It’s so frustrating to see this calendar not even putting one of their eyeshadow quads!! Put that in instead of the glow wand! It was nice to see them using multi pillow talk products that can be used in tandem together
Only 3 full size products in a 12 day advent calendar for that price?? That's appalling! Sorry to say but CT is certainly laughing at people who are fool enough to buy this 😂
I'm not sure about the pricing of this, you can get the pillow talk lipstick, balm and liner in a set (which includes a gloss) for £40.. so you're getting the other 9 products for £130 and a lot are minis
Great unboxing, but I don’t understand why people buy this, it’s not great value for all the mini’s or small products. I much prefer her mystery boxes, they are great value!
I was waiting for someone to show this in persoon and so good to see your video online this morning. 😊 the design is nice but the price versus what’s inside is ridiculous. And if people do not stop buying it it will never improve. I got cult beauty which is so much more worth my money. Thx for reviewing. ❤
Still no palette...really unfortunate! I agree with you, better selections this year. It is CT, it will sell....a lot! Let's see just how popular it is this year though, easily the number 1 viewed unboxing on the MissBoux channel in 2023. Can it repeat that? Flawless presentation Karen, Thank you very much for your efforts! 💖
I've never got this as I think the mystery boxes are the best value from this brand with full sizes - let's face it we all have all of these products now. She needs something new!! Great unboxing by you - as always!! Loving your content!
This advent calendar is I think one of the best as an "intro to the brand" but for existing fans it offers very little in terms of value or excitement, especially with the minis. As I did last year, I'll be waiting for their Boxing Day sale where some of their sets were up to 40% off... :)
The box would be good to give to a little girl who can put her treasures in and I’m sure would love it :) I’ve given my other ones to charity shops and they said usually it’s little girls who want them 😊
Love the design, it should be reused to make a Valentine calendar ☺ I don't mind the pencil and eyeliner not being full size, I don't think I've ever finished a pencil before (one of my friends did fully finish her pillow talk lip pencil, so maybe I need to work harder on mine). I've had a mini mini of the serum and I love the scent so much, I wish the cream had the same scent ! But since quite a few people don't like rose scent, I guess it's better they have a different scent. So I'm really tempted in getting the full size serum, just for the scent, it makes my morning routine more relaxing. Based on the size of the products, I do think the calendar should be cheaper.
Whenever I see an advent calender from a make up brand, I feel the true value is in their make up products rather than their skincare. It's just my opinion. An eyeshadow quad would have been a better inclusion than the toner and serum.
I was hoping to get another brush. I was hoping for new drops, like her new revival face wash or under eye patches- would been nice to get the new mascara she just dropped. I love the box, I find it is perfect to hold my CT stuff.. this year box though looks a bit less room in drawers. I don’t want a shadow quad- I was hoping for magic varnish. It’s great for people who don’t already have CT, but those of us with a decent sized collection it’s a bit underwhelming. I was looking forward to the drop, But when I saw the contents listed on her app yesterday, i hit the pause button. Last year she sold Christmas stocking with 7 products , I hope she does that again.. thx for vid.
Thanks for another great vlog! What a great insight you provide with all these great Advent Calendars. One thing, I am noticing is that most of the packaging and image for these calendars aren't really working towards the Christmas theme, wouldn't you agree? I think they would be very tempting to purchase if they strongly carried the 'Christmas Theme'. 👍👍🥰
Thank you for purchasing and sharing the unboxing with us. I personally think this one is overpriced for what you get. Although the products are iconic, there should be more full sizes or they should do 25 doors.
Definitely not as good value as many of the others, but good if you are a fan or want to introduce someone to the brand. The box is really very pretty. Seems like a great place to store mini skincare if you can take the inserts out of the boxes? Thank you for your unboxing and clarifying all the sizes.
I ordered this as u have ran out of a couple of items and noticed they were in here so I thought might as well disappointing with the lipstick I don’t do red I like her mystery box so hopefully one will be out for Xmas again x
I’m obbessed with charlotte tilbury but with this box it’s not a big saving😞 (for example mystery box 98 pounds worth 198 pounds of sth and has more full products). Thanks for the video 🤗 this way i was going to buy hareods but i missed, than but space nk and flannels🤗
My opinion about advent calendars(especially brands) is to pamper loyal&future customers for the festive holidays. The prices are pretty steep and getting steeper every year. But I feel that the buyer doesn’t get ‘the WoW’ anymore like the years before. The calendars doesn’t feel like a great bargain anymore. Most calendars aren’t worth it anymore. Although nice products in this CT calendar but No. I rather buy the products I really want via website instead of bundle of standard products. Love your honest review.
It only gives you about a 10-15% discount. Most calendars give you more for your money. I did like the pillow talk color scheme, but it was a bit disappointing overall.
