I nearly scrolled straight past this one. A men’s grooming calendar isn’t really my lane (no beard here, so the shaving brush would be wasted on me).
Then I actually read the list.
Most of it is skincare and body care. Weleda Skin Food is in there. So is a KP body scrub I’d happily nick for myself, and a flaky scalp shampoo and conditioner that made me sit up a bit. By the time I got to the bottom I’d mentally claimed about a third of the doors, which is probably not the reaction LOOKFANTASTIC were going for with a calendar that has a comb in it.
So it’s getting its own post. Every single door is below, and then the two I’d steal before it ever got wrapped.
At a glance
The LOOKFANTASTIC Grooming Advent Calendar 2026 costs £90, and LOOKFANTASTIC put its value at over £469. Inside are 25 doors holding 27 products, 15 of them full size, with ESPA, Shiseido, Rituals, Murdock London and Elemis named on the box. Right now it is in stock and usually dispatches within 24 hours. LOOKFANTASTIC advent calendars are normally priced on their own, so do not count on a discount code coming off it.

Ameliorate’s spray is a body one with salicylic and lactic acid in it, for bumpy or breakout-prone skin on your back and chest. And the candle is a full size candle, which always feels like a treat behind a door.
The two I’d take out before wrapping it
First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub
This is the one I’d grab first. KP is keratosis pilaris, those rough little bumps on the backs of your arms that loads of people have and hardly anyone knows the name of. Glycolic and lactic acid plus pumice do the work here, so you get the chemical exfoliation and the physical buff in one go.
Same territory as the Ameliorate lotion in the beauty calendar – LOOKFANTASTIC clearly rate this category, and so do I. They say to use it once or twice a week and follow with a moisturiser. (Handy, then, that the Weleda Skin Food is in here too.)
Philip Kingsley Flaky/Itchy Shampoo and Conditioner
Then this pair, which got a proper double take out of me. I’m a big fan of Philip Kingsley, especially their toner and their flaky scalp products, so spotting the Flaky/Itchy duo tucked inside a grooming calendar made me very happy.
Piroctone olamine is the active in the shampoo, an anti-flake ingredient I always look for when I’m reading a scalp product label.
They’re 20ml each, enough for a few washes. Thats exactly what a calendar door is for though. You find out if your scalp likes it before you commit to a big bottle.
If you want to check any of these against your own skin, my skin ingredient checker will flag the common fungal acne and rosacea troublemakers in a list.
Is the grooming advent calendar only for men?
LOOKFANTASTIC sell it as a grooming calendar, and the shaving brush and the cologne definitely lean that way. Skin is skin, though. Weleda and the Aveeno SPF would go down just as well in my bathroom as anyone else’s.
So if you’re buying it for someone and quietly planning to borrow a few doors, I won’t tell.
It makes a lovely gift for a loved one too. Honestly, I’m tempted to grab one for my husband so he can open a door while I open mine when the time comes. (Getting that man to use actual skincare instead of his usual one bottle that does everything, shampoo, conditioner, oil change, face wash, the whole 25-in-1 lot, would be a miracle in itself.)
But still.
Can you use a discount code on the grooming advent calendar?
I wouldn’t count on it. My code LFTFNEVEEN didn’t come off the beauty advent calendar or the 12 Days of K-Beauty one when I tested them in the basket, and LOOKFANTASTIC price their calendars on their own. It costs nothing to pop it in at checkout and see.
LFTFNEVEEN still gets up to 25% off across the rest of the site (no minimum spend, and you don’t have to be a new customer), so if anything else is going in the basket alongside the calendar, that’s where it earns its keep. Full terms are on my LOOKFANTASTIC discount code page.
