Expert Picks: Dr. Emma McMullen’s Highlights from the Wonders Advent Calendar
At Avant, we believe beauty should be as much about science as it is about indulgence. That’s why our Wonders Advent Calendar celebrates both the natural origins of our ingredients and the clinical research that makes them so effective.
This year, we’re thrilled to share the expert recommendations of Dr. Emma McMullen MBChB FRCP, acclaimed dermatologist and familiar face from Skin A&E on Apple TV, Channel 5, and Prime Video. Dr. McMullen has handpicked her must-have products from the calendar—formulas that blend advanced dermatological science with the purity of nature.
Here are her highlights:
Pro-Intense Hyaluronic Acid Illuminating Day Cream
A daily essential! Dr. McMullen praises this lightweight day cream for its ability to hydrate deeply while absorbing quickly. It soothes, cools, and balances the skin—leaving it supple and comfortable without excess shine.
R.N.A Radical Anti-Ageing & Lifting Duo Moisturiser
As a nighttime essential, this cream gets high marks for being both light and powerful. Dr. McMullen highlights the importance of allowing the skin to breathe and recover overnight, and she loves how the combination of R.N.A and Glycolic Acid actively supports cell turnover for smoother, firmer-looking skin.
Blue Volcanic Stone Purifying & Antioxidising Cleansing Gel
For Dr. McMullen, cleansing is non-negotiable, and this cleansing gel makes it a gentle yet effective step. Its creamy texture effortlessly removes makeup, pollution, and excess oil without stripping the skin, leaving it soft, refreshed, and balanced.
Deluxe Hyaluronic Acid Vivifying Face & Eye Night Cream
This multitasking cream is one of her top recommendations for combination skin. It delivers deep hydration while helping to balance the complexion, visibly improving pigmentation and fine lines over time.
Brightening & De-Puffing Hyaluronic Overnight Eye Recovery Mask
Dr. McMullen reminds us that the eye area is especially delicate and often shows the first signs of ageing. She recommends this mask for its nourishing yet lightweight formula, enriched with Hyaluronic Acid and Shea Butter to keep the under-eye area smooth, bright, and refreshed by morning.
With Dr. McMullen’s expert eye, it’s clear that the Avant Skincare Wonders Advent Calendar is more than a beautiful holiday gift—it’s a dermatologist-approved journey through natural ingredients and advanced science, designed to deliver real results with every drawer you open.
