Thanks Bright Cellars for sponsoring this video and for the limited-time offer! Click here bit.ly/BrightCellarsAlexandriaDec to get your first 6-bottle box, a $150+ value, for just $55! Hey guys💖 Im so sorry this video is a little low energy and the edit might not be great, I am feeling MUCH worse today than I did when I filmed this so I'm sure I've made a few editing mistakes in my woozy state lol. Let me know what you guys think of this calendar! I think It was better than in years past but I would love to hear your thoughts! Love ya💖
As a fellow Fur parent I can't imagine how frightening it must be to watch your Buddy go thru his seizures. When my buddy is not well nothing in my world seems to matter until he is back on track. You are a wonderfull Mom and content provider for meeting his needs and then pulling yourself together and putting another great video out for us to enjoy. Tater is always in my prayers as are you your Hubby and of course sweet Ren. Hugs❤😊
Your videos are always fantastic! But if you just aren't feeling up to it- if you need to take a break, need some self-care and rest, please do so. You have had a lot going on, and keep a pretty busy schedule, we don't want you to burn yourself out!! ❤
I hope you and Tater are feeling better soon. This calendar actually seems pretty decent, teeth checking mirror aside, lol. That bronzy shimmery lip gloss looks like it could redeem just about any lip color you add it to, and the shimmery eye pencils are really pretty. I personally am a big purple fan, so the purple shimmer lip gloss would probably be my favorite item.
I hope you and Tater are feeling better today! And as someone with an epileptic in their family, do you by any chance have any blinking Christmas lights up? I know at least for humans they can lead to seizures. Sharing this bit of info with love. Hope tomorrow is better for you, Alex!❤💐
You know why I love your videos? You are the opposite of 95% of influencers. Basically you stop me buying things I really don't need/ want. I don't need an advent calendar. Thank you
this series legitimately brings me so much joy. everything else sucks massively in my life but this helps a little. I hope tater feels better :”( poor baby
The peach paintpot makes sense to me actually as with it being an eyeshadow primer it can help cancel out bluish tones like veins or dark circles. I actually really like the mac paint pots for primer. It stops your eyelids from being oily and dries a bit tacky.
Yes! I use a neutral beige for my eyeshadow primer - so when I saw the peach shade I was thinking the same thing, it’s probably a great color for correcting the eyelid. *But otherwise, this calendar was also just soo meh. MAC could have and should have really done something MUCH more creative imo. They always do so many limited edition fun holiday items! I don’t get it. All these calendars seem full of leftover boring stuff. Why do they not include their actual fun seasonal holiday items?? 😐
I use the Soft Ochre color for my primer. I think you're correct about the peach being able to cancel out blue lid tones and since it's a Mac Paint Pot, definitely one of the best eye primers out there.
Girl… we do not care what day they go up, we just love watching them!! Never feel bad for them not posting them on an exact day! We were all still excited and then incredibly said when they were done in like maybe Feb earlier this year… I’d watch Advents all year personally!! lol
Other than the cheap throwaway mirror, this actually seems decent, especially for someone who really likes Mac products. I like that they included a pretty wide variety of lip shades, not just 10 slightly different shades of red like the "luxury" calendars like to do🙄😅
MAC was founded in Toronto, Canada and that's why many shades have French names. Some of them are as old as the company itself and have become a staple. 🖤
Honestly, I wouldn't mind if you uploaded these year round. That also means that taking care of your family is 100% priority and if you're uploading these into January then that's wonderful. We love you, take your time!
Alexandria, I'm an artist and am crafting a 1/12th scale (dollhouse size) advent calendar!!! ❤ I'm half done!! It was your beautiful self who introduced me to ADVENT CALENDARS, I previously didn't know they were a thing.
