[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] This is Jurlique’s first beauty advent calendar and works very well as an introduction to the brand. If you’re looking to change up your skin care, it’s an extremely good trial as Jurlique doesn’t have a long inventory of products, but focuses instead on what it does well which is utilizing biodynamically farmed botanicals. The brand already has a strong following so it’s ticking the boxes for existing fans by offering up travel sizes that will be endlessly useful.

As you can see, it’s the box insert type of advent calendar, with each box sequentially numbered so you can pull it out, remove the treat and put it back so the whole thing doesn’t collapse on itself. I have a veritable jigsaw to put together after photographing this!

Each box has a little nature inspired message on it which is a lovely touch, although in the frantic run up to Christmas you might not ‘take comfort in the knowledge you are part of nature’ as you mentally hurl sprouts at your beloveds.

Although there are repeats within the box, there’s nothing that’s not useful or usable. The Jurlique Advent Calendar focuses mainly on the face, but there are options for body and hands too with the Lavender Hand Cream and Rose Shower Gel (which I’d like to have seen repeated).

This feels like a complexion lover’s dream – it’s a grown up option that has a big value of £280 and costs £85 HERE. Jurlique is probably most well known for its Rosewater Refreshing Mist – keep it in the fridge any time of year for instant wake-ups or cool-downs with a beautiful rose fragrance. PS If you are a fan of Jurlique’s Signature Moisturiser, it’s half price on LookFantastic HERE.
