For some years now, the humble chocolate advent has been making way for beauty versions bursting with skincare, haircare, perfume and makeup miniatures (as well as some full-size surprises).

The past few Christmases in particular have seen beauty brands like Lush, Jo Malone, Cult Beauty and Feelunique battle it out to serve up the best value for money (not to mention the most Instagram-worthy) beauty advent calendars — and this year is shaping up to be one of the most impressive yet.

Including all of the cult brands you love and more, here are the best beauty advent calendars to shop for Christmas 2022, whether you're treating yourself (in which case, well deserved) or a loved one.
