It’s December, which means it’s time to count down the days until Christmas! If you’re anything like us, you probably can’t wait until the 25th to start unwrapping your presents and spreading holiday cheer—and honestly, who says you have to? This year, we’re getting our daily dopamine boost from fun and festive calendars designed for all or part of the Advent season.
According to Britannica, Advent originated as a religious custom used to spiritually prepare Christians for Christmas and the second coming of Jesus Christ. Eventually, advent calendars began spreading worldwide, and in the 1950s, little treats such as chocolate were introduced behind the festive closed doors.
Today, advent calendars have grown beyond tradition and are appreciated by everyone—young and old, of all religions—and now feature more than just a sweet treat. From beauty products to style favorites, here’s our seasonal must-haves to help elevate your holiday countdown.
