Hey guys! So I have heard that this is the BEST advent calendar EVER and I have been so excited to unbox it! This is FOR SURE my favorite advent calendar this year so far and I think it definitely has a chance or taking that title! But what do you guys think about this being the BEST EVER?? Let me know what you think! Love ya💖
Full size items!?….MULTIPLE in one box?!? Almost a FULL FACE?!?! This is what a makeup advent calendar should be! And shocker it didn’t have to cost $500-$1000 to be that good. They killed it! 👏👏👏😌💕
BUt if P Loise did stickers and hair ties and sheet masks - I bet we would be getting sets that would last all year with fun and detail...Gosh, I would love to see their take on stickers, it would prob be enough to cover every surface and have lights!
This is an advent calendar that a working makeup artist could buy for themself and not feel guilty. Great for using on a range of skintones for a range of looks.
@@pinktastic6159a range of all skin tones and also keep mind u.k. females are very much into that deep tan with y2k make up looks so if you know that style or old enough to remember then you know the make up style they brought back over there. I am fare skin and would use all these color's but it comes down to how heavy hand or light as a feather hand you are to be able to pull off these shades..
@@mercedesvelasquez8781That's what I decided when I was opening all of mine today because there's no way I could wait a day at a time lol. I was hesitant to keep everything for my makeup table but then I decided that I could probably make everything work mixing and matching what not. I would have preferred some more colors directed for the fair skinned, especially since the two little pallets are the exact colors as the large palette even if the names are different but overall I feel I got great value
With that range of palettes and products, am looking forward to a mini-series of looks....maybe themed for events around christmas. I'm from the UK so am not totally familiar with how other countries celebrate the holidays but I would suggest. Christmas Eve party with friends, a nice practical all-day look (but a bit glittery) for family christmas day, a chill boxing day look - then of course all over sparkle and fun new years eve look!
My guess for their thinking about putting most of the makeup products early in the calendar is that if you're opening this throughout December it gives you a lot of time to actually get maximum use of it over the holiday party season.
I had the same thought. I also thought those days 15 through 20 in December are when I'm tired, wondering why we do this to ourselves every year (the shopping, the constant events, the late night wrapping and baking sessions, the pressure to get everything done, that one last trip to the mall-ugh mall parking) and could use a little skin care and pampering. Then the excitement ramps back up those last few days!
@@amysanangel76 Yeah that definitely feels like the Self-Care section of the calendar before switching back for the last few days of make-up again for a big send off.
In the roughly 5-6 years I've been watching Advent calendar unboxings, this is by far the best makeup Advent calendar I've seen from any brand. If I were one to wear makeup on a daily or even a several days a week basis I would so buy this calendar for myself.
If I were ever going to blow $300 on an advent calendar, this would be the brand I purchase from! The details are so adorable and the ahades are actually wearable!!
Whoa - Safe to say the bar has been raised! My main thoughts throughout this whole video was that this calendar so accurately exposes the crazy mark ups in the cosmetic industry. Even with the higher price point, the sheer amount of quality items, coupled with high production value really highlights how shamelessly other brands rip off the consumer.
Seriously…the fact that it seems like no other company even CARES they just slip some garbage in without any thought at all. The amount of companies that are charging $50 or more for free samples is insane
P Louise started as a makeup academy, and still is. The products are geared towards professional makeup kits and versatility for a range of looks and tones without needing a bunch of different products. That’s why you tend to see bigger palettes offered. Which is always a treat for individual consumers!
P. Louise is setting a very high bar for all the other beauty advent calendars. This is the best advent calendar ive seen so far. The whole thing is adorable and great products.
So what I’m hearing you say, is if I save up $37.33 a month from now until August, then I’ll have just enough by the time the preorder rolls around for 2024! 😂😅❤️ This really is one of the best and most unique advent boxes. I also love the packaging! It’s the cutest!
Wow, just WOW! P. Louise has topped the advent calendar game! Not a sample size or mini squeezy tube in sight and the packaging?! OMG! The fact that you got that whole SET of brushes and PALETTES of eyeshadows, blushes and bronzers, WITH tools and product to go with it, not to mention 6 lip liners and so much more is just unheard of with these advent calendars. Kylie, Sephora or Ulta could NEVER!!! Bravo... Bravo!❤👏🎄
I LOVE how inclusive their colors are, especially for people of color. This really is a great advent calendar for a huge variety of skin tones. I'm so impressed that they gave so many different colors in so many palettes.
