Here are the best beauty advent calendars of 2023! Listing them has become a tradition that not-so-secretly starts my Christmas season every year. I always look forward to searching the most interesting, lovely and fun beauty calendars from different categories. Though I have to admit – the best ones are hard to beat and usually stay great year after year (Rituals I’m looking at you).

Whether it’s affordable or luxury you’re after, I got you, so let’s see what goodies we got!

And yes I know I know, it’s September when I’m posting this – but beauty calendars tend to go fast.
And on the other hand, as I mentioned, I kind of start my season early. If you like that vibe, come follow me on my Christmas Instagram account.

KICKS Beauty Advent Calendar The Expert 2023

Last year I had this calendar and I loved it. There’s a really nice selection of different items from makeup to skincare to hair. You’ll find lots of products from KICKS’ own line Beautyact – which is a good thing, because having tried the brand’s makeup, it’s great. Price is also fair!

Rituals Premium, Deluxe & Classic Advent Calendars 2023

Rituals has three calendars. The biggest difference is that two of those calendars are in a village form, where you get led lights as well. I’ve had that version once, and it looks super cute with the lighted houses. But I have to say, the Classic calendar also looks super cute! When it comes to contents, all of them contain lovely pampering products for body, face and hair. Both the Classic and Premium contain one of my favorite serums for the face: namaste anti-ageing serum.

Lumene Nordic Beauty Secrets Advent Calendar 2023

Lumene’s calendars tend to look like beautiful artwork. Not to forget the contents that your skin loves (and needs, in the winter). This year’s calendar offers products from all the different product lines, including the most loved Nordic C and Nordic Hydra. Some makeup there too – good choice if you want a bit of everything and love trying new products.

Lookfantastic Advent Calendar 2023

This year Lookfantastic’s calendar is quite fantastic. There are some products you tend to see every year, but this year offers more surprises. I like seeing MAC, Medik 8, Rituals and NARS represented, to name a few brands. 27 products, 12 of them full-sized. A nice deal!

Charlotte Tillbury ‘Charlotte’s Lucky Chest of Beauty secrets’ Beauty Advent Calendar 2023

This celebrity makeup artist’s calendar tempts me every year and I’m on the waitlist. This wonderful beauty chest contains 12 products, which gives a great chance to try some of the best-selling products like the Hollywood Beauty Light Wand highlighter. But scrolling through the products, I would honestly be happy to try any of those gorgeous products.

Cult beauty’s calendar, as the name suggests, contains some very nice cult classic products.

You’ll get your money’s worth at least with Olaplex nro 3 hair perfector (travel size), a Jo Loves ‘Roasted Chestnuts’ small candle, Sunday Riley’s Sunday Genes full sized product (£70) and a really pretty Roen eyeshadow palette (£43).

Neal’s Yard’s Remedies Beauty Advent Calendar 2023

NYR offers you skincare pampering with their dreamy blue calendar. It contains only 12 products, but I’ll let it slide, since I love their products. This calendar is a great chance to try out a natural brand – and get the most basic skincare stuff on the shelf (a hydrating serum, a nourishing face cream, an eye cream and an oil – plus more). £95, worth over £180

essence Advent Calendars Merry Everything & Happy Always & X-Mas Mail DIY

As usual, essence has two calendars. One ready to go and other DIY one, where you wrap the presents yourself. Merry Everything & Happy Always contains a great brow gel and nail polishes. There’s also eyeliner stencils, which sounds interesting! The DIY calendar is also tempting, since it contains two mascaras (the best product you can get from essence, in my opinion), lots of nail polishes and other fun stuff.

I’m not-so-secretly excited, that every year I get to start my Christmas dreaming early, listing the best beauty advent calendars. It’s a task I take seriously and look forward to every Fall.

And I know – some of you are reading this and checking the date. It’s September, why on earth am I talking about Christmas? But as you may know, most beauty advent calendars are sold out on october – though luckily some are still available for longer. In my experience: when you find one you like, you should be fast.

Beauty advent calendars are the ultimate Christmas gift to yourself. Who doesn’t like to explore new products and brands – or possibly fill their makeup bag with things they already know they’re gonna love and use?

Here are this year’s best beauty calendars, including makeup, skincare, hair and body products. And once again, I’ve chosen calendars from different price points.

BEST BEAUTY ADVENT CALENDARS 2022

*This list will updated as new calendars come on sale!*

For most calendars, you’ll find the the full contents on the site, so I recommend checking that out. Then you know what you’re paying for and won’t be disappointed. And then again, you won’t remember it in December and will be happily surprised!

The Body Shop Advent Calendars 2022 

The Body Shop offers three calendars to choose from. These always go fast, maybe because they’re quite affordable, yet they have good value.

If you’re into creamy shower gels, fruity body creams, face masks and other deliciously scented beauty products, these calendars are here for you. I’m personally most drawn to the red (Box of wonders) calendar and have my eye on products like Coffee Face Mask, Camomile Cleansing Butter and Almond Milk Shower Cream.

Rituals Advent Calendars 2022

Rituals have become my new beauty advent calendar favorite, because of great quality products that I know are going to use. Lovely foaming shower gels, body creams that actually do the job and some nicely scented candles. You know, the every day luxury one longs for.

This year Rituals also offers three calendars – 2D, 3D and a premium one. The 3D and premium calendars come with christmas lights (important detail as these act as your Christmas decorations). When it comes to contents, the 2D and 3D calendars have quite many similar products. You get most full-sized products in the premium calendar.

2D Advent Calendar 76,50€ (worth 142,90€)

Lookfantastic Advent Calendar 2022 £95 worth over £500

If you want a variety of brands and products, Lookfantastic is a good choice. I’ve had it 3 times and always loved it. I feel like this year the focus is on skincare and high-end brands like Elemis, Drunk Elephant and Zelens (or maybe those are just the products that caught my eye looking at the contents). If you’re into lux creams and love to try new stuff (hello face cleansing brush!), check out the lookfantastic calendar.

MAC Cosmetics Box of Tricks Advent Calendar £165 (worth over £400)

If you’re into professional, high-quality makeup, MAC is a good choice. Bonus points for cute packaging, that is nice to keep on display.