I really don’t think they’ve put much effort at all into this calendar. Perhaps they aren’t selling as well. But to me, I’d rather take £170 and go buy full size products I want from CT.
It’s a very expensive Advent Calendar for mostly small sizes. No eyeshadow palette? I feel it’s not worth the value. Good products. But, I wouldn’t spend that. Beautiful Calendar! I would absolutely use as a jewelry box! TFS! ❤❤
The box is lush but wouldnt spend £170 on it, i always think CT advent is extortionate for what you get. Never that many CT products id actually want tbh so not exciting for me. x
Not that I would buy this Calendar, but I really feel like the lipstick should’ve all been full-size and a mascara too. I will stick with the mystery boxes. Got the lip oil in a mystery box and I don’t like it either. It’s actually drying and just sits on the lips.
I love Charlotte Tilbury but this calendar is still so expensive for what you get but I guess it's a good way to try her stuff if you're new to the brand 🤷
I just don't understand the CT advent calendars. Charlotte Tilbury has such good deals every now and then on their site with 3 full size freebies etc. Which makes the yearly calendar just very disappointing... 🙁
I was also disappointed with this calendar! I already have all the cosmetics from it so I'm wondering... when do the Christmas products appear? I'd be more interested in them
Charlotte tilbury is a hook, to me the price of this is shocking, i hate her lippys and most of her eye products, they are all too warm toned she hasnt moved on from 2017 xxx thank you for video karen, box is beautiful though 😂 xx
Not impressed with this. Thanks for showing it. It says it’s worth 240 approx for 170. You’d be better picking up what you really want from CT and using their regular 20% or 15% off. I’ve gone for Space NK this year x
NOT impressed 😮 A full size magic cream and an eyeshadow palette is an absolute basic must! The mark up on these products and giving us basic sample sizes is beyond GREED. I loved CT but is not where I will be spending my money anymore. Thank you for the review.
Absolutely shocking the sizes, now would be an ideal time to throw in a new product. It will probably go on sale later i think. Nobody is willing to splurge esp on minis
The C T hype is finally over! Everyone knows that the ( very tacky light) packaging is a total mess after a few times of using.. And the quakity of the products themselves can't keep up with the ridiculous pricing.. It was all about the 'be a supermodel' / boudoir/ darling marketing.. But ( almost) nobody falls for this anymore.we can't be Pillow talking forever😂
I like your presentation but I for sure will NOT spend $250 on a bunch of trial sized out of trends products. I’d rather invest this money on ETF likes VOO and get an avg. 27% return annually 😝
You're always so gracious and that's a compliment. However, compared to say the Harrods advent calendar where you get a lot of full sized luxury products in 24 days for great value compared to what you pay, this continues to be such a cheap skate calendar. I mean, come on, not even the pencils are full size? And still only 12 products? Shame on you, CT.
Not a fan of these advent calendars. Too expensive and there is more effort in the design than the actual products chosen. Why is there no palette when you see one in other advents and boxes. I don't like to be negative and I guess I'm just not into high price makeup. Now skincare is a whole other thing with me. I only watch Charoltte Tilbury calendars because you are unboxing it. If I could afford it and I know the products are very good, I would get it for the beautiful box. Love all your unboxings especially Advent Calendar Season!!! Thanks for sharing all these calendars. 💜💜
I don’t know why ppl still buying ct advent calendar !! Those calendars are with the SAME product every year , no creativity in them and with absolutely no value !!
As much as I like Charlotte Tilbury her calendar is a rip off. She could put a full size setting spray in, switch out some of the same ole products and even one of her small palettes.
I’m still disappointed by the small size products. It’s a one brand calendar, really pricey and they should deliver more full sizes in my opinion.
Totally!
Agreed! They make so much money all year off of their customers, like just make the calendars worth it!
There should be an eye shadow palette for the price plus all the products should be full size.
It’s so frustrating to see this calendar not even putting one of their eyeshadow quads!! Put that in instead of the glow wand! It was nice to see them using multi pillow talk products that can be used in tandem together
Only 3 full size products in a 12 day advent calendar for that price?? That's appalling! Sorry to say but CT is certainly laughing at people who are fool enough to buy this 😂
I think I'd just take the money and buy what I want, just personally.
I think this with every beauty calendar, you just end up paying extortionate amount for samples
I'm not sure about the pricing of this, you can get the pillow talk lipstick, balm and liner in a set (which includes a gloss) for £40.. so you're getting the other 9 products for £130 and a lot are minis
I agree, not worth it unless you really just use CT’s products
Great unboxing, but I don’t understand why people buy this, it’s not great value for all the mini’s or small products. I much prefer her mystery boxes, they are great value!
I was waiting for someone to show this in persoon and so good to see your video online this morning. 😊 the design is nice but the price versus what’s inside is ridiculous.

