The John Lewis Beauty Advent Calendar is an impressive product with external dimensions of 345mm width x 340mm height x 130mm depth. It features a hinged/clamshell opening that opens from the center, and the door is a 3 sided tray-both. The box is a simple tray, with some card attached inside the door and the tray-both doors, which acts as a very basic hinge.
To further enhance its design, an inner tray is placed in the outer case, creating a shoulder box effect when the door is closed, giving a line effect that looks the same as the hinge. Overall, the Advent Calendar's innovative design and attention to detail make it a standout product in the beauty industry.
There are 25 boxes of different sizes that have been printed on the inside and lined with a beautiful pink/purple color. The boxes are made of 1.5mm board, which makes them durable and strong. The inner tray is made of 3mm board, and it comes with solid dividers to keep the items inside secure and organized.
The uncoated paper used to make these boxes adds a natural and eco-friendly touch to their design. With various sizes available, these boxes are versatile and suitable for packaging different products.
