There’s nothing quite like the daily unwrapping of gifts in the lead-up to Christmas. A lipstick today, a serum tomorrow, and more surprises all the way until the spectacular main event.

Get in the festive mood with these five beauty advent calendars that hold skincare, makeup, fragrances and more. Plus, you can always give the drawer boxes a second lease of life to keep the holiday magic going.

01 - Armani Beauty Advent Calendar, SGD680
Here to make the month of December even more festive is this red-hot advent calendar from Armani. It delivers 24 delightful gifts, including eight full-size products, 15 miniatures and a special object across skincare, makeup and fragrances.

Individually numbered drawers contain the brand’s bestsellers, such as the Liquid Eyeshadow, Lip Maestro Lipstick and Si Eau de Parfum. ARMANI BEAUTY

02 - Augustinus Bader 12 Days Of Skincare Advent, SGD870
As its name suggests, this advent calendar offers a dozen products sure to delight any skincare enthusiast. The brand’s signature blue box contains a mix of full-size heroes and travel-size minis, all powered by its star cellular-renewing TFC8 Complex, of course.

Without giving too much away, examples include The Retinol Serum (7ML), The Rich Cream (30ML) and The Face Oil (10ML). In other words, everything you need for healthier skin as you step into the new year. AUGUSTINUS BADER

03 - Dior Beauty Le Montaigne Advent Calendar, SGD995
Even before you get into it, this advent calendar impresses with a façade that recreates the maison’s historic boutique. Tug on its golden CD handles to unveil stunning gold illustrations by Pietro Ruffo and 24 drawers each holding a miniature Dior Beauty creation.

You’ll find favourites like J’adore and Miss Dior fragrances, makeup including Rouge Dior lipsticks, as well as Dior Prestige skincare. To top it all off, there’s also a scented candle for an enchanting countdown. DIOR

04 - Guerlain The Hive Of Wonders Advent Calendar, SGD1090
Since 1853, the bee has been the emblem of Guerlain. Besides reflecting the maison’s commitment to preserve and protect nature, it also magnifies ingredients from the hive in its products. So, it’s only fitting that this advent calendar is modelled after a beehive.

Drawing from the sparkling world of artist Shourouk Rhaiem, it sees a trail of shimmering bees animating a rhinestone ribbon. Inside, 25 treasures from perfume and scented candles to skincare and makeup promise a magical year-end. GUERLAIN

05 - YSL Beauty Advent Calendar Holiday 2024, SGD800
Elevate your beauty routine with 24 minis of YSL Beauty’s most iconic scents, makeup and skincare. The Edelweiss-design advent calendar embellished with a festive gold résille pattern holds favourites including Loveshine and Rouge Pur Couture The Slim lipsticks.

It also delivers the Libre EDP, as well as skin-loving treats from the Pure Shots and Or Rouge lines. The question is, do you keep them all for yourself or turn them into stunning stocking stuffers? YSL BEAUTY
