Glossybox Beauty Advent Calendar 2024
Glossybox has opened its virtual doors to shoppers who want to sign up to join the waitlist and stay in the know about the Glossybox Beauty Advent Calendar 2024.
At the time of writing this, Glossybox has kept the price, how much the total worth of the beauty products inside, as well as the general sale date will be, which is why it is crucial to join the waitlist to stay in the know.
What I do know is Glossybox subscribers, who pay a monthly or yearly subscription to receive a box of delights straight to their door, will be eligible for priority access when the official sale launches.

Plus, subscribers will also be eligible for a £10 discount on limited edition boxes too, which means an even bigger saving.
Non-subscribers will pay full price, and will only be able to shop the Glossybox Advent Calendar 2024 when it goes on general sale two days after the pre-sale for subscribers.
Over the years I have been fortunate enough to get my hands on the Glossybox Beauty Advent Calendar, and it always impresses me with its array of beauty products inside, so I know it is worth the wait.
Shoppers do not have to sign up to be a subscriber, but if you choose to, which I strongly recommend you do if you want to save even more and be in with more of a chance of securing the goods, there are numerous subscription options to choose from.
Glossybox offers shoppers a monthly subscription at £13.50, a 12-month plan to pay monthly at £12.50, a three-month plan that requires a three-month upfront cost of £39, a six-month pay upfront plan at £75, or a 12-month upfront plan at £138.
With the subscriptions you pay the fee and receive your Glossybox bundle, which contains five beauty products from a variety of brands, inside, straight to your door.
But for limited edition bundles, such as the Glossybox Advent Calendar you will need to pay for the box, which will be at a reduced fee for those subscribers.
Glossybox has remained tightlipped about the contents of this years advent calendar, which joins an extensive line up of advent calendars, across advent calendars for women and luxury advent calendars, all of which will make the countdown to Christmas even more indulgent, and glamorous.
But the waitlist for this bundle comes shortly after Lookfantastic, Harrods and Charlotte Tilbury opened their waitlist to pre-order the advent calendars for this year.
In previous years the Glossybox advent has retailed for £70 for subscribers, and £80 for non-subscribers, and has contained close to £500 worth of products inside. So, I expect big things once again.
As soon as I know more, I will update you. For now, this is everything I know about the Glossybox Beauty Advent Calendar 2024 so far.
When does the Glossybox advent calendar go on sale?
Glossybox has only just announced it is bringing back the popular beauty advent calendar for 2024, and has officially launched a waitlist to allow shoppers to sign up and be alerted as to when it will drop.
Glossybox has remained very hush hush about the contents, and official launch date for this year's beauty advent calendar.
What I do know is Glossybox subscribers will gain priority access to shop the advent calendar two days before non-subscribers.
It is super easy to sign up, and you can do so at any point, which I recommend doing if you don't want to miss out on the bundle, and want to save more. All you have to do is enter your email address.
If previous years are anything to go by, Glossybox has typically opened the general sale at the end of September.
Last year Glossybox subscribers gained early access to purchase the bundle on 27th September, while non-subscribers had to wait until 9am on 29th September.
As soon as I know the official general sale dates, I will update you.
What's inside the Glossybox advent calendar 2024?
Glossybox beauty advent calendar 2024 is expected to be released very soon.
Although it is not available to shop online just yet, customers can sign up to join the waitlist to be alerted to when the calendar does officially drop.
Glossybox has remained tight lipped over this year's calendar, but what the website has teased is this year's advent will contain 25 products across haircare, bodycare and make-up cosmetics.
There is no doubt Glossybox will include some of the bestselling products, as well as viral items that have been trending in this year's bundle. But exactly which items remains to be seen.
In 2023 the Glossybox beauty advent calendar contained 28 products, including three duo drawers to house extra treats behind the door.
Out of the 28 products, 17 were full size, while 11 were deluxe size, and it included big brands such as Floral Street, Batiste, Medik8, ESPA, Grow Gorgeous, Color Wow, and many more labels I love.
How much is the Glossybox advent calendar?
Glossybox really has made this year's advent calendar top secret, as it has yet to reveal the price, or what the contents is worth.
If advent calendars in general are anything to go by, I anticipate the advent calendar will include hundreds of pounds worth of beauty products, which will be available to shop for a fraction of the price.
Though what those exact figures will look like for this year's Christmas countdown is unknown.
In previous years the Glossybox advent calendar has been priced at £99 but was worth a huge £443, while a separate occasion it was reduced to £70 for subscribers and £80 for non-subscribers yet the contents totalled over £473.
How do beauty advent calendars work?
Advent calendars come in all shapes, sizes and contents, from beauty-filled design, more specific fragrance bundles, to food, chocolate, even jewellery advent calendars.
Advent calendars are essentially a countdown to Christmas with miniature doors, or drawers, with a treat waiting behind every door.
In most cases there may be a 25-day or 24-day calendar, which means there will be one gift behind every door to open on that specific date. To keep track each door is numbered, so you can monitor which ones have been opened, and keep track of the days - after all, the Christmas period can get a little hazy for everyone.
Some advent calendars may be a 12-door advent, which means a door is to be opened every other day from the start of December until Christmas Eve, or Christmas Day.
Are beauty advent calendars worth it?
Beauty advent calendars range in price, but often retail for a fraction of the price in comparison to the total value of the contents inside.
With this in mind, I think they are worth the money, as shoppers are saving regardless.
However, prices for beauty advent calendars can span anywhere from £25 up to £250 - if not more. So, it is important to spend within your means and budget.
Ultimately deciding on whether a beauty advent calendar is worth it is down to each individual, and it is always worth considering the price of the advent calendar too, especially if the purse strings are tight - let's face it, around Christmas they often are.

However, if a beauty brand has launched an advent calendar that is a fraction of the total contents price, and has an extra discount eligible for subscribers or new customers, I think it is definitely worth it.
Guiltily I have repurposed some items in the bundle as a gift, which can also save you more when buying Christmas presents, or after.
