Check out the 10 best beauty advent calendars of the year

The holidays are a time of giving, so why not make sure you're treating yourself, too? Advent calendars are traditionally used to count down the days leading up to Christmas, often offering a special mini treat with each passing date. But given that so many people feel festive this time of year, regardless of their beliefs or how they choose to celebrate, everyone can get in on the Advent calendar fun—and brands know it.

There are plenty of different types of these interactive products available—including one full of healthy treats for your dog, thanks to Trader Joe's. When it comes to fun choices for beauty buffs though, the options are practically endless.

There's a fancy candle-filled calendar from Diptyque that will literally burn away all of your stress and anxiety, and an option from Susanne Kaufmann that has all the self-care essentials you could ever need—muscle release oil, included.

Whatever you need in the beauty department—whether that's a conditioning hair mask or a new shimmery gold eye shadow for your upcoming holiday party—these Advent calendars have your back, and then some. There's a fancy candle-filled edition from Diptyque that will literally burn away your stress and anxiety; an option from Susanne Kaufmann that has all the self-care essentials you could ever want, including some muscle-release oil to help banish post-workout soreness; and, of course, Sephora's calendar that features lip stain and sudsy bath bombs alike.

Basically, there's nothing better than getting to open up little beauty-focused gifts every day—and there's absolutely no shame in grabbing more than one. The only real struggle here? Not cheating and taking a peek at the treats ahead of schedule.
