October, otherwise known as beauty advent calendar season, has arrived. From Selfridges, Harvey Nichols and Liberty to M&S, Sephora and Boots, this year’s opulent offerings are sure to be big hits once again.

Selling out each year since debuting in 2019, Space NK’s calendar is a firm favourite among beauty buffs – and (spoiler) this year’s could be the brand’s best yet. Costing £235 but with an overall worth of more than £1,000, the store’s beauty advent calendar for 2023 is brimming with luxury treats and beauty staples.

The 25-day countdown reveals 33 products from desirable names, including Augustinus Bader, Olaplex, Charlotte Tilbury, Hourglass, Rare Beauty, Dr Barbara Sturm and many more. With 19 of the products being full-size, you’re really getting your beauty bang for your buck.

From party make-up essentials (think Rare Beauty’s matte liquid liner and Charlotte Tilbury’s brighter eyes palette) to pampering products such as Farmacy’s cleansing balm, 111Skins gold eye masks, Summer Fridays’ jet lag mask and Augustinus Bader’s the rich cream, your December is sure to be indulgent.