I always knew of the traditional Christmas advent calendars with the little chocolates in each day, but she definitely introduced me to the world of horrible/questionable beauty advent calendars 😂
The paint pot goes on clean eyelids before you do your eyeshadow. It prevents the oils of your skin breaking down your eyeshadow, eyeliner, etc. Plus it makes it blendable, vibrant, and stays on longer! Plus it evens out the color of your eyelids!
you know we love when the advent calendar season creeps into the new year! So please take your time and we will be here past Christmas to watch the amazing (and not so amazing) calendars! :)
I'm finally early!!! Just to let you know you are the only beauty TH-camr I, a nearly 40 year old gal, still watch, you are adorable and we can feel your gentle soul through your videos. Keep it up, Alexandria!! :)
I barely even wear makeup anymore, and I definitely am never going to buy an advent calendar, but I watch every single one of your videos because your energy is genuinely so precious and uplifting. Hope you feel better soon!!
I could live with you doing this series all year long. Lol. I love that we got an extended season last year so, if you want to go well into January or February, go for it! I'll be here for all of it. Praying Tater feels better soon and you as well.
This calendar was great. As for the purple lips they look great on darker skin tones. Another young woman i watch (im horrible with names) compares different colours to see if they are "brown girl friendly" and warm purples always look so good ❤
Honestly your reviews are so good. The fact that you go into all the undertones of the colours is a massive help to me as someone that is colour blind. ❤
I thought this was a really good calendar! A lot of full size lip products, and most of them very wearable shades. I'm glad you tried out the brown over pink trick some people have been suggesting, it worked so well 💕 Thank you for the video, I hope you are feeling better soon, and I hope Tater is too! Xx
I love how you smell every. darn. thing! You bring so much joy to people even when you may not feel like doing it and we appreciate it. Just know if you need to take care of your babies and yourself we can wait and will still be here.❤
I'd love to see Alexandria show us her favorite Lip clours. It is a rare occassion that one pops up that gets her excited. I can relate as Im always on the hunt for the perfect nude. When I find it i will truly buy a case as when I finally find the perfect shade it is always dicontiued.
I'd never spend this much on an advent calendar (have given up even getting cheap chocolate ones as all I do is forget to open it 😄) but this one seems far more worth it than most of the others. Everything except the mirror is a proper item and most seem a proper size too and the colours have a pretty wide appeal. One of the ones where it feels like the company put some thought and effort in.
@0:28 Ik wut u are going thru! Sending positive vibes to you ❤ 3 years ago I adopted a blind & deaf senior dog from a kill shelter in Brooklyn, NY. The first time he had seizures, I rushed him to the 24hr emergency hospital here, but then u get used to it. You need to stay calm and keep Tater calm as well. HugsfromNYC 🍎
That was a lot for MAC! Definitely $250+ worth. Hope you and wee Tater are feeling better each day! You looked amazing for not feeling well. I’m in my pj’s, dressing gown, hair flopped on top of my head, non-hot mess on my bad days! I need to up my game, I’ll change into clean nightwear! 😂
It's really admirable how you keep us updated on the dogs. It shows how open you are as a person and is a great reminder of the difficult things everyone around us may be going through. I really wish you only the best edit: purple eyebrows headass
Fingers and toes all crossed that your little tater starts feeling/doing better! Advent calendars can wait! Plus I can tell by the comments that there are so many animal lovers on your threads so since he’s got tons of people sending good vibes y’all’s way I’ll just add mine to the pile! 💜❤️🩹💜
We will be here for every video whenever you post, and I totally understand the cycle of disappointment when you WANT to do a thing but life gets in the way & then you feel guilty for feeling like you let people (us) down - but please rest assured that we will still be here. Side note: as someone who also got their world rocked with seizures this year & got my official diagnosis on wed, and my cat passed in between them, I feel for you soooooo much with your furbabies. Please make sure you give yourself grace!!! Family comes first and furbabies ARE family. Also we all gotta keep trying to manage our stress levels cause the world be crazy out there 😂 Sending love from Aus 💖💖💖
So sorry about your pup, I can’t imagine the emotional toll it’s taking on you and your husband. Loving this series this year and you’ve been doing an amazing job getting all these videos out during this stressful time of year!
I commented on the last video that you should try mixing some of the "too brown" & "too pink/milky" lippies that you've swatched together to get your ideal shades!
As someone who's kitties are their actual children & LOVES all animals, I sympathize with u & I just hate hearing what you're going thru. That poor baby shouldn't have to go thru that... 😔 Thank u for keeping so positive. You've become my fav person to watch ☺️☺️
The purple lip glass will work well over some of the orange lip products you've gotten lately. Pretty sure you got some really orange lip products in P Louise.
