Sephora is one of my go-to beauty retailers and its advent calendar – or as was the case in 2022, choice of THREE advent calendars – is a guaranteed sell out.
The HELLO! Shopping team have been writing about advent calendars for years now, and while it’s a busy one advent calendars are one of our favourites to shop, and beauty advent calendars top our personal wish lists every year.
There’s nothing like a daily beauty treat to count down to the big day during the festive season, and the 2023 Sephora UK beauty advent calendar is absolutely chock full of treats this year.
While it’s a 24-day calendar, it’s actually filled with three dozen products, and don’t worry about being disappointed with a million tiny sample sized gifts. This Christmas countdown includes 23 full-sized treats!
Worth a whopping £1000 and packaged in a festive orange double-tiered box, the £189 gift includes Sephora’s pick of top beauty brands that you know and love - or maybe just always wanted to try.
Without giving too much away (yet - keep scrolling if you want more spoilers), I can tell you that you’ll find a whole array of celebrity-approved brands inside, including Holly Willoughby favourite Elemis, Nicole Kidman’s hair loss brand Vegamour and Hailey Bieber-loved Drunk Elephant.
There’s everything from body wash and scrubs, to nail polish, lipstick, home fragrance and hair care favourites from exclusive beauty brands like Tarte, Sarah Chapman, Philip Kingsley, Sol de Janeiro and Kate Somerville.
The wait list is currently open, and Sephora UK is giving away five of the advent calendars – just join the waitlist for your chance.

Our verdict on the Sephora UK 2023 beauty advent calendar
We see a lot of beauty advent calendars every year, and with a great mix of beauty products from the most exclusive luxury skincare to celebrity brands like Fenty and Rare Beauty to TikTok viral treats, Sephora's festive offering is a winner.
We also love that all the beauty gifts are literally from head to toe, with a wide range of product types from hair care to tanning serum and even a candle.
Plus, there are so many full-sized products included, and on top of that it's priced at less than £200 with a value over £1,000!
Essentially we think the Sephora beauty advent calendar is worth the money, whether these are products you just want to try, or you spot some favourites that are already in your beauty bag.