I don't like super "girly" pink stuff but I *love* P. Louise's packaging! It's really cute and fun but also well made and a little bit elevated with the layering and the lights and everything. Plus the products are *actually* good?! This is how brands should do advent calendars!
same- not exactly a girly girl and i dont wear makeup on a regular basis but i LOVE p louise packaging so much and got convinced to order their stuff after watching her p louise video last year! and i still love it all and their products are GREAT. this vid is making me want to get more 😅
@thelastnashie8811. That is insane, if I buy from ColorPop it only cost me about £14.00 with tax and customs inc.for a parcel about the size of 2 shoes boxes ( just ordered for christmas), to UK, so is it the charges at your end that cost so much, but not so much if buying from UK.. I wonder..
Dobbelt tap over the heart with the PL inside and over the 3th window at the other side, where it says EMPIRE. The windows on both sides should light up - I just learned that today myself 😄
The packaging is SO cute, and the number of products is outstanding. The level of excitement you showed while opening each day is what other companies should aspire to deliver. Also, P Louise has one of the few advent calendars with 25 days, so you actually have something to open on Christmas Day.
I know you said others think the packaging is too much, but I LOVE it! Like you, I am a sucker for packaging and I love how absolutely cute everything is. There is sparkle and crowns...wow! A company that actually puts a lot of effort into their advent calendar instead of just throwing a bunch of crap in a box and ta-da! I totally loved this box and wish I could afford it. Thank you so much for getting it so we could live vicariously through you!
I don't see how this can be topped. P. Louise hand down won Advent season. Everything was so cute and usable. Thanks for sharing! I hope your tongue feels better soon. You look beautiful as always.
This advent calendar is what ALL advent calendars should aspire to be like! P. Louise just killed it with this one 🎉 they definitely won the advent calendar game! Fun video to watch 😊 enjoy!
I don’t buy advent calendars because they always disappoint. I would buy this one next year and I don’t even wear that much makeup! This is just so much fun, and exciting how could you not love it!
Wow I am blown away by the P. Louise advent calendar! A genuinely great value AND beautifully packaged. The fact that they matched the packaging of their products to the calendar is just so extra and I am living for it. This is a company that wanted to impress the recipients of the calendar.
I like to think the “Advent Calendar Department” of P.Louis saw your videos last year and said “Challenge accepted!! There will be NO stickers!” And the packaging makes the product just feel more luxurious and special, more of a “treat” than “just” lipstick, ya know? So I’d actually buy this one!!! Keep the goodies then give the “house” to my daughter; she would LOVE it!!!! I’m SO sorry you hurt yourself!!!! At least it was for a good reason? Pizza is a good reason.
This is how you do it! I would appreciate a more affordable version (maybe a $100 12 day?) but this was worth the price, unlike most advents these days.
Now THAT is what an Advent calendar is supposed to be! Excitement, anticipation, enjoyment and the feeling that you are getting value! With the last day the star of the show (and 25 days too)! And it really was a great variety of the company’s products too (but you didn’t feel you were getting the left overs or products that they couldn’t sell, you felt you were getting wonderful items curated especially for you!). I have never heard of this company but if I got that Advent calendar, I would be a customer for life! Other companies should take notes!
Now THAT'S how you do an advent calendar! Great design on the calendar, full sized products (love the multiple items for 1 day, like the brushes & lip liners), good variety & you can definitely see the value. I'm impressed with P. Louise!
Yes, the things inside were exclusive to this advent calendar and not sold seperately. And now the advent calendar is gone from the website and I wish I had grabbed it 😢
I ordered this advent calendar too. It's supposed to be full of exclusive & unreleased items that are in the advent calendar. This video gets me really excited because my calendar hasn't got here yet & i can't wait to open it. Hopefully it arrives soon 😀
I just got mine on yesterday and I'm in loveeeeeeee!!! My mom bought this for me for my birthday and I told her this was a birthday and Christmas gift wrapped in one. She was able to get it with Klarna because it was a hefty $363 total but with everything that comes with it....soooo worth it!!! Considering all full size products. Enjoy!!!
I'm already in love with this advent calendar just by the light-up castle box alone... and with all the wonderfully packaged and designed FULL-SIZE items?! It's honestly worth the $300+, especially given the price of P. Louise products. 💖
This might be the best one of this year. Items made specifically for the calender, all full size, almost all makeup. Impressive. Nice large items. Big item for the last day. They made an effort of sending different shades to be inclusive (a huge difficulty for advent calendars)
The tones and shades that this calendar added really showed their efforts to cover all skin tones. I appreciate that. It’s not an easy process but it is something that takes care and effort and this company did it!!!
