There’s no better time in the year than October through December, IMHO. The weather finally starts to cool down enough to pull out all my sweaters and leggings, seasonal Starbucks drinks are back, and the most wonderful time of year — holiday season — falls upon us. Now, I know it may be a little soon to bring the holidays into the forefront, but it’s for good reason. Tons of beauty brands have already released their seasonal advent calendars, which should be a holiday in its own right. Here are the best beauty advent calendars for 2023 to consider adding to your cart.
Beauty advent calendars are some of the perfect gifts because they include an element of surprise with each day in the calendar, plus they offer quality and quantity. Advent calendars are perfect to purchase as a gift to others – or a gift to yourself. These make the perfect holiday gift for the girlies who love anything within the beauty sphere, but don’t like the often-high prices. Along with advent calendars, there are also amazing holiday beauty gift sets for those who aren’t into the element of surprise that comes with advent calendars.
Here are the perfect beauty advent calendars and holiday gift sets to pick up this season.

Your favorite polishes and nail-care sets from Olive & June are now included in TWO holiday advent calendars! There’s the Christmas Calendar, which is 25 Days of Mani Magic ($65), with a value of $127, and the Hannukah Calendar, which is 8 Nights of Mani Magic ($55), valued at $105. These advent calendars have everything you’d need for the perfect mani, including mini nail polishes, glosses, top coats, files, and more.

These masks are great for anyone with dry skin who needs extra hydration or wants to have a spa day at home.
