8 best beauty advent calendars 2023 that are still in stock
Attention, beauty lovers: although most of the best beauty advent calendars have now (sadly) sold out, quite a few of our favourites are still in stock, meaning there's still time to snap one up before they're gone for good.
I know, I know, it's nearly mid-December, which also means that those of us who managed to secure our beauty advent calendars are almost halfway done unboxing all the fabulous makeup and skincare goodness hidden behind the numbered shelves. That being said, it's still far too early to let the FOMO (fear of missing out) get to you.
In case you didn't know, beauty advent calendars are the crème de la crème of Christmas gifts and are especially great for the fellow beauty obsessives in your life (or your dear ol' self, because why not?). Let's be real, who wouldn't want to receive a ton of beauty goodies hidden inside stunning (not to mention re-usable) packaging? And if you're someone who lacks the patience to wait and unpack each shelf every day in the lead up to Christmas and ends up doing it all in one go anyway (guilty as charged), trust me when I tell you that it doesn't take away the excitement at all.
Best beauty advent calendars 2023 that are still in stock:
As seasoned editors who test beauty products for a living, we've already done the heavy work and picked out all the best options for you, regardless of whether you're into skincare, makeup or perfumes (or all of the above!). From late summer onwards, the entire GLAMOUR beauty team has been hard at work unboxing, reviewing and testing practically every single beauty advent calendar that's been released in 2023. Yes, every. single. one. So trust us when we say that the options we've outlined below come highly recommended and are 100% worth the money.
In case you needed further proof of just how popular beauty advent calendars are, #beautyadventcalendar has over 290 million views on TikTok (and counting). And their charm doesn't end there. For one, every one of them contains anywhere between 12 to 25 (and in some cases, more than 30) full-size and travel-size beauty treats, which is perfect for anyone who's looking to broaden their horizons and discover some new beauty brands. Plus, when you consider the worth of each product packed inside, it doesn't take #girlmath to justify the cost in the long-term (*hint, hint*).
How we selected the best beauty advent calendars of 2023:
