The Free People 2024 beauty advent calendar has 24 products from the likes of Who Is Elijah, Dedcool, RMS Beauty, and Youth To The People – here’s everything you need to know
Beauty fans who love to discover new, emerging or under-the-radar brands can stock up on makeup, fragrance and more as part of a newly-launched advent calendar deal. Free People is the latest retailer to release its 2024 Christmas countdown, and it’s a dream for anyone who enjoys trying out products from cool, little-known brands.
The retailer’s 2024 Beauty Advent Calendar contains a number of Free People’s favourite brands, like Who Is Elijah, Dedcool, RMS Beauty, and Youth To The People. Priced at £140, there are 24 products inside, working out at less than £6 per item.
One of the products inside, the Who Is Elijah Eau de Parfum: Cherry Fiesta, is set to be one of the fan favourites. Usually £118 for 50ml, the calendar delivers a 5ml travel-sized version of the fragrance, which would work out at £11.80. And we’ve heard that cherry scents are going to be a huge trend in the coming months.

I’ve reviewed dozens of beauty advent calendars and Sephora’s is one of the best money can buy
There’s some well known brands, too, including Pai Skincare – loved by the likes of Georgia Toffolo – as well as Supergoop! and Wunderbrow. But also plenty of exciting new discoveries, as well as Free People’s own products, including a vegan lip balm and rollerball scent.
Some shoppers may be slightly disappointed by the fact that only four of the products are full sized. However, there’s only one way to find out if this calendar is worth the money, and that’s to check out the full contents, which you can find below.