I love that you have 2 Bostons!🥰 When my hubby and I first got together 16 years ago we got 2 Boston Terriers, a boy and then a girl. They have now both passed😢 We now have 3 kids and one on the way , so haven't got any new pets but we will be getting another Boston someday ❤ it brings me so much joy to see your babies in your videos!
I am so sorry Alexandria about your pup I can’t even imagine what your going through. I am glad he’s doing better today. Also I am sorry your sick. I know what that’s like I am a winter sick magnet I am usually sick most of winter. My poor dad though was sick 6 weeks I hope that you don’t end up that sick. Sending you good vibes to feel better soon and good vibes for puppy too. ❤️
Taking care of Tater and yourself is always more important! I would gladly watch an advent calendar unboxing for my birthday in February, so just take all the time you need for you and your family. ❤
Ok Alexandria, we need words, you need to stop apologising, we love you and love the furbabies more, 99.999% of us would rather you and your loved ones be ok and wait for a video. Im happy to wait as it extends the advent season! Still want the puppy advent calendar thou ❤
Alexandria we will always wait. Of course the boys come first. Poor Tater is obviously really going through it at the moment. I don’t even wear makeup and I watch you. Its your personality that drew me in. Love to you, hubby and the boys xxxxx ❤
The stuff you don't use you should do a massive giveaway after Xmas xxx Id definitely enter!!! I couldn't buy myself anything this Xmas or my family so something like this would make me smile xx
I mean that peach paint pot looks like a great color corrector. As someone with sever dark circles that actually looks like it would really cover some stuff lol
I think the clear comes in a squeezy tube while the colored one comes with a wand because if the color settles, mixing it up with a wand is infinitely easier than trying to mush around the tube, but I am pulling this information from literally nothing besides knowing how paint wrks lol ( :
That purple lip glass looks super pretty. On my screen, it looks a little more pink than grape but maybe that’s just the camera settings and possibly my bf’s colorblind settings since I’m using his phone rn. Ngl I’m confused about what the new shades are, they all seem like regular shades that Mac has put in their advent calendars for years but I don’t have an extensive knowledge of their shades and the names. The only Mac lipstick I have is Bated Breath which I wore the other day and it was really pretty. But this video did make me think I should use my Mac X Lisa palette and highlighter tomorrow since I got them for my birthday like 2 years ago and today is my birthday lol. I’ve only used the palette a couple times and haven’t even used the highlighter since I realized it might be a little dark for my skin so I’ll probably have to mix it with something else I haven’t finished the unboxing section yet but so far, I don’t think this calendar would be worth it for me personally. It does seem better than the calendars of years past but I’d rather just buy a shade or two of the products I’m actually interested in (and save money in the end which is always fun) Love the Holes reference though, that movie was one of my favorites when I was younger, I would watch it anytime it came on lol
Just want you to know we support you and you don't need to apologize for being sick or taking care of your fur baby, Tater. I'm praying for your health and his. Wishing you love and light!! Warm greetings of Christmas joy and happiness!!
Whoohooo another advent calander unboxing right when I was looking for another YT video to watch. Please don't stop unboxing, you unboxing videos really make my day!
I loved the eyeball looking at us in the covers. So sorry about Tater having these seizures. Don’t have to apologize for not making the video, the fur baby comes first.
I would love for advent calendar season to cruise into the new year! Take all the time you need to take care of yourself and your boys. We will still be here, cause we love your content and your personality! ❤❤
Hope you start feeling better! So sorry to hear about Tater. 😭 Glad he’s resting now and is snuggled in those cozy blankets. I’m sending positive thoughts y’all’s way. ❤️❤️❤️
Hope Tater & you as well feel so much better. I will keep you all in my thoughts & prayers. Hope the Vet can regulate his medication. I love your channel, as you ALWAYS make me Lol & Smile. 😊Hugs,Anita
Get it Girl. I wasn't about to get any advent calendars for myself this yr.. all were gone. So im living vicariously through watching you open these beauty calendars Ty for sharing. Hugs to furr babies
I’m so glad you are so honest with these advent calendars! I saw another unboxing of this calendar, and the person acted like it was the best thing ever!!!
