Sainsbury's Beauty and Skincare Advent Calendar 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 — 241 calendars. Green is the better side of the median, red the worse; the median is printed so you can disagree.

Our Sainsbury's Beauty and Skincare Advent Calendar 2026 review
Our verdict
A sensible supermarket box: cleanser, micellar water, mascara, hand cream, body wash and a mini Tangle Teezer from brands you would pick off the same shelf. Little of it is exciting, but almost all of it gets used, and the velvet case is a nicer container than most at this price.
Reviewed by Viktoria · 2026 season · How we review
What works
- 24 different brands, most of them names people already buy
- Plenty of full-size pieces: CeraVe cleanser, NIVEA hand cream, L'Oréal hairspray, Bioderma micellar water
- The velvet case is a usable wash bag afterwards
What does not
- Drugstore staples rather than discoveries
- Door 24 could be either of two lip shades
