I come to you with breaking news in the world of beauty. The waitlist for the viral Charlotte Tilbury advent calendar is now officially live for 2025 — and we’re screaming with excitement about diving head-first into those bedazzled drawers come December.

More magical than ever before, this year’s beauty advent calendar – or treasure chest, as the brand more uniquely likes to coin their offering – boasts twelve makeup and skincare icons, five of which are full-size. It’s available to purchase online and in-stores from 12th September this year.

With one sold every minute on last year’s launch date? We definitely recommend joining the waitlist with haste, so you’re less likely to miss out.

Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Advent Calendar 2025

A long-standing Charlotte Tilbury fan, my first ever order from the brand consisted of a Pillow Talk lipstick and lip liner — plus one of the brand’s shimmery, wearable eyeshadow palettes. And when it comes to complexion, the Wonderglow primer is my go-to for a soft and dewy glow — while the brilliantly buildable and hydrating Beautiful Skin foundation (in shade 3 Neutral) helps me get a natural yet slightly fuller coverage look.

My next purchase on the suitably sparkly Charlotte Tilbury site? Darlings, it has to be the best-selling Charlotte Tilbury advent calendar. Filled with everything you need to look and feel like a star, it’s set to be one of the most highly-anticipated alternative advent calendars of the festive season.
