Sephora's back in the UK - along with three budget-friendly beauty advent calendars

Sephora UK launch
There's three advent calendars to shop featuring Sephora's most popular products.(Sephora)

Sephora has finally made a comeback in the UK and we couldn't be happier. On 17 October, Sephora launched online and will be opening physical stores in the UK next year.

The beauty retailer is well known for its extensive range of luxury and affordable brands spanning skincare, make-up, haircare and fragrance, and for the last 17 years, UK shoppers have needed to travel abroad to enjoy shopping in store.

While there's plenty of brands we'd urge you to stock up now they're finally available, including Makeup By Mario, Danessa Myricks and ILIA, it's Sephora's own brand, Sephora Collection, that's top of our shopping list - specifically its beauty advent calendars.

Sephora Collection features nail polish, make-up and skincare products that are widely adored by the beauty community, and are typically cheaper than many of the luxury brands it stocks.

With 1 December fast approaching, beauty advent calendars have exploded in popularity this year - you can find our round-up here, from Liberty and Net-A-Porter to John Lewis and The White Company.

So when we spotted Sephora Collection had released three different calendars to kick off the countdown to Christmas, we couldn't wait to start shopping. Two of them are exclusively filled with Sephora Collection's most popular products, while the third is a luxury treat packed with goodies stocked across the retailer.

Spanning a range of budgets, for UK beauty shoppers, it's the perfect opportunity to discover what Sephora has to offer. Read on to find out how to get your hands on one.
