What we think

At £115 for a stated worth of over £635, the ratio is more than five times the price, which is strong for a mid-priced calendar. More than half the products (14 of 26) are full size, and several are things you will actually finish: the Lisa Eldridge mascara, the Charlotte Tilbury liner, the 150ml Rituals mousse and the 100ml This Works body cocoon.

The catches: there is no personal fragrance, only the Jo Loves candle. A few products appear in lots of calendars, such as the Eight Hour Cream and the L’Occitane shea hand cream, so check what is already on your shelf. And the two face masks are single use.

For a K-beauty alternative, the LOOKFANTASTIC K-Beauty advent calendar 2026 costs £50. For a bigger multi-brand line-up, see the LOOKFANTASTIC beauty advent calendar 2026 (£120, in stock at LOOKFANTASTIC on 14 October), or the ASOS Face + Body advent calendar 2026 (£98).

Who is it for?

It suits make-up lovers who like recognisable names and want a calendar that feels current, at a price under £120. It is less suited to fragrance fans. For more options, see our guide to the best beauty advent calendars in the UK.