All the products are exclusive to the calendar. I ordered this in the uk and paid £1 shipping. Loving the series and I just love watching you all year round. You keep it real and you're so funny XOXO
This is by far my fave cLendar you've ever opened. The attention to detail, the size of the products, the double products in one day, and can we talk about that brush set?! Amazing! Just wish I could afford it lmao
If you want a break from the advents you should do a full face with some of the things you got in this calendar! I want to see that first highlighter in action ☺️
The thung i love about makeup is that if you get blush or highlighter shades(for example) that arent yiur shade match, you can use them for other things, like eyeshadow
I've decided I'm calling you Advent Alex. You have the best, and most well-informed videos on YT when it comes to calendars. Joy at Christmas is really hard for me to find, and I so appreciate what you do. It' brings back a bit of a smile. Thank you for that:)
I love watching your excitement with this calendar. This is the JOY of the advent calendar. You have spent so much time and energy on these calendars over the years. I wish that more of them had given you the joy you had in this video. You deserve it. Thanks for wading through all the swamps of terrible advent calendars and sharing the joy of the good ones. Merry Christmas Alexandria.
I would love to see a video where you review the products you actually use over time. Which products have you really loved and what products have you really not liked that you’ve kept after first impressions? Maybe even an empties video of the products you used up!
I am 53 years old and I appreciate a pallet of eyeshadow that two years later I can still smell chocolate, I don’t know why but it brings me so much delight it’s ridiculous and frankly it makes me want to use that palette more even if it’s not my favorite. Could you imagine giving a 13 year old girl that’s starting out their make up collection something like this. If I was a grandmother of a teen this would be a top present for me to give.
My cousin walked out the door to for opening day of buck season in her most stylish camo and yep, "hunting vest orange" eyeshadow with full eyelashes. She always gets made fun of by our hillbilly family, and she always gets the first deer. 😂
I absolutely love how brutally honest you are about everything. You're so inspiring the way you spell your thoughts out loud you do it very well and I always ALWAYS know I'll end up having a good laugh right along with you when I watch your videos. Thank you for that. When I'm having a bad day, I just watch your videos and it helps. I know that may not mean much of really I doubt you will even see this. But thank you. ❤
Ordered this the day it released for my daughter...it finally arrived yesterday (Nov. 27). This seems clearly an edit built for MUA's, but who cares!! It's sooo fun! Thank you for sharing with us!
Despite it being too expensive for me, it does seem to have value and be the best advent calendar so far. It's really, really cute. There were also multiple items on some of the days. A whole SET of brushes. Lip duos. A bunch of lip liners... on top of full sized products. $13 per day, but not $13 per item.
Also, I just went and watched last year’s calendar, and can we take a moment to appreciate not only how consistently good this has been both years, but also the fact that they’re COMPLETELY different from each other. Different products, different colors, a whole new theme?! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 EVERY other brand should take note, give us something different to look forward to every year and people will want to buy it every year!
I think one of the best things about this calendar is that even if you don't like the items, everything was so fun to open. All the boxes were so pretty to see and I can imagine they look even cuter in person. For this calendar, minus day 24 &25, I think you could open the boxes in a random order and feel like you were always getting a treat. Can't wait to see what comes next.
So for a hot minute I was thinking of getting this for my niece who's getting into makeup and would love the packaging. But it was just too expensive and finances are not great right now. But it was great to see all the products and the thought they put into it. As for the body glow stuff, they're probably thinking it can be used if you're going out for New Years and you want some sparkle.
P. Louise killed it🔥 as far as preferences go, I would've preferred the last palette to have more reds, greens, icy blues, crystal whites etc, more christmassy colors but honestly the best calendar I've seen this year! I can see why they completely sold out.
Wow! Now that's an ADVENT CALENDAR! So happy to watch your joy opening this calendar! Now all we need is a cool look from you! I also love your Christmas tree and "snow bank" beds for the pups!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This advent calendar was FABULOUS! I will definitely be on the lookout for it next year! I love calendars that send full size products with palettes galore! And the icing on the cake is the box!!!
I love that there are more full sized items. I do feel the giant palette makes the mini ones a bit redundant and wish it would have been more of a mix to cool and warm options, since winter is my a cool tone season
P Louise really knocks it out of the park. I’m not a big make-up person but it really seems like it’s worth the cost for all the products and the attention to detail
This was an awesome advent calendar! If it applies anything like the Dior Backstage Rosy Glow blush that kicked off the bubble gum pink blush trend that duo from Day 24 will be gorgeous on you. The color looks super intense in the pan, but when you apply it it just gives the most beautiful winter cheek like appearance.
