Looking for a gift for your favorite beauty lover for the upcoming holidays? Sephora’s advent calendar has arrived, and anyone who enjoys skincare and beauty would be thrilled to get it. Inside the calendar are 24 miniature products (a total value of $93), one for each day in December leading up to Christmas. Not only do you get a whole bunch of new items to test out, but it’s also fun to be surprised with a little present every day. Grab it now for $49 at Sephora.

As any beauty fanatic knows, it can be annoying when you want to try a new product but can only find a full-size version of it. If you end up not liking it, you’re left with a mostly-full container of moisturizer or barely used tube of mascara and less money in your bank account. That’s where an advent calendar comes to the rescue: The minis are perfect for testing out new products without making a full commitment. They’re also a great size for travel and won’t take up too much space in your carry-on bags or luggage.

Use the advent calendar minis to give yourself an at-home spa day to relax from holiday stress. Instead of actual cucumber slices, try the vegan eye masks to help banish dark circles, and then wear the matcha face mask to reduce redness and soothe inflamed and irritated skin. And don’t forget to massage your face with the gua sha tool to release tension and tame puffiness.

Makeup aficionados will appreciate the mascara, eyeliner, lipstick, and nail polish hidden throughout the 24 days. Put on a festive red lip for holiday parties with the long-lasting Cream Lip Stain that has a matte finish and will stay put as you take sips of drinks and bite into snacks. If you want to add a pop of color to your nails, choose between a bright cherry (Cherry Popsicle) or a sheer pale pink (Strawberry Macaron) nail shade. The small polish bottles are easy to toss in your purse or pack in a suitcase for touch-ups on the go, too.

When it comes to the calendar’s skincare, you’ll find a nose strip, a moisturizer, and a cleanser, among other products. The fragrance-free moisturizer is formulated for a variety of skin types, but the hydrating hyaluronic acid makes it especially good for dry winter skin. And at the end of a long day, you can use the prebiotic gel face wash to clean your skin.
