I bought the Rare beauty blush set last year and the minis are the same size. Yes, they’re small but the amount of product you need, I feel like it’s better to get a mini than a full size because I will never run out of that blush! I also just bought the set for this year because I wanted to try more colors but not have to buy full size since their so big! But also love your set reviews! V helpful!
I loved this video and how you break down the value of each set which makes it easy on us! I shopped off your picks yesterday from Ulta and had a blast! Thank you for all your input you look beautiful as usual and I always look forward to your next video.
Thank you so much for your feedback! I really appreciate your kind comment! 🥰💗 I can’t tell you how much it means that you take the time to watch my videos. I hope you have the best week!
Every video I look at the top you’re wearing and think “this is her color!” But then the next video comes and I think the same thing. You just look good in every color! Love this eye look so much! I hope you’re having a great day! 😊
I love the breakdown you give on the prices vs product amount. You truly know your thing, someone like you needs a brand with all your attention to detail in all your reviews💗💗💗💗💗
This is hands down the best 'holiday sets' video I've seen to date. The way you break down the value of being good or not is brilliant. I would definitely like to see more of these please.
Sephora Holiday Sets that I'm getting are: - Sephora Favorites Holiday Sparkly Clean Beauty Kit, Holiday Makeup Must Haves - Rare Beauty Mini Blush & Glow 4- Piece Set -> great way to try them and I rather try them that way since I never tried these before - Tarte Best Of Maracuja Juicy Lips Set, Iconic Lashes and Eyeliner Best Sellers Set - Glow Recipe Best Of Glow Wishlist Kit -> I won't use the strawberry products in this but everything else I love in this set - GXVE All Eyes On Me Mascara and Eyeliner Set - Drybar Blowout With A Twist Kit -> the Hot Toddy Protectant Mist I do love from Boxycharm and it was my go to
The GXVE mascara is SO GOOD! It's honestly tied with the Tower 28 one for my favorite mascara at the moment. And I know that you love the Tower 28 one as well. So I really think you'll like the GXVE one. Can't wait to hear your thoughts!
I do love this video and your picks. However. YOU LOOK REALLY STUNNING!!! Shorter hair, chocolatey-caramely color, makeup, that neon sweater on you. OMG! You look so beautiful!! Big hugs!!
I am very underwhelmed by the sets this year. I noticed the values were not there as well. I do still want the Rare beauty set though, for the 2 exclusive shades in it. I love having all the mini limited edition/set exclusive blushes and highlights they’ve done from years past. But i do want to mention, idk why people are randomly shocked by the mini size. Their minis have been the same size since like 2021 sets i got. No size difference 🤷🏻♀️ and i still have those 🫣 have not finished them. They last! Lol.
I haven’t watched the video yet ( I will, promise!) BUT I just had to comment on how good the neonish green color looks on you!!! With your hair and complexion! On my gosh, beautiful!!
Love these videos and absolutely love your value breakdowns. I do think it’s important, as you said in another video, that the travel size tends to be less value per oz compared to full size. The Rare Beauty value does work out based on their other travel size products available at Sephora, so I see both sides! But love love these videos! Thank you!
I bought a few of the Tarte gift sets to actually gift out. Though I purchased them at Macys because they just had 15% off and I had Macys cash. I bought the Sol De Janeiro sprays, Laneige lip mask set and Rare Beauty liquid blush set also for gifts. The RB blushes are smaller but I had received a sample size awhile back from Sephora or maybe it was part of a lip oil/blush combo but it was super dinky in size. Way smaller than the blushes in this gift set.
andrea, you look ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!! that color looks soooo gorgeous on you, and your makeup looks beautiful!!! i started my christmas shopping in august already. i would love to get a sephora favorites set. i know that the rare beauty set isn’t so much of a value, but i reallllly want to try them, and i don’t wear liquid blush as often as i wear creams. i always LOVE the tarte maracuja lip set, and i loveeee the fig shade, and i would honestly keep two and gift the other half to my cousin who loves them as well. ooooh, i wish i could get the big glow recipe set!!! i think my mom and i would really love to share it, tbh. i definitely want to pick up the gxve mascara set and eyeliner. everyone i know LOVES this mascara!!! i want to get one of her blushes!!! i hope you film more of these and make an ulta one too!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Also, I like the Amika dry shampoo! It's a solid one. I still haven't found a HG, but I've repurchased that one several times, especially on sale/with a deal.
Re tarte double take eyeliner, wow it lasts on the eye & in the package! I dont know how, but that liner lasts foreverrrrr- ive been using it 4-5x/week since last fall and it just recently started showing signs of being done. I have been so impressed, and i dont use the beige liner on my waterline, but it does cover a red spot on my eyelid very nicely, it's like a precision concealer lol.
I picked up the sparkly clean set this year - it had multiple products that I was very interested in and in full sizes so I felt that it was worth it! Some of the others I didn’t feel like were a great deal.
I really trust your opinion you haven’t lead me astray, I’ve tried products you’ve used or mentioned and they’ve been good, thanks for these videos, I look forward to more of this one.
Andrea, I've been wanting to tell you - I think you'd love the estate "most wanted" lip balm, it's similar to tarte maracuja lippies but much better all around: less expensive retail price AND the estate is bigger, gorgeous oil based formula with a beautiful shine but not the vinyl look, and the shade I received was a prettier version of whichever shade the poorly labeled tarte mauve is, & it's a doefoot tube not that ridiculous stick, and the formula is a soft balmy cream. $12. If they had spf, they'd be perfect lol
My sister is 31 and she loves Glow Recipe. She says it actually works for her. She doesn’t really get acne, she has normal skin, so maybe it helps those that don’t need a lot of help? She worked closely with a derm in her 20s and she was able to mostly keep good skin since then. Previously she had oily, acne prone skin.
So Tarte had another holiday set for $54 with 3 6pan shadow palettes and 1 cheek& highlighter palette. I ended up getting that one but I saw the 3 face palettes and that was decent enough for gifting. The 3 cheek palettes are similar in tones yes but suit mine and my sisters skin tones. The main diff being which palettes have shimmer and which are matte only which I liked. The eyeshadows set, the colors seemed very rich and vibrant and I fell in love with the fall tones of the golds and bronzes. And the lil star stamps added to the lux look. Reminded me of the Nars palette. Ends up being like $12+ each
How funny, I'm a "I'm not buying gifts quite yet," all the way through November! NGL, it doesn't work out the best. 😂 Love these videos! I have 8 nieces so I'm the person that buys these and breaks them up. Works fantastic!
Oh my gosh you’re definitely the favorite relative of your nieces, I just know it! 😂😍 I have six but they are all pretty little so I can’t wait to see if they will be into makeup one day so I can buy them all the fun things!
Part 2 featuring the newest sets at Sephora is up on my channel. 🥰 th-cam.com/video/GXJRD9obv34/w-d-xo.htmlsi=iQ0dQIwN-FstmKOg

