From the description
The big single item is a FOREO UFO 3 Mini facial device, full size, with a mask to go with it. Around it the box is built as a routine: cleanser, serum, eye cream, night repair, three eaux de parfum at 5 to 10 ml (Issey Miyake, Versace, Gucci), hair from Aveda, Philip Kingsley and Wella, and a Jo Loves votive candle for the evenings.
250 GBP from John Lewis, which sells it in the UK only. Lancôme's Bi-Facil has been swapped for Absolue The Eye Cream in some calendars, John Lewis says, so door contents can vary by box.

John Lewis Beauty 2026 by the numbers
How each one is countedEvery figure is computed from the record at build time and set against the median of the same season and the same kind of contents. Door price is the price on the box over its doors; the value multiple is what the contents come to at retail over that price; full size is the retailer’s own marking. Where the record cannot support a figure, the page leaves it out rather than guessing.The definitions, one by one →Each figure against the median of this season's beauty shelf — 227 calendars. Green is the better side of the median, red the worse; the median is printed so you can disagree.

Our John Lewis Beauty 2026 review
Our verdict
Forty-one products including a FOREO UFO 3 Mini and Sisley, La Mer and Shiseido skincare, valued at 4.6 times the 250 GBP price, make it the strongest of the UK department-store boxes on paper. Twenty of the 41 are unmarked deluxe sizes, several at 5 to 10 ml, and one door's contents can differ from box to box.
