Beauty advent calendars are a high-end staple of the festive period and, while it might seem premature to be getting excited about them now, it’s a well-known fact that the most popular ones fly off the shelves long before December. Joining the line-up this year – alongside offerings from The White Company , Sephora and Liberty – is Selfridges, which has just opened the waitlist for its 2023 advent calendar. Just like the luxury department store’s beauty halls, its beauty bundle is always packed with premium products, with brands such as Refy , Charlotte Tilbury , Augustinus Bader and Dr Barbara Sturm all making an appearance. Unlike most beauty advent calendars, this one goes above and beyond the traditional 25-day countdown with 33 products ready for you to unwrap. While it is certainly an investment at £220, it’s actually worth a whopping £1,094. Keep scrolling for everything that we know so far, including the full contents list of the calendar and when and where you can buy it.
