Ditch chocolate this Christmas with top health & beauty advent calendars

EVERYONE loves a calendar to count down the days till Christmas, but they don’t have to be crammed full of sweets and chocolates.

The latest advent calendars come filled with all kinds of goodies – including treats from the health and beauty world. Today we have a look at some of them.

Health

with Jane Atkinson

Vitamins

  • Nourished advent calendar, £59.99 from get-nourished.com – buy now

Behind each door of Nourished’s calendar are 3D-printed vegan, sugar-free “gummy stacks” that include seven active ingredients.

Each week has a theme, such as Inner Defence or High Flyer.

Tastes great and comes with one month’s supply of 3D-printed vitamins. My favourite.

Tea

  • The English Tea shop calendar, £10 from english-heritageshop.org.uk – buy now

The perfect way to take a break in the busy festive season.

The English Tea shop calendar contains 25 organic tea bags, including Festive Spice, Chai Charge and my favourite, Peachy Keen, with rosehip & lemongrass.

A cool, interactive design where the boxes can be rearranged into puzzles.

Protein

  • Protein Ball Co advent calendar, £19.99 from theproteinballco.com – buy now

The Protein Ball Co advent calendar features five flavours of gluten and sugar-free protein balls that are just 28cals each.

Packaging and design are a bit dull, but it’s a great post-workout protein hit in one mouthful.

Beauty

Budget

  • Beauty Pro 12 Days of Christmask, £29.95, was £39, from fragrancedirect.co.uk – buy now

This advent calendar features 12 full-sized sheet masks for the face, eyes, hands and feet.

A fab gift to make sure you’re pampered top-to-toe in the run up to Christmas.

The contents are worth almost £60, so it’s a decent saving too.

Mid-range

  • No 7 25 Days Of Beauty Advent Calendar, £45 from boots.com – buy now

This features 25 products with everything you need from mascara, lipstick and eyeliner to skincare, face masks, nail products and even accessories like tweezers and eyelash curlers.

The contents are worth £172.50 so it’s a huge saving and an amazing range of products for the price.

Luxury

Full-sized and mini beauty products from high-end brands including Elemis and Molton Brown.

One of the best on the market, the contents are worth £480.

One moisturiser is worth £63 alone. My favourite, and a total bargain for what you get.
