Been looking for the best beauty advent calendar 2025? John Lewis’ offering may be one of the best we’ve seen yet.
Beauty advent calendars are dropping thick and fast, and we’ve never been so excited to open the doors and make our countdown to Christmas all the more glamorous.
Lookfantastic, Cult Beauty and Space NK are just some of the beauty retailers that have teased they are dropping beauty advent calendars in the coming weeks, and now John Lewis has been added to the list, too.
John Lewis’ Beauty Advent Calendar is set to retail for £235, though it contains a total value of over £1,000, which is the brand’s highest value calendar yet.

John Lewis Beauty Advent Calendar 2025
This year’s advent is filled with 36 beauty products, 23 of which are full sized. The contents ranges from make-up products, skincare and bodycare, as well as vouchers for beauty treatments. Big brands, including Le Labo, Chantecaille, Laneige and Trinny London are waiting inside. The general sale will launch on 3rd October.

How’s that for a pre-Christmas pamper?
In one advent calendar you will find a £1,000 John Lewis voucher, which is perfect timing considering the mad dash for Christmas shopping, while inside nine advent calendars will be a £500 John Lewis gift card.
Other treats include five Neal’s Yard facials, a 12-session Celluma face gift card with The Cavendish Clinic, Cavendish Clinic Skin Consultations with LED sessions, Elemis facials, and a personalised Kate Somervile skincare routine.
One lucky winner will even receive a signature Dr Hauschka 120-minute facial and an overnight stay for two at London’s Como Metropolitan hotel, as well as a year’s supply of skincare.

John Lewis, you really are spoiling us.
Speaking on John Lewis’ Beauty Advent Calendar, Heena Mohammend, Head of Beauty at John Lewis, said: ‘I’ve been so excited for our 2025 Beauty Advent Calendar to launch! Not only does it exceed the value of previous years, but it features some of our newest beauty brands such as Fenty, Laneige, Trinny and Chantecaille.
‘We’ve also included more surprise treatment experiences to make the calendar feel extra special for our customers. With searches already up 50% versus last year we know it’s a launch our customers are really looking forward to.’
The John Lewis Beauty Advent Calendar 2025 will go on general sale on 3rd October, however, there is a way you can get your hands on the goods before this.
Those who are My John Lewis members will gain exclusive first access to the calendar on 30th September. Considering last year’s advent sold out in six weeks, we think it’s wise to join the My John Lewis membership to avoid missing out.
