There are loads of great beauty brands that are vegan these days. Every year I share my favourite cruelty-Free beauty advent calendars but this year I thought I would also do a round-up of just the vegan beauty advent calendars I’ve come across in my searches too! Sometimes you get one that is cruelty free but not vegan and vice versa!
I have tried to include some more affordable options and have placed them in order of cheapest to most expensive for your convenience.
Beware that some of the images have content spoilers so if you like a true surprise maybe don’t look at the images too closely.
This post was last updated September 2024. I’m adding the products as they are announced in the 2024 section at the top of the post and will clearly mark 2024 on the new ones. I’m going to leave the 2023 section in and delete out the brands that have announced new updates and leave the old ones marked as 2023 until the brand announces their 2024 replacement. I didn’t want to wait until all the brands have announced as I can see some of you are eager to see them straight away! Also, if you want a bargain, some of the 2023 versions are still available at a fraction of the price so its worth keeping them in for now!
