(Gifted) OMG, I’ve been sent Mad Beauty Advent Calendars!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I first found out I was going to have the opportunity to feature not one but two beauty advent calendars I was over the moon. A more precise description would be, I was like a puppy with a new toy. I couldn’t wait for them to arrive. I’ve never had the fortune to feature beauty advent calendars for my blog before although I have featured a range of beauty products. There are two different calendars that we will be looking at here. In addition, something to get you all excited!!!! I will be hosting a competition for one of the men’s and one of the women’s Mad Beauty Advent Calendars. Mad Beauty will send them out once the winner is drawn.
First, let’s take a look at these calendars and see why you want one.
MAD Beauty Men’s 12 Days Advent
This calendar is suitable for teens and adults. For the first 12 days of December, they can enjoy a different useful treat each day.
The set includes a Flannel, Body Wash 2 x 30ml, Comb, Foot Cream 25ml, Bath Salts 2 x 50g, Vanilla Lip Balm 4g, Hand Cream 25ml, Aftershave Balm 25ml, Soap Bar 30g and Body Puff.

It’s perfect for a teen or adult and has some great products that are just the right size to fit into a small makeup bag and not weigh you down when out and about.
Pin It!
I’ve been careful not to show you everything so you won’t know colours etc so it’ll be a surprise when you open each door.

fabulous advent calendar, so many great items in each day. Great for every teenage girl and women – something for everyone 🙂
There certainly is something for everyone.
I love the way your pages don’t get covered over by ads its so off putting when you are half way through reading and an ad pops up in the way
These would be great for my daughter and son in law . Thanks for the chance
I’m sure they’d love them.
These advent calendars look amazing, I love the fact it gives you chance to try out lots of new cosmetics.
Me too. It’s exciting to discover new products!!!
I love all the grown up Advent Calendars that are available now and the ones in your post look wonderful!
They do don’t they! Great to have options other than chocolate.
this would be a perfect gift for my daughter
I’m sure she’d love this!
would be great to win a his and hers calender never seen one before, have bought teen grandchildren beauty ones so would be nice for us to have one (don’t think anyone will buy us one)
It would make a lovely treat!!
There’s lots of thing both my wife and I would like.
They are good calendars, plenty in there!
I think these look like proper adult advent calendars
They sure do Claire.
I have always wanted to treat myself to a beauty Advent but have no idea which one to buy. Its surprising how many different types there are to choose from, the calender mentioned in your blog sounds very nice
Fantastic advent 🙂
Thank you so much for your piece on what to buy the men in your life! It can’t be only me, but I find them SO hard to buy for – you can’t keep buying their favourite aftershave each Xmas, can you? The Burberry scarf is an inspired idea! Essential in Winter but super stylish too. Have also made a note of the sunglasses and wireless headphones, but really like the idea of gifting a chef too. Well done you!
Ha, no. There is only so much aftershave one man can wear. The scarf is a lovely gift and popular too!!!
This is a lovely prize and would love to win
Who doesn’t love an advent calendar!!!
It is so exciting to build up the anticipation as Christmas approaches and how better to do that than have advent calendars
It is perfect for that. I love it when everyone is in the Christmas spirit at home.
I love the fact that theres a woman’s and a mans to choose from, we all know some men are worse than women with there skin regime lol. They both look amazing and full of useful every day treats. There is definitely something for everyone with these.
I love the mad beauty one! X
They’re pretty fantastic aren’t they!!!
It’s so nice to see a beauty advent for men! 🙂
It sure is. I wanted to include both as I know I have male readers too x
I have to admit I didn’t know Mad Beauty had an advent coming out this year – love the sound the of it.
Neither did I until a week or so ago. Looks great doesn’t it!!!
Love being able to read a review of advent calendars and see the actual products before purchasing. Makes it all the more exciting too !
It’s good to see what you are paying for. Sometimes a surprise can be disapointing. This way you avoid that.
How exciting, love opening new windows each day to find exciting goodies to try
I know!!!! We all need one!!!
Wow beautiful calenders would love to get one x
Wow. I’d be over the moon with one of these. Good luck everyone.
Both these calendars sound splendid with so many lovely things inside. It is so good to have such a nice calendar for men.
It sure is good to have a male option.
I have never seen a beauty advent calendar for men before and it would suit my boys. I like the sound of the contents of it too.
Me too!!! It’s a great addition to the Christmas calendar options available.
These look great , perfect for me and my husband
I have never had an adult advent calendar so this would be a lovely treat.