The sheer joy this brought, makes it worth every penny. Next year I will be gifting this to my kid. As a multiethnic person, they often have issues with boxes because they are not curated for multi tones of skin. This one would be perfect for them!
I, for one, would loooove to get this advent calendar. I don’t mind that the palettes are almost all clustered together, or that there are two similar products for several body or face areas. It just gives plenty of choices for all skin colors/tones and preferences. This is, certainly, the best advent calendar I have ever seen. Eat your heart out Kylie, Sephora & Ipsy!!! This is proof that all those brands could easily create beautiful and versatile advent calendars, full of full size items that can accommodate all audiences.
What an advent calendar! I wish I had someone on my Christmas list who was just getting into makeup. This is everything they need (and more) to start their make-up stash! ❤
I ship to family overseas and friends in Canada. The shipping is crazy expensive. I paid $56 for a lot lighter package. So I'm impressed they got it over the pond that cheaply. The advent calendar is probably the best I've seen product wise. Add in the cute themed packaging❤❤❤adorable. The gingerbread house and train would become part of my Christmas decor😅 great box. I hope your tongue heals soon.
This Advent calendar from P. Louise definitely seems like a way nicer & better Advent calendar than the Sephora one...and than a lot of other ones too. This one is definitely my favorite of the Advent calendars.
Definitely...beyond definitely THIS is the best advent calendar by far! The attention to detail, the adorable packaging, the FULL size items, the multiple items in one day..yup! Win for sure!
This advent calendar is way out of my price range, but it’s absolutely adorable, and way more worth it than any of the others so far. I actually don’t expect any other calendar will top this. I’ve never seen one that included so many palettes, so much makeup, and not even a single day that seemed to only be filler. There were no cheap baubles or stickers or anything! Lol. I love it. They outdid themselves, imo.
I remember seeing another person unbox this calendar a little bit ago, and my first thought was how much you would love it because 1. Cute 2. Makeup I was super excited to see you actually got one. Watching you unbox it definitely was not a disappointment. These are always my favorite vidoes.
that calendar was worth it... the packaging was sooo precious and the fact you did not get stickers or sample size or hair ties is just amazing ... yes you are paying more but I would rather pay more and get an amazing Calendar then paying half the price and ending up with crap ... will have to look into next yrs... I would love to have something like this to open every Day counting down to Christmas !!!
I love this advent calender so much. I love the packaging, the thought and creativity that PL puts into their products is top-notch. If you have several makeup lovers in your family, this would be a great calendar buy and divide the products up. I was also thinking it would be fun for mom and tween/teen or young adult daughters or sons to share and open together. Each person would never feel like they got cheated. I was so excited when I saw this video post. I waited until I got to the gym to watch. At the end of the workout, when I was doing my 30-minute treadmill walk, it made the time fly by.
I guess I’m feeling feisty (or cranky from just waking up from a nap), because when you opened the shimmer cream and then didn’t try it I said (out loud) “Well at least swatch it if you’re going to open it!” LOL Absolutely love watching you open everything and it’s so nice to see you so excited about one for once! I bought the Anthropologie calendar and have been anxiously awaiting December 1st!
I feel like this would be the perfect gift for a young girl who's just getting into makeup. Like this is the one big showstopper xmas present. Can't believe how many palettes were included!
Hey guys! So I have heard that this is the BEST advent calendar EVER and I have been so excited to unbox it! This is FOR SURE my favorite advent calendar this year so far and I think it definitely has a chance or taking that title! But what do you guys think about this being the BEST EVER?? Let me know what you think! Love ya💖
Well better than any of the other advent calendars you’ve unboxed this year by far!! 💋🎀🎁💄
Meh. Love u though ❤
i seriously want the castle box. and i love this brands products
The teenage girl that lives inside me was super excited so 🥰 cute.
You are never too old to have fun 😲
The fact that there was NOT ONE sample size or mini 0.1 oz squeeze tube already is a step up. The fact it is ALL *full sized* items.... Well done.
P Louise going for the redemption arc. Smart move!
And they still did multiple full size items each day!! That blew my mind 😂😂😂
Full size items!?….MULTIPLE in one box?!? Almost a FULL FACE?!?! This is what a makeup advent calendar should be! And shocker it didn’t have to cost $500-$1000 to be that good. They killed it! 👏👏👏😌💕
OMG!! Not a sticker, hair tie, or face sheet mask in sight!!! I think that P. Louise just won Advent Season!!
BUt if P Loise did stickers and hair ties and sheet masks - I bet we would be getting sets that would last all year with fun and detail...Gosh, I would love to see their take on stickers, it would prob be enough to cover every surface and have lights!
