Do you think this is worth $225?
@@beautygirl9981 to review
After watching a UK channel do an unboxing of the Space Nk (similar price I think) I certainly don't think this is worth the money. In the Space Nk, there were full size A.Badder - Rich Cream, Olaplex hair product and I think a Dr B. Sturm cleanser. I could be getting a bit muddled up but I'm sure there are better value ones out there with more full sizes (or at least small not sample sizes). I do realise there are very lux brands in the Saks calender but it's still over priced...I get excited for beauty calendar unboxing season every year, partly because I can't afford most of them (full time carer to disabled child). However, I love luxury beauty products. So thanks to you and Alexandra Ryan, I get the excitement of watching you lovely ladies open them. Thank you so much for posting up enjoyable content. You make a worn out Mummy smile ❤
@@AHeatedMessand thank you ❤🎉
No
I don't think it is worth it.
Always love your advent calendar reviews.. makes me feel like Christmas is coming .. thanks again 😉
Love the advent calendar. Thanks for the video
Love watching your advent calendar videos! I wish they would include more full size items but I like the candles ❤
UK calendars are so much better you actually get full size products and a lot of the high end calenders have 30pkus products in them I think any calendar over $200/£200 should be band from putting sample sizes in there calendars and at least 50% or more should have to be full sizes
Woohoo! Advent calendar season!
My favourite advents at the moment is the selfridge's and the harvey nichols in the uk 🇬🇧 what you get for your money is amazing it's like £220 and worth over a £1000 incredible 😍😍😍😍😍
Saw Lauren Mae open the UK advent calendars and OMG, so much better. I can't believe Sak Fifth just boxed minature samples and sold it for $225.
I can't wait for the Dior advent calendar!
You would love the harvey nicks, space NK, Harrods and Selfridges UK calanders ❤😊
Love your reviews. You crack me up! Always read the directions for use. Lol
I was scared 🙈
So excited Advent season is back!!! 🎉❤
OMG how much I love so much your vlogs about advent calendar 😍
Thank you so much 😊🙏
11:11 "It's for up there" omg rofl, you're killing me 😂🤣
Just wanted to clarify 🥹
Like other posters have said… don’t buy advent calendars from American dept stores. They’re absolute trash. Charging for sample sizes is ridiculous. I’m in San Diego but I only buy advent calendars from the UK dept stores where you actually get full size luxury products. Cindy, love your reviews and I know you’re tied to the various SA’s and brand deals you have with these stores so you gotta do what you gotta do to secure the bag but go do a Space NK, Harrods, Liberty, Selfridges or Cult Beauty review already and deliver us from this American evil 😂 You can get all these samples from your SA’s or use the copious amount of promo codes out there without having to pony up $225.
The SpaceNK advent calendar is amazing…and free shipping at $50 and no tax…
Yes, like her reviews but a bit behind in what is going on in the beauty advent world. Those who know, know…and have left the US advents behind in the dust.
I am so excited for the next reviews, I watched all of the ones from last year 🥰
I'm a sucker of advent calendar, thank you for feeding. I really enjoyed your advent calendar last yr, especially the dyptique. From ph❤️
Hello, nice unboxing! Will you be doing the Dior unboxing when it releases? Super excited about that one...thnx & cheers ❤
Definitely 🥰🥰🥰
@@AHeatedMess thank you so much ❤️
I think the US beauty market is a few years behind the UK. Here, we've come a long way from companies trying to market so many samples as items we would pay exorbitant prices for! Last year was Cult Beauty for me, this year possibly Selfridges or Space NK- containing mostly full sized products.
Sold out now i was lucky to get one put the harrods fragrance advent was amazing £175 with over £1000 worth of perfumes ❤❤
There are many other luxury advent calendars at a lower cost that contain a few full size products & larger sample sizes. Thanks for reviewing!
When i was in the philippines im always excited with your advent calendar series..i thought im gonna buy one when i go to us..but now im here i think its just too expensive 😅 watching your vid for now is enough for me..thanks cindy ❤
I will never get over how well spoken you are
🥹🥹🥰
Queeeen of advent cakendars!🎉🎉🎉
🥹🥹🥹
great products!
Yes such a great variety 🤗
I enjoy watching these. I got 111 skin in my Ipsy/Boxycharm. I love their toning face wash
Yay I can’t wait to try it 🥰
Thank you Cindy. I love Advent season. TFS❤❤
I was hoping it would have Baccarat Rouge 540 like last time or have a sample of Delina eau de parfum but oh well. Looking forward to the Sephora and Armani advent calendars this year 😊Thanks for the unboxing and reviews❤❤
I think this is a rip-off. You are paying $225 to get samples/deluxe size. I am happy that I bought my beauty advent calendars from the UK. I highly recommend the space NK & Harrods
I also ordered the Harrods calendar and I am very pleased! I may order the Space NK
I absolutely agree UK advent calendars are the best!
Yep, I also purchased Space NK, Harrods and Selfridges and I’m in the US. These US advents are not even comparable. Bloomingdale’s partners with SpaceNK…and has a SpaceNK section so you would think they would improve their advent…nope.
I think that the one from Bloomingdale’s is better than this one .
YES! Agree. I am on the wait list for Harrods. Everything European is so much better than American.
The Christmas content I can get behind 👏
I like this one.
