Fab Find of The Week: Onolla Winter Wellness Advent
And b-r-e-a-t-h-e. It feels like we all need to do a bit more of that, at the moment.
So this week’s Fab Find – curated by the Barnes-based wellness boutique founded by our beauty editor/author colleague Suzanne Duckett – is the Onolla Winter Wellness Advent, designed to help you breathe, and relax, and start 2023 basically as you mean to go on. It’s kind of like a ‘self-care advent calendar’ – except that this one kicks off on 1st January.
We need to address the price-tag, first: it’s £250 – which is certainly a considerable investment (not least in the current climate). But the contents offer £1,000 worth of value, mostly full-size products (with so, so many being Beauty Bible Award-winners, actually, from brands including Wildsmith, Kalmar, Innersense, The Organic Pharmacy, Rhûg Wild Beauty, among many other acclaimed names).
It’s the extra dimension which makes this special, though. When you invest in the Onolla Winter Wellbeing Calendar Box, you also gain access to a ‘vault’ of information, with expert advice for every one of the 31 days it covers, either from Suzanne herself, or from chef and wellbeing expert Jasmine Hemsley, TCM practitioner Katie Brindle, astrologers Shelley von Strunckel and Emma Howarth, integrative medicine pioneer Deepak Chopra. As Suzanne puts it, ‘it’s designed to transform January from dreary to cheery, with 31 days of discovering products, practices and practitioner expertise to nurture mind, body and soul.’
The box of wonders can certainly be gifted to someone else – an amazing present, for someone truly special. But we think that this is something that, if budget allows, people will want to invest in for themselves, to help create a blueprint for wellness in the coming year. (We’ve noticed, in fact, that there’s a real re-prioritisation of where people are spending the money they have: less on clothes and throwaway items; more on treatments and products to make us feel more resilient, more like the calm at the centre of the crazy storm that’s swirling around us right now.)
So, here’s to a more balanced life (and world), in 2023. And thank you, Onolla, for doing your bit to help…
