Hey Guys! So we have the 3rd and most expensive Sephora Collection advent calendar! Do you guy think this deserves the title "premium" Let me know! Love ya💖
Alex, I found it on Kohls website, Sephora for Kohls....it says that it's a value of $167.00 and it lists EVERYTHING that it contains.
Hey! I absolutely love your videos and have been a fan since 2018 and I am getting the chance to visit your stores tomorrow morning and I’m so excited, l love when it advent calendar season so I can watch your videos! ❤
@@samanthadunn1106 Hi Samantha! I so wish I had seen your comment earlier, I would have made sure I was there to say Hi to you! Im so sorry I missed you, I stayed home to film today and im so sorry! Thank you so much for your support and hanging around so long! Thank you for coming to visit the stores! We have been soooo busy and we are very low on inventory so I hope they dont look too awful! I hope you get to stop back by again some day so we can meet! Have a wonderful day💖
@@Alexandria-Ryan it all good I thought you would be busy with all your advent calendars lol, but no I loved both of your stores and I bought one of your second and main candles (the Apple scent) and already started using it when I got home! I definitely will visit again and make sure to leave you a comment when I will be there so hopefully I can say hi.
I think the only thing they could have put in the last box to make it all better would have been $85 cash 😊😊
Too funny!! And true.
Clear lip gloss in a beauty box should be declared a crime. And clear nail polish, OMG!
🤣
😅
True 😂
You had me rolling with the best one liner ever! 😅 "Can you guys hear the echoing from all the empty promises from inside this box?" 😂
I was looking for this comment 🤣
I used to work for sephora and can confirm the Do not drink perfume is discontinued, we had it on sale around March. Not to worry about the expiration date because perfumes have a shelf life of around 3 years! Unfortunately, it cannot be bought anymore if not from resellers.
Sephora never fails to disappoint 😂
Why is this so funny? 😂 oh yeah because it’s true!
At least they are consistent 🤣🤣🤣
I'm a preschool teacher and I swear to God some of our paint brushes look higher quality than that eyeshadow brush.
The only thing I’ve learned this year from watching every ones advent calendars is that most of them are not even worth buying. Thank you 😊
Yep agree it has stopped me from ever buying one
Lauren Mae got the MFK scent advent and OMG! I couldn’t afford it but she got way more than $1,000 worth of product. So far, the only boxes I’ve seen anyone here with anything are a few of the perfume boxes. 💁🏼♀️ so totally agree!
@@thewanderingorphan that is so awesome
Just to let you know - I am from Poland and I found this calendar on the polish sephora website. It was originaly sold for 329PLN (83,72 USD), but is now at -25% sale. It's value is supposed to be 625PLN (159.03USD). There are also 6 5-star reviews. Hope that's interesting for you ❤️
It's interesting to me!
Kohls has the ad up for this even though it’s sold out; you remembered right - $167 value
(The photo in the ad has the whole fan deck of masks smack in the middle. Also can’t get the reviews to load.)
Thank you for sharing!
Is the perfume in Poland??
@@sabahassan6982 I tried to find it, bt it isn't on a website. However I remember I purchased it a year ago in vanilla sent and it costet maybe around 100PLN (25USD)? I'm really not sure tho, they had different sizes and all...
I think this one actually made me angrier than any other calendar you've opened. I just bought my daughter a nearly identical pack of five face masks a couple of weeks ago for $5 for the whole pack. And that blender sponge is the same style as the Target up and up generic sponges, which is all I ever buy, and they're $2.75. the fact that they're passing this off is a premium is what makes it so upsetting. Absolutely garbage.
sephora has truly embraced the title of worst advents
And they seem to be RUNNING with it!
You can either become the worst or proudly proclaim yourself the worst!
no bc why is there 12 masks LMAOO
@@dabaddestbarb they really called the premium advent buyers crusty and dusty
The uk ones are really good
Alexandria, you have definitely saved THIS person from the misfortunes of advent calendars! I enjoy your videos… but uh, yeah. I’m not getting FOMO, I’m getting “oh hell, no”! So…thank you. 😘
Gotta be impressed with sephoras consistency 😂 premium how?!
