If you are finding it difficult to choose a Beauty Advent Calendar for 2020, then perhaps temptation can sneak in with one of these Beauty Crackers or Baubles which are capturing my attention already!  For the past few years I have featured Baubles and Crackers on my blog and they are always such fun to write.

HARVEY NICHOLS Men's Must Haves

This is a hamper for the man in your life and admittedly it is pretty good! I have already posted a list of Male Advent Calendars on my blog and seemingly there are more every year, but still not as many as us girls get. Anyway, Harvey Nichols have put together a rather fabulous looking Men's Must Haves.
It will be on sale very soon and priced at £165* which, again when you see the contents, it works out to be a pretty good price. Described as being a Must Have Hamper whether "he’s already a skincare savant or just in need of a little nudge" and it boasts some hand-picked grooming gifts in an array of effective and easy-to-use essentials he’ll love.

Packaged inside a sleek black presentation box, like the hampers I shared previously here and here, it also has the Harvey Nichols name written in silver lettering. As for the contents of the box, I have shared them below.

Contents:

  • Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream 30ml
  • Tom Ford For Men Eye Treatment
  • Le Labo The Noir Shower Gel
  • Elemis Ice Cool Foaming Shave Gel
  • Dr Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Extra Strength Peel - 5 Applications
What I like about this Must Have gift box is that the number of products has been kept to a minimum and isn't something he will open and think 'how many products do I need to use' which some of my male friends would absolutely say. Instead, this is a nice little introduction to skincare which is easy to follow and is not too onerous on time.

Harvey Nichols Let It Glow Beauty Hamper

If the Harvey Nichols Beauty Lovers Hamper, which I shared on my blog a little earlier today is a little bit outside of your budget, then at less than half the price, there is an alternative - the Let It Glow Beauty Hamper which is right here*.
Harvey Nichols Let It Glow Beauty Hamper
Described as being perfect for the 'savvy skincare lover', this Let It Glow Hamper has been expertly curated and a collection of products has been chosen to keep your complexion looking healthy and radiant right through to the new year.

Again, as with the Beauty Lovers Hamper, this one comes packaged inside a black wicker basket with Harvey Nichols emblazoned on the front in silver lettering to give it that pure luxe feel.  Inside there is a whole host of products to create that skincare routine from some amazing brands.

Contents:

  • Emma Hardie Cleansing Cloths - set of 3
  • Sarah Chapman Ultimate Cleanse 100ml
  • Sunday Riley C.E.O. Glow Face Oil 35ml
  • MZ Skin Tone & Lift Facial Toner
  • Elemis Superfood Glow Priming Moisturiser 60ml
This Let It Glow Beauty Hamper will go on sale for £160* and you can find it right here, it would make a great treat for yourself or a gift for that beauty lover in your life!

Beauty Lovers Hamper by Harvey Nichols

Harvey Nichols has a pretty impressive Beauty Hall if you haven't ever seen it, packed full of the most amazing brands and counters. Alongside the amazing Gift With Purchase last month, they now have a whole host of Beauty Gifts on sale, including this Beauty Lovers Hamper which is coming to Harvey Nichols soon.
Beauty Lovers Hamper by Harvey Nichols
Every Christmas I buy a Harvey Nichols Hamper* for someone in my office, usually tea related as she is a huge fan, for my a hamper is a pretty easy gift to give because it ticks a lot of boxes and makes present buying that little bit easier. This Beauty Hamper, which is described as being ultra-luxe and pure beauty decadence, is packed full of amazing brands in this incredible black monogrammed wicker basket and to top it all off, it comes with a bottle of Harvey Nichols Champagne, which I think is a really nice touch.

It will go on sale here* for £330 and when you consider the contents, it is pretty good value for money!

Contents

  • La Mer Moisturizing Soft Cream 30ml
  • Huda Lip Contour Pencil in Bombshell
  • Nars Climax Mascara
  • Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Crayon in Blacquer
  • Fenty Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer in Fenty Glow
  • Hourglass Lash Curler
  • Larry King A Social Life For Your Hair 30ml
  • Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in Luminous Flush
  • 111 Skin Celestial Black Diamond Eye Mask
  • 111 Skin Rose Gold Eye Mask
  • 111 Skin Sub Zero Eye Mask
  • Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow Liquid Eyeshadow in Rose Gold Retro
  • Premier Cru Brut Champagne NV (Contains sulphites and alcohol)
As you can see, this hamper contains some absolute classic products such as the Moisturising Soft Cream from La Mer, which on its own costs £130 and the Champagne is £30, so the price soon starts to add up.  I was hoping to find a Harvey Nichols Advent Calendar for 2020, it always surprises me when there isn't one given the success of their beauty hall.  But this Hamper is just as amazing as some of the calendars on sale.

Priced at £330, it will go on sale here soon.

Zoeva Share your Radiance Brush Vault Advent Calendar 2020

Packaged inside a beautifully bright burgundy circular box, which has a bit of a glitter too, it features 12 of the bestselling face and eye brushes, this set literally has everything you need to apply, buff, and blend and this set is the perfect for everything, whether you are new to the discovery of makeup to a seasoned pro at applying it.  

On offer for £78* it is such a good price, the 104 Buffer Brush, which I use a lot costs £17 on its own and then then the 106 Powder Brush is around £15, so for 12 brushes packaged in a beautiful box, it is a must-have for any fan.

DIOR BEAUTY ADVENT CALENDAR 2020

When an Advent Calendar has the wow factor, then Dior are well and truly ticking that box for 2020 because this one is just absolutely stunning.
DIOR BEAUTY ADVENT CALENDAR 2020
Behind each of the 24 calendar doors lies a Dior treat to count down the days of December and of course, anything Dior is bound to be a treat! The theme behind the calendar comes from Artist and illustrator Safia Ouares. Safia has created an Advent Calendar which is said to be like an enchanted night with dancing stars and gold dust. An illuminated deer prances above the Paris rooftops, as the most marvellous ballet takes place in front of the workshop doors, piled high with gifts. Simply beautiful!

This Advent Calendar is on sale right now for £340 and if you don't want to know what is inside then don't scroll any further because all has been revealed!
