Hey guys! So hmmm, I dont really know what I think about this calendar. It SO EXPENSIVE and Im really wondering if its truly worth it or not!? Let me know what you think! Love yađ
I rarely disagree with anything Wayne Goss says, but I just think CT is way overpriced. Congrats on the engagement party. So excited for you. Maybe you could share a few photos?
I like some of the products, but over-all, I'm baffled... like the pans are tiny. ... like Pat McGrath will hook me up for that price point. Js.
I love EVERYTHING in this advent calendar HOWEVER.... NOT @$200!!! Maybe worth the $89. đ€
HOW are you tired but look fresh and gorgeous?!đ
Oh hey!! The bun is back!
Heeey, are you planning on getting a Calendar for the doggos? I've seen so many on Tik Tok
Honestly the top of the box always strikes me as such a missed opportunity to have put in a makeup bag to store things in and it would have been a really useful nice touch and not very expensive to make and include.
True
Itâs an expensive brand and they can afford such nice things
Or what about a pretty branded hand mirror? Or maybe 3-4 face masks arrayed in a fan? Or hell, what about having the top be the 25th day and have it be a full-sized eyeshadow palette? So many of these boxes (not all, but most) seem to not only be stingy, but also lazily put together and lacking in imagination.
@@JaesadaSrisuk definitely an eye shadow palette or even blush! Something full size at least
Yes exactly!!!
This brand seems so greedy and full of themselves
Honestly, you've opened so many advent calendars. I think next year you should put together your own that gives an actual good value for the cost!
Edit: oh my goodness. I never thought this would reach so many likes! Thank you everyone. I'm glad so many of us are thinking the same thing! đ
I'd love to see it but I'm sure it would be very time consuming and costly to fill with quality products.
Yes!!! A "lovely, wonderful, fantastic" advent calendar?!?! I'd buy that đđ
Omg yessss!!! I'd buy that!!!
The money I would pay for a good advent omff
Yes please. Even if it's just 25 of her favorite things.
If Boxycharm can send five full-size products for $27.99 a month, surely these brands can put more than free samples in their ridiculously expensive calendars!
I was thinking the same thing, would be more exciting to just buy 3 boxes and make your own calendar at this point
You're not wrong. Just got my Dec box with a $495 value for the lux box
#TruthTalkin , â€ïžđâ€ïž Here 4 This Comment â€ïžđâ€ïž
Well they werenât going to put a full face cream in when itâs cost nearly half the price of the whole price. If you love the brand itâs going to be good value itâs not going to be every ones taste/preference.
@@Al-hv4rb thatâs what I was thinking! A full sized bottle of Pantene is going to be cheaper than than a 5x smaller bottle of Biosilk.
so I think an important detail is how much the product is by volume, and then you can calculate the bang for your buck.
Sooo I got curious and went back and looked. Everything is the same about this box from last year. Besides some minor things: the drawer knobs changed from circles to star, the color of the items was slightly different. But everything was basically in the same order even day 12 for last year and this year was the same setting spray. Just thought to add my weird answer I found hahaha. But love your channel!! Thanks for the fun videos! đ„°
Thank you! I came to the comments to find this out!
@@brianan5899 I couldnât help but not look, curiousness got the best of me haha
Thank you! I was going to look myself once I finished. But from what I remember, it looked very similar.
You've taught me one very important detail about advent calendars, Alexandria: avoid them at all costs! :-D :-/ I love watching all your unboxings xx
Or stick with the candy calendars!
@@jenniferp7497 Candy calendar? đ
I did not need to know that existed. đ
@@SayHelloToOblivion kitkat calendars are quite okay
My daughter has a really cute one with squishies and then one with Crystals if you are into that.
@@SayHelloToOblivion candy and chocolate advent calendars are more popular than the beauty ones. In my country every shop has them around christmas
I've done a Lego advent calendar this year. It's adorable and seems to be better value than any of the make up ones.
Every year we do a playmobil advent calendar which I normally order for $30ish dollars well this year they are over $60 đł so we went with a $30 lego friends one and she absolutely loves it.