I love the impression of the Sephora meeting! 🤣
There's such a sad/bad difference between the US (sad/bad) compared to the UK version.... I've never been able to figure out why some of these brands do this to the US market. I was at the Disney Sephora last week and asked the manager....she wasn't aware of the UK version ...WHAT?! Thank you for sharing with us Mrs.! 💖💖
Then compare that to how shitty Canadas Sephora is! Also the availability of products!
Yes! I got it and it was so amazing £189 and over £1000 value and so many full sizes. I’ve also heard if you make “Sephora Favourites” one of your top brands you get a discount
@@MaryMacGregor-xq8xl It's really surprising.
@@plathapuss It is an amazing calendar....such an easy "add to cart" decision". Bravo on your purchase!
@@KatyListerX I agree with what you're saying, but the North American market is a lot of ready to spend money, I'd just really like to understand why, we pay shipping for others in the UK....bring it on!
Sephora really needs to hire you for their advent calendars.
Save the Big Orange Sephora UK version for your last Sephora calendar, so once you see that one, you don't go back to being disappointed or downright angry at the difference between Sephora UK and Sephora US.
at least you got a good tin box to put all your sheet masks in 😅
You are the eternal optimist with these Sephora calendars 😅!
These videos remind me why I get the Ulta one every year 22 dollars before tax and a lot of the stuff is decently sized compared to other calendars legit the lipstick was 0.02 off from being full sized
The hand balms have been discontinued, that may be why it is in the calendar this year.
I worked at Sephora for years I recently took a different job. I roughly calculated the retail value of this calendar while you unboxed it. I came up with $204. I guessed $20 on the fragrance, I have honestly never seen that before. I was generous with the mask prices as they cost $6 but more often than not they’re 50% off at $3.50. The eyeliner they included is the least expensive one the collection offers but that sucker is seriously waterproof! I’d love to see you do an Ulta one as well. ❤
I wish they would do a skincare calendar, a makeup calendar, and the after calendar that has both.
Remember when sheet masks were kind of exciting? 😂
Hi sweet girl, that box was pitiful for what it cost, I certainly wouldn’t buy anymore. Ren made me laugh out loud again, I get so tickled at those two. Tater was pretty laid back today. That yellow (supposedly ) makeup sponge looked filthy to me yesterday. A great video like always! Be careful & stay safe! Sending prayers, love & hugs!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🐾🐾❤️🎄
Hey Alex and everyone watching I love this time of the yr for so many reasons especially your advent calendars 😊 I pray that everyone has a wonderful and blessed Holiday ☃️❤
Thank you!❤ I pray the same for you and everyone, too!! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
They could’ve put the reformulated masks 😭 these are all the masks that are 50% off and they’re desperately trying to get rid of.
I work at Sephora. Trust me, this is all stuff that no one wants and we get mad because they send us excess stock of these items.
I need someone to make a gif of you demonstrating how they shoved the product in the box lmao
As well as using large boxes for one small item. 😕 I learned from watching a couple of her videos several years ago that it's just not worth it to purchase any of these. Making a more personal calendar for each of my granddaughters would be so much better. But I LOVE watching Alexandria's videos!!!❤️
I feel like Sephora and Macys are neck-and-neck in the crushing disappointment that their calendars provide. These are supposed to be fun, not cheap crap, especially when you consider the price. I used to love advent calendars but most have been really disappointing of late. Unless you spend $300+ on a foreign-made calendar, it's not worth it.
Sephora advent calendars are the epitome of, “an avacado! Thaaaanks.”
I live for the Sephora-ception.
I just love how real you are. Thanks for sharing all of the things.
“It’s a coconut face mask, thanks!” Gave the same energy as “it’s an avocado, thanks!”
“Can you hear the echo of all the empty promises “ 😂😂😂
Oh dear. Just seeing Sephora Premium I'm all ready worried 😯 that Alexandria is not going to have much fun 😢😊
It really is a shame when a full face mask and a trial size mascara just to mention 2 things are considered premium.
