The Cult Beauty Advent Calendar 2026 is one of the most anticipated beauty launches of the year and I am delighted to see it back.
As with last year, this year I am also hoping to see premium skincare, makeup, haircare and fragrance from some of the industry's most sought-after brands, and as soon as information becomes available, this post will be updated.
If you're wondering about the Cult Beauty Advent Calendar 2026 release date, price, contents, and whether it's worth buying, here's everything you need to know.
When Does the Cult Beauty Advent Calendar 2026 Go on Sale?
The Cult Beauty Advent Calendar 2026 launch is being kept secret but following recent years I’d expect it to be around September. However you can join the waiting list to be alerted to the advent calendar going on sale before it sells out - which has happened almost every year.
How Much Is the Cult Beauty Advent Calendar 2026?
The Cult Beauty Advent Calendar 2026 costs £245, which is £5 more expensive than last year and contains products worth more than £1,100.
What's Inside the Cult Beauty Advent Calendar 2026?
This year's release is available in two different editions, Signature Edition, which can be shipped worldwide, and the Special Edition, which contains a selection of fine fragrances.
You can also expect to see 7 new launches, at least 16 full sizes and a plethora of your favourite brands.
