As luxury beauty advent calendars flood social media, questions arise about their actual value. Some users, like TikToker Cissy Jones, argue that these calendars can save money on high-quality beauty products, with retailers claiming their items are worth much more than the purchase price. However, experts warn that many brands use these calendars to offload less popular stock. While some consumers appreciate the variety and excitement, others question the high costs, especially if they won’t use all included items. With scams on the rise, cautious shoppers weigh the pros and cons before indulging in these seasonal luxuries.