I wonder how many advent calendar business they have lost resulting from Alexandra's honest and fair reviews. Hopefully enough to leave a slight sting.😂
That should be Sephora's tagline for their advent calendars, "full of empty promises". 😂
Your comedy is what makes you sooooo special. Seriously I love how you screen shot your self multiple years in a row with the same exact product 😂😂😂😂😂😊
Oh Sephora, you never fail to disappoint. It's reassuring in a way to know that no matter what else is going on in the world that Sephora will never change their advent calendar offerings. At this point I think every single person owns a gua sha, it's really time for brands to find the next 5 cent item they include in everything and mark up to 15 dollars. They really should be embarrassed, how does the biggest beauty store think this is in any way acceptable. The perfume was ok to get but no, it makes it worse because it shows what the calendar should be, they have the products!! I didn't even purchase any of their calendars but I'm angry on the behalf of everyone who did. I'm getting heated. My 6 month old rescue kitten finally learned to both like being petted & to really meow, all overnight, so I'm going to go play with her because petting cute animals is supposed to be calming. I hope you feel better. Thanks for the video. You look as gorgeous as always.
I truly adore the cuts with editing Alexandria adding extra context and snark, it’s just ~chefs kiss~ perfection
The perfume (based on what I could find) was released in 2020 and apart from two in Februrary 2023 on Sephora France, there haven't been any reviews on any international site I could find since December 2022. Plus people have been asking for dupes of the sister scent (vanilla) that was released at the same time on Reddit starting at least six months ago. So. Almost certainly an old, unsold product.
Sephora is really failing by not taking the years of advice they have to improve. How stupid. Good for you for giving them free marketing techniques but I don’t know if they have a team for that😂🤣 love your videos❤️ my 4th year of advent calendar season with you! I had lost your account when I lost my old TH-cam but ass soon as winter hit, I instantly remembered one of my favorites☺️🤞✨
I saw Alicia from the dozen do a Sephora one I was shocked with how many goodies she got! It was actually good and had makeup that wasn’t a red lipstick!
Glad I caught this so early! I’ve never purchased an advent calendar but I’m here every year. Hope you feel better soon Alexandria
I feel like, if you like the Sephora Collection and never got an advent calendar from them before, you would probably be happy with this. It's not great, but at least you didn't get a tiny mirror, blister pack, stickers, or a hair tie. The products are all bigger even if they aren't full size. As far as Sephora advent calendars go, this isn't that bad.
🎉I just can’t get enough of your videos
You have saved so many people money with your videos!! Thank you ❤ Because of you I will never buy an Advent Calendar without watching your video first 😘
I love you girl thanks for the videos, you make my day so much better every day
Merry Christmas Alexandria hope you have a lovely day x
Boy, oh boy...am I grateful to see this video pop up! Completely turned around my day! ❤
Can you please do the blue circle one soon, the anticipation is killing me😂😂😂😂😂
I love your videos, you're really fun, I could literally watch you open advent calendars for hours and hours. Thank u for daily videos
I'm so pumped for the orange one!
This made my day to see your video pop up :) Happy Holidays
I’ve watched so many of your advent calendar videos over the last week or two. Recent ones & ones from years ago. Thank you for sharing yourself in an authentic way. It is really relatable & it makes me feel less alone in my little chaos. These videos are also just so much fun. Gives us the fun of unboxing without the cost 😊.
Hope you’re feeling better & the puppa is feeling better, at least back to what is typical for him.
YAY MY FAVORITE UPLOADS OF THE SEASON
Should we be concerned that they had ‘Sephora 2020’ on some of those screen grabs for the perfume…
No, perfume has a long shelf life.
Yeah, 3 yrs according to another commenter above that said they used to work at Sephora, so it might still be ok if used now. Maybe. @dweebicusmaximus
@@sarawhite9338 Perfume is mainly alcohol. It can't go bad on a sealed container. It doesn't even really lose scent.
A lot of "shelf life" numbers are just because you're legally not allowed to go over wx for yz.
Btw, even really old, opened, perfumes get sold on some platforms. Usually it's well beloved ones that aren't available anymore, or really expensive ones that you normally couldn't afford, but can now afford an almost full bottle from someone who's aunt has died recently and won't need it anymore.
