But it’s not just reserved for cult brands, some of our favourite retailers have also joined in on the action. I have purchased this Advent calendar 4 times in previous years though as the recipients absolutely love it. This year’s calendar was packed with 28 products with luxury brands including Medik8, Color Wow and Floral Street.

The Liz Earle Advent Calendar 2023 contains 12 of the brand’s bestselling botanical products plus a cotton cloth.Known for its selection of cult brands, you can trust this is going to be a goodie – and it’s a sight to behold.

Aqua (water), Aloe barbadensis (aloe vera) leaf juice, Glycerin, PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil, Tocopherol (vitamin E), Cucumis sativus (cucumber) fruit extract, Anthemis nobilis (chamomile) flower extract, Calendula - officinalis (calendula) flower extract, Humulus lupulus (hops) extract, Phenoxyetha nol, Panthenol, Allantoin, Parfum (fragrance), Benzoic acid, Tocopheryl acetate, Dehydroacetic acid, Sodium hydroxide, Ethylhexylglycerin, Linalool, Limonene, Citronellol, Geraniol, Coumarin, Citric acid, Potassium sorbate. Good value for money plus nice to have a surprise in each drawer of the calendar for those 12 days of Christmas.

Beauty brands and retailers have really upped their game when it comes to advent calendars – think full-sized products, bestselling favourites and new releases across skincare, make-up, fragrance and haircare. To get you in the Christmassy mood, you could find the iconic Snow Fairy shower gel, Strawberry Santa foaming shower wash, Snow Angel bath melt and even a Christmas Eve scented candle. From cleansers and exfoliators to eye creams, moisturisers, lip balms, eye creams and hand creams, there is something to soothe all your skin needs.

Step 6: Once or twice a week, use the Hydrating Cream Mask after cleansing, and before toning and moisturising. After last year’s successful debut, it’s hardly a surprise that Harvey Nichols’s beauty advent calendar for 2023 is very impressive.

Inside you could find bestsellers like the Goodnight Pillow Mist and Geranium and Orange Hand Cream as well as a Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Booster.