I love this channel, Alexandria is just the sweetest lady. The accent, the delivery - it just wholesome and so watchable. A breath of fresh air in the current climate. Merry Christmas you love lady ❤
I iz Canadian and in Toronto Canada year 1984 MAC was founded and manufactured. Frank Toskan and Frank Angelo are the founders so they def use French Canadian Words :) I always see these every year and hope for more eye shadow and less lips and pencils but I might have to try to get my hands on one for 2024!!
Bless your heart for popping in when you feel like crap! If you wear a lot of lipstick this is a great calendar; unfortunately lipstick changes color on me so I will use them as a blush. Get some rest, and I hope you feel better. xoxo's Sandie🤗☃🎄

this series legitimately brings me so much joy. everything else sucks massively in my life but this helps a little. I hope tater feels better :”( poor baby
Sadly I feel this comment...
Same here. I feel ya hunny.
Im in the same boat. Much love to you❤
Girl, same. Sending love and light your way.
OMG everyone I hope you get something super special out of nowhere happen asap legit 🫶
Never apologize for taking care of your babies, the advent calendar will wait. Thank you for filling the season with laughs and good vibes.

I use the Soft Ochre color for my primer. I think you're correct about the peach being able to cancel out blue lid tones and since it's a Mac Paint Pot, definitely one of the best eye primers out there.
I remember when almost all the influencers used them to prime their eyelids.
Girl… we do not care what day they go up, we just love watching them!! Never feel bad for them not posting them on an exact day! We were all still excited and then incredibly said when they were done in like maybe Feb earlier this year… I’d watch Advents all year personally!! lol
She could post 20 videos in a single day and I'd dutifully watch every single one as soon as I could
Huge same here, the thrill of the surprise is what makes it for me, besides her sparkly personality and honesty, she's so fun to watch
You could be posting these in June and I’d press play immediately. So glad that Tater is doing better now, poor baby.
This advent calendar is definitely worth it. Nearly everything is full size and valued more than selling price.
I agree! It’s much better than it has been in year’s past!
Same
Way way better than other calendars
Other than the cheap throwaway mirror, this actually seems decent, especially for someone who really likes Mac products. I like that they included a pretty wide variety of lip shades, not just 10 slightly different shades of red like the "luxury" calendars like to do🙄😅

It was your beautiful self who introduced me to ADVENT CALENDARS, I previously didn't know they were a thing.
That sounds amazing!! I would love to somehow see a picture when you are done! 💖
I always knew of the traditional Christmas advent calendars with the little chocolates in each day, but she definitely introduced me to the world of horrible/questionable beauty advent calendars 😂
I had also never heard of them before her except like a chocolate one idk I saw it sometime when I was a child
You should make a second one for Alexandria we all know she loves tiny things of big things 😂
@jaimehiltz4489 heck yeah! You're right! Ooooh, the pressure is on!
The paint pot goes on clean eyelids before you do your eyeshadow. It prevents the oils of your skin breaking down your eyeshadow, eyeliner, etc. Plus it makes it blendable, vibrant, and stays on longer! Plus it evens out the color of your eyelids!
you know we love when the advent calendar season creeps into the new year! So please take your time and we will be here past Christmas to watch the amazing (and not so amazing) calendars! :)
Right I could watch these year round they make my day so much better
You're a chaotic queen ETA: seriously though taking care of your pups is more important and I will happily watch you open advent calendars in February
March...April...May...
My Husbunny and I were debating Alexandria's D&D alignment... I think she's Chaotic Good. He thinks she's Lawful Neutral. 😊
@@Kaemeatbh, she has an opinion like a lady with a chaotic like a man, a combine forces from both worlds, and i enjoy every second of it
I'm finally early!!! Just to let you know you are the only beauty TH-camr I, a nearly 40 year old gal, still watch, you are adorable and we can feel your gentle soul through your videos. Keep it up, Alexandria!! :)
I couldn't agree more! I don't even use make up (and never have) and I am subscribed just for Alexandria's personality!
