The Body Shop Advent

 

My first Advent Calendar of the year —- well, my first Advent Calendar EVER!

Can you believe that?  I can’t believe after more than a decade of Blogging, I haven’t opened any advent boxes because for the fact that I am not a fan of gift-boxes that are expensive and you get a hair tie, a pad paper, a clip or random stuff in between.

I guess I have always been a smart-shopper so these types of calendars do not ring my interest.  

THIS YEAR is totally different.  The Body Shop  dropped a bomb - not really - the Body Shop dropped boxes of Advent Calendars!  Super pretty and best of all, every single item on the box are USEFUL and worth it.

The box itself is super gorgeous, no need to wrap it separately, this itself is a gorgeous present itself. 

Once opened, you get 1-24 boxes that represents Days 1 to 24!

2 layers!  Imagine that! 

#ImDreamingOf The Body Shop

Last Thursday, I attended the store relaunch of The Body Shop at SM Mall Of Asia.  The Body Shop is close to my heart for so many reasons ---

• I started Beauty Blogging talking about The Body Shop products because their products are kind to my skin.
• The brand supports advocacies I strongly believe in.
• Their store has testers widely available for you to try and friendly staffs to assist you if you have problem.

And the store looks even better today!  

And this Holiday season is no exception!  With the Christmas filled goodies, all my 5 senses were dancing with joy during my SM MOA store visit.

It is indeed a Season for Special Edition Sets!  I am loving the Rich Plum series!

Check out the price list of these Christmas Stuffers!

The Body Shop Holiday Gift Guide

If I am your personal shopper and you want me to help you purchase gifts for a family!  I will go into The Body Shop store and help you purchase these items to make the recipient oh-so-JOLLY!

For His and Hers

Bath or Shower sets are always an option for his and hers.  You can choose from wide range of Fragrance sets from the brand (on photo is the White Musk set).  Aside from that, I love the Spa of the World set too!

Sleigh The Holidays with Etude House, Tony Moly and Boulangerie22

I have always been in love with Korean makeup brands ever since I started Blogging.  I even remember those days I went crazy shopping over Ebay!  (Yes AMW Friends, Ebay as there weren't much online makeup stores selling legit makeup and skincare items!)

And my love started with BB Creams, then gel liners and a whole lot more!  Imagine the excitement when I was in Korea 7 years ago and I got an invite for a Grand Launch of Etude House locally.  I wasn't physically there but my spirit was celebrating with them!

Then Tony Moly followed.  And look!  After 7 years, I still get invited to celebrate not only Holiday but launches with both brands + more!!!  I am very grateful to YOU my dear friends!

So a couple of weeks ago, AGC, the company who brought in Tony Moly, Etude House, Boulangerie22 and Yoree had a huge Holiday Celebration and launch at Todd English Food Hall called Sleigh the Holidays.  

The celebration calls for more makeup, skincare and sweets!  Shall we start with Tony Moly?
