eBay and This is Beauty are proud to announce the launch of a limited-edition advent calendar, with 100% of the proceeds going to The Hygiene Bank. The calendar, available from today, is packed with 24 premium beauty products and will give back to communities in need.
Featuring a hand-picked selection of skincare, haircare, and makeup from top beauty brands, the advent calendar is valued at over £250 but available for just £49.99 on ebay.co.uk. All proceeds from the sale will go directly to The Hygiene Bank, a charity committed to ending hygiene poverty across the UK.
All of the items featured in the calendar were sourced from retailers and brands that had a surplus of product otherwise destined for landfill. The calendar was made in the UK from FSC responsibly sourced materials and is fully recyclable.
Ian Pearson, Founder of This is Beauty commented on the launch “We are delighted to partner with eBay and The Hygiene Bank to offer a calendar that not only delivers incredible products at a compelling price, but also makes a difference to those in need. It’s the calendar that gives back, not only helping people in poverty, but helping stop these surplus products from having negative environmental impact”
The Hygiene Bank’s mission is to provide essential items like soap, toothpaste, and shampoo to individuals and families who can’t afford them, with donations distributed by volunteers to their network of community partners, which include schools, foodbanks, community centres or homeless shelters.
Ruth Brock, CEOof The Hygiene Bank, shared her appreciation for the initiative: “This partnership will have a significant impact on our ability to support people who struggle with the cost of hygiene products. In the Christmas countdown – a time when we all want to feel joy and optimism, every advent calendar sold will contribute to restoring dignity and hope for those in need.”