These look great don’t they!!!
Ooh been looking for a nice advent calender and hadn’t even seen this one.
Now you have. It is a fun idea!!!
This is a really lovely treat
We all love a pamper, and I think these are a good excuse. Especially for men is great too.
Who doesn’t love to be pampered!
I’ve always wanted a posh advent calendar and these are lovely
Never had a beauty calendar to myself, in fact its years since I had on at all!
This was my first ever!!!!!
Love the idea of both of these – fingers crossed I get lucky
They are good ones!!!
These advent calendars look amazing. Would be a fab prize for December.
i always love different advent calendars it makes a change from just chocolate
It really does Laura.
These sound lovely! Lots of things in them to please everyone!
Wonderful, I’ve never had a beauty calendar.
Love this type of advent calendar, have had a similar one before and loved it.
They are lovely aren’t they!!!
Love these advent calendars. I really like the mixture of make up and tools on the ladies. I think my husband would love the aftershave Balm. He is not one for pampering himself normally but the things are not ott. He would also use the foot cream
The items in the men’s one are ones he would find useful which is handy.
wow this has a bit of everything in this calendar, i would love to win this xx
They do have a range of products in there.
You’ve been so clever to take great photos which show that they calendars are lovely without giving too much away about the contents.
That’s very sweet. Thanks so much. I won’t tell you how many I took lol. I will say it took a while though x
You’ve been very clever to take great photos showing how lovely the calendars are without giving too much away about the contents.
Ha, I was sneaky but didn’t want to give too much away. It’s nice to have a surprise too x
It’s so rare to see men’s advent calendars, I remember when I was young it was just chocolate or pictures now you can pretty much get anything socks, cheese, gin, beer.
Honestly, I hadn’t looked for them before. When I saw them on the site though I had to ask if I could feature both as I am aware I have a number of lovely male readers too. I can’t have them feeling left out.
These look really good and would be perfect for something different this year, as I usually only have a chocolate advent calendar.
It is nice to have options.
Love reading reviews of advent calendars and to see the actual products you get in there before purchasing. Makes it all the more exciting too!
It is exciting to see what these things are like. I hope I’ve not given too much away though x
This looks amazing and like a great opportunity to self-care and connect during the pandemic! Is it open to residents of the US too? #fingerscrossed
It sure is ideal for self-care. We all need to have treats here and there.
I love the range of products in both of the calendars! It’s always nice to try something that you don’t always get for yourself, for me it’s things like the lip liners and eyeshadows. I’d love to see what the nail polishes are like, especially if they’re festive or sparkly!
It sure is. I can’t wait to get all the doors open and try everything!!!
What a good idea to have a men’s beauty products calendar. Its better than the alcohol ones you normally see
I’ve not managed to get my hands on one of those yet!!!! These are lovely!
Lovely to see a men’s version of the beauty advent, great idea.
I agree, well done Mad Beauty!!!
Such beautiful advent calendars, Will make the run up to Christmas much more fun xx
They sure do!!!
It’s the best advent I’ve seen. Such a great post
It is pretty good. I didn’t want to reveal too much so you’d all still be surprised when you opened the doors x
Another great competition! These advent calendars sound and look amazing! Much better than just a picture behind a door LOL how things have changed
Ha, tell me about it. What a difference. Even better than chocolate!
There have been so many beauty calendars on the market this year, but I don’t think I’ve seen a men’s one before! Well done MAD beauty! Although it is a little bit sad that the men get only 12 doors and the ladies get 24! 😄
I know, how fab is this!!! It’s great they have created this one for men.
How lovely! Never had a beauty advent calender before and one designed for men is great! We are lucky if we have chocolate ones!!
Its years since I have had an advent calendar, I always want a good one but it gets pushed to the back burner due to buying other peoples presents, it would be great to get one for myself for once
I love beauty advent calendars but being on maternity leave currently means that I can’t afford one of the ones I normally get, they seem to be big business this year….I wonder if people are more like to treat themselves to indulgence like this because of how rubbish the year has been! Thankfully I have a new baby to keep me busy and to keep me from dwelling;)
It does cheer you up seeing all the different goodies each day.
Such a good idea to have a man’s version of the beauty calendar – they so often miss out or have to make do with the alcohol ones !
I agree it’s nice that they can have a beauty calendar.
Mad Beauty is a new brand to me. The calendars look great and I appreciate the detailed information you have provided in your product reviews.
I am always on the lookout for advent calendars that are that bit different and these are so different i love them
They sure are. It’s great that they have an option for men too.
