While August sees us making the most of the last few weeks of summer, for beauty brands its synonymous with the launch of their Christmas advent calendars.

Kicking off the industry’s busiest time of the year, Lookfantastic, Charlotte Tilbury and Liberty have all unveiled their sparkly offerings – and now, cult favourite Neal’s Yard Remedies has announced the return of its sell-out 12-day advent calendar.

The British beauty and wellbeing brand is much-loved for its natural and sustainably sourced formulas. Its yearly calendar showcases the best of its products – and we got an exclusive sneak peek at its line-up for 2023.

Packaged in a keepsake box, this year’s edit is designed for all skin types and routines, featuring seven full-size products and five minis.

From the beauty editor-favourite pillow mist and hyaluronic acid hydrating booster to an age-defying overnight mask and wild rose beauty balm, it contains a gorgeous collection of goodies. The advent calendar costs £95 and is worth more than £180. But, brand new for this year, those who purchased the calendar in 2022 will be given the chance to reuse their box by purchasing refills instead – if you opt for this choice, the calendar costs £89 and is worth more than £165.

From when it launches to the official launch date, here’s everything you need to know about the Neal’s Yard Remedies 12 days of beauty and wellbeing advent calendar 2023.
