The Body Shop Advent Calendar 2016 Review

Updated on December 19th, 2022

I have been wanting The Body Shop Advent Calendar, but I could not justify spending 600 kr / $84 on it. Luckily once December began, the advent calendars were on sale and I was able to buy the smallest calendar for 30% off.

For The Body Shop Advent Calendar, I will first share the items in the calendar and then my overall thoughts on the calendar.

The first 7 items in The Body Shop Advent Calendar

Day 1: Spiced Apple Shower Gel 60 ml

Day 2: White Mini Bath Lily

Day 3: Vitamin E Moisture Cream 15 ml

Day 4: Frosted Berries Softening Body-Gel Lotion Mini 60 ml

Day 5:  Soft Facial Cleansing Sponge

Day 6: Lip Liner in Clover Pink

Day 7: Small Pencil Sharpener

The next 6 items in The Body Shop Advent Calendar

Day 8: Coconut Bar Soap

Day 9: Slanted Tweezers

Day 10: Strawberry Lip Butter 10 ml

Day 11: Vanilla Chai Softening Body Gel- Lotion 60 ml

Day 12: Eye Definer in Black

Day 13: Eyelash Curler

The next 6 items in the calendar

Day 14: British Rose Shower Gel 60 ml

Day 15: Eyeshadow Brush

Day 16: Mango Body Whip 60 ml

Day 17: Brow and Lash Brush/Comb

Day 18: Camomile Gentle Eye Makeup Remover 60 ml

Day 19: Shea Lip Butter 10 ml

The last 7 items in the calendar


Day 20: Polynesian Island Tiare Shower Gel 60 ml

Day 21: Nail File

Day 22: Pink Grapefruit Hand Cream 30 ml

Day 23: Colour Crush Nail Polish in Frosting Fancy

Day 24: Strawberry Body Butter 200 ml

Day 25:  Oils of Life Intensely Revitalizing Sleeping Cream 5 ml and Eye Mask 


Overall Thoughts

As I mentioned at the beginning of this post, the calendar was originally 600 kr / $84, and after opening all the items, I still think the price is too high and I would definitely recommend purchasing it on sale. The calendar itself was good quality, and I enjoyed opening all the items even though I was not able to start on December 1st.

Even though most advent calendars stop on December 24th, this calendar included 2 items for Christmas, which was a nice addition. I do wish there were more makeup items besides the lip liner and eyeliner instead of having 4 lotions, 3 shower gels, and 2 lip butters, but at least they were different scents and the body butter from Day 24 was full-size. I kind of like that the calendar included makeup tools, but they do not seem to be that high quality, especially the nail file.

Overall, I liked most of the items included in The Body Shop Advent Calendar, but I would still recommend purchasing it on sale.

420 kr / $59 at The Body Shop

Rate: 7/10