@@daan8695same, as an almost 40 year old, I VERY RARELY wear makeup but I love her videos.
I barely even wear makeup anymore, and I definitely am never going to buy an advent calendar, but I watch every single one of your videos because your energy is genuinely so precious and uplifting. Hope you feel better soon!!

The Paint Pots make great color correctors for under the eyes!
I will give that a try!
This calendar was great. As for the purple lips they look great on darker skin tones. Another young woman i watch (im horrible with names) compares different colours to see if they are "brown girl friendly" and warm purples always look so good ❤
Honestly your reviews are so good. The fact that you go into all the undertones of the colours is a massive help to me as someone that is colour blind. ❤
I LOVE MAC paint pots. Jeffree taught me about the paint pot in "painterly". The difference they make in your eye look is awesome. Holy grail.
Painterly was the OG TH-cam holy grail back in 2010. Everyone had it! I should still get it!
I thought this was a really good calendar! A lot of full size lip products, and most of them very wearable shades. I'm glad you tried out the brown over pink trick some people have been suggesting, it worked so well 💕
Thank you for the video, I hope you are feeling better soon, and I hope Tater is too! Xx
You should make ornaments out of all the compact mirrors you get
I love how you smell every. darn. thing! You bring so much joy to people even when you may not feel like doing it and we appreciate it. Just know if you need to take care of your babies and yourself we can wait and will still be here.❤
I love this advent calendar because they actually add full size products more than the mini and the product is actually good
Hope you and Tater are feeling better 🥺 poor pup. I know you worry about him. Thanks for sharing these even tho you weren’t feeling the best.
I'd love to see Alexandria show us her favorite Lip clours. It is a rare occassion that one pops up that gets her excited. I can relate as Im always on the hunt for the perfect nude. When I find it i will truly buy a case as when I finally find the perfect shade it is always dicontiued.
Omg. I am so sorry bout lil Tater. I always keep him in my thoughts and prayers. He’s such a good lil boy and he’s got great parents! ❤️🩹
I'd never spend this much on an advent calendar (have given up even getting cheap chocolate ones as all I do is forget to open it 😄) but this one seems far more worth it than most of the others.

Always take care of yourself and your pups. We'll be here. 😊
Sorry to hear about tater hope he is doing better much love and. Prayers being sent to you and yours
Me when I get a notification that Alex posted a new advent video: 🏃🏻♀️💨
ME, TOO!!!❤️
That was a lot for MAC! Definitely $250+ worth. Hope you and wee Tater are feeling better each day! You looked amazing for not feeling well. I’m in my pj’s, dressing gown, hair flopped on top of my head, non-hot mess on my bad days! I need to up my game, I’ll change into clean nightwear! 😂
I’m so glad to know that I’m not the only person who would want to keep the tiny Dunkin’ bag lol 😂
Never apologize for needing to prioritize the pups. We need them healthy and happy to cohost
It's really admirable how you keep us updated on the dogs. It shows how open you are as a person and is a great reminder of the difficult things everyone around us may be going through. I really wish you only the best
edit: purple eyebrows headass
Fingers and toes all crossed that your little tater starts feeling/doing better! Advent calendars can wait! Plus I can tell by the comments that there are so many animal lovers on your threads so since he’s got tons of people sending good vibes y’all’s way I’ll just add mine to the pile! 💜❤️🩹💜
Surprisingly a pretty descent calendar. Definitely a lot better than some of the more pricey ones.
We will be here for every video whenever you post, and I totally understand the cycle of disappointment when you WANT to do a thing but life gets in the way & then you feel guilty for feeling like you let people (us) down - but please rest assured that we will still be here.
Side note: as someone who also got their world rocked with seizures this year & got my official diagnosis on wed, and my cat passed in between them, I feel for you soooooo much with your furbabies.
Please make sure you give yourself grace!!! Family comes first and furbabies ARE family. Also we all gotta keep trying to manage our stress levels cause the world be crazy out there 😂
Sending love from Aus 💖💖💖
So sorry about your pup, I can’t imagine the emotional toll it’s taking on you and your husband.
