The countdown to Christmas is on, and there is only one thing we can think of to make this process a tad more satisfying: a beauty advent calendar, of course. What could be more exciting than opening one of those little whimsically designed paper doors and surprising yourself with a vanilla-scented hand cream or a mini face mask day after day? Uh, nothing.
Clearly, we aren’t the only ones who feel this way. Lately, more and more of your favorite beauty brands have joined in this Christmas tradition, curating advent calendars filled with everything from skincare essentials to hair products and makeup. Best of all, these little product-filled treasure chests make the perfect gift for any beauty lover. Trust us, grab any beauty junkie one of these and they’ll love you forever.
Below, you’ll find the best beauty advent calendars from brands like Ulta, Charlotte Tilbury, Clarins, and more. And remember, try not to open all of the doors at once.
