The Body Shop is selling £120 beauty advent calendar for £49 online

As a beauty writer here at the Manchester Evening News, I'm partial to a beauty advent calendar or two. We've unboxed Christmas countdowns from Boots, Glossybox and Face the Future, among others, but we've stumbled upon another calendar that's still in stock and worth picking up, if you haven't already got one on order.

The Advent Calendar of Wonders from The Body Shop has a total value of £120, but shoppers can snag it with almost 60% off. That brings it to the much friendlier price of £49 - a saving of £71.

There are 24 doors to open in the run-up to December 25 - and it's bursting with The Body Shop's bestselling bits to pamper the body from head-to-toe. Plus, you get a free skincare gift worth £25 with the purchase of the advent calendar, too.
