Following the sell-out success of their beauty advent calendar last year, Makeup Revolution’s advent calendar is back by popular demand for 2023. Considered one of the best budget beauty advent calendars, last year saw a waitlist of over 20,000 shoppers – and this year it’s expected to be even more popular.
The Makeup Revolution 25 Days of Glam Advent Calendar features 20 full size products alongside five minis for the festive season, with a pink theme that even Barbie would be envious of.
Priced at £48, all products are vegan and cruelty free and the packaging is 100 per cent recyclable. Their advent calendar was the best selling product in October, November and December last year, so this 2023 festive offering is expected to sell out quickly.
Jenny Fraser, Brand and Product Director at Revolution said: ‘’Move over Barbie…this year Revolution gift is PINKER and more glam than ever with perfect gifts for priceless moments.’ The development team predicted the “all-out pink” trend and this year we’re launching our pinkest advent calendar yet! With incredible products at amazing savings to our customers.
“We are also committed to developing sustainable gift options, ensuring our gifting packaging can be recycled or reused where possible. We have included recycling instructions on the packaging, allowing customers to easily recycle after Christmas.”
In this guide we’ll be sharing everything you need to know about the 2023 beauty advent calendar from Revolution , including how much it costs, where to buy and the full contents.

Everything inside the Makeup Revolution 25 Days of Glam Advent Calendar 2023 Is it worth it?
Last year, the Revolution Advent Calendar was £45 with a value of £94. This year, it’s just £3 more expensive than 2022’s offering, but has a value of £96, which feels like a very fair increase considering the cost of living and rate of inflation over the past 12 months.
This year, our reviews editor Stacey Dutton unboxed the contents, describing it as ‘a purchase for the girly girl who loves a makeup bag packed with essentials’.

She said: “The contents of this year’s calendar are worth double the whole calendar price- so the £48 festive buy doesn’t seem so weighty when considering the quality of the products inside. For £48 – I have managed to change up my everyday minimal makeup look with some really different products for me personally.
“I think that it has really made me have a play with different looks I would never usually go for. What works for me is, finding long wearing products which I don’t need to top up every half an hour when out and enjoying time with family and friends. The three products I have fell in love with would cost me approx £13 if bought separately – so in theory, I would only be paying an extra £24 for a palette (worth £5) and 21 other products- It’s definitely a worthy bargain I think.”
You can find Stacey’s favourite three products here in our review.
But don’t just take our word for it, year on year it receives a raft of positive reviews, with Rebecca N commenting: “I can’t wait for December! I snuck a peek into box 1, but managed to resist the rest.”
Tracy F added: “I have had a sneak peek at everything, this is for my 14 year old daughter and she is going to love it! Great value for money, new makeup everyday for 25 days! What’s not to love and this is also a great affordable brand.” While Alexandra D commented: “This is a gift from my husband to me. I have been wanting a beauty advent calendar for years and I’m so excited to have this one. I have had a sneaky look and it looks amazing. Great value for money compared to other calendars.”
It’s definitely one of our favourites for under £50.
