If you’re still on the hunt for a beauty advent calendar to open daily this December 2023, we’ve spotted one that now has 25% off in the Black Friday sale – plus Metro readers can get an exclusive, extra 10% off with a special code.
The 24-day ‘Beauty Treasures’ advent calendar was priced at £94.90 – but now £71.17 in the pre-Black Friday sale.
But how would you like it for even less?
To make your money go further, we’ve managed to secure an early access code that gives you an extra 10% off with METROBF – reducing it to £64.05, and over £30 off!
As retailers prepare themselves for one of the busiest times of the year, Black Friday is almost upon us. Even though the sales extravaganza doesn’t actually start until November 24, there are plenty of brands that have started discounting goods already – including Lumene.
Lumene is the much-loved beauty brand, inspired by Nordic heritage and top-quality natural ingredients – and every day this December, beauty fanatics can look forward to one of either 18 skincare products and six makeup favourites – including Nordic-C [Valo] Overnight Bright Sleeping Cream, which shoppers have called ‘excellent’ and Invisible Illumination Dewy Glow Setting Spray that gives a ‘lovely glow’.
24 Nordic Beauty Treasures
You'll find 18 skincare and six makeup favourites inside this gorgeous advent calendar
Shop £64.05 (was £94.90)Often we find advent calendars are a great way to try out new beauty brands – without wasting money on skin and haircare products that we might not even like.
If you’ve never heard of Lumene or just fancy treating someone you love to an advent calendar that doesn’t contain chocolate? Then this is perfect.
And it’s not just the Nordic Beauty Treasures Advent Calendar that has 25% off in Lumene’s Black Friday sale, but a whole range of must-have essentials – plus that extra 10% off with METROBF.
Take the Instant Glow Fresh Skin Tint, priced at £27 – down from £36. One ‘busy mum’ has taken to the comments section to rave about this being the ‘best product’.
‘I only have few minutes a day to stand in front of a mirror and make myself look like a decent human being. I’ve spent over a year looking for a routine that would make my skin look good with minimum effort. I can’t praise this product enough!’

This makeup hybrid hydrates and perfects the skin for a youthful, second-skin look
Shop £27 (was £36)She went on to say: ‘My face tone suddenly looks even and fresh, with very even coverage and no clogged visible pores (my pores are like volcanos). As it is a moisturiser and foundation combo means I can apply it straight after washing my face meaning there are only two steps and I’m ready!’
We’re also huge fans of the Liquid Blush in Pink Blossom (was £24.90, now £18.67) here at Metro, and have been for years too! Just like Dua Lipa (sort of) once sang ‘one drop is all it takes’, as this highly pigmented product packs a punch.
It also contains the skin-loving ingredient of Wild Cloudberry, which has twice as much Vitamin C than their weight in oranges!

This will make you look more alive in a flash – and you only need the smallest amount
SHOP £18.67 (was £24.90)If Vitamin C is currently your skincare ingredient go-to, then you’ll love the Nordic-C [Valo] range – and particularly the Arctic Berry Oil-Cocktail. Originally priced at £49, now £24.67, skincare fanatics have called this ‘luxury in a bottle’ and a ‘stunning product’. Well that’s us sold…
Just like all good things, this sale at Lumene won’t be on for long – in fact it will all be over on November 27, so make the most of this incredible skincare sale whilst you can (and that early access code of METROBF too).
