For many Brits, the return of advent calendar season means making the difficult choice between various brands of chocolate. However, for those who go in for all things skin, the rapid approach of December 1st can mean only one thing: the decision on which beauty advent calendar to buy.
While opening the little cardboard door to an edible treat is one of December’s small pleasures, adding a new product to your self-care collection on a daily basis can provide a festive thrill like no other. This year, K-beauty marketplace STYLEVANA have raised the stakes with their “25 Days of Bliss” Advent Calendar. With limited numbers available to purchase from October 7th, we’ve delved behind the colourful doors to find out exactly what this cosmetic countdown has in store.
25 days of K-beauty bliss
First things first, let’s take a moment to appreciate just how beautiful the STYLEVANA Advent Calendar 2024 is. With its baby pink exterior and complementary pinks, golds and greens on the inside, this calendar has the wow-factor before you even peek behind the first door.
Once it has pride of place in your Christmas display, you’ll have to resist the temptation to skip ahead of the allotted door in pursuit of your next skin treat. And it’s not just incredible skincare you’ll find tucked away in this beautifully presented box. As you work your way through the countdown, you’ll uncover a selection of skincare, makeup, and haircare treasures from trending and top selling K-beauty brands, including medicube, Round Lab, and Haruharu WONDER. We love how STYLEVANA have divided the calendar into three key themes: Day Routine, Evening Make-up and Night Care, so you’ll have everything you need to look your best from AM to PM.
A Christmas skincare miracle
As the big day approaches and the magic of the festive season ramps up, you’ll be hard-pressed to get through the day without watching a film or hearing a song about some kind of Christmas miracle. Promising magic all year round is the 30 Days Miracle Toner from pure beauty brand Some by Mi. Infused with AHA to slough away dead skin cells, BHA to remove excess sebum, and PHA to prevent moisture loss, you’ll find this multi-tasking toner behind one of the bigger doors in STYLEVANA’s calendar.
Those who struggle with dark spots will love Haruharu’s WONDER Centella 4% TXA Dark Spot Go Away Serum. Designed for all skin types, this serum uses Tranexmic Acid (TXA) to reduce the appearance of dark spots while Vitamin C and Centella soothes the skin while maintaining its glow. Use it throughout December, but be prepared to go back for more – because great skincare isn’t just for Christmas – it’s for life.

Get glowing this party season
If there is one time of year when a little bit of sparkle is absolutely essential, it’s the Christmas party season. To make sure every glitzy outfit is accompanied by a radiant glow, STYLEVANA have hidden some serious glow-getters behind some of their calendar doors.
Key to that sought-after healthy radiance is, of course, exfoliation. The Axis-Y PHA Resurfacing Glow Peel gently exfoliates and clears pores without irritating the skin. To give your party make-up a strong start, apply a few drops of Round Lab’s Birch Juice Moisturising Sun Cream SPF 50+ before foundation. Formulated with birch sap, this moisturising toner can help improve your skins texture while keeping it hydrated and protected from harmful UV rays.
Once your base is sorted, it’s time to move on to the festive show-stopper: glittery eyes. With the STYLEVANA Advent Calendar 2024, you’ll get your hands on a gorgeous eye-shadow duo from Korean beauty brand The Saem. Combining a pretty base colour with a soft, pigmented sparkly shadow, this pocket-sized pallet is ideal for popping into your clutch bag for a quick top-up mid-party.
