It’s been a blockbuster 2025 at Broadsheet Access. And as end-of-year festivities kick off, we’re celebrating with 12 Days of Access: that’s 12 fab prize-package giveaways over 12 days that’ll have you (and your friends and family) set up for Christmas and beyond.

 

Each day we’ll reveal a new gift bundle from some of our favourite local independent brands, stuffed with goodies you can parcel out as presents to your nearest and dearest, offer to guests at your next holiday get-together – or just keep yourself for an extra dose of seasonal cheer.

 

Check here each day from December 1 to 12 for the current offer. Broadsheet Access members can enter each draw, so remember to pop by daily to make the most of the 12 Days of Access giveaways. (And if you’re not an Access member yet, what’s stopping you? Head here to join.)

Day 5 of the 12 Days of Access:

Made in founder Katey Mandy’s native New Zealand – and harnessing the country’s land, sea and alpine botanicals – Raaie produces high-performance skincare focused on sun protection. The Sephora-endorsed brand’s pleasingly curvy packaging looks more like a mini sculpture installation than a collection of beauty products, and what’s inside is backed by some serious science. Here’s what Raaie is giving away for the 12 Days of Access: one Golden Nectar mānuka honey enzyme cleanser, a handcrafted gua sha tool and a Shinto face towel, all housed in Raaie’s signature vanity bag.