Exactly!
This is an advent calendar that a working makeup artist could buy for themself and not feel guilty. Great for using on a range of skintones for a range of looks.
*a range of WARM skin tones.
@@pinktastic6159disagree. A lot of that could be used on fair and dark skin tones
@@pinktastic6159a range of all skin tones and also keep mind u.k. females are very much into that deep tan with y2k make up looks so if you know that style or old enough to remember then you know the make up style they brought back over there.

This is something I could see getting my girls for Christmas when they’re 16/17
Not even 7 min in and its 100% better than any of the other makeup calendars! P. Louise just winning the advent calendar game!
I totally agree!!
Ikr😁
They did what no one else can do…. They gave us 25 FULL SIZE items!!! Way to go P Louise!!
And the last day was something massive and thoughtful and not a sticker or little pin!
more than 25! some days had 2 or more full sized ones!
If I wore makeup, I would buy this
Not even full sized items! Like not even "Day 3 here's A single blush" it's Day 3 here's a 6 blush PALETTE. Crazy.
And a vibrator pre-loaded with battery power 😮 !!
I think we need to do a full face using this advent calendar! I'm loving this one
Yes! Please do a full face with these products, it's such a cohesive collection I'd love a video just using them together!
Absolutely. I want to see the quality of this makeup. You couldn't even buy this much Elf product now with $200.
With that range of palettes and products, am looking forward to a mini-series of looks....maybe themed for events around christmas. I'm from the UK so am not totally familiar with how other countries celebrate the holidays but I would suggest. Christmas Eve party with friends, a nice practical all-day look (but a bit glittery) for family christmas day, a chill boxing day look - then of course all over sparkle and fun new years eve look!
Love this idea
Yesss! 🤩

@@amysanangel76 Yeah that definitely feels like the Self-Care section of the calendar before switching back for the last few days of make-up again for a big send off.

Even with the higher price point, the sheer amount of quality items, coupled with high production value really highlights how shamelessly other brands rip off the consumer.
PL is a racist that tried to profit off of people calling her out on using the N word. The bar is lower than low here.
Seriously…the fact that it seems like no other company even CARES they just slip some garbage in without any thought at all. The amount of companies that are charging $50 or more for free samples is insane
Chanel I’m looking at you!

UK standard shipping for PLouise is £2 (USD $2.54). Costs a fortune to send parcels abroad!
I send gifts to my friend in the UK from the US and it’s usually no bigger than a shoebox and generally costs $60-$80 just to ship. It’s insane
@thelastnashie8811. That is insane, if I buy from ColorPop it only cost me about £14.00 with tax and customs inc.for a parcel about the size of 2 shoes boxes ( just ordered for christmas), to UK, so is it the charges at your end that cost so much, but not so much if buying from UK.. I wonder..
@thelastnashie8811 I ship things to my fiancé in the US from Canada and even just that is bonkers so I can't even imagine shipping to the UK
Dobbelt tap over the heart with the PL inside and over the 3th window at the other side, where it says EMPIRE. The windows on both sides should light up - I just learned that today myself 😄

Right the packaging is absolutely adorable! I am obsessed with it lol 😅
It is what an advent calendar should look like! Not crazy wild mod designs that have nothing to do with the holidays!
Their lip pencils are $22 each on their site. They included 5 in one day!
That’s already $110 of value in ONE DAY!
they included 6 actually😭
Hallelujah! 🎉 it’s finally happened. A calendar thats actually worth it. Thank you for sharing and restoring faith in the 2023 season. 🎉
I don't see how this can be topped. P. Louise hand down won Advent season. Everything was so cute and usable. Thanks for sharing! I hope your tongue feels better soon. You look beautiful as always.
This advent calendar is what ALL advent calendars should aspire to be like! P. Louise just killed it with this one 🎉 they definitely won the advent calendar game! Fun video to watch 😊 enjoy!
I don’t buy advent calendars because they always disappoint. I would buy this one next year and I don’t even wear that much makeup! This is just so much fun, and exciting how could you not love it!
Wow I am blown away by the P. Louise advent calendar! A genuinely great value AND beautifully packaged. The fact that they matched the packaging of their products to the calendar is just so extra and I am living for it. This is a company that wanted to impress the recipients of the calendar.
I like to think the “Advent Calendar Department” of P.Louis saw your videos last year and said “Challenge accepted!! There will be NO stickers!”
And the packaging makes the product just feel more luxurious and special, more of a “treat” than “just” lipstick, ya know?
So I’d actually buy this one!!!
Keep the goodies then give the “house” to my daughter; she would LOVE it!!!!
