There are several beauty Advent calendars available, each with its own unique products and price point. Here's a brief summary of some of the calendars mentioned in the article:

1. **Cult Beauty Advent Calendar**: This calendar has 34 products with a total value of £1,100, making it a good option for those looking to try new products.
2. **Bamford Bamford Luxe Candle Gift Advent Calendar**: This calendar is designed for those who want to indulge in luxury and features 13 full-size products, including candles, oils, and bath salts. The price point is around £300.

When considering whether beauty Advent calendars are worth it, it depends on your individual needs and budget. If you're looking to try new products or refresh your routine, a mixed calendar like Cult Beauty might be a good option. However, if you have a set routine that works, a scent-based or body-care Advent calendar might be more suitable.

Ultimately, the amount you should expect to spend on an Advent calendar varies depending on the brand and quality of products. High-end calendars from exclusive brands can cost upwards of £200-£500, while more affordable options like Wet n Wild or Cult Beauty might be around £150-£240.
 
🤕 another year, another flood of new beauty advent calendars hitting our shelves 🚨 think about all the people who are gonna get stuck with a bunch of products they'll never use because their routine is solid 💁‍♀️ or they're just not feeling it this year 🙅‍♂️ plus, have you seen the prices? some of these things are like 3-4 months' worth of rent 🤑 and for what? a few full-size products from some brand we've never heard of before 🤷‍♀️
 
Ugh I dont get why they got so many calendars out now 🤯... back in my day we just had one calendar and it was always the same old stuff. Now you got all these different ones with different prices and whatnot. I mean, if you wanna try new things that's fine but £300 for a candle? No thanks 😂... I would go for Wet n Wild or Lush they're more my vibe 💄... And 34 products in one calendar? That just seems like too much to me 🤯
 
omg u gotta try out this cult beauty advent calender lol it has so many high end brands and the value is insane!!! i mean like who needs a full size skincare set from diptyque when u can get a whole bunch of stuff for half the price 🤑 plus its just 300 bucks which is a steal considering what u get!
 
I'm loving this year's beauty Advent calendars! So many cool products to try 🎁 I think a good one should have a mix of newbies and faves, you know? The Lush calendar looks super affordable but still has some awesome skincare goodies 💆‍♀️. Wet n Wild is like the ultimate budget-friendly option 🤑. What's your fave thing about beauty Advent calendars? 😊
 
omg i just got my hands on the cult beauty advent calender 🤩 and it's literally my fave so far! i love how they have a mix of high end and budget friendly brands, its perfect for students like me who wanna try new skincare and makeup products without breaking the bank 💸. but honestly tho, £1100 is kinda steep even for an advent calender lol 💁‍♀️
 
ugh why do ppl need a whole month of beauty stuff? cant they just get whatever they need whenever lol but seriously its all about what u want and how much u r willin to spend... the luxe ones are def worth it if ur lookin 2 indulge, but like £300+ is kinda steep for me
 
I'm not sold on these pricey beauty Advent calendars 🤑. £300 for a candle gift calendar? That's just a fancy way of saying you're throwing money at a bunch of overpriced products that'll probably get used up in like 2 months. And what about the value? Is it really worth £399 for Diptyque's stuff when I can just buy their individual products and save some cash? 🤑

And don't even get me started on the Wet n Wild calendar. £240 for 34 products is a total rip-off if you ask me. Those are probably just cheap duplicates of high-end products. I mean, what's the difference between a £1 Wet n Wild product and a £10 luxury brand product? 🤔

I'd rather stick to my affordable faves like Lush or Burt's Bees. At least those brands have some real value behind their products. The Advent calendar just seems like a marketing gimmick to me 📦.
 
I'm so over these beauty advent calendars 🤯! I mean, who really needs a whole bunch of random products just to try them out? For me, it's all about investing in a few high-quality faves that'll last the year 😊. That being said, if you're on a budget or want to mix things up, I guess they can be fun 🎉. But let's be real, the ones that are gonna break the bank (aka Diptyque) are just gonna sit there collecting dust... 👀
 
omg i got the cult beauty advent calender last year and its literally been a game changer for me 💖 i had so many new products to try out and it was super fun not having to decide between them every month 😂 now im tempted to get the wet n wild one this year tho its like £50 less lol what do u guys think is the most worth it price point? 🤔
 
🤔 just saw this thread about beauty advent calendars... think they're overpriced honestly? I mean £399 for a Diptyque calendar is just crazy 😅 but at the same time, who doesn't love trying new products and getting a bunch of full-size goodies? 🎁 i think it's all about knowing your budget and what you need from an advent calendar. if you're looking to mix things up and try new stuff, maybe one like Cult Beauty is a good investment. but if you're set on something specific (like Diptyque), that's more understandable... still worth the splurge for some people, imo 💁‍♀️
 
Advent calendars got me all hyped this year 🎅🏻 I mean, who doesn't love unwrapping a new skincare product or perfume every day? I've been checking out these beauty calendars and I gotta say, they're pretty great value for the price. If you're someone like me who's always on the lookout for new faves to add to your routine, a mixed calendar is a no-brainer. But if you're more of a "I know what works for me" kinda person, then maybe one that focuses on scents or body care is the way to go.

Personally, I've been eyeing the Diptyque calendar – their products are always so luxurious and high-quality 🌿. And at £399, it's not too bad considering you get 25 full-size products. But hey, if you're looking for something more budget-friendly, Wet n Wild is definitely a great option.

Ultimately, it's all about what you want to get out of your Advent calendar. If you're feeling festive and wanna treat yourself to some new goodies, then go for it! 🎁 Just make sure to set a budget and stick to it, or you might end up with a few more products than you bargained for 😉
 
🤔 I think beauty advent calendars are a bit overrated tbh... they're just a way to convince us we need more stuff 🛍️. Like, do we really need 34 products in one calendar? It's like they're trying to break the bank 💸. But at the same time, it's hard to resist all those cute little packets and samples 🎁. I mean, if you're someone who likes to try new things or refresh your routine, go for it! 🤗 Just don't expect me to spend £300 on candles every year 😂.
 
I'm still deciding whether to get myself one... I mean, I love trying out new skincare and makeup products, but at the same time, £300 for a candle gift calendar? it's just a bit too much for me. I think Wet n Wild or Lush are good options if you're on a tighter budget, but Cult Beauty is a bit of a splurge for me... 🤔
 
🤔🎁 I think some ppl get it wrong 🙄 when they buy these advent calendars...it's not just about getting a lot of stuff 🛍️, but also about trying new faves 💖! If you have a routine that works, why change? 🤷‍♀️ For me, it's all about mixing & matching products to find what makes me happy 😊. Some ppl might say £100+ is too much 💸, but for others, it's worth it 💅🏻. I think the most important thing is finding a calendar that speaks to you 🎉!