Every video I look at the top you’re wearing and think “this is her color!” But then the next video comes and I think the same thing. You just look good in every color! Love this eye look so much! I hope you’re having a great day! 😊

Your hair and eyes look incredible today! You always look good, but dang girl! Your haircut is so stylish and your eyeshadow is poppin'!
I bought the Rare Beauty set and the blushes are the same size as the kit I got a couple years ago.
Oh wow that's good to know! Thank you for sharing this!
I got the Tarte lip set. The shade is up my alley. I keep these at my desk and go through them pretty quick.

You look stunning! Your makeup and that shirt color look so good! 🩷
Your eye lewk is absolutely stunning!!!
Some of Tarte’s “values” of sets is insane!
It’s crazy because they can’t even back it up a little bit! It’s like they just pull the value out of nowhere.
You look gorgeous!! I love holiday sets. Thanks for the great breakdown. Hope you are doing well.💕
Thank you so much for the sweet comment! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch! 🥰
Your eyeshadow is beautiful the more I look at it the more I'm wondering what you used❤❤❤❤
I do love this video and your picks. However. YOU LOOK REALLY STUNNING!!! Shorter hair, chocolatey-caramely color, makeup, that neon sweater on you. OMG! You look so beautiful!! Big hugs!!
I would love to hear your take on the NARS liquid blush set.
Your makeup reminds me of the latte makeup trend please do a tutorial beautiful 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗❤
Happy Sunday! I've been awaiting your recommendations.
Thank you so so much for watching! 🥰 I really appreciate it!

Always love your reviews on the holiday sets so yes please on more videos!
Yay! I would love to film more. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for this. It’s really helpful!
Love GXVE! mascara is soooo good
Oh good to know! I need to try it! 😍

Love this makeup look! Thanks for the break down we all needed this!

Hey Andrea! Love your videos! I already picked up the tarte face palette set and the Fenty lip gloss set!
I returned my Tate Beauty blush set. I was excited but when it came it was too small.
This is my favorite time of year to buy makeup because of all the holiday sets!
Amika dry shampoo is great! But I use the Eva NYC one more often because of the price point
I love this look!
Thank you for your sweet comment!
The Amika dry shampoo and CT setting spray are definitely worth trying!
Thank you for sharing! That’s really good to know!
Please do Ulta also
Um. I’m obsessed with this makeup look.
Ahhh thank you! You’re so kind!
Love these types of videos! Please do continue as more drop the next few months! ❤
the sparkly clean beauty set has a different shade of the Saie blush now 😢 i wanted to try Spicy and that Merit lipstick!
