Hey guys! So this video did NOT go as planned! From the extra box, to the lengths, to the Shrek makeup! But thank you guys so much for watching! Let me know what you think I should do about the Glow Addict Makeup Box! Cancel or keep? Love ya💖
It probably is time to let go of glow addict. Changing to their own "brand" is basically a way to give you cheap drop shipped stuff for a major mark up. Wasn't it the glow addict lip plumper that gave you probably chemical burns? I think it's ok to let it go
Exactly. And that's why drop shipped makeup and skincare is a BAD idea. You don't know what those random brandless Chinese factories could be putting in it. They've already had a scandal with heavy metals in fabrics just recently. When brands from outside China produce products in house in China, there's a lot more oversight, where as with the off-brand stuff there's none.
@@djjones7039 Basically it's when Chinese manufacturers offer generic products wholesale with the option to put your private label on what you order. The products are often not very safe since these generic manufacturers have less oversight than ones owned or contracted by first world companies.
every couple of months I go on an absolute binge of your channel and all the videos I’ve missed, and now that it’s almost September I’m so looking forward to the iconic Alexandria Ryan advent calendar era!
yes she is the first one i binge watch on advent calendar. i live vicariously through all the RUclipsrs who buy them and other subscriptions boxes..even when i don't wear makeup lol
The shift on the lips was so crazy!! You move one way and it’s either green, gold, or looks like nothing is there at all! And the highlighter blew my mind too!
Imagine layering that gloss over a solid color or using some green or gold lip liner to define the shape... so cool. As a fan of 90's VK, I just love it.
welcoming the sixth Spice Girl, BAYOU SPICE! Do you realize you're one of the funniest make-up content creators? Your videos always make me laugh. Also, with this box, congrats! You can now be glittering Elphaba from Wicked for Halloween!
Frosted green lips for Halloween would be so much fun! The eye shadow paIette could be used with other colors from another palette. I can see the green highlight used on eyes rather than face. It's the green shade of the mascara I don't get. A dark forest green could enhance your eye color while lengthening lashes, but that shade doesn't seem to enhance the eye, it just looks like it makes lashes kind of disappear with the green eye shadow.
Yes, the highlighter on the inner corners and under the brow would have looked great, I think. I also agree that the mascara shade was a let down, it should have been the same shade as the green she used for the wing. That said, I think dark lashes often have issues with coloured mascaras showing up.
I would love to find this box! I am a teacher at a school that has grouped all of their students into color themed houses and I am the Head of the Green house. This would be so perfect for our celebrations!!!!
That Slay beauty box looks like something they should have sent out in February or the beginning of March for St. Patrick's Day or maybe even December for Christmas. Oh yeah, now that you say August, I forgot Peridot is August's birthstone.
Or Halloween, though now I'm excited to see what they do ship for Oct. Orange and purple? Gothic reds and dark grey/black with white concealer? I hope they do something just as extra as this.
I'd contact customer service first, then if not satisfied with their assistance, CANCEL BABEEE! That was awful! I'm so sorry. I feel like you've been scammed, big time. The green was fun. I really liked the green mascara on your bottom lashes. The green lip was definitely different. Thank you for the smiles! You make my day.
OMG, with everything inside the Slay Beauty Box you can create the ultimate Grinch inspired makeup and just in time for Halloween. Everything was so cool and fun, I really like watching your unboxings.
Awww, it's not easy being green! You look really really great. Honestly. I think you played up the colors, but I could also see how they would make great pops of green in other looks.
Maybe not all together - but all that green makeup would look awesome with a more grungy look and outfit. Try the gloss over a really dark or black lipstick, and the green highlight over a really dark smoky. The green mascara would probably look better on a "no makeup" day when you just want to throw on some colour. Honestly, this is so much better than another nude/brown look for me :D
I really like the green eyeshadow look. Not everyone could pull that off but you look amazing with the green. I’m not a fan of the lipgloss. You did a great job with what you had for sure! Like I said not everyone could pull that off but you definitely do❤
Not going to lie I absolutely loved this look on you! I feel like if you put a lip stain underneath the chrome lip gloss it would pop more but also look prettier cause it gives it more of dimensional look
💚💚💚 The Green lips were just amazing!! They just absolutely completed the look. Seriously though, you handled the over the top green theme like a champ! Love your videos!!
