One of my favourite things about Christmas are the little rituals we have in the month of December. Decorating the house to feel cosier, drinking more hot chocolate than normal and of course, opening little doors every day on my advent calendar.
While the best beauty advent calendars leave us spoiled for choice, maybe you're after something a little cosier this festive season. Among the £400 jewellery calendars and £200 beauty calendars, M&S has released a much more affordable advent calendar, at just £35.
To count down to Christmas, M&S has just brought back the Wax Melt Advent Calendar: the perfect present for the cosy season and a festive favourite from last year. Here’s everything you need to know.