Loving this series this year and you’ve been doing an amazing job getting all these videos out during this stressful time of year!
I loved the first lipstick with that brownish lipglass. It was sooo pretty
"This upper lip line, i dont know where that came from, thats not mine" got me so good😂😂😂😂
I commented on the last video that you should try mixing some of the "too brown" & "too pink/milky" lippies that you've swatched together to get your ideal shades!
I hope you and the little guy are feeling better! I always think calendars like this with so many full sizes are a means of clearing out old stock.
For the paint pot -Peach is great at canceling out dark spots. Might be good as an under eye concealer.
Great idea! It might even be a nice blush, too.
As someone who's kitties are their actual children & LOVES all animals, I sympathize with u & I just hate hearing what you're going thru. That poor baby shouldn't have to go thru that... 😔
Thank u for keeping so positive. You've become my fav person to watch ☺️☺️
that mini Dunkin' bag can totally be useful for stationery and stuff you can use to open boxes, a mini safety boxcutter, always kept easy to find!!
The purple lip glass will work well over some of the orange lip products you've gotten lately. Pretty sure you got some really orange lip products in P Louise.
Your fur babies are your family! Tater should always come first. Sending positive energy to him, and I hope he feels better soon! ❤❤❤
Girl, you are a QUEEN 👸 for doing this video for us feeling as lousy as you do! Nothing but respect sister. Stay well and hydrate! ❤
Awww poor little Tater, I hope he feels better soon. It's so hard when fur babies are unwell. Xxx
I hope you and tater feel better soon. Take care of yourself, I know that ADHD life. This series has helped me through some rough days :)
I love that you have 2 Bostons!🥰 When my hubby and I first got together 16 years ago we got 2 Boston Terriers, a boy and then a girl. They have now both passed😢 We now have 3 kids and one on the way , so haven't got any new pets but we will be getting another Boston someday ❤ it brings me so much joy to see your babies in your videos!
I am so sorry Alexandria about your pup I can’t even imagine what your going through. I am glad he’s doing better today. Also I am sorry your sick. I know what that’s like I am a winter sick magnet I am usually sick most of winter. My poor dad though was sick 6 weeks I hope that you don’t end up that sick. Sending you good vibes to feel better soon and good vibes for puppy too. ❤️
Tater all curled up in his blanket with one eye peeping out is too cute
The matte pink lipstick actually looked so good on you!!!
Taking care of Tater and yourself is always more important! I would gladly watch an advent calendar unboxing for my birthday in February, so just take all the time you need for you and your family. ❤
Ok Alexandria, we need words, you need to stop apologising, we love you and love the furbabies more, 99.999% of us would rather you and your loved ones be ok and wait for a video. Im happy to wait as it extends the advent season!
Still want the puppy advent calendar thou ❤
Alexandria we will always wait. Of course the boys come first. Poor Tater is obviously really going through it at the moment.
I don’t even wear makeup and I watch you. Its your personality that drew me in.
Love to you, hubby and the boys xxxxx ❤
Soar is my favorite lip liner of all time. Love it with Velvet Teddy ❤
Oh the puppy lump! ❤️ Poor baby. Hope he's ok and that you and the husband are looking after yourselves too xx
🧡 loving the videos! Hopefully you and Tater are feeling better!
Tater's eye peeking out - melts my heart ❣
We love you Tater ❤ hope he's doing okay and please don't apologize for being such a great mama! We love your videos whenever you can post
Was wondering if u will ever do a video like u use to do of unboxing things that we send u? Those were the best videos ever. Great job on this one
The stuff you don't use you should do a massive giveaway after Xmas xxx
Id definitely enter!!!
