart half way through the month!

I thought I’d go and have a look, disappointed that there is a whole list of products on the site, sort of spoils the surprise doesn’t it? The list looks quite decent but I might pop in to have a look at the size before deciding if I want to ask DH to buy it or not.

I managed to avoid looking at any of it and tbh if I'd seen anything I'd probably have forgot by December.

I'm away from the 16th so not getting an AC this year so I have gone and had a good look for you all Grin

And...

Yep I think it's a good one - 16 full size products, good mix of face/hair/home
No make up
No facial roller or gua sha stone thing

I had the H&B calendar 3 years ago which was excellent, this is pretty good I think

Excellent. This is great to hear. This will be my 4th one. Lazy 3 years had some questionable items. So I'm glad I decided to go with it.

I had a quick look, seemed quite good

I've ordered mine!

I went with the M&S one last year instead and regretted it for most of December so I wanted to make sure I didn't miss out. I did have a quick look at the items but will certainly have forgotten them by Dec 1st.

Thought I'd start this up for anyone who bought it this year.

Day 1, bath soak. Smells gorgeous and will definitely be used.

Day 2, rosemary essential oil. I'm guessing there will be some sort of carrier oil on another day. I love the smell of rosemary so please with this one.
