Beauty advent calendars 2026
Beauty is where advent calendars get expensive — and where the value maths matters. Below: 2026 UK options ranked by what you pay, what the retailer claims they're worth, and how many full-size products you actually get. Built for the person who wants skincare and makeup in December, not another chocolate tray.