I couldn't buy myself anything this Xmas or my family so something like this would make me smile xx
Glad to hear that Tater is doing better today. Great video as always. Much love to you and the babies. 🌸💜🌸
I did like the way you sing. Thank God i find a really honest, cute channel like you❤
I mean that peach paint pot looks like a great color corrector. As someone with sever dark circles that actually looks like it would really cover some stuff lol
Your advent videos are my absolute favorite! ❤
I think the clear comes in a squeezy tube while the colored one comes with a wand because if the color settles, mixing it up with a wand is infinitely easier than trying to mush around the tube, but I am pulling this information from literally nothing besides knowing how paint wrks lol ( :
The paintpots are amazing! I've gone through so many in the shade ochre' - looks great on its own, but also a fab base for shadow ❤
Don't apologize for taking care of you and your babies ❤
That purple lip glass looks super pretty. On my screen, it looks a little more pink than grape but maybe that’s just the camera settings and possibly my bf’s colorblind settings since I’m using his phone rn.

The only Mac lipstick I have is Bated Breath which I wore the other day and it was really pretty. But this video did make me think I should use my Mac X Lisa palette and highlighter tomorrow since I got them for my birthday like 2 years ago and today is my birthday lol. I’ve only used the palette a couple times and haven’t even used the highlighter since I realized it might be a little dark for my skin so I’ll probably have to mix it with something else
I haven’t finished the unboxing section yet but so far, I don’t think this calendar would be worth it for me personally. It does seem better than the calendars of years past but I’d rather just buy a shade or two of the products I’m actually interested in (and save money in the end which is always fun)
Love the Holes reference though, that movie was one of my favorites when I was younger, I would watch it anytime it came on lol
The brown gloss works miracles.
Legit Kevin from The office always comes to my mind when I hear the word chili and I love that lol. The office is my favorite show.
Just get well you and puppy matter the most!!
This was a really decent MAC advent calendar. For anyone who is a MAC lover this is definitely a calendar for them. Thanks Alexandria ♥️
Just want you to know we support you and you don't need to apologize for being sick or taking care of your fur baby, Tater. I'm praying for your health and his. Wishing you love and light!! Warm greetings of Christmas joy and happiness!!
I really like that last lipstick shade. I bet it would look very nice (on my skin tone) with a clear lip gloss.
Sending you healing thoughts of wellness 🎉
Hope you all feel better soon. ❤
Whoohooo another advent calander unboxing right when I was looking for another YT video to watch. Please don't stop unboxing, you unboxing videos really make my day!
QUEEN of keeping it pushing!!! feel better 😭 and take breaks if you need to!
I loved the eyeball looking at us in the covers. So sorry about Tater having these seizures. Don’t have to apologize for not making the video, the fur baby comes first.
I would love for advent calendar season to cruise into the new year! Take all the time you need to take care of yourself and your boys. We will still be here, cause we love your content and your personality! ❤❤
I've been having a really bad day and a video from you is just what I needed.
Feel better ❤️🩹
I love mixing some lipsticks and/or lip glosses together to get a much more desired shade
Hope you start feeling better! So sorry to hear about Tater. 😭 Glad he’s resting now and is snuggled in those cozy blankets. I’m sending positive thoughts y’all’s way. ❤️❤️❤️
Hope Tater & you as well feel so much better. I will keep you all in my thoughts & prayers. Hope the Vet can regulate his medication. I love your channel, as you ALWAYS make me Lol & Smile. 😊Hugs,Anita
Get it Girl. I wasn't about to get any advent calendars for myself this yr.. all were gone. So im living vicariously through watching you open these beauty calendars
Ty for sharing. Hugs to furr babies
I’m so glad you are so honest with these advent calendars! I saw another unboxing of this calendar, and the person acted like it was the best thing ever!!!
I'm (young) Gen X and I love MAC. I know I should move on but the heart wants what the heart wants.
I love this channel, Alexandria is just the sweetest lady.
The accent, the delivery - it just wholesome and so watchable.
A breath of fresh air in the current climate.
Merry Christmas you love lady ❤
I iz Canadian and in Toronto Canada year 1984 MAC was founded and manufactured. Frank Toskan and Frank Angelo are the founders so they def use French Canadian Words :) I always see these every year and hope for more eye shadow and less lips and pencils but I might have to try to get my hands on one for 2024!!
Bless your heart for popping in when you feel like crap! If you wear a lot of lipstick this is a great calendar; unfortunately lipstick changes color on me so I will use them as a blush. Get some rest, and I hope you feel better.

That snowflake attached to the box would make a nice tree topped. Loved the video as usual! ❤
