Fortnum & Mason has launched its 2026 Beauty Advent Calendar, priced at £275 but packed with contents worth £1,225. The calendar features 25 products from high-end brands, including premium skincare and designer perfume, giving shoppers over 77% off the total value.
Three items cover the full cost
Among the priciest items are Wildsmith Copper Peptide Cream, worth £120, Wildsmith Radiance Light Serum, worth £85, and Gallivant Abu Dhabi Eau De Parfum, priced at £70 at Boots. These three products alone total £275, meaning the other 22 items effectively come free.
Other notable contents include Connock Kukui Eau de Parfum worth £40, Bamford Nurturing Face Oil worth £56, and a 10ml sample of Clive Christian Original Collection No1 Feminine Parfum, whose full 50ml bottle retails at £650.
Gifting and delivery details
The calendar is available to order now but will not be delivered until after October 13. It comes in a refillable, reusable box with numbered doors for a traditional countdown to Christmas. Each item works out at £11, making it suitable for splitting into stocking fillers.
The collection includes 25 products from brands such as Clive Christian, Connock, Ombre Rose, Delilah, Shleep, Granado, Charlotte Posner, Sol De Janeiro, Aromatherapy Associates, and Bramley. Of the 25 items, 24 are full sizes.
