Over 15 years ago in Denmark, The Body Shop introduced its first Advent Calendar. At that time, Christmas calendars filled with beautifully wrapped sweets, which children used to count down to Christmas Eve, were very popular. However, no one had thought of a variant to delight adults.
The owner of a The Body Shop store began to sell cosmetic products wrapped in gift packaging and numbered with the days of Advent as a surprise gift. Thus, the first beauty Advent Calendar was born.
Fast forward to 2023, when Cosmetic Advent Calendars have become one of the most anticipated and best-selling products in The Body Shop’s launch catalog.
This year, The Body Shop is offering three variants of Advent Calendars with spectacular pop-up illustrations. Lovers of beauty and goodness will discover an exceptional cosmetic product in each compartment. The calendars celebrate the positive changes in the Fair Trade partner communities of the brand, with a generous selection of naturally sourced and pure products. Carefully chosen, the surprises in the calendar include the most beloved products created by artisans using the brand’s iconic ingredients.
Laura Keane, Global Director of Product Development at The Body Shop, says:
“Cosmetic Advent Calendars are as much a part of the holiday season as warm Christmas-flavored beverages or festive TV commercials. The excitement is justified, and we are thrilled to offer three variations of cosmetic calendars to satisfy all tastes and budgets. Our calendars are loaded with ethical products at ethical prices.”
For you and your loved ones, the calendars offer daily moments of care and indulgence. Each product has been crafted with organic ingredients, obtained through hard work, for each day that brings us closer to Christmas.
For communities, the Advent Calendars celebrate The Body Shop’s Fair Trade partners who have helped create the products. All three variants are enriched with ingredients or packaging from our ethical partners around the world, from shea butter from Ghana to festive packaging from Nepal. The brand’s pioneering CFT program supports every artisan, farmer, and producer involved in creating The Body Shop products, helping suppliers gain a foothold in the market and investing in social and environmental projects in communities.
For the planet, the calendars reduce environmental impact. The Advent Calendars have been carefully designed to be reusable, using recycled and recyclable materials where possible.
