It’s beginning to look a lot like Advent. On Monday we unleashed a tidal wave of drool over the box of delights that is the Marks and Spencer Beauty Advent Calendar 2016. Today I’m going to show you what’s inside the festive offering from one of my favourite French brands – say hello to the L’Occitane Advent Calendar 2016.
SPOILER ALERT – We’re going to be showing exactly what’s inside so if you don’t want to know then this is probably not the post for you.
Ready?
Here we go. First the pic:

So as you can see, the emphasis is on hand, bath and body. Last year there were things like stickers and gift tags in the L’Occitane Advent Calendar. I’m really pleased to see that they’ve ditched the non-beauty filler and included solid products all the way.
My favourite L’Occitane product is in here – the Almond Shower Oil, which is just delicious to use. All the travel sizes make this a great gift for a frequent flyer. Or it could be an excuse for you to take a lot more minibreaks.
Product details
The L’Occitane Advent Calendar 2016 goes on sale on the 1st of October, both online here and in stores. RRP is £42 and the contents are valued at over £80.