It’s a bit underwhelming I think small box and full of travel sizes £170 that’s crazy it’s a no from me xx ❤
Love the design, it should be reused to make a Valentine calendar ☺ I don't mind the pencil and eyeliner not being full size, I don't think I've ever finished a pencil before (one of my friends did fully finish her pillow talk lip pencil, so maybe I need to work harder on mine).

I think it’s better to spend £170 on CT products - utilising some of their bundles. Probably the same price saving overall if you do it that way.
Whenever I see an advent calender from a make up brand, I feel the true value is in their make up products rather than their skincare. It's just my opinion. An eyeshadow quad would have been a better inclusion than the toner and serum.
I Thought they’d throw in a sample of her new perfumes. Adorable box for sure!! Presentation is always well done ❤ TFS Karen!
cute little calendar , shame there wasn't a palette in there though.
Thankyou so much for sharing this with us xoxo
Charlotte always has such amazing calendar designs!🥰
this is definitely a stranger of calenders in terms of price/value
Amazing calendar.

The packaging is immaculate.
Mine is coming tomorrow very excited expensive but I'm treating myself this to go under the tree for xmas day! All ways wanted one.😊

I know there only a few calendar that have been updated or good this although some have been outstanding thanks for unboxing Karen
thank you for this video, i'm not from uk and planing to buy it with some friends. sharing the advent callendars is very helpful. thanks once again 🙏
Is it more worth it when I get 30 percent off?!xx
The drawers ❤❤❤❤
Hey did you buy the look fantastic advent calendar and is it worth it xx
She has a video with it and it is gorgeous!
She has a video with it and it is gorgeous!
She has a video with it and it is gorgeous!
Its far more worth it than this xx
Thank you for purchasing and sharing the unboxing with us. I personally think this one is overpriced for what you get. Although the products are iconic, there should be more full sizes or they should do 25 doors.
Hi Do you know if Debenhams are bringing out an advent calendar this year?
I have the money for these calendars yes I manifest it:)
Nice looking calendar, bit pricy for what you get! Thanks for sharing! 👍❤️
Definitely not as good value as many of the others, but good if you are a fan or want to introduce someone to the brand. The box is really very pretty. Seems like a great place to store mini skincare if you can take the inserts out of the boxes? Thank you for your unboxing and clarifying all the sizes.
The mystery boxes are better than the calendar 😳
I ordered this as u have ran out of a couple of items and noticed they were in here so I thought might as well disappointing with the lipstick I don’t do red I like her mystery box so hopefully one will be out for Xmas again x
So expensive for all the minis and no palette 😢 Flannels or John lewis box looks better for the price
I’m obbessed with charlotte tilbury but with this box it’s not a big saving😞 (for example mystery box 98 pounds worth 198 pounds of sth and has more full products). Thanks for the video 🤗 this way i was going to buy hareods but i missed, than but space nk and flannels🤗

