Selfridges calendar
They call it a “curated edit”, we call it proper luxury, extending Christmas cheer with a little treat every day, from delicious bath oil to miniature candles and lipstick. Beauty advent calendars have gone mainstream, with some, like this one from Selfridges, offering real value for money, too. It retails at £70 yet contains products worth around £250 in total. Liberty’s calendar sold out in two days. See it as an opportunity to try products you’d never considered even sniffing before. And anything you don’t fancy, well, that’s what your sister’s stocking is for.
