Who says you have to wait till Christmas morning to open presents? Not us. You can actually enjoy a gift several days in a row courtesy of this year's best beauty advent calendars.
They're great to both give and get. The only caveat is that you need to buy these babies now. Because nothing sells out faster this time of year than these covetable calendars. Plus, the receiver will need to receive the calendar almost a month before December 25 to truly enjoy the gift.
You also need to resist the urge to open all the doors or drawers at once. (Make sure your loved one doesn't sneak any peeks, either.) It's no fun ruining the surprises to come.
Prices can vary widely. You have to plop down $780 for Sisley Paris' collection. Or part with $75 for Voluspa's candle-centric set.
Here are the season's best beauty advent calendars.