I love the Mad Beauty range, they have such, quirky, fun products, but they really work too! The advent calendars would be such a treat.
The ladies would be lovely for my granddaughter. Any man would be grateful for these gifts which are not too way-out!
would love this for my boys.
These advent calendars look and sound great, plus your never to old for an advent calendar
Lovely prize and thanks for the chance. So men are opening those little doors now.
Ha, yes they sure are!!!
I’m loving seeing all these beauty advent calendars out this year, there is so much choice
I’ve never tried a beauty advent calendar before & these look lovely xx I usually end up with a maltesers one 🙂 Great that there’s one for men too.
How cool is this for an advent calender, I’d love to win
The products sound very nice and advent have got so much over the years turning into a present themselves.
Love advent calendars, especially the surprise of each day and a new treat to experience.
Me too, it’s so exciting!!!
I normally get the cheap chocolate advent for myself but would really love to treat myself and this mad beauty looks perfect
It has some lovely treats in there.
i’m a big fan of a non chocolate based advent! They serve me so much better!
These are great alternatives.
Never seen a his and her advent before!
These are great aren’t they!!!
Very interesting to see a mens toiletry advent calendar. I’m sure my son would still prefer sweets – even tho he’s 16!
These Advent calendars look so good, I’ve always wanted one of these and one for the hubby too! Perfect
I love to buy advent calendars for the kids, but while Daisy and Leo are still young enough to enjoy a chocolate a day, Piper, at 13, is now a proper young lady and I always feel a choccie calendar is a bit lightweight for her. This sounds ideal because she loves her beauty products.
I’d love a beauty advent calendar! I had a lipstick one last year which I enjoyed but a variety of products like this one has would be lovely. I don’t think I’ve seen a men’s version before.
I think variety is much better. These are great!
I’ve never had a beauty advent calendar either! I keep seeing them all over social media, I want one so bad, lol
They seem to be everywhere!!!
I love the fact that the items are small enough to slip in the smallest of handbags.
That is handy!!!
love matching advents calendars! they’re such a lovely idea and it’s rare to find nice men’s options
It’s great they do one for men too.
They both look great and would be a lovely treat
These look fantastic. For myself I always go for a traditional chocolate calander, but when buying for the family I try to think of different ideas x
There are so many amazing advent calendars now, you are sure to find one to suit everyone. Always nice to get a daily treat on the lead up to Christmas.
I love the idea of beauty advent calendars! I remember when I was younger they were all just chocolate, so it’s a refreshing change to have something new and exciting to open! Although I do still love a good old chocolate one 🙂
I particularly enjoyed the article on what to buy for men. I am the only female in my extended family. I particularly struggle with finding a gift for my elderly Father in Law.
This might be the best advent calendar i’ve ever seen.
A fantastic bunch of goodies there, definitely something for everyone here, thanks for the chance.
They are full of some great products!!!
Would love the lip glosses and lip liners and also never thought about saving it and opening after Christmas something to look forward to.
It sure is. January is a boing month, we could all do with some excitement then.
So nice to see advent calendars with useful things behind each door! So often you get things you just know are never going to get used! A very pleasant change!
There are some great advent calendars these days, I actually never had anything different than chocolate so far
This is my first beauty calendar. I was soooo excited!!!
ooh i’d love to win this
I’ve never had a grown up advent calendar before, thanks for the chance .
They are a lovely change!!!
Some lovely advent calenders there, it adds such fun on the lead up to Chrismas.
It really does!!!
I would love this. It’s so cool to see how many different advent calendars there are these days.
It sure is. There are loads to choose from.
I love advent calendars but can never choose just 1, this one looks so good x
There are so many lovely ones.
I love the variety of products in these calendars. So often I find beauty advent calendars are very “samey” or full of things I wouldn’t particularly use, but these really would excite me to open!
These have a good range which I liked too x
These are really lovely advent calendars! So different – and I particularly like the Mad Beauty one for men – its unusual to find beauty advent calendar for a man. Brilliant competition!
Thanks, I’m so glad you liked these. I was glad to discover a men’s one too!!!
perfect gifts for my brother and sister in law – thank you for the reviews x
Thanks for visiting x
I’d love for both my partner and myself to own an advent calendar. There’s not normal any options for men, so happy they are finally branching out to do men’s calendars
The MAD Beauty Men’s 12 Days Advent sounds great, contains some good stuff.
It does doesn’t it. They’re varied too.