I’m SO sorry you hurt yourself!!!! At least it was for a good reason? Pizza is a good reason.
They had great full size products last year too and no stickers. :)
This is how you do it! I would appreciate a more affordable version (maybe a $100 12 day?) but this was worth the price, unlike most advents these days.
She did have a smaller version. I think it was 10 or 12 days.
There is a 10 day calendar
Hey do a budget 12 day calender for £60
Now THAT is what an Advent calendar is supposed to be! Excitement, anticipation, enjoyment and the feeling that you are getting value! With the last day the star of the show (and 25 days too)! And it really was a great variety of the company’s products too (but you didn’t feel you were getting the left overs or products that they couldn’t sell, you felt you were getting wonderful items curated especially for you!). I have never heard of this company but if I got that Advent calendar, I would be a customer for life! Other companies should take notes!
Honestly I think it's going to be hard to beat this calendar. So beautiful!!!
Unbelievable how much value in this Calendar. Definitely worth the $300
And a little girl would love to play Barbies with the House.❤
This is absolutely how advent calendars should be done!!! Sooo many products and so much of it is usable and adorable!
Now THAT'S how you do an advent calendar! Great design on the calendar, full sized products (love the multiple items for 1 day, like the brushes & lip liners), good variety & you can definitely see the value. I'm impressed with P. Louise!
Yes, the things inside were exclusive to this advent calendar and not sold seperately. And now the advent calendar is gone from the website and I wish I had grabbed it 😢
P. Louise is really carrying the entire make up industry right now.
Making people as excited and inspired as we were in 2016!
I lost my Mom in July and I wasn’t looking forward to the holidays but these advent calendar videos help make it better. Thank you Alexandria! ♥️
Sorry for your loss 😔 it’s good to hear these videos are helping
@@brightknight1965Thank you ❤️
I'm sorry. I lost my mom in January.
I’m sorry for your loss. I lost my Mom last November, and the holidays are still hard this year. Distraction is very helpful!
I lost my mom in May and I absolutely understand what you mean. Love and peace to you as we navigate this painful and hard season. 💜
Most of this makeup is EXTREMELY warm toned and reminds me of 2015 instagram makeup
I ordered this advent calendar too. It's supposed to be full of exclusive & unreleased items that are in the advent calendar. This video gets me really excited because my calendar hasn't got here yet & i can't wait to open it. Hopefully it arrives soon 😀
Have you gotten your shipping confirmation yet . Cuz I ordered one also and getting worried it won’t get here in time 😭
@@shailasifuentes5903I got mine this week and I never got a shipping notification lol
You could pay Sephora $5000 and there still wouldn't be as much make-up.
I just got mine on yesterday and I'm in loveeeeeeee!!! My mom bought this for me for my birthday and I told her this was a birthday and Christmas gift wrapped in one. She was able to get it with Klarna because it was a hefty $363 total but with everything that comes with it....soooo worth it!!! Considering all full size products. Enjoy!!!
I'm already in love with this advent calendar just by the light-up castle box alone... and with all the wonderfully packaged and designed FULL-SIZE items?! It's honestly worth the $300+, especially given the price of P. Louise products. 💖
This might be the best one of this year. Items made specifically for the calender, all full size, almost all makeup. Impressive. Nice large items. Big item for the last day. They made an effort of sending different shades to be inclusive (a huge difficulty for advent calendars)
The tones and shades that this calendar added really showed their efforts to cover all skin tones. I appreciate that. It’s not an easy process but it is something that takes care and effort and this company did it!!!
All the products are exclusive to the calendar. I ordered this in the uk and paid £1 shipping. Loving the series and I just love watching you all year round. You keep it real and you're so funny XOXO
This is by far my fave cLendar you've ever opened. The attention to detail, the size of the products, the double products in one day, and can we talk about that brush set?! Amazing! Just wish I could afford it lmao
That was an awesome calendar. As a kid, I would have been begging for the box for a Barbie house! LOL
Alexandria mentioning shipping so she can add it on her taxes 😂. I love her to pieces.
This is literally probably the best advent calendar I've ever seen on this channel. I absolutely loved this one.
I don't think I have ever seen you so happy after an advent unboxing LOL
This is the kind of review people deserve, you're honest and direct without being a garbage person! Love it!
