Comments
You probably know by now that John Lewis has a special place in my heart. Not only does is the brand quintessentially British and thus providing an interesting experience for anyone who is not British-born, but it also has a very high CSR score. CSR or Corporate Social Responsibility refers to a business’ accountability towards society and its environment. It is a way for companies to ensure that their products are not harmful to the environment or to public health, ensuring that the brand’s activities do not exploit employees, customers or other stakeholders. In my opinion, John Lewis sets a very high standard for CSR which is not only shown by various professional bodies from the UK, but can sort of be seen while in-store.
In terms of value for customers, they do provide high-quality products and manage to deliver on this every single time, however money-wise, you will definitely find other brands that will provide more monetary value, especially through their advent calendars. This is due to the CSR aspect mentioned above which cuts into the margins. Taking care of the environment, making sustainable decisions and caring for your employees a bit more does not come for free – it costs money… You already know this.
Product wise, there are a few products included on which I can provide some comments starting with the Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream.
- The Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream is a product that everyone seems to love, but not in my household. After trying to love it for so long, I pretty much gave up on it and started trying to get my mother to use it so that we would get rid of the many bottles. I honestly do not understand why so many people endorse the product. The cream is hydrating to some extent, but the texture is a bit sticky and not all that pleasant. I do have oily skin and that may be a factor. It works ok every once in a while, but it is not the product I would reach for every single day. From everything I have seen and experience with this product I can honestly tell you that it is super overrated and overpriced as far as I am concerned.
- Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Eye Colour, Au Naturel is a very convienet makeup item to have. The colour is not one I personally love, but it is versatile and works on various skin colours. The stick is creamy and the pay off is pretty good.
- Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo is a good dry shampoo. It does a pretty good job, adds a bit of volume without making the hair heavy or ruining its natural texture. It does not provide as amazing results as some drugstore products or other high end ones for that matter, but it is much lighter and you cannot feel it in your hair. This is a product I do recommend.
- Juliette has a Gun Not a Perfume Eau de Parfum is a pretty interesting fragrance. The notes are quite ambigious and not necessarily strong. It is not the type of perfume I would normally choose, but as someone who does like to smell nice, I can tell you it has a very high end feel. Plus, the scent pretty much adjusts to your pH. If you do like that kind of perfume then this will be perfect for you.
You know what? Overall, this John Lewis beauty advent calendar is quite nice. In fact, this is the best beauty advent calendar that John Lewis has ever released as far as I am concerned. Good for them! We all know that many retailers played it safe this year. I am happy to see that John Lewis tried to make their offering more spectacular than usual.
