Liz Earle Advent Calendar 2026: 24 botanical skincare icons for Christmas
Twenty-four doors, £576.50 worth of product, and a line-up that reads like a Liz Earle greatest-hits edit. The 2026 ’24 Days of Liz Earle’ calendar brings together the brand’s most-loved skincare classics alongside newer launches from the Superskin and Restore & Glow ranges. If you’ve ever wanted to try a full Liz Earle routine before committing to full-price repurchases, this is the box for it.
The focus is unambiguously skincare for the face, with 19 of the 24 products dedicated to cleansing, treating and moisturising, plus 5 for body and hands. No hair care this year, no fragrance, no make-up. That’s either a selling point or a dealbreaker depending on what you’re after, and it’s worth being clear about.
The spirit of Liz Earle
Liz Earle is one of the few British skincare brands that has earned real loyalty across decades without chasing trends. Founded on naturally active ingredients, the line is Leaping Bunny certified and cruelty-free, with botanical formulas that lean on plant extracts rather than synthetic fragrance. It sits in the premium skincare bracket, and that matters here: the products have genuine daily-use value.
What this beauty advent calendar contains
The 24 products split into 19 face care and 5 body and hand items. On the face, you’ll find both signature cleansing systems: the Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser (100ml) and the Cleanse & Glow Gel Cleanser (150ml). The Superskin line adds four products, including the Superskin Advanced Lift & Define Serum (28ml, new this year) and the Neroli Moisturiser (75ml), alongside the Instant Boost Skin Tonic (200ml), two eye creams, a hydrating mask and the Restore & Glow radiance duo.
For body and hands, the Mandarin & Nutmeg trio steps in this year (hand cream, body wash, body cream), joined by the Orange Flower Hand Wash and Hand Repair. Three cloths (one Luxury Face Cloth, two Pure Cotton Cloths) come with the box as accessories rather than counting among the 24.
Many of the items are in generous full sizes. Divide the £175 launch price by the 24 products and you arrive at £7.29 per item, set against a stated content value of £576.50, a ratio most beauty calendars don’t approach.

✳️ The 2026 edition versus last year
The most visible change is the body and hand range. Last year’s calendar leaned on Bergamot & Cardamom for body and hand products; the 2026 edit replaces that with the Mandarin & Nutmeg line, bringing in a hand cream, body wash and body cream from that collection. The stated value rises from £500 to £576.50, a meaningful jump. Two arrivals stand out: the Superskin Advanced Lift & Define Serum and the Superskin Moisturiser with Natural Neroli, both new to this year’s line-up. The Botanical Shine Nourishing Hair Oil, which appeared in the previous edition, is absent in 2026. If hair care was the part you were looking forward to, that’s a genuine change to register.
The core structure is otherwise intact: the Cleanse & Polish, the Instant Boost Skin Tonic and the Superskin family remain anchors of the calendar, which gives the range a reassuring continuity.
✳️ My verdict on the 2026 Liz Earle calendar
What this calendar does well is honesty. The product line is the brand’s own, there’s no obvious padding with travel minis, and the botanical, cruelty-free credentials hold throughout. At £175 against £576.50 worth of product, the gap between price and stated value is one of the more striking in the skincare category, and it holds up when you work backwards from the brand’s own retail prices.
The reservation is straightforward: 19 of the 24 products are for the face. That’s a narrow remit. Skincare enthusiasts who’ve been building a Liz Earle routine will likely see this as a feature; anyone hoping for a more balanced mix of face, body and hair will find it limited. The absence of hair care (present last year) makes that narrowness more pronounced.
Devotees of the Superskin and Cleanse & Polish lines will find this genuinely useful across December and beyond. It earns its price for them.