If you want a break from the advents you should do a full face with some of the things you got in this calendar! I want to see that first highlighter in action ☺️
The thung i love about makeup is that if you get blush or highlighter shades(for example) that arent yiur shade match, you can use them for other things, like eyeshadow
I've decided I'm calling you Advent Alex. You have the best, and most well-informed videos on YT when it comes to calendars. Joy at Christmas is really hard for me to find, and I so appreciate what you do. It' brings back a bit of a smile. Thank you for that:)
I love watching your excitement with this calendar. This is the JOY of the advent calendar. You have spent so much time and energy on these calendars over the years. I wish that more of them had given you the joy you had in this video. You deserve it. Thanks for wading through all the swamps of terrible advent calendars and sharing the joy of the good ones. Merry Christmas Alexandria.
Imagine that - a whole calendar full of really nice full-size items. It is beautiful.
I would love to see a video where you review the products you actually use over time. Which products have you really loved and what products have you really not liked that you’ve kept after first impressions? Maybe even an empties video of the products you used up!
After watching you open so many disappointing or average calendars...I was excited for you opening all of this! Gorgeous high value calendar!
I am 53 years old and I appreciate a pallet of eyeshadow that two years later I can still smell chocolate, I don’t know why but it brings me so much delight it’s ridiculous and frankly it makes me want to use that palette more even if it’s not my favorite.
Could you imagine giving a 13 year old girl that’s starting out their make up collection something like this. If I was a grandmother of a teen this would be a top present for me to give.
My cousin walked out the door to for opening day of buck season in her most stylish camo and yep, "hunting vest orange" eyeshadow with full eyelashes. She always gets made fun of by our hillbilly family, and she always gets the first deer. 😂
I absolutely love how brutally honest you are about everything. You're so inspiring the way you spell your thoughts out loud you do it very well and I always ALWAYS know I'll end up having a good laugh right along with you when I watch your videos. Thank you for that. When I'm having a bad day, I just watch your videos and it helps. I know that may not mean much of really I doubt you will even see this. But thank you. ❤
Ordered this the day it released for my daughter...it finally arrived yesterday (Nov. 27). This seems clearly an edit built for MUA's, but who cares!! It's sooo fun! Thank you for sharing with us!
P.Louise is a brand specifically for MUA's to build up their kit.
@BuinidhMoChridheDoAlba Thx Tasha, thought so! 😊
this would be such a cute gift for a teenager just getting into makeup. it really seems like it sets you up with sooo much!
60 dollars for shipping
me who regularly orders from a proxy site from japan which has really high shipping fees
So happy to see this advent calendar again. You get so excited as you open all these PLouise boxes. Love watching you open this
It’s so nice to see an Advent Calendar that isn’t just out to make a buck at Christmas! P Louise never disappoints❤❤
Despite it being too expensive for me, it does seem to have value and be the best advent calendar so far. It's really, really cute. There were also multiple items on some of the days. A whole SET of brushes. Lip duos. A bunch of lip liners... on top of full sized products. $13 per day, but not $13 per item.
Also, I just went and watched last year’s calendar, and can we take a moment to appreciate not only how consistently good this has been both years, but also the fact that they’re COMPLETELY different from each other. Different products, different colors, a whole new theme?! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 EVERY other brand should take note, give us something different to look forward to every year and people will want to buy it every year!
It seems P Louise wanted to make an inclusive calendar that covered as many skin tones as possible so gave a bounty of items and options ❤
I think one of the best things about this calendar is that even if you don't like the items, everything was so fun to open. All the boxes were so pretty to see and I can imagine they look even cuter in person. For this calendar, minus day 24 &25, I think you could open the boxes in a random order and feel like you were always getting a treat. Can't wait to see what comes next.
I’m so happy you’ve finally gotten the advent calendar you deserve!
This is a work of art between the attention to detail of the packaging and full size useable products!
So for a hot minute I was thinking of getting this for my niece who's getting into makeup and would love the packaging. But it was just too expensive and finances are not great right now. But it was great to see all the products and the thought they put into it. As for the body glow stuff, they're probably thinking it can be used if you're going out for New Years and you want some sparkle.
P. Louise killed it🔥 as far as preferences go, I would've preferred the last palette to have more reds, greens, icy blues, crystal whites etc, more christmassy colors but honestly the best calendar I've seen this year! I can see why they completely sold out.
Aww Ali your tree is beautiful!! The pups are probably thinking what a great Mom you are to give them their own tree 🌲
This calendar sets you up to be a pro MUA! A little something for everyone! Such a great calendar! ❤
Wow! Now that's an ADVENT CALENDAR! So happy to watch your joy opening this calendar! Now all we need is a cool look from you! I also love your Christmas tree and "snow bank" beds for the pups!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This advent calendar was FABULOUS! I will definitely be on the lookout for it next year! I love calendars that send full size products with palettes galore! And the icing on the cake is the box!!!
