Advent Calendar

Beauty advent calendars turn the countdown to Christmas into 12 or 24 days of surprises. Ours are packed with full-size makeup, skincare and haircare from brands you already know, at a fraction of what the contents are worth individually.

They sell out well before December, so it's worth deciding early. Browse all Christmas gift ideas or the wider gifts range.

How do I choose a beauty advent calendar?

Start with the number of days. A 24-day calendar carries you through to Christmas Eve and generally holds a wider mix. A 12-day countdown costs less and suits a smaller gift or a shorter build-up. After that it comes down to contents: mixed calendars spread across face, eyes, lips and skincare, while themed ones concentrate on a single category.

Are beauty advent calendars good value?

The contents are usually worth several times the price of the calendar, which is the main reason they sell. The comparison worth making is against what you would pay for the items individually — each of ours lists its full contents, so you can check before you buy rather than taking it on trust.

When should I buy an advent calendar?

Earlier than feels necessary. Beauty advent calendars are produced in limited runs and the popular ones are gone by mid-November. If you are buying as a gift, September through October is the safe window. Leaving it until December usually means choosing from what is left.

Can I use an advent calendar outside Christmas?

Yes, and plenty of people do. The doors are numbered by day rather than dated, so a calendar works just as well counting down to a birthday, a wedding, a holiday or a new job. A 12-day countdown makes a good build-up to any occasion — nothing about the format ties it to December.

What is usually inside a beauty advent calendar?

It varies by calendar, but a mixed one typically spans face makeup, eyes and lips, often with skincare and a fragrance or body product. Sizes range from full-size to travel minis, which is part of how the value adds up.

What if I want something smaller?

A calendar is not the only way to build anticipation. Stocking fillers and gifts under $25 work well alongside one, or on their own for secret santa. Perfume gift sets are the safer option if you are buying for someone whose makeup shades you do not know.

A new Christmas tradition has been sweeping the nation in recent years and it comes in the form of an advent calendar. These calendars, which are available in almost every type of merchandise you can imagine, offer you a unique way to count down the days until Christmas while still receiving that perfect gift at the end of each day to get you excited. This means that no matter how big or small your budget may be, there’s something out there to suit everyone this holiday season! Find out more about advent calendars and all of their various forms with this helpful guide!

Advent Calendars range in prices, based on the brand, products inside the Calendar and the amount of days the Calendar goes for. You can find the best priced Advent Calendars at Cosmetic Capital, Australia’s premium destination for affordable beauty. Better yet, you can buy now and pay later with Afterpay and zipPay for your Advent Calendar.

Although most popular at Christmas, Advent Calendars can be used at any time of year if you repurpose them into countdown calendars. Whether it’s counting down to a birthday, new job, holiday or wedding, an Advent Calendar is the perfect way to raise the excitement over 12 or 24 days.

Advent Calendars only have the day number on the doors, not the actual date. So you can choose to build excitement with a new Nail Polish, Lipstick, Moisturiser and more without waiting just for Christmas.

Advent calendars make for great Christmas gift ideas; some are specifically designed for beauty products. You can find a wide range of options in drugstores and beauty supply stores, ranging from simple cardboard calendars to chocolate-filled masterpieces designed by big brands. In order to give the person you love an excellent gift this year, find an advent calendar that contains their favourite cosmetics and skincare products – Cosmetic Capital has some great options for you to consider!

While gift giving might feel like a chore for some (particularly during December), for many it’s still important to have festive times with friends and family. Whether you’re alone or with loved ones, there are plenty of ways to make gift giving exciting again. Since it can be hard to find a present for every person in your life and not all celebrations call for wrapping paper and bows, one option is to give an advent calendar filled with treats and beauty products.

Advent calendars are popular Christmas gifts often used by companies in order to celebrate the lead up to Christmas. A popular variation of an advent calendar is a beauty advent calendar - often containing 24 numbered doors with beauty products inside. Your decision as to whether you want to delve into any of these items is up to you, but generally they are full of beauty and makeup tools designed to pamper your skin before Christmas Day. This is a great way to slowly build that Holiday festive cheer!

If you want to buy an advent calendar, you can order one online at Cosmetic Capital. Beauty advent calendars are very popular and are packed full of essential items from best-sellingSkincareandMakeup Brands. Speciality advent calendars are harder to find in stores these days and that is why it is recommended to shop online for ease and convenience.