My mom gets my kids one every year! They love it and it's great!! Lol
I got a puzzle one and I love it! A puzzle a day is super fun!
Yes!
Omg that sounds so cute and fun!
the top compartment would've been the perfect place to put a mirror and a cheaply produced makeup bag to take your new treasures on the go!
Yay- more advent-ness! I've personally never tried Charlotte Tilbury products, but if I was going to, an advent calendar would be a great way to do it. That being said, for $200, I would expect at least an eyeshadow quad or palette to be in there for that amount of money!
Can you say TOP DRAWER, (oh, and the mirror) would have made this calendar truly worth the $$$ !!
Agreed, for that money.....I'm disappointed with what's inside
I bet they put $59 worth of value on the box itself. Like crap... youâd probably buy a box like that in the store... not for $59 tho haha
These advent calendars are my favorite videos, especially when they suck lol
"this is how I look today" *points to perfect face*
Yes ma'am , @Alexandria Ryan can honestly say "I woke up with this perfectly Beautifulness " ... đ« Lies
I totally have vivid memories of that "bald man magnet" thing! His name was Wooly Willy, and back in the days before portable DVD players, he was one of my only sources of entertainment in the back of my family's station wagon on our yearly drive from PA to Florida.
The lesson I'm taking away from these advent calendars is save my money and buy the things I like from individual brands. I just love watching you unbox them.
Also, if you like Peach Mango Bang, look for Papillon Monster. Tastes like peaches and nectarines.
I LOVE when you show the board and flick the last number off and slap the new one on! Itâs the small things for me! â€ïž
CT is great, but definitely way overpriced. If you look enough you will find a dupe for half the price or less. Works out about $16.50 for each drawer. A lot for samples and a few full sizes.
What dupe for the lipstick? Or magic cream?
Paula's Choics makes one for a third of the price, and it's fragrance free. If you want the fancy, get a pretty jar and put some into it.
The only good thing of late I have seen about the Charlotte Tilbury one is that she's finally listened, and sells refills for her pretty jars. I couldn't get over the heavy perfume, which my skin chemistry did not get along with.
Revlon Super Lusteous lipstick shade "Rose Velvet" is identical to the original Pillow Talk lipstick.
@@DinkyInky2 Pillow talk isnât a matte lipstick?
Iâve heard of Paulaâs Choice and The Ordinary but never know when their sales are...
@@ananasbanana Milani in Secret is a dupe for Pillow Talk and the one in Passion is a dupe for the Pillow Talk medium one from what I've seen. I've got both and imo them are
I donât think CT is overpriced if Iâm honest. Iâve tried many different brands of drug store and high end makeup and hers is by FAR the best quality high end makeup there is. You get what you pay for and itâs definitely worth the price point in my opinion. A little goes a long way, especially where foundations are concerned and it lasts so so so much longer than any other so ends up overtime costing about the same per use as some drug store brands.
In saying that, I do feel that in a calendar at that price point, the products should ALWAYS be full sized.
I absolutely LOVE her mystery boxes though! If youâre wanting to try some things along with a free full sized gift with purchases(I got an airbrush foundation that is my all time fave at ÂŁ65 and a full sized lipstick the last time I ordered) then mystery boxes from CT are amazing for that(though they still arenât a cheap, but they do offer afterpay which is amazing!) â„ïžâ„ïž
If Iâm remembering correctly, Pillow Talk was the single original colour (the one we all know) and then they added on different shades for different skin tones.
This is why I just get a chocolate advent calendar. No disappointment and no wasted money. đ
My grandma got a jerky advent calendar!! Food oneâs are definitely the way to go!
I got an Inkvent calendar this year. Pretty good value with a new ink colour for a fountain pen each day.
I got myself a coffee pod advent calender this year and it's been a fun little adventure! I dont like buying a full bag of coffee that I end up disliking, so being able to try a month's worth of different coffee and finding out what I like and dislike has been fun! I mark my favorites for if I ever decide to order more in the future đâ
Hey Alexandria! Pillow talk was originally just one lipstick but CT came out with two more deeper skin friendly versions of the Pillowtalk lipstick and liners. They then came out with a couple of blushes and eyeshadows under the Pillowtalk name. âșïž
After seeing all the backlash part of me is thinking itâd be funny to see you unbox the Chanel advent calendar but I love ya too much to wish that disappointment (and ridiculous price!) on you!