The eyes look amazing, the green mascara could be fun with a lighter contrasting color. I feel like the lips/highlight could be cool for a lot of different costume themes, especially with spooky season starting it's a fun box.
I think you've found your signature lip color 😂😂😂😂 The green eyeshadow looked really nice on you. That first box was an absolute rip off. The only good thing was the makeup bag. Especially for how much it costs, even the ipsy regular bag costs less and gives more. Thanks for sharing. I'd have paid good money to see your husband's reaction 😂😂
Oh my !!!! Everything was going great until the lips....😮😂. After I finally quit laughing and caught my breath I looked again and NOPE.... still weird. Wish I could have seen hubby's reaction.... Thank you Alexandria for making a terrible day not so terrible. Love ya...❤
I could totally see it working with some lipliner underneath. That box was giving me some Visual Kei vibes and I love it. Would look best done in a more gothic style.
I like the idea of them doing a full year of the birthstone colors. And if it's all makeup like that youncould have a really cool colletlction after a year
My favorite color is green and I love that eyeshadow palette and the mascara. I've never in my 60 years used a highlighter and I don't think I'd use that one with that palette. Those eyeshadow colors are beautiful my dear. I love your honest reactions and I love your humor. You're such a sweetheart ❤.
I've seen the unboxing of this green box so as soon as you grabbed it, i immediately got excited to see the adventure as you pulled each item out & came to realize it was a full green box!! ❤😂
I was in need of something to watch while baking and this video was expertly timed. I think the Glow Addict box is definitely not worth keeping for the price. Loved your reactions to everything, especially the highlighter. Definitely needed that laugh today!
I'm so bummed that so many subscription brands have merged and been bought out. I personally love the witch box! I'm hoping it becomes a staple in your videos! I currently have a monthly sticker subscription with Stickii and it's super cute!
You seem to have the ability to make anything look great! Green is my favorite color, tho I have never worn it like this. The lip gloss is interesting because the green shimmer moves with you, not as a solid color or shade, but more like a very bright highlight on your lips. Very unusual! Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the laugh. The eyes were fine but the lips were hilarious. You have such a fun sense of humor. Keep doing you girl; we love the long videos!!!
Its that frosted almost duo chromey lipgloss for me! And that Glow Addicts box ummm I would say the Sephora Advent Calendar was wayy better than that! lol.
wow cancel that first box. but that second one was so fun. it had a lot of nice things actually. and surprisingly i have a greenhighlighter that i have used a lot, i got it from the hocus pocus colourpop set last halloween and i really like it. nothing wrong with a subtle colored highlighter.
Oh I could have used that palette today. My daughter wanted green eyeshadow for her first softball game. The only one I had was an Ulta freebie and the pigment was weak. This box would have been perfect for her. 🤪
Great vid. Since the sunset episode my mom and I watch ur vids together and she lives the vids as much as me. And she's ENGAGED in them and that's the best thing I've seen this whole year so far. Being a caregiver to ur mom is sad and melancholic and very hard but it's harder for her, I'm sure. So, yeah ty Alexandria U R APPRECIATED!

The word dyslexia....IT'S THE ADHD! I keep telling ya....it's the ADHD. You think in 3D and that's why everything gets muddled...
I have that same style makeup bag but from Amazon and it's way cuter but it's the best makeup bag ever! The way it opens and sits is so convenient.
All the green makeup could be fun for a Halloween costume, maybe Poison Ivy?
Cancel that box!! Seriously not worth it! 😊
You can cancel glow addict and that green lip gloss 😂. I love watching your videos!
All the Glow Addict box needed was a keychain! 😂😂
And a sticker 😂
Or an invisibobble and a vitamin.
Or maybe a single sheet mask, you know push the boat out a little bit
Definitely needed a branded keychain, a hair bobble thing and some stickers. Would definitely have made it a great deal!! 😂😂
And a few disposable spoolies!
It probably is time to let go of glow addict. Changing to their own "brand" is basically a way to give you cheap drop shipped stuff for a major mark up. Wasn't it the glow addict lip plumper that gave you probably chemical burns? I think it's ok to let it go

Box #1: CANCEL!!!! Looks like SO MUCH private labeling!
Box #2: You're all set for the next St. Patrick's Day!
I was thinking the exact same thing! 😂
Halloween is coming up, and I think it's really pretty so she could use it for part of a costume.