I follow Emmanuelle Alt; former editor in chief for Vogue Paris. She wore this blazer jacket that I loved and I found out it was a Balmain. I had to have one until I saw the price tag was $2695 at Neiman Marcus. I have bought Balmain’s advent calendar half off at Net-a-Porter; I love their hair mask. I love all their hair products so I am so happy that their sea salt spray is in the Saks Advent calendar. Who ever you gift that product to will be very happy you gave it to them.
And Magnolia flora from Gucci. I have the 3 minis, I do collection. I love them. ❤️❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷
Thanks for unboxing this advent calendar. Love both Roses candles, but will pass on this one.
111 comes in ipsy and other subscription boxes all the time.
Loved the gel, you made me laugh, 'up there'
The candles made me realize I’d actually love a fully candle/candle themed advent calendar. I adore candles in so many scents depending on the season/vibe plus they’re easy to regift if you don’t like the scent. I’m off to see if anyone makes one!
I reviewed the Voluspa candle advent calendars last year 🤗 czcams.com/video/cSd6YsKJ4vU/video.htmlsi=9DQNmdgI-PftlUbq
I love your comments admitting when you don’t know something…. Sensory gel😅😂😂😂❤ happy holidays❤
I was so confused 🥲
Always love your advent calenders reviews ❤️ 😊
Thanks for sharing. I think it's worth it. I just wish the fragrances were a little bigger.
😍 😍 😍
🥰🥰🥰
Omg ❤ can you tell me what nail colour you're wearing. And of its regular polish? I think I need it!
Unicorn chrome 🦄 amzn.to/3Q76MEA
I agree with others, it should have more full size products for that price
Thank you for doing these !! I loved last years from Saks but I think I will pass on this years.
I died at the cell sensory prep gel- I also thought it was some kind of lube for your lady bits for when you want to be frisky😂😂😂
Nice video
I love your nails! Are you using a polish or do you have press ons? They always look so perfect! I love the color and the shape! Beautiful!
Thank you so much! It’s nude dip powder with unicorn chrome powder on top 🦄🥰
111 skin is from a UK based plastic surgeon. Kevyn Aucoin died a number of years ago, but his brand is still around.
Please do an advent calendar unboxing from Bloomingdales 🙏🏼
Cute calendar i like this one more than the charlotte tilbury one
Why? It's filled with tiny samples.
First! Excited to watch the review!
Yay thanks so much for watching 🥰
I think my mind went where yours initially did on the sensory activating gel lol😂
the items I like are all sample sizes
111Skin is a luxury brand, but the products you'll find in advent calendars and subscription boxes are produced in China, while their full-priced retail products are made in Europe. It's been suggested that the Made In China versions are cheaper and lower quality (similar to what high-end brands do with the products they put in outlet stores), but I've never seen a comparison.
I've used several Philip B products over the years and all of them were amazing. Pricey, too. (Duh! 😅)
Did you like the rich cream ?
I hope you can show us the one from Neeman Marcus
Can I have the empty calendar box? I love boxes
Wondering if the sensory gel has multiple uses? 🤭😂
Idk if its worth it. Very confused on that invigorating gel you thought was well you know lol
I was scared 🥲
Value of 560? These calendars always give an absurd value 😅. Seems to be full of samples which is I guess pretty normal with these calendars. I wish Day 25 was the Diptyque candle and not a votive size.
The more I have seen high brands the more I see junk samples. They put a price on something that was given to them for samples for free.
This is not even with 50 dollars… it’s mostly free samples?
Very disappointing advent calender😐 Hope you recover the cost of purchase soon😅
I think most advent calendars are rip off's. I rather make my own and really enjoy it.
$225 for samples? Hard pass….the box is pretty though
These products are all products that Sak’s gets free from these vendors. Ridiculous that they are charging $225 for free samples!!!
If our economy wasn’t in the toilet most people wouldn’t mind paying the 225$. The products are decent.
I don't think this one is worth it.
Very chintzy not worth $225
This is totally NOT worth it
This is appalling!! It seems like they're all sample sizes. I'd be livid if I'd paid $225 for this load of old tosh, especially if I'd bought it for someone else.
Cindy, it’s for up there, not down there! 😂😂😂😂 I was following right along with you because at first I was thinking the same way! 🫣😭
I would not be impressed if I paid that money to just get a load of free samples!!! Definitely not worth the money!
I don’t believe it’s worth it, they getting stingy, big time , god
Doesn't look worth the money. Mostly are samples and not even travel minis.
Awful. Free samples.
$225 for a bunch of what should be free samples? Insane, especially when you look at what the UK is serving for the same or a little bit more money. I would NEVER buy this, just awful.
garbage, very unimpressed. the best item was the gucci flora, i'd return that for a refund.
I will never buy a advent calendar again - I should have bought AirPods instead- what a waste of money-
AirPods are essential 🥹
Pretty pricey, but still 1000xs better than the Chanel advent calendar 🗓️ ✅🗣️😂 I know, I know … but it was so bad that the effects take a while to wear off 😂
Seriously though, I’d like to try some of those samples for brands I only see on CZcams. I agree with you that the 3ml is way too small. And as much as Sturn costs she should give potential customers plenty to sample before making the huge investment in her products (which I’d never do after seeing reviews from dermatologists). Anyway, great video as always! Hard to believe we’re in the advent calendar era already 🎉