I wouldn't wish that on her either, but you know she'd have a funny reaction xD
That would be so funny!!! I've heard that one was terrible
Waiting anxiously and gleefully for the Chanel calendar
Oh god, i saw that. Never thought i'd see the day when Sephora was actual competition for Chanel but here we are lol
@@jayc9345 AHeatedMess did an unboxing of the notorious Chanel calendar back in Oct.. Oh boy....the sheer disappointment.
"Sounds like something a villain would use in a superhero movie" đ
What are the chances your mascara golem willet us know which of the multitude of mascaras is her favorite? A full ranking video would be amazing, but even just a report of her favorite would be amazing đ€©
Look at you getting through 15 by the first week of December! Loving these videos. I know you're not a primer or setting spray person, but I find those are the products that give me the best glowly look. Milani makes a really nice dewy setting spray that I love, and the glow recipe dew drops mixed with foundation is really nice, or used under as skin prep/primer.
In the past, I REALLY wanted to try that Magic Cream. I waited until Sephora had a sale and bought myself a jar. The smell-- oh nooooo --, it smelled like what one imagines an old shut in would smell like. I actually had to return it, because the smell didn't wear off, that odor just stayed put and wafted up my poor nose all darn day. I was so disappointed, having such excitement when I was finally able to purchase (afford) that Magic Cream; ruined because someone went crazy in the fragrance department. Yikes! On a side note, I know you don't like setting sprays, but girl, that is a lot of setting spray! Perhaps if you used a little less it may work better for you?
I read this as âwhat an old shit would smell likeâ đđđ
Yes, I agree that she's spraying WAAAAY too much. Heavens, I use two, maybe three, sprays on a heavy face of makeup and that's more than enough.
You may have gotten a bad jar. I have been using the Magic Cream for years, and it has virtually no smell at all.
@@QueenOfTheNorth65 what does the magic cream actually do
For as pretty as the box always is, it always feels like a mis-step. They could be so amazing but they just fall a little short. Definitely a box to keep as a keepsake or jewelry box.
I love the feel of pillow talk! There are enough shades to be interesting but they all seem to me within the same color range.
I never met this girl in my life but she's my bestie
Hey Alex since youâre doing so many of these videos for the holidays, have you considered donating the extra products you wonât use to a womanâs homeless or domestic ab*se shelter? â€ïž It might seem minor to give some sample sized makeup and such to a shelter but the women there would love and appreciate it! Itâs nice for them to get things that arenât considered ânecessitiesâ for Christmas! (And helps with looking more presentable for jobs / court)
Just an idea I had while binge watching your videos âšâ€ïžđ
She did do this (pre COVID at least!). The rules might have changed during/after the pandemic and I know a lot of shelters in my area have been increasingly more careful with donations that go on eyes/mouth/lips. Or, she might not tell us anymore too. (:
If somebody could make a calander that cute thats all cruelty free, that would be awesome!
Check out Lush and The Body Shop.
@@Andytheevien lush i have heard of ill check the other thanks!
Deep steep is good too
@@Andytheevien I get a Body shop one nearly every year and I'm always happy with it! Lots of variety, many full size products and it's all stuff I will use.
Hello beautiful and everyone watching I hope that you're having an amazing and blessed week đđđđ
Congratulations on your engagement! I love how real you are in your videos, not many people would have shared a story about how their makeup may have not looked the best at a party for them.
I just bought a bunch of makeup for under $60. And it was everything I wanted. Better to just buy stuff than to buy an advent calendar.
If Iâm gonna spend this kind of money on a CT advent calendar, Iâd rather just go straight to the site and pick out my own items lol Though it does make a cute little jewelry box
Next year you should branch out into other types of calendars (pets, homegoods, food...) By the way, you are looking gorgeous, not tired looking at all!
