NOTINO’s £81.50 advent calendar reveals 24 beauty buys, from Olay Super Serum to Lacoste

NOTINO’s 2026 advent calendar costs £81.50 and puts 24 products behind its doors, including Olay Super Serum 14ml, Max Factor mascara and a Lacoste fragrance miniature. The official page lists it as in stock on 8 November 2026, with a stated contents value of more than £160. It is a mix of everyday beauty essentials and smaller treats, rather than 24 luxury full sizes.

The NOTINO advent calendar covers skincare, haircare, body care, make-up and fragrance. At the current product price, that works out at about £3.40 per door before delivery. You also get stickers for wrapping presents, a small extra rather than another beauty product.

An everyday beauty calendar with a smaller serum hero

The interesting thing here is the spread. There are substantial shower products alongside a 4.5ml fragrance miniature, plus practical things such as a razor and lip balm. That can be more useful than a drawer full of samples, provided you actually want the body and hair products as well as the make-up.

Olay Super Serum is the named skincare draw, but the calendar contains the 14ml size, not the 30ml bottle. The official Olay 14ml product page identifies this smaller format. We have not tested the calendar or the products, so the appeal here is the selection and the price, not a promise about skincare results.

Our take: count the products you will actually use

We like that the list includes familiar everyday brands and gives the sizes upfront. The shower products and hair treatments make this a fairly practical calendar. On the other hand, there are two got2b brow products, and neither a miniature fragrance nor a small serum should be mistaken for a full-size bottle.

The stated worth of more than £160 is NOTINO’s valuation, not cash you automatically save. The page separately shows £121 as the lowest price in the 30 days before the offer began. That is a recent-price comparison, not the same thing as the value of the contents.

If you would rather put the budget into make-up, see our MAC advent calendar breakdown. For a fragrance-focused contrast, our Byredo calendar article shows a very different approach. Our beauty advent calendar guide is a useful starting point for comparing formats.

Price and availability: the essentials

On 8 November 2026, the official product page shows £81.50 including VAT and in stock. This is a one-off calendar purchase, not a subscription, so there is no monthly renewal or 12-month commitment.

Delivery is extra unless an applicable delivery offer is shown in your basket. NOTINO’s delivery information lists standard rates of £2.49 for EVRI collection, £2.99 for EVRI home delivery and £3.49 for DPD home delivery. If those rates apply to your chosen option, the totals are £83.99, £84.49 and £84.99 respectively. The delivery page quotes three to four working days after dispatch, rather than a guaranteed arrival date.
