How many products are repeats?

There are 12 repeated products in this advent calendar (highlighted above). 

What is different to last year?

The Body Shop have changed their colour scheme with the calendar. This comes in a lovely winter blue and is the cheapest of the three released. With the same style of illustrations, this advent is a box filled with smaller boxes, rather than the drawer structure of the other two. Still reusable, it features smaller, travel-sized products.

My Thoughts

This is the same £55.00 price, but the worth has gone up from £77.00 to £89.50. That’s amazing to see. But, weighing it up against half the contents being repeated, it really is a judgement call. 

I personally wouldn’t like an advent calendar with half the contents being the same as last year. I would expect a few repeats, mainly being the accessories. From a brand like The Body Shop, the box of wishes advent is a great introduction, but I’d look at the other two calendars they have on offer this year, if you had one last year.