Iâve been waiting for this one!! đ
A few years ago my boyfriend & I went to a bowling party for one of our friends & I was really into liquid lipstick. Needless to say by the end of the night when I had looked in the mirror I only had lipstick around my lips not even on them đ No one could tell me it had worn off đ€ŠđŒââïž
My husband said, "tell her to look up Wooly Willy." That's the toy he had as a kid and it sounds very similar to your toy!!
I'm always waiting for Alexandria to make her own advent calendar. Things she would like to receive from affordable brands maybe! That would be great! So far the only advent calendar that I liked, it was the ELF calendar. She has thought me not to get scam by companys.
I've had so many versions of Wooly Willy over the years. đ It really is weird when you think about it...but we had fun with it!
They now have different shades of the pillow talk lips. I absolutely love her skincare! Saved my face from adult acne issues I was having. The balm cleanser is absolutely amazing!
There was a version of the advent calendar that came with the new CT holiday palette. Theresa is Dead got that version if you want to see. I think that version is what the top compartment is for.
Please can you do an up to date eye tutorial!! The eyeliner/blacky goodness on your peepers is something I would luuuve to do on myself!!!
That game show youâre referring to is called Letâs Make a Deal & itâs such a fever dream
I love that setting spray honestly! It helped to keep my makeup on while I was performing in a play and taking my mask on and off constantly. My main thought for this calendar is that items should have all been full size. If it's going to cost $200 then there should be like $400 amount of product.
My daughter is 27 and LOVES those energy drinks â€
Just started watching video, dont get jitters and cut yourself on your choice of tool today đ I get extremely excited when I get to see a new video from ya yayđđđđâ€â€â€â€
That game show was âLetâs Make a Dealâ
I grew up watching old reruns of the original show from the 70âs on TV Land, it was hilarious.
You should compile the best finds from all the calendars and do a list of 12-25 products and why you like them. A lot of people wonât buy the calendars but really value your opinion when trying new products. Also, once youâre done with calendars this year, will you tell us which one you liked best? I know they get a lot of hate typically in reviews for all the reasons you mention here and in other videos, but I would love to know which one you like best! Love your videos!
Ur hair looks so cute !!! I personally donât think that calendar is worth it. I wish theyâd make one with just lip products! Maybe they do and I donât know lol. Love ur videos!!! I live in Richmond and will for sure one day make it to ur store!!! Been dying to go there but just havenât went hardly anywhere since covid and health issues. One day!!! đ
Lived in Richmond for a few years while hubby and I attended EKU!! đ
I saw a couple gift sets with just !ip products at Sephora or ULTA. Can't recall which.
@@connie4937 Hi! Ok thanks!!
@@harleygirl8527 elf has an all lip calendar..
@@tamaraw3620 Thank you so much!
I can't stop thinking about the last time I wore red lipstick and took my mask off and looked like I was a vampire!
Honestly this is my favorite hair look I've seen on her. SO cute
the expectation is high! i've been waiting for this calendar! hope it goes well! đ€
edit: not quite underwhelmed.. just whelmed.
looking forward to rest of the series! xx
Oh yes girl this chest is exactly the same as last year EXCEPT for the handles..(my thought on that is they didn't sell all of last year's so they took the chests and switched the crystals to stars instead)
I got last year's and this year's as well and was disappointed just like you.. I mean I love the items.. well... the full sized items, but yeah it's a pretty nice, but expensive, advent calendar. I am hoping they are going to be doing mystery boxes again soon.. I missed them last week đ„đ„ ughhh... all in all I really like the CT advent calendars. âŁâŁâŁ
I haven't been able to afford a Advent calendar this year due to covid. So it's great being able to live through you â€ïžđ.. Hello from South Carolina.
If you think about it, Advent calendars are all just crappy trial sizes for regular price. You're better off buying something you actually like in a full tube đ you're still saving money compared to buying the calendar
I just moved to SC! Myrtle Beach. It takes some getting use to. I would rather buy something I need then spend money on the samples. You are not the only one who has had to cut out things because of covid and just life in general! Have a blessed holiday!!!!
Ummmm can we just take a moment to acknowledge how GORGEOUS you look!?
