How much is the Glossybox Advent Calendar 2025?

For 2025, the Glossybox Beauty Advent Calendar is priced at £90 for non-subscribers, or £75 if you’re a Glossybox subscriber.

The contents are worth over £624, so you’re looking at a saving of well over £500 either way, with the best discount reserved for members.

It’s a Limited Edition drop (separate to your monthly box), which means you’ll still need to buy it on top of your subscription — but subscribers get the lower price and priority access.

For context, last year’s calendar was £85/£70 and worth £585, so you’re paying slightly more this year for a noticeably higher value.

If you’ve been eyeing a subscription anyway, signing up before launch secures the member price and the best chance of bagging one before it sells out.

Is the Glossybox Advent Calendar worth it?

On paper, yes. The 2025 Glossybox Advent Calendar packs 27 products (with a strong full-size count) and is worth over £624, while pricing lands at £75 for subscribers or £90 for non‑members.

If you like a ready‑made mix of skincare, makeup, haircare and body treats, the value stacks up quickly — it’s an easy way to refresh your routine for far less than RRP, and subscribers get priority access plus the lower price.

We’re in the process of testing it out now, so we’ll update with our hands‑on verdict, standout picks and any watch‑outs.

Early impressions: the line‑up feels balanced with party‑season staples and winter skin savers, not just filler minis.

As ever with beauty calendars, it’s best for discovery lovers who enjoy trying multiple brands.

If you’re ultra‑loyal to one or two products, a single big‑ticket gift set may suit you better.
