Lookfantastic’s 2023 advent calendar saves £466 on beauty including eye cream worth £97

With less than three months to go until advent begins, beauty brands have started releasing this year’s advent calendars.

The last few years have seen the rise in popularity of beauty advent calendars, with shoppers loving how the contents are often worth much more than the cost.

The Lookfantastic Advent Calendar is anticipated every year by beauty lovers, who can now get their hands on the 2023 edition.

Shoppers who purchased last year have been leaving reviews on this year’s calendar, praising the value and variety of the products, with some remarking that they’ll be repurchasing every year.

For 2023, the advent calendar is worth even more than last year, and with brands like Avant, NARS and ELEMIS, the contents are worth £565, but the calendar costs just £99.

Gone are the days of a surprise behind every door, and although it takes the mystery away a bit, shoppers can now see how much they’re getting for their money before investing.

The Avant Skincare Hyaluronic Acid Molecular Boost Eye Cream is full-sized and worth a whopping £97 – almost the price of the entire calendar. It contains Hyaluronic Acid to intensely hydrate the eye area and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Another stand-out product is the full-sized M·A·C Cosmetics MACStack Mascara Mega Brush worth £26, a product which will be handy for all mascara wearers, and has rave reviews for lengthening and volumising the lashes.

While the deluxe sizes included in the box are handy for travel, it’s worth considering whether you are going to get use out all of the full-sized products, as these are what make the advent calendar worth investing in.