The magnet game was one of those things you can buy at Keoger or supermarket games that hang off the shelves in random aisles to be impulse buys for kids. I had all of them, like the board with plastic cover that you can draw on, the paint by number stained glass things and the magnet hair one, silly putty... I'm from Indiana so got lots in common in this area. đđ
âLetâs go ahead and get the disappointment over with and then we can move onâ thatâs a mood
The bright side of all the squeeze tubes: Alexandra will never have to do errands for samples before a flight. She has tons of travel size stuff ready to go
Magnet hair man was 100% a 90s kid thing. They were always in like, gift bags from parties and stocking stuffers.
Girrrrl! I'm tellin ya, use the Neutrogena spray tan. Spray it on, rub it in and after a cpl hours it looks amazing! You don't have to rinse off and it doesn't stain clothes or feel sticky. Doesn't stain hands after washing either đ Legit, life changing!
Sis your hair is cute! And congrats on the engagement!!!!! God bless yâall in Jesus name!
I would love to see a video (maybe in the start of the new year) where you show how many of different products you got from all of your advent calendars...
Like of the 25 advent calendars you got 20 lipstick, 15 lip liners, 5 moisturisers or something like thatđ€·ââïž
And if you don't have all the products, you could go through your videos, and note it down, than just do a summary videođ
YES! About to do something I really don't want to do and then CZcams notifies me that Alexandria has a new advent video. I do love my skills in procrastination,
I'm in love with the packaging...I would keep it and make my own advent calendar next time.
I love you girl!! You're absolutely amazing! Hope youre having a wonderful day!
Love ya!
Did you know Birchbox did a Collab with Wander Beauty? đ There's you another subscription box! They're after you lol
Does anyone else like to go back and watch her old ones from last year her old Advent calendars she always seems so happy and cheerful in Christmassy trying to find anyway to get into the Christmas spirit haven't found it yet
Advent calendars are the parent to Mystery Boxes. Lots of excitement for the surprise followed by âWell dang that wasnât what I was hoping for.â
Beautiful Box! You can always slap a Mirror in that baby with one of the 1000"s I'm sure you have, with some glue or double sided sticky Velcro. If ppl are going to actually use the box, than that's a good amount of storage in there for makeup or jewelry. đ
That hole at the top of the advent calendar is bizarre⊠đ I donât know why they would design it like that.
I love it when you say âoooo okâ when youâre surprised lol
It's called "Let's Make a Deal" Wayne Brady still hosts it, and my gf and I watch every week day. I adore that costumes are just expected lol.
me starting the video: "if this is $200, it better have all full sized products"
me after the video: "what is with all the samples/travel sizes? in a $200 advent calendar.. at this point you're paying for the name, not the products inside."
Legit same stuff you get free with a $35 purchase.
I watched someone open Dior advent and OMG, it was mostly stickers hahaha đ€Ł
Idk what these companies are thinking, actually they arenât thinking at all with these advents this yearâŠso sad
It was Let's Make A Deal!! The show is alot older than the Wayne Brady era!!!
Advent calendar season is the best!
Enjoyable as ever!! Ordered the glossy box cause of your other video and so glad I did cause it sold out! Mine should be getting here tomorrow đ
I just watched your 2020 Charlotte Tilbury calendar unboxing about 20 minutes ago. This was meant to be! Xxx
Was it a lot of the same stuff?
@@meganbell1316 yeah, very very similar! It was the original pillow talk lip liner and lipstick. The final day was the setting spray too.
Full honesty. Never heard of Charlotte Tilbury until I started watching Alexandria's videos. Out of the blue I've started seeing ads for CT on tv. Every time I see the commercials I hear Alexandria say Charlotte Tilbury in that voice she does. Every. Single. Time.
I agree with making your own Advent calendar, I know you would make a great one đ â€ïž.Maybe you can Frankenstein one from all the ones you already have with products you already have as a prototype lol.
I want to see this FrankenCalendar video
You should buy the By Terry Advent Calendar. It is expensive yes, but the contents inside are so good! You get so many full-sized and travel-sized products and they are all quality products. Nine of the products are full-sized!
