Many beauty lovers know about beauty advent calendars that come out every year in the Fall time and sell out quickly. However, do you know about cruelty-free beauty advent calendars 2021? I decided to do in-depth research on the best cruelty-free advent calendars of makeup, skincare, and fragrances.
I was not expecting to find as many cruelty-free beauty advent calendar options as I did. However, I noticed that most of these cruelty-free beauty advent calendars are luxurious and more expensive! In conclusion, I realized that there are no beauty retailers that would only sell cruelty-free brands. I think that also affected the price and advent calendar options. Many beauty advent calendars are usually made by retailers with different brands included, which makes the price lower.
What cruelty-free advent calendar are you going to buy? However, be fast because they sell out quickly. The blog post includes affiliate links that help me provide you with free content.
Are beauty advent calendars worth it?
Each person itself can answer if advent beauty calendars are worth their budget, or not! Firstly, beauty advent calendars are great to try out luxury skincare and makeup products without paying for the full-size product and know if these products are for you. Secondly, I like to have small-sized products for when I travel and have weekend getaways. Thirdly, beauty calendars can make the whole Christmas waiting season more exciting.

NYX Gimme superstar holiday advent calendar
The most famous affordable cruelty-free brand is NYX. NYX each year comes out with a new advent calendar, and they are always very affordable. The advent calendar is for 24 days leading to Christmas. This year NYX packaging is red and gold, very Christmas-y and luxury-looking. I would suggest the advent calendar if you love their lip products as I do.
The body shop Share the joy
The body shop is another cruelty-free brand that I shop from frequently. I had their advent calendars many years ago. The brand is well known for body butter and shower products. Therefore I love The body shop advent calendars because their travel-size products are perfect for trips and getaways. However, if this advent calendar is not for you, the brand has two more expensive options. In conclusion, also this advent calendar has 24 treats.
Yankee candles advent tree
Are you a candle “Yankee” like I am, especially during the Fall and winter season? Then you need to get yourself the Yankee candles advent tree, I mean calendar! A beautiful Christmas tree design for your room hides beautifully scented candles each day! 24 candles for 24 days up to Christmas. Candles usually do not ask for testing on animals. However, for people that do not know, strong fragrances can be very dangerous for animals! Cruelty-free beauty advent calendars 2021 had to include a candle calendar.

Rituals advent calendar
One of my favorite shower gel brands is Rituals. Since I tried their foam shower gels, I have not looked back! However, I have tried a few other products that I love as well! The advent calendar includes 24 treats. Not only that, the advent calendar itself is the whole vibe- it looks like a snowy Christmas village with pre-lit houses.
The body shop Share the love
The second advent calendar has 25 days of products- a few of them are full size! Even the design is so beautiful and would look great n your counter. The brand is proud of its pop-up design and head-to-toe products that will let you pamper yourself completely!
The body shop Share love and joy
Share love and joy is the ultimate advent calendar of The body shop. The calendar has the same pop-up design, but instead of the calendar being in red, it is in a green shade. The calendar has 25 products and a lot more full-size products to pamper yourself!

Molton Brown advent calendar
Molton Brown brand is new for me- I have not heard about it before. I think it is more known in the UK. The brand is known for its fragrances and body products. The advent calendar Is made in green and gold, very luxurious, and can be re-used the next year (for example, for your kids, just put chocolate in boxes of the calendar)
The white company advent calendar
I have heard the best things about The white company products. However, I have not had the opportunity to try their products out yet. The advent calendar has beautiful, light, and white packaging and consists of 25 hair and body products.
Dr. Barbara Sturm skincare advent calendar
Another new brand for me is Dr. Barbara Sturm. However, I am glad to discover new cruelty-free brands. The advent calendar consists of 24 luxury skincare products. Her inspiration for the design came from her mother.
Charlottes Tilbury beauty dreams and secrets
My favorite advent calendar that I would love to have is Charlottes Tilbury beauty dreams and secrets advent calendar. The calendar consists of 12 makeup and skincare products (3 are full-size, nine are travel-sized).
Lush advent calendar
Lush always reminds me of Christmas, and I shopped from Lush only around the holiday season. The brand has the best and most unique bath bombs. Lush also has high-quality face masks, hair products, and shower gels! The advent calendar has 25 great products, and the price is high as you mostly get full-size products that you would usually buy at the store. Lush has my heart, no doubt.
Chantecaille advent calendar Botanical beauty holiday box
Chantecaille is one of the rare advent calendars that only holds 12 products. I do prefer full 24-25 day advent calendars, especially for the price. However, the advent calendar has a few good full-size products. In general, I would be so happy to try out the brand because of the luxury packaging and high quality.
Susanne Kaufmann luxury skincare advent calendar
Last but not least is Susanne Kaufmann with her advent calendar. The calendar hides 25 days of luxury skincare in plastic-free packaging. Four of the products are full size, but the other ones are minis. The advent calendar is in simple red packaging, which can be used next year if you want to.
Which of these cruelty-free beauty advent calendars 2021 caught your eyes? I cannot tell you my favorite, because I am very excited about all of them. However, I would be happy to have the Rituals, NYX, LUSH, The body shop, and Charlottes Tilbury calendars. In conclusion, I would be happy to own any of these calendars. I have never had candles in my advent calendar. Therefore, that would be exciting to have as well! Have a great Fall and winter time!