Sounds a bit odd, but is a surprisingly big market and given that Parfum is basically a disinfectant (somewhat) it's also not unhygienic. And a great opportunity, for people that are interested.
Omg, the shirt youre wearing today is so cute! I love it and it looks so cozy!
YES! Another advent calendar video a few days after my surgery! This is awesome timing :)
Honestly I love the hand masks. They’re really moisturizing
I hope you feel better soon. Being sick this close to the holidays really sucks. Sending healing wishes
How about a gold-shimmer red? 💛❤️
I love how you called the neck a goozler. I haven't heard that in years! LoL 16:28
You are adorable! I liked the tin best!🤣🤣🤣
happy new year!
Your hair looks gorgeous 😍 we are kind of rocking the same straight black hair today which is pretty cool! Also these Sephora Calendars are crazy. The audacity lol
Hope you’re having a wonderful Wednesday
Just want you to know that your videos do make a difference. I will NEVER buy a Sephora advent calendar. Thanks for all you do to save us money.
I thought this one was better then most of the Sephora advent. This was my first year buying it. I really enjoyed it myself :) Have an awesome day Great video!
I’d recommend the Elemis calendar x
I love your videos 😂😂. Sending well wishes for this holiday season from my family to yours!!
Aww thank you so much💖💖 same to you!!
Oh boy here we go!
I love these calendars so much, to be honest. By which I mean, I really love watching you roast them.
One of the best Christmas traditions out there, methinks!
I love your advent calendar videos! I’ll never buy a Sephora advent calendar ever. Lol😅
i really really love your videos, you are true in your reactions, we spend money and we deserve value and not shit… and you say what you think about what they put in the advent calendars… and they are putting shit in those calendars… love you so much 🥰
Jo loves advent calendar is great I hope you consider unboxing it 😍
I feel like Sephora's budget for these advent calendars go straight to the design cause that was the best part
The Do Not Drink range is available in the Australia/New Zealand Sephoras.
It's Sephorain' time!
Because of you I have NEVER purchased a Sephora advent calendar so I am very thankful for that.
Swear, you upload at the perfect times 😅 🥰so happy you’re keeping me company!
Oh I’m glad to hear that! Thank you for watching!
Honestly hand masks are so nice
I love that in the final round up picture that the hand cream was still missing the cap. Did you ever find it?
16:21 Lmao yesss this moment about killed me. 😂 I’ve been thinking of that video so much this holiday season 🥑
Your face at 10:42, I CACKLED 😂😂😂 the face of absolutely baffled disappointment
Yaaaayyy! Another garbage fire one!!! This matches my current mood perfectly 😂!
I love how I'm watching this, and I had 3! sephora ads play LOL.
Thank you for the video
Thank you for watching!
I am definitely part of the "Oh I do not buy that!" Club you inspired by your videos. Thank you so much for buying all the kalendars, it is a huge part of my christmas time and I love seeing you open (and roast) them.
❤❤❤❤ love your channel
LMAO kmsl. 😂😂 The echo of broken promises!!!!!! You said it!!!!!
Hi wren! Luv him! I have an old dog at home and can attest to the snores 😅
You should do a ranking of your top 3 and as you do them keep updating it if not this year next year I would love to know which ones are you overall favorites
I work in a medical lab and between the gloves and the constant hand washing I'm lusting after all the hand stuff
Just as day 24 was being revealed, commercial break came up, and it was… Sephora😂😂
Thanks, Ali!!!
🤍🤍🤍🤍
I’m home sick today and was needing something to watch while I lay in bed. I love watching your videos!
Praying that you are better soon!❤️ Merry Christmas!
Here so early! Love Advent calendar months! Hahaha❤
Next year or even this year you should rank them have a top three!! As you review have the top three and as you come across a better switch it out. Love your videos!
That brush is giving Crayola watercolor paint set vibes😂
What a memory! Those babies could and would shed like no other.
I was a fan of the Sephora monthly subscription.
Your voice sounds so much better. 😊
The cute doggies🥰....my eyes goes straight to them.....soz Alexandria, your content is great too😍