When I think of Charlotte Tilbury I do think of pillow talk and the magic cream, but I also mainly think of their eyeshadow quads. I can't believe in 2 years of this calendar there hasn't been a single quad!
Maybe worth $89 but definitely not worth $200, at least to me. But I love watching all the advent calendar videos!!! â€â€â€
I love your story about the lip liner. That is for real something that happens in my life đłđ€Ș
Definitely something should have been placed in the top compartment but i liked this one! I would use it to display too.. so cute.. Love the content with many different items for an entire glam day. Moisture, primer, complete eye look and lip style finish with setting spray. Well thought out and special in my opinion! I absolutely would say yes to do this one again next year!
Love your videos! So excited to see what's coming up next, teehee!
I feel like this one was way overpriced. $200 is more money than I could spend and to me I didn't think it was worth it.
Congratulations on your engagement!!
You are such a joyous person! As an English person I have tried many of her products. Personally I think her stuff is overrated. The magic cream broke me out - effectively I paid ÂŁ79 for spots đ
Yes ! Pillow talk has multiple color shades in it
That Game show is Letâs Make a Deal.
Fun Fact: still airs daily during late morning along with the Price is Right đ
Your videos always prove to me that these Advent calendars are NEVER worth the money! đđđ There is no reason why Charlotte Tilbury couldnât put a small palette in there! So frustrating!
I love CT! Her magic cream does wonders for my skin but itâs so expensive đ
I have heard great things! The last bottle I had of it I gave to a friend so Ive never really tried it out!
@@Alexandria-Ryan I just saw that youâre giving the one you got to a friend, i really think you should try it! I typically have dull, dry looking skin and after a couple weeks of using it my skin was so glowy and plump and healthy looking! However if you do insist on sending to a friend we can be pen pals đ
@@sierram6225 I adore it but it smells like Rose so she won't like it lol
I love that setting spray during the summer it really helps me not sweat off my eyebrows lol
A mirror would be cute but also it looks like a cute jewelry or makeup box! I'd keep and use it! đđ
Never tried CT, mainly because I feel it's way overpriced. This advent calender definitely doesn't seem like it's worth the price and as for the top, well a quad eyeshadow palette would have been a nice touch.
I'm not a "festive" adult. HOWEVER this series of yours has been a tradition in my life for years now..
I passed on CT this year. I kept last year's box to store some of my jewelry in.. I'm making my way through the Shoppers DM 25 day one, so far so good! Congrats again on the đ!!
Infinite X's & O's from #Newfoundland #canada đ€đđšđŠ
I had the magnetic bald man game as a child too! It was a hit in England in the mid 90's đ
Honestly the magic cream I don't notice it do anything for my skin but when I put foundation on afterwards it always looks absolutely incredible. I'm actually contemplating spending a $100 on it just so that my makeup will look that great every time
Get it on sale :)
My husband and I watch these together and I won't be able to watch this with him until tomorrow! Nooooo!
We love these advents. I watch your unboxings too and I'm hoping I can get him hooked on those as well!
Have happy holidays everyone!
What a cool husband!
Pillow talk og is too light for me. The Pillow talk medium is my lips but better. And I'm the same tan as you. You'll look beautiful in it.
I do like that you can use it on top of dresser for jewelry, makeup or any hair bands, clips, etc. I like đ
I always look forward to this series ! I was torn on ordering her advent calendar! I do want to try the crystal serum !!!
I think this series has convinced me to never buy one of these đ I'd rather just buy what I want when it's on sale.
Hey Alexandria!! Quick question for you.. do you by any chance sell any of the beauty products you get and don't/won't use on poshmark? If you don't can you pleaseeeeeeeeee start!!!??? You have so many amazing products that one person could never possibly use so why not make some money off it right!!!??? Lol đ đ€Ł
You have lucky friends and family! I would be so excited to receive a little pot of that cream from you or any other things that you give your friends and family!! I love how generous you are!! đđ
That bald man game was the best thing ever! Nowadays so many kids only play with toys/games that are just expensive, complicated, and all tech based that don't teach them anything... I know that a lot of people say the bald man is "boring" but its not only funny but got kids interested in science and how it worked.... bald man for life!
It was called Wooly Willy.
