October is a lot of things. Most notably, it’s the start of fall and spooky season. But don’t forget it’s also peak advent calendar time, with brands releasing new holiday offerings left and right. One name celebrating early is TONYMOLY, and it really did its big one this year. Enter: the marked-down 2025 Squishmallows x TONYMOLY skincare advent calendar
.
2025 Holidays
TONYMOLY x Squishmallows Advent Calendar 2025
On Sale 16% off
What’s Inside: 7 skincare products and accessories
The limited-edition, seven-day countdown houses adorably packaged TONYMOLY K-beauty skincare essentials, along with a couple of Squishmallows accessories—and all for just $21 (originally $25 and a $32 value). Here’s a full list of what the set includes:
Best for Calming: Repairing Snail Mucin + Cica Sheet Mask
Best for Soothing: Soothing Calendula + Chamomile Sheet Mask
Best for Acne: Cam Blemish Patches
Best for Nourishing: Hand Cream (Assorted)
Best for Hydrating: Bag Charm Keychain Lip Gloss (Assorted)
Best Collector’s Item: Squishmallows Keychain Charm (Assorted)
Best Accessory: Plush Cam the Cat Headband
That’s everything you can unbox from this advent cal, but the surprises come in the hand cream, keychain lip gloss, and keychain charm. Which of the five hand creams, six lip glosses, and four charms will you get? Each one features a Squishmallows character—from Howland the Bull to Christo the Red Chili Pepper. My favorite item in this set, though, is for sure the Cam the Calico Cat pimple patches. They’re just so cute and the perfect way to zap blemishes.
While this advent calendar’s packaging is the star of the show, don’t forget that TONYMOLY makes effective and affordable skincare products. Some of the ingredients in this group of products include calendula (calms irritation, reduces inflammation, and soothes skin), centella asiatica extract (calms irritation and reduces redness and inflammation), snail mucin (hydrates and restores the skin barrier), and niacinamide (strengthens the skin barrier and reduces redness).
You’re getting solid K-beauty skincare products topped with precious Squishmallows designs and accessories. What more could you or your beauty guru giftee ask for in an advent calendar? Because Squishmallows advent calendars tend to sell out fast, I suggest you hurry and order this one online from Amazon
or TONYMOLY’s site while it’s on sale. While you’re at it, you might as well also pre-order Squishmallows’ 2025 advent calendar
on Amazon (releases on November 20, 2025).

The advent calendar in question is from an Etsy seller that seems to specialize in niche advent calendars. Along with Labubus, the shopsilverstars makes K-pop, coquette, and Taylor Swift advent calendar gift boxes. I might not be in any of these fandoms, but I must say, the Etsy seller does an amazing job of curating these gift sets, and the Labubu one is no exception.
shopsilverstars LABUBU Advent Calendar Gift Box: 12 Days of Surprises
What’s inside the 2025 Labubu advent calendar? Unwrap each item to find outfits, accessories, a mini clothing rack, holiday accessories, keychains, water bottles, pencils, pencil cases, charms, straw toppers, and stickers. The variety is unmatched, but just note that all products in this gift box are Labubu-inspired and not necessarily official merch from Pop Mart, and no doll is included. Regardless, the clothing and accessories are sized to fit your cute little creature, and each item is individually wrapped and labeled by day so you or your giftee can get a true advent calendar experience.
Something else to note is that the Labubu advent calendar from Etsy is available for pre-order right now and will be shipped by November 15, 2025. Be sure to place your order by November 1, 2025 if you want to receive your box by November 15.

Looking at the product images, which clarify that samples vary by box, I’m seeing Crocs, headphones, cameras, knit sweaters, and other adorable accessories on the first slide of Labubu apparel. The second slide shows Labubu merch, such as hair clips, keychains, and pens. And lastly, the third slide is all about getting your doll decked out for the holidays. Dress up your Labubu in a Christmas sweater, striped scarf, and beanie, and surround it with a Christmas tree and wreath for the ultimate holiday photoshoot (wait, am I onto something with a Labubu Christmas card?).
Any and all Labubu collectors should hurry to pre-order this advent calendar from Etsy for $55. It looks like over 20 people have it in their carts at the moment, so don’t take too long to check out! And if you want to buy a doll to model all of the clothing and accessories from this cal, Walmart sells legit Labubus through its partnership with StockX. We also wrote a comprehensive guide on where to buy Labubus. Shop some options from Walmart below.

The advent calendar will put you on an “exclusive journey into the world of fine wines” with its hand-picked selections from popular wine regions such as American wine country (California), Italy, France and Spain.
Shoppers can choose from three different curations, such as the Cozy Collection which comes with 12 different reds perfect for “fireplace chats and wool blankets” or the Chill Collection that caters to those who prefer a mix of crisp whites, rosés and chillable reds. You can also go all out and gift yourself both for 24 nights of delectable wine.
While the calendar may not come with hidden windows to unbox each day, the all-new flat-box unwrapping concept displays all 12 individual servings of wine in a very interesting way. Any of the calendars would also make for the perfect gift for the upcoming holiday season to those seeking to sample an assortment of wines.
There’s no predicting when this popular advent calendar will sell out again, so make sure to purchase one (or both) before they’re gone.

Alright, hear me out—I know it’s only October, but you should order your holidaybeauty advent calendars now. If you wait until November or December, your faves might be sold out and that’s not the way you want to kick off the holiday season.
The secret about beauty advent calendars is that they’re a great way to score the most amount of items for less (when you really break it down product by product). Whether you want to try your go-to skincare brand’s entire product line or do a mix-and-match of famously good beauty products you have yet to try, you can get 12 or 24 items for a fraction of the full retail price. Plus, they’re fun. If you have a collector’s mindset or get a burst of serotonin whenever you unbox an item, you should definitely add an advent calendar to your cart. It’s basically 24 days of presents to yourself (or the loved one you gift it to).
