WHY DID IT GET WORSE?! Huda Beauty Advent Unboxing (25 Calendars of Christmas #14)

[@Alexandria-Ryan]

Hey guys! I missed you all! Im back with the Huda Beauty Advent calendar for 2022 and is it just me or is this a downgrade? I don't remember the Huda calendars ever being my absolute favorite but I feel like this year its taken another step down! What do you guys think? Let me know! Love ya💖

[@KG9551]

Here’s my tip as a vocalist who gets raspy often: Celestial seasonings Apple cinnamon herbal tea with about two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and as much honey as you’d like. Drink often. Really helps clear the lingering scratch and phlegm. Hope you feel better soon!

[@jamiesides306]

Last year wasn't great. The year before that was the best!

[@itsthatlady]

Not having a palette is super disappointing.

[@jenlynch5550]

Honestly, if I pay over $100 for an advent calendar and get any portion of a face mask.... I'm flipping a table 🙃

Right? And not even ONE pallete

lol...I can almost picture that

[@jmarshal]

This is a normal response. Beauty companies, take note!

[@maddiemcnugget1076]

ikr? I love face masks and sheet masks, but unless its a clay/liquid mask that comes in a tube (aka the ones you can use multiple times) I would be upset. You have to give me like, ten of those for me to be happy.

[@Tsmoke1414]

It doesn’t matter if your voice is scratchy, I will still listen to you. I have been binging your Advent calendar unboxings.

[@eryuu4016]

Right?! I've been binging her too.

[@Aenays]

Thanks for finishing the video! I hope you feel better! I cannot believe that is $175 . I wouldn’t even pay 30 for this. I got the Harrods advent calendar and it was $200 and had 1500$ value. I’m so happy with it. Even the By Terry which is luxury make up is $130 now and has better stuff.

[@little78lucky]

At the end I said "that is a $25 box"

[@AbstractlyMe83]

The brush should come with the product. That would free up 2 more days, and you DEFINITELY should have gotten an eyeshadow palette. This, once again, proves how advent calendars are a scam

[@nolasalazar]

The KayAli Vanilla 28’s juice gets darker over time. It’s actually a good thing. I have several bottles and the deeper the color gets on mine the better it smells, the sweeter and yummier it is. The juice will show dark and maybe build up on the ball.

[@alex_marie1324]

I don’t know if it’s true for perfume, but vanilla scents turn soap brown when it goes through the chemical process, and the way that perfume is browned feels very similar. Might be something entirely different causing that brown-ness but I’d reckon it’s the vanilla

[@darlahays2471]

True. Yet some perfume juice is amber colored. I even have dark purple fragrances. Edit* Most Kayali vanilla is a amber, kayali vanilla 28, Invite Only and more.

[@katiehenry7]

I reckon so!

[@misseselise3864]

vanilla turns soap brown because vanilla extract is brown

[@Halalbeautie]

i own the vanilla. it turns this color over time as the vanilla oxidizes. doesnt affect the smell or longevity of it. also own the musk and hasnt really changed colors (had it over it year)

[@rebeccawoodard653]

@@misseselise3864 vanilla extract and vanilla fragrance oil are not the same thing. So that’s not really the reason it turns brown.

[@amyclare5377]

the brown is from the real vanilla in the perfume I msgd huda and asked when my second bottle of vanilla 28 was a completely different color then the 1st bottle. its normal and amazing imo :) hope you love it

[@bonniehowell9206]

Happy Holidays everyone! I just had a conversation that the only advent calendar you can trust are for chocolate and wine.

[@cherylbaker4290]

Xo marshmallow has one that 1000% is worth it lol but still fits into the same category as chocolate and wine basically.

And Plouise hers was amazinggg

There are WINE ones?! 😍😍😍 can anyone recommend a good one?