What’s private labeling
@@djjones7039
Basically it's when Chinese manufacturers offer generic products wholesale with the option to put your private label on what you order. The products are often not very safe since these generic manufacturers have less oversight than ones owned or contracted by first world companies.

You look like Snow white. You always look so pretty no matter what. You are a master of makeup.
The green highlight on face would be great if going for a magical or non-human look, though. Witch, fairy, etc.

Okay but having like a black matte liquid lip with the green gloss on top would look amazing!
Not going to lie I absolutely loved this look on you! I feel like if you put a lip stain underneath the chrome lip gloss it would pop more but also look prettier cause it gives it more of dimensional look
The green look is awesome! Your eye colour pops with the final look. Yeah, the second box is way better.
21:16 Little Miss I’m bad at eyeshadow is just out here killing it 🙌🏻🙌🏻
the green eye shadow looks incredible on you, but lol yeah, that lip gloss gave me Zenon Girl of the 21st Century vibes!
Green is my favorite color so the second box is the best one I’ve ever seen 💚
I would totally rock an all green makeup, but the frosted green lipgloss on top of a deep teal liquid lipstick :)
💚💚💚 The Green lips were just amazing!! They just absolutely completed the look. Seriously though, you handled the over the top green theme like a champ! Love your videos!!
I’m an august baby so I know that peridot is actually the birthstone of the month! it’s a green stone, that’s probably why everything is so green lol
That was my thought exactly 😉
18:55
the shift on that gloss is gorgeous--it would be stunning layered over a really dark/deep color!
I love the green makeup, but then again I’ve been rocking that for decades!
The SlayGlam box is perfection! That’s the kind of box I always hoped for when receiving a subscription box.
Black pearls actually usually do have a different color shift like blue or purple to them
The eyes look amazing, the green mascara could be fun with a lighter contrasting color. I feel like the lips/highlight could be cool for a lot of different costume themes, especially with spooky season starting it's a fun box.
Oh, Theresa is Dead needs to see that green eye shadow palette. I love your videos Alexandria. I see the notification and can't wait to watch.
I think you've found your signature lip color 😂😂😂😂 The green eyeshadow looked really nice on you. That first box was an absolute rip off. The only good thing was the makeup bag.

100%
I like the green eyeshadow look. The green winged liner was so pretty I loved it.
Peridot is August gem.
Wooooow those are some greens! The lip gloss has such a cool container (I think that’s the best word for that. Lol)
Love that second one so much. It is lovely
Ok that gold/green gloss is cool looking!!
Oh my !!!! Everything was going great until the lips....😮😂. After I finally quit laughing and caught my breath I looked again and NOPE.... still weird. Wish I could have seen hubby's reaction.... Thank you Alexandria for making a terrible day not so terrible. Love ya...❤
I could totally see it working with some lipliner underneath. That box was giving me some Visual Kei vibes and I love it. Would look best done in a more gothic style.
I actually liked the green eyeshadow look made your eyes pop x
I like the idea of them doing a full year of the birthstone colors. And if it's all makeup like that youncould have a really cool colletlction after a year
The green eyeshadow pallet is stunning!!
Your eyes look gorgeous. I can’t believe green is so pretty.
Shrek is my favorite part of that box! Lol that is amazing!! I love your humor!!!😅😂
That emerald green tone on your lower lash line looks amazing!! Really makes your eyes pop 🥰
My favorite color is green and I love that eyeshadow palette and the mascara. I've never in my 60 years used a highlighter and I don't think I'd use that one with that palette. Those eyeshadow colors are beautiful my dear. I love your honest reactions and I love your humor. You're such a sweetheart ❤.
Green eyeshadow looks amazing on you! 💚
I absolutely love it. Green is my favorite color
Omg I really love the green EVERYTHING!! So gorg and my Birth stone is Emerald 🤑💚💚
Green eyeshadow looks good on you
I’m living for the lipgloss
I've seen the unboxing of this green box so as soon as you grabbed it, i immediately got excited to see the adventure as you pulled each item out & came to realize it was a full green box!! ❤😂
I was in need of something to watch while baking and this video was expertly timed. I think the Glow Addict box is definitely not worth keeping for the price. Loved your reactions to everything, especially the highlighter. Definitely needed that laugh today!
Halloween vampy witch makeup ! Kinda fun
I one hundred thousand percent love the green box, it's my favorite color and I would have seriously been so excited for everything in it!
my friend has a green and a blue highlighter and they just look so good on her.
