Benefit The Gorgeous Grocer Advent Calendar Comes in a Shopping Bask and I Have So Many Questions
Our first advent calendar for Holiday 2024 as dropped today! Actually, it’s our first Holiday 2024 Makeup launch for this year! It’s the Benefit The Gorgeous Grocer Beauty Advent Calendar and this year they’re treating us to full-size goodies in this 24 day Advent Calendar. All I can say is it’s about damn time as Benefit always does mini everything in these calendars and as far as I’m concerned full-size anything in an makeup and beauty advent calendar is a yes, please and thank you kind of moment. That being said this is a pretty hefty price tag and will set you back $164 to grab it! But of course, when do we pay full price for anything nowadays? They’ll surely be a sale at some point.
What’s inside the Benefit The Gorgeous Grocer? I’ll share that in a second but the interesting and perhaps weirdest part about this calendar is the fact it comes in a the little handheld shopping basket. Ya know, like the ones you grab for a quickie haul at Walgreens or CVS. I’m honestly scratching my head why…! Granted, we haven’t yet seen what Benefit Cosmetics Holiday 2024 will bring! Perhaps they’re doing some sort of grocery or fruit themed Holiday Collection? But why a shopping basket? I mean, it’s sort of cute in strange way but also, not really a traditional Holiday-like item right?
If you want spoilers jump ahead!
I didn’t do the complete math on this but if you add up the four full-size items inside you end up with $112 worth of product. Which means the other 20 items total $52. They don’t state the actual value of the set but I imagine it’s over the $164 bucks.
Here’s what you get that’s full-size:
- The POREfessional Face Primer
- BADGAL Bang! Bigger, Badder Mascara in Black
- 24-HR Brow Setter
- Roller Liner Eyeliner
For the other items we get mini and fun-size items. Minis are a bit bigger and fun-size a bit smaller. Sadly, they haven’t disclosed the exact weight and size of each of the items but I did break them down from mini to fun-size for you below!
Here are the mini items included:
- Willa Blush
- Terra BlushStarlaa Blush
- Cloudia Blush
- Hoola Bronzer
Here are the fun size items included:
- The POREfessional Good Cleanup Cleanser

Did you catch the Easter egg above? There’s one new item in the Benefit The Gorgeous Grocer Advent Calendar! It’s the Cloudia Blush! The Wanderful Blush Collection does not have a shade called Cloudia as far as I know. This is described as a misty pale-pink blush! Is this a Benefit Cosmetics Spring 2025 sneaky peek? Perhaps! It isn’t uncommon for brands to use Advent Calendars to give us a sneak peek into new items they plan on doing in the future.