Lovely photography of the calendars, made them look even more christmassy than they are! Can get advent calendars for all tastes and interests these days, even grown ups love a bit os christmas!
Thanks so much Michelle. It’s great the options available these days.
What a fab advent calendar. I wouldn’t mind opening that in the run up to Christmas x
It is a good one. It’s fun to see what’s in them each day.
i love advent calendars but i just think they’re so expensive
Some can be but these are much more reasonable.
A lovely advent calendar, perfect for me. A daily surprise in each one that is useful and fun. But, would still have to have a choccy one as well! Hehe!
Love advent calendars, some of them are so expensive though! I saw the John Lewis one selling on eBay for £235!!
I love the fact that there can be his and hers advent calendars – though I am not sure how the male of the species would react to it.
I love these, great selection something for everyone
There sure is. They have a varied selection.
This looks fantastic
I adore these calendars my fav by far this year the packaging is just stunning looks super high end would be happy as Larry if I was gifted these
They do look great don’t they!!!!
These both look like great advent calendars. I love the idea of having matching his and hers advent calendars with my husband!
It’s a great idea!
It’s been a terrible year and it is much appreciated that you are cheering us up with a lovely giveaway. Many thanks!
I love a good advent calendar and these look great – lovely photographs of them too!
It’s nice to have something different.
I would love this, I have always wanted a beauty advent calendar
They are a great alternative to chocolate. Or, you can enjoy both!!!!
these do look great, i have to admit i haven’t brought any advent calenders yet!!!
Not long now, they’ll be sold out everywhere soon.
I do love all the alternative advent calendars that have made it out into the realm recently. There’s a great selection in these, something for everyone and useful not dust gatherer tat
There is a growing range of options which is great.
Really good post, great selection here
Thanks Kate ❤️
Its a great selection and I love the fact the womens has more doors than the mens lol. I would be gloating to the hubby plus he would have to share with the 12yr old. Look like there is so many different items so you wont be short on anything I might be kind and let my sister open 1 door just to show her what she’s missing lol x
Lol, I’d not be too quick to gloat, yours might decide he wants two to make up for it!!!
Ladies MAD Beauty Christmas Lights Advent Calendar looks lovely very eye pleasing design, plus the selection of products in it is fabulous.
This is a great giveaway! It would be fabulous for my Husband and I to have advent calendars for a change, as it is only the children in our house that get them normally! Thank you for the opportunity!
I love Advent Calendars and these are perfect! It is such a change to see something other than chocolate in them!
Not often you see a male beauty advent calendar. Great stuff!
I know, it’s great they have one.
Wow, this is a great alternative the to usual choccy advent calendars. I love that it would give me and my hubby a chance to try out products without buying the full size versions.
Love beauty advent calendars but have never been able to afford one. Your blog sells them really well.
These are both well priced compared to some others available. Thanks Ruth I aim to help x
These look great. Thanks for the wonderful prize and competition.
These are really fun and useful gifts
Calenders can be a great way to get into the Christmas spirit for young and old.
I’ve not actually heard of Mad Beauty before so quite intrigued by their products, and an advent calendar is a great way to sample them!
It sure is a great introduction to a company.
I love these calendars. A nice surprise for every day 🙂
I love to concept of the men’s beauty advent calendar as you don’t see many about.
These look fabulous, love that there’s a his and hers!
These look great. I love trying new beauty products!
Me too!!!
Who doesn’t love a beauty advent calendar? These look pretty nice
I know!!!!!!
would love to win theses for me and the hubby love the fact their is a male one
Perfect something for everyone
Love that there is a his and hers calender never seen that before,
Would love to share this with my fiance – thank you for this amazing comp!
Sounds like the perfect Advent Calendar for both male and female.
these look like fab advents, a nice treat for us adults
I love getting little treats each day and both of these sound fab!
I like the trend for different types of advent calendar. So many more than just chocolate ones these days.
I agree, it’s good to have options.
Its so nice to have something to open in the land up to Christmas. We forget about ourselves as adults as its all about the kids, but a little treat every day really can cheer us up!
I look at the beauty advent calendars each year, but so far I’ve never actually bought one or received one as a gift.
i do like the mens calendar, they (men) are so hard to find a suitable one for outside of chocolates
I’ve not seen many for men either which is a shame. Can’t have them being left out.
this would be perfect for christmas
I can’t believe how many different Advent calendars are available this year. I still remember whent the chocolate ones came out
This would be lovely to share with my friend Nick who has helped me with losing my darling Malamute, Nakoma.