My favorite color is green so I loved it 😍
Ohhh idea! Matte black lipstick with that green lip gloss over top! I bet that'd be an awesome look.
Loved the eyeshadow palette.
I LOVE that gloss.
Want!!
Rasha B palette is a WIN!!!
I'm so bummed that so many subscription brands have merged and been bought out. I personally love the witch box! I'm hoping it becomes a staple in your videos! I currently have a monthly sticker subscription with Stickii and it's super cute!
That green looks so pretty on you! You're gorgeous inside and out!
I happen to love it all, I think if you use black mascara, do the tips of your lashes in green, just a thought❤
I personally loved all the green! 💚 I think you pulled it off quite nicely.
And yes, ditch Glow Addict.
You seem to have the ability to make anything look great! Green is my favorite color, tho I have never worn it like this. The lip gloss is interesting because the green shimmer moves with you, not as a solid color or shade, but more like a very bright highlight on your lips. Very unusual! Keep up the great work!
That was hysterical! You look good in green. The sparkly green lip gloss was my favorite. Too much fun, thank you for the video.
Hi Alexandria Ryan great video I like box 2
Ok that was fun! Yes, it's the lipstick for me too! 😁
The gloss would look better over black but I love it lol I love green makeup I have green glitter gloss and Hightower
That lipgloss is honestly so gorgeous
Love watching you unbox everything.
After advent calendars, finding new boxes would be fun.
I loved the second box! I can’t wait for next month’s theme!
The green highlight would have been really fun in the inner corners
It may be very green but it is something completely different and have you and us and giggle 😂
OMG the crow.. I can't
Cancel the Glow Addict box!! Love the Slay Glam box 💚 The lip gloss is my favorite!
The green box was definitely fun and i enjoy theur theme...you could pull off an awesome wicked witch of the west makeup costume with that box 💚
Thank you for the laugh. The eyes were fine but the lips were hilarious. You have such a fun sense of humor. Keep doing you girl; we love the long videos!!!
I like the eye look. It looks better than the blue you had on a couple of videos ago. 😜❤️
@Alexandria-Ryan. I love the makeup look tough I do agree the lip color was a bit much. But I really honestly liked the green on you.
That was an adventure! 🤩
the lip gloss is so awesome
I love the eyeshadow on you. that's my favorite part.
I want the green box!!!
The eyeliner trio definitely had Mardis Gras vibes. And yes, the black looks purple.
It's magic how they made the green and whitenthe same color!
Love the video! Also, you look so pretty with the green eyeshadow!!
Its that frosted almost duo chromey lipgloss for me! And that Glow Addicts box ummm I would say the Sephora Advent Calendar was wayy better than that! lol.
I love watching your videos so much! ❤ thank you for being here
Aww thank you so much! Thank you for watching, it means the world to me!
Hands down, my favorite unboxing. 🤣🤣🤣 You make me laugh. Thank you. 🥰
Peridot is the birthstone for August which is my birthday month. As a matter of fact it was the 29th! Not that it matters.
wow cancel that first box. but that second one was so fun. it had a lot of nice things actually. and surprisingly i have a greenhighlighter that i have used a lot, i got it from the hocus pocus colourpop set last halloween and i really like it. nothing wrong with a subtle colored highlighter.
The green makeup look is so perfect for st paddy’s day
Oh I could have used that palette today. My daughter wanted green eyeshadow for her first softball game. The only one I had was an Ulta freebie and the pigment was weak. This box would have been perfect for her. 🤪
Great vid. Since the sunset episode my mom and I watch ur vids together and she lives the vids as much as me. And she's ENGAGED in them and that's the best thing I've seen this whole year so far. Being a caregiver to ur mom is sad and melancholic and very hard but it's harder for her, I'm sure. So, yeah ty Alexandria U R APPRECIATED!
Love your videos so much! They are so relatable!!!!
I’m so glad you enjoy them! Have a wonderful day!!
@@Alexandria-Ryan Thanks! You too!
Pretty Obsessed is a great subscription box in the UK. Not sure if they deliver to over places but would be a good box to look into I think
I really liked the makeup look! And yes, it's very early 2000s but so much fun!
I want that green pallet!
I love how it actually has a theme!! I don’t like green. But I appreciate this box. I don’t hate it.
the green looks really good on you :)