nope( not for that price😅 but thanks for the video anyway😊

Not that I would buy this Calendar, but I really feel like the lipstick should’ve all been full-size and a mascara too. I will stick with the mystery boxes.
Got the lip oil in a mystery box and I don’t like it either. It’s actually drying and just sits on the lips.
Pretty box but not worth the money, the setting spray last year was £35 for 200ml, this year I paid £49, A huge 40% increase.
Hi! Too much expensive for 12 products (and only 3 full size)..😢
I love Charlotte Tilbury but this calendar is still so expensive for what you get but I guess it's a good way to try her stuff if you're new to the brand 🤷
That small lipstick is a deluxe sample I got with 100 Sephora points. I would never buy this calendar for the price.
I just don't understand the CT advent calendars. Charlotte Tilbury has such good deals every now and then on their site with 3 full size freebies etc. Which makes the yearly calendar just very disappointing... 🙁
I'm interested in the calendar from the company The Say It With Advent Calendar 2024 but not from this brand you can check
I was also disappointed with this calendar! I already have all the cosmetics from it so I'm wondering... when do the Christmas products appear? I'd be more interested in them
Kinda stupid it cost 170 for a value of 243 and other calendars cost less with a value of more and are 24 days and double doors ect
Too pricey would have been nice if a pallet was included Just my thoughts 🤷♀️
Charlotte tilbury is a hook, to me the price of this is shocking, i hate her lippys and most of her eye products, they are all too warm toned she hasnt moved on from 2017 xxx thank you for video karen, box is beautiful though 😂 xx
Exactly!!

Absolutely shocking the sizes, now would be an ideal time to throw in a new product. It will probably go on sale later i think. Nobody is willing to splurge esp on minis
Absolute Rip Off !
Very mini and very small!!
this is much better than last year's version. a good one.
Beautiful and definitely better than last year's but for this price, it is a no for me.
I bought the very first advent she released, I think the calendar’s have gone down hill since then. She should do better
I would return, not worth the price at all like Jo Malone mostly minis.
Jammer altijd de zelfde kleuren als je er niet van houd heb je niks aan deze kalender
The C T hype is finally over! Everyone knows that the ( very tacky light) packaging is a total mess after a few times of using.. And the quakity of the products themselves can't keep up with the ridiculous pricing.. It was all about the 'be a supermodel' / boudoir/ darling marketing.. But ( almost) nobody falls for this anymore.we can't be Pillow talking forever😂
They are hoping people buy foe a gift without looking at value.
There is no one eyeshadow palette, quite disappointing!
I wouldn’t say it worth the money, won’t be buying this one.
To much Pillow talk 😂
I like your presentation but I for sure will NOT spend $250 on a bunch of trial sized out of trends products. I’d rather invest this money on ETF likes VOO and get an avg. 27% return annually 😝
every year the same shit in this calendar

I mean, come on, not even the pencils are full size? And still only 12 products? Shame on you, CT.
I think it’s such a shame that CT don’t offer better value to their customers. I’ll never buy this. TBH CT isn’t a fav anymore.
Not a fan of these advent calendars. Too expensive and there is more effort in the design than the actual products chosen. Why is there no palette when you see one in other advents and boxes.

Alot of minis🙄🙄🙄
All glitz but little substance...very samey...no eye quad
So meh!!
I don’t know why ppl still buying ct advent calendar !! Those calendars are with the SAME product every year , no creativity in them and with absolutely no value !!
Gorgeous and very well curated.🩷 I've just ordered mine. Like you, I could do without another lip oil.
All i think when i see this is god what a greedy company who dont do more to make their customers happy so no thank you
This calendar is honestly so disappointing. Every year it is just bad
Not worth the money x
As much as I like Charlotte Tilbury her calendar is a rip off. She could put a full size setting spray in, switch out some of the same ole products and even one of her small palettes.
I feel like they are just being stingy now 😭😭
That's got to be the most disappointing calendar i've ever seen.
It's a no from me. Very underwhelming
Charlotte Tilbury is the Christmas Scrooge, definitely not worth the money compared to other calendars you have reviewed.
Charlotte i so overrated
