Bonjour, lecteurs! I know you might not want to hear about it yet. But Christmas is fast approaching, so I am trying to be organisée this year. Are you getting an advent calendar? We tend to stick to a classic chocolate version. But this year, I fancied a little something for myself. After all, mamas do so much. They deserve a little treat. Very UK launched a festive box with a selection of iconic beauty products, and they kindly sent me one to test. So here is my Very UK Festive Beauty Box Review.
Advent Calendars
Did you know? 33% of Brits purchase advent calendars every year. While chocolate advent calendars are still très populaires, alternative options continue to gain traction year over year.
From beauty to candles and toys, and even food and wine, brands have really stepped up their game this year.
Very UK did not miss the festive memo. Indeed, the brand offers une grande sélection de calendriers. Whether you are looking
for a special gift, a fun way to count down to Christmas, or a beauty box filled with new treats to test, you will find the perfect advent calendar.
Even better, Very UK has also launched its very own beauty box for ladies to enjoy a bit of pampering.

My First Impressions
I received mine last week, and I am pretty chuffed with all the beauty bits I got!
Beauty advent calendars can be a hit and miss at times. But what I like about this beauty box is the wide range of products from some of the top beauty brands.
I am looking forward to using the Sensse LED Skin Lift. This beauty tool on its own is worth £34.99! I can really do with a device to sculpt and tone my face and neck.
I was also very impressed by the French sélection: Caudalie and Gatineau are cult skincare brands. The Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Mousse is also a treat. It works wonders on the skin.
Un autre plus? The Patchology eye gel patches and a collagen DNA mask from STARSKIN. I have never tried this one, so I am very excited to give it a go.
The Very UK Festive Beauty Box Review – Le Verdict
I am no beauty expert, but I am delighted with the Very UK Festive Beauty Box.
J’adore la variété of beauty items it contains. This edit brings together sought-after skincare, salon-worthy haircare, and innovative beauty tools from leading brands. You even get the OPI Nail Lacquer in a beautiful gold shimmer and some fragrances.
The cherry on top? 12 of the 20 products are full-sized. It’s such a bargain for £75!
It’s truly a lovely alternative to a classic beauty advent calendar box. Plus, l’excuse parfaite to bring a little Christmas magic to your beauty routine
The box is very pretty and I will certainement keep it to store bits on my desk.
Last but not least, overall, it’s very good value for money. I’ve seen some beauty advent calendar boxes selling for over £300, and I think it is a bit over the top. Sure, I like a beauty treat, but I don’t want to feel guilty about it.
That’s the biggest win with The Very UK Festive Beauty Box: I have a lovely selection of products that I am really excited to use over the next few weeks for only £75.
Oh, and I also got a cheeky chocolate advent calendar to add some fun… Pourquoi pas?
