The Liz Earle 24 Days of Liz Earle Beauty Advent Calendar is priced at £175 at Boots and carries a total value of £576.60, saving shoppers £401.60. The calendar contains 24 products, most of them full-size, and opens with the Superskin Advanced Nourishing Cleansing Balm, worth £42.95 on its own.
A Festive Unboxing With a Strong First Impression
Presented in a tiered box finished in festive green with gold sparkle, the calendar spreads 24 doors across three sections. The boxes vary in size, but each carries the same glamorous finish.
The opening door reveals the Superskin Advanced Nourishing Cleansing Balm, a silky formula that leaves skin feeling soft with a luxurious finish and an almost alpine scent. The reviewer described it as a refreshing morning burst that suits the Christmas season.
Mostly Full-Size Favourites With Some Repetition
The bundle includes four cleansers: two Cleanse & Polish editions, one Cleanse & Glow Transforming Gel Cleanser, and the cleansing balm. While stocking up on staples was welcome, four cleansers felt like a lot for a single calendar. Two cotton cloths and an additional face cloth also feature, which the reviewer found excessive.
Other products include the Instant Boost Skin Tonic, a gentle formula that refreshes without stripping, plus a body cream, hand creams, and the limited-edition Orange Flower scent. Some travel-sized samples are included, which are handy for testing formulas or carrying in a cabin bag.
A Call for More Variety
The only real criticism was repetition. The reviewer would have liked different categories, such as a hair treatment or a fragrance miniature, to make the daily reveals more varied.
Despite that, the product quality was consistently impressive. The calendar is available to shop via Boots and the Liz Earle website.
