In case you missed it, the biggest beauty retailers are unveiling new beauty deals on their December advent calendars. If you're haven't heard of an "advent calendar" before, it's basically a special calendar counting down the days leading up to Christmas and on each day, a new item is revealed. So it keeps a bit of mystery and surprise and you can't see all the incredible deals at once.

So here's Sephora's and Ulta's beauty advent calendars.

SEPHORA'S MERRY MYSTERIES:

Sephora's advent calendar is for 16 days and is unveiling a new deal each day. Use code MERRY16 at checkout (with any $25 purchase) to pickup the deluxe sized freebie for that day. This is only for Beauty Insiders, so make sure you're signed up - it's free!

ULTA'S HOLIDAY BEAUTY BLITZ:

Ulta's advent calendar is going for 25 days and they're also unveiling a new deal each day. But what's different about Ulta is that you get to unwrap the deals with each new week so you get a peek at the deals so you don't get FOMO over them. These deals are for open to all so you don't need to sign up or don't need any special codes at checkout. The markdowns are also on full sized products which we love! For example, tomorrow, they're having 40% off BareMinerals Holiday Kits and we can already see deals happening in the next few days, like the Benefit BROWVO! Conditioning Eyebrow Primer is 50% off!

Either way, both retailers are giving us great deals and something to look forward to while we check off items from our holiday checklists.