I bought a sheet mask one from revolution and in its simplicity (and low price) it is trustworthy too lol

"The experience of chewing 5 gum" is an Alexandria moment that I will cherish and live rent free in my head🤣❤️

there's no rush to unbox these calendars, I'm happy to watch these videos for as long as you have calendars to unbox! 💖 get well soon

[@CarrieTells]

My grandma had a ton of those shaped Avon bottles in her bedroom when I was younger. I remember one was a Scottie and another was shaped like a car, in some odd brown or orange glass. I absolutely loved playing with them.

[@eryuu4016]

I used to collect empty ones.

[@robinwhite4148]

You get sick a lot. I will still watch when you make videos. Advent calendars are my favorite. I will watch them all year. I don't have Christmas anymore so this is a bit of happy for me.

[@Emsgems613]

My husband tested + on the 23rd, our roommate on the 25th and myself and my best friend yesterday... It's been a fun Christmas at our house this year. Luckily my husband has already tested negative twice and only had it for 3 days! Just got antivirals today because I have a very compromised immune system. Hope you feel better soon and watching your videos for the last 24 hours while stuck in bed has been a wonderful addition to the dullness of the holidays this year! Last year today we were on our honeymoon in Universal Studios Orlando at the Wizarding World theme park! I'd rather be back there right now than stuck in bed with Covid!!! Hope everyone had a great Christmas and is staying safe out there! Love to all!

[@eryuu4016]

While I got the Covid shot for work, I work at a hospital, I also got a pneumonia shot because of my weak lungs.

You need to try the Hotel Chocolat advent calendar it's an amazing chocolate advent calendar and it is different every year and everything tastes amazing and there is value in them.

Jelly Belly has an advent calendar if you are into jellybeans. I imagine it's a lot cheaper than that candy calendar you already opened.

[@affanwi]

The way I yelled "oh noooo" when you opened day one...I could've swore it was a pallete then you started talking about how light it was 😭. Thanks for pushing through though and get well soon!

[@samanthacarter7817]

Vanilin might be the cause of the browning in your perfumes. If you use vanilla in things with scent the vanilin has a chemical reaction that causes browning. Soap makers have some things to counter react the browning but most of the time the vanilin wins.

[@ChandlerBinx]

Oh how I’ve missed these!

so, in the mid to late 1980s, my mom was obsessed with Avon's Odyssey perfume, bottles of their pink bubble bath (with the knobbly bottle), and Skin So Soft and her orders would always be bagged in waxy white paper bags. and, when you talk about 'the Avon scent', yup, that's what even those bags would smell like.

[@himboking]

i don’t know if this is what the eyeliner is named after, but there is that pigment color called vantablack which may be where the name comes from? the name vantablack is trademarked so i’m guessing thats why they called it very vanta. if that is where the name comes from, that’s very ironic since vantablack is super-black and reflects very little light

The vanillin, the primary component of the vanilla bean, in both perfumes is probably causing that brown staining. When I make soap, I have to use a vanillin stabilizer otherwise it turns my soap base brown. It can still brown over time even with a stabilizer.

[@heatherchesshire]

Vanta is referring to the color vantablack which is referred to as the blackest black.

[@Sunshinery]

Huda Beauty Legit Lashes is one of my everyday go to mascaras! I was so happy to see that in this advent calendar. I promise you will love it too. I use the curl & length side first and then I pop in that volume. I have naturally amazing eyelashes (thanks to my grandmother LOL) and this makes them POP and ppl have asked are you wearing false eyelashes....nope just Huda mascara LOL. You will enjoy this and its so worth the money. Side note I originally got this in the November 2021 Huda Ipsy Glam Bag X when they collaborated with her and since then I have seen it on Ipsy as an add on and even in the pop-up shop for around $12-$18 dollars, sooooo if you have Ipsy (which I know Alexandria does 😉💜more for everyone else to know) you can get it there if you're lucky. You could also go to it on Ipsy and if they dont have it they will send you to the website and sometimes offer you 10%-15% off the product since its been on Ipsy before. P.S. The bombshell Liquid Matte is a beautiful shade and a favorite of mine too! Damn do I need to get this calendar🤔🤔