I love that there are more full sized items. I do feel the giant palette makes the mini ones a bit redundant and wish it would have been more of a mix to cool and warm options, since winter is my a cool tone season
The little ones can go in a bag, or to do touch ups
I so love to see the smile on face and hear the excitement in Your voice while opening up and revealing the products.
It’s a Christmas miracle you got this video done quick sis!! We love these videos. Keep ‘em coming 😊
P Louise really knocks it out of the park. I’m not a big make-up person but it really seems like it’s worth the cost for all the products and the attention to detail
This was an awesome advent calendar! If it applies anything like the Dior Backstage Rosy Glow blush that kicked off the bubble gum pink blush trend that duo from Day 24 will be gorgeous on you. The color looks super intense in the pan, but when you apply it it just gives the most beautiful winter cheek like appearance.
The sheer joy this brought, makes it worth every penny.
Next year I will be gifting this to my kid. As a multiethnic person, they often have issues with boxes because they are not curated for multi tones of skin. This one would be perfect for them!
I also bought this advent calendar (in August) and ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! TOTALLY WORTH IT!
I, for one, would loooove to get this advent calendar. I don’t mind that the palettes are almost all clustered together, or that there are two similar products for several body or face areas. It just gives plenty of choices for all skin colors/tones and preferences.
This is, certainly, the best advent calendar I have ever seen.
Eat your heart out Kylie, Sephora & Ipsy!!! This is proof that all those brands could easily create beautiful and versatile advent calendars, full of full size items that can accommodate all audiences.
What an advent calendar! I wish I had someone on my Christmas list who was just getting into makeup. This is everything they need (and more) to start their make-up stash! ❤
I ship to family overseas and friends in Canada. The shipping is crazy expensive. I paid $56 for a lot lighter package. So I'm impressed they got it over the pond that cheaply. The advent calendar is probably the best I've seen product wise. Add in the cute themed packaging❤❤❤adorable. The gingerbread house and train would become part of my Christmas decor😅 great box. I hope your tongue heals soon.
A makeup Advent calendar that actually has makeup in it! Scary did hell freeze over?
I think this is the best advent calendar i have ever watched on your channel or......anywhere. The desing and so much decorative make up, it`a awsm!
This Advent calendar from P. Louise definitely seems like a way nicer & better Advent calendar than the Sephora one...and than a lot of other ones too. This one is definitely my favorite of the Advent calendars.
Definitely...beyond definitely THIS is the best advent calendar by far! The attention to detail, the adorable packaging, the FULL size items, the multiple items in one day..yup! Win for sure!
This advent calendar is way out of my price range, but it’s absolutely adorable, and way more worth it than any of the others so far. I actually don’t expect any other calendar will top this. I’ve never seen one that included so many palettes, so much makeup, and not even a single day that seemed to only be filler. There were no cheap baubles or stickers or anything! Lol. I love it. They outdid themselves, imo.
I’ve been dying to watch you open this! I’ve seen others opening theirs but I wanted to watch you open it first because you’re my favorite unboxer!
Six days in and there's more actual value than every other calendar you've opened so far! Go P. Louise!
I remember seeing another person unbox this calendar a little bit ago, and my first thought was how much you would love it because
1. Cute
2. Makeup
I was super excited to see you actually got one. Watching you unbox it definitely was not a disappointment. These are always my favorite vidoes.
that calendar was worth it... the packaging was sooo precious and the fact you did not get stickers or sample size or hair ties is just amazing ... yes you are paying more but I would rather pay more and get an amazing Calendar then paying half the price and ending up with crap ... will have to look into next yrs... I would love to have something like this to open every Day counting down to Christmas !!!
I love this advent calender so much. I love the packaging, the thought and creativity that PL puts into their products is top-notch. If you have several makeup lovers in your family, this would be a great calendar buy and divide the products up. I was also thinking it would be fun for mom and tween/teen or young adult daughters or sons to share and open together. Each person would never feel like they got cheated. I was so excited when I saw this video post. I waited until I got to the gym to watch. At the end of the workout, when I was doing my 30-minute treadmill walk, it made the time fly by.
I guess I’m feeling feisty (or cranky from just waking up from a nap), because when you opened the shimmer cream and then didn’t try it I said (out loud) “Well at least swatch it if you’re going to open it!” LOL Absolutely love watching you open everything and it’s so nice to see you so excited about one for once! I bought the Anthropologie calendar and have been anxiously awaiting December 1st!
I feel like this would be the perfect gift for a young girl who's just getting into makeup. Like this is the one big showstopper xmas present. Can't believe how many palettes were included!
