„I´m a big believer in that if you focus on good skin care, you really won’t need a lot of makeup.“- Demi Moore; Rosental Advent Calender
This year, my husband gave me a special advent calendar – the one from Rosental. The moment I opened it, I felt that little tingle that only people with a true love for skincare understand. I knew immediately: This December would be different. Calmer, more mindful, a little more magical. And honestly? That’s exactly what my year had been longing for.
I didn’t just unpack the Rosental Advent calendar, I experienced it. And because many of you keep asking me which brands impress me not just in the short term, but in the long run, I’d like to show you the first nine doors today. Perhaps it will inspire you to treat yourself to such an Advent calendar next year. Because there’s something incredibly beautiful about having a moment just for yourself every morning – a mini ritual slot that quietly says: „Hey, you are important.“
Anyone familiar with Rosental knows: their products aren’t just beautifully packaged; they feel good, they work, and they have that certain something that’s hard to put your finger on. That’s precisely why the advent calendar is like a little wellness moment for me every morning. A brief pause in the December hustle and bustle, a reset button for mind and skin.
Why the Advent Calendar is perfect for testing
Especially if you’re still unsure how your skin will react to Rosental products or whether the textures suit your skin type, an advent calendar is simply perfect. You can try out a wide range of products, discover new favorites, and really get to know the brand – all without the pressure of having to buy full-size products right away.
This year, I wanted to consciously enjoy the advent calendar. No frantic tearing open, no rushing before work, but a short moment just for me. And that’s exactly how door number one greeted me: a gentle introduction, almost like a quiet promise that the coming days would hold much more. That’s something Rosental does really well – this blend of surprise and reliability.
Doors 1–3:
A gentle start into the Rosental skincare world
Door one contained a hyaluronic serum, a technique Rosental has mastered. After just a few uses, my skin felt plump and refreshed – perfect for the dry December air. Door two revealed a nourishing oil, one of my underrated favorites in the Rosental range. Just a few drops, and my skin instantly feels more relaxed.
And door three? A mini version of a popular tool – ideal for trying out and another reason why this advent calendar is a little highlight for me every morning. I really celebrated the first three days: coffee, candlelight, opening the lid, testing the product – my new December routine.
Doors 4–6:
Luxurious, nourishing and surprisingly effective
Door four brought a touch of luxury: a rich cream that instantly reminded me of winter spa days. Every year, Rosental manages to develop textures that feel light yet deliver intense nourishment. Door five revealed a small concentrate that made my skin look smoother after just a short time. And door six of the advent calendar contained a cleanser that thoroughly cleanses without stressing the skin.
These three products in particular showed me how pleasant it is to test high-quality skincare in small quantities – completely without pressure.
Doors 7–9:
My current favorite and two other highlights
Door seven was my favorite so far: a glow serum that instantly made my tired winter skin look fresh. Rosental has truly mastered the art of glow – natural, not artificial. Door eight contained a jade tool – perfect for puffy morning faces.
And door nine of the advent calendar was a gentle mask that I tried out that very evening. My skin felt so relaxed afterward that I almost fell asleep with tea and Christmas music.
Why the Rosental Advent Calendar is a gift to myself
What I love so much about Rosental is the feeling of being part of a self-care revolution. Every product feels high-quality, thoughtfully designed, and like a loving gift to myself. And that’s exactly what an advent calendar is all about: not the material value, but those daily micro-moments you have just for yourself.
You might be wondering if the Rosental advent calendar is really worth it. For me, it definitely is. Just the opportunity to get to know so many different products without having to commit to anything right away is a huge advantage. Plus, there’s that childlike sense of surprise that we adults experience far too rarely.
The advent calendar feels like a journey – you start with essentials, get something new every day, and gradually understand what Rosental stands for: effectiveness, a connection to nature, and everyday luxury.
my summary
An advent calendar that works every day
I know many of you are rather skeptical about skincare. Understandable. But that’s exactly what the Rosental Advent Calendar is for: testing, experiencing, getting to know. And if you have sensitive skin – like me – this gentle approach is invaluable.
An Advent calendar filled not with chocolate, but with self-care products, simply makes December more magical. Rosental shows how much joy small rituals can bring – especially in a time when we’re often more stressed than relaxed. So, if you’re thinking about treating yourself next year: The Rosental Advent Calendar is a gift that works every day. Not just on your skin, but also in your heart.
Of course, I’ll continue to take you along as we open the next few doors – perhaps there’s still that one product waiting to become part of my daily routine.
