Rituals Advent Calendar for sure!

[@patricia7936]

Hello from Switzerland 🇨🇭 ♥︎♡♥︎♡♥︎♡♥︎♡♥︎♡♥︎♡♥︎♡♥︎

[@pattizayac9351]

Not surprised that the Rituals calendar is number one. After watching your unboxing for the Rituals calendar, I immediately ordered it and gifted it to a friend and she loved it. Merry Christmas 🎅 to you and your beautiful family

[@laurielove9844]

After watching your vlog on the Rituals advent calendar, I ordered three of this one for my daughters and each one of them loved this calendar. I will most likely get this advent calendar for my daughters every year. I am thankful that you did a vlog on this particular advent calendar.

[@kaylheecarroll3186]

The Dior and YSL advent calendars are my favorites

[@vanessawearslilly3964]

What a great way to wrap up Vlogmess! The Dior is so pretty, but the Rituals calendar really captured the season! We all knew Chanel was going to be at the bottom😂 I saw that Kristina Braly actually sent hers back to Chanel for a refund!

[@marypliska4070]

Agree with you on always wanting more clean, refreshing sense… not a you problem!

[@marensmith1053]

im a rituals employee in norway, and it makes me so happy that the calander is your number one

[@gillovnytexas1973]

that Chanel calendar.. OMG!! I can’t.. so mad at this expensive brand selling us trash for 800 + dlls 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@neocollier1632]

Thank goodness for you because I was planning on buying the Chanel calendar until I saw your video! Instead I opted for both of the Dior calendars (LOVE), the L'Occitane calendar, the YSL calendar and the Diptyque. The YSL is really beautiful but I didn't love that it was so beauty centric. I wish they would've included some other fun special holiday themed surprises. In all I loved the Dior and Diptyque the most this year. Thanks for the suggestions!!! XO

[@dixiedawn]

I totally bought the Rituals advent calendar, it seemed to get a resounding thumbs up from everyone who reviewed it. 😁

[@tsukihime630]

i love the rituals one! As soon as I watched your video I ordered it!

[@StrictlyMystic]

The Rituals calendar is beautiful, but the one that turned out to be one of my favorites is Sabon. It is a 31 day calendar and I love the Art Deco design. Although not usually a fan of strong scents I've already ordered several products from their line.

[@lorentamayo2738]

I always watch you .but im.not always leave comment .today i would like love to congrats you. sis your 100k are coming soon .im so happy for you.

[@AHeatedMess]

Aw thank you so much Loren 🥰🥰🥰

[@stephanievacek7469]

Great advent calendar review! I ordered an advent calendar from Artful Tea in Santa Fe, NM in November 2021. There were so many fun teas to try! I think I will order the David's tea next year!

[@lachlangenat9067]

I’m gonna say it Chanel is definitely gonna be one of the worst, as well as the Balmain hair one. 💁‍♂️😂😅

[@tabbynevin9355]

I loveeee jo Malone it’s pricey but I’m obsessed with that brand 😍😍

[@Jai-ip1oy]

I also got the Rituals advent calendar for myself and my daughter based on your recommendations. She loves it and has several favorites.

[@NormaLilia24]

I was looking forward to this video. Happy Holidays everyone!!

[@umaiyah-jehansiddique3009]

yes I love rituals

[@Truth1561]

I ordered the rituals calendar after seeing your review, but had a disaster. Delivery was protracted ( out for delivery then cancelled three times) then when it finally arrived the box was smashed in and wet. The houses were mangled and soaked, there was no light set, and the diffuser and room spray were both empty- they had leaked all over the houses😩 Rituals costumer service was terrible- initially said keep what you can salvage and we will give you a full refund, then phoned back minutes later and said no sorry, you have to return it. To cut a very long story short, after resorting to Twitter and CEO email they have let me keep the bits that are ok, have promised me a refund and given me a £15 voucher ( although the email said £20 🙄) All in all a disappointing experience to say the least!

[@Justme-623]

Yeah!! I've been waiting for this vid. I so agree. I made notes for next year as well. I loved the RITUALS, Dior small advent, Loccitane and David's tea! I had so much fun! Hope you are feeling better.

[@leehannah342]

Thank you. I enjoyed all of your advent calendar video. Bought your number pick RITUALS. Love it.

[@petrina7883]

So great full to you and other KZbinrs who unboxed the Chanel advent and saved me from making mistake of ordering one online. I was given the Dior calendar and I love it.

[@1akinor]

Love that you explained the meaning of E.L.F. (which I didn't know) & explanation about value of their advent calendars. Well done! You are first to better explain ways of beauty brands in a pleasant manner. OR at least the beauty vlogs I watch. Merry Xmas!

[@_tarafying_]

After watching your David’s Tea video, I actually sent my brother the link so he could get it for me as my Christmas present from him! I love it!!!

[@audrawinters4013]

First timer here! Liked your other advent videos and really surprised by what they offered!! Kind of insulting! My first ever advent calendar was Rituals….it’s beautiful! It is pretty, lights up, goes with Christmas and price was not bad for all the wonderful treats inside. I’ll be getting it again. 🙂

[@wendyyan7120]

Lol, I have never bought advent calendars before but this year I bought 4 of them and it is no doubt because of these videos. It’s been fun exploring each section and I’m so happy I got these. Thank you!

[@Jess-P]

I got the Dior and Rituals advent calendars this year and love both of them! Thank you for reviewing them!

[@barbwinkler2291]

Love watching you unbox the calendars. Also, I appreciated your ranking of the calendars. It will be helpful in deciding which calendars to buy next year!🎄

[@deirtreelliott4963]

Cindy I so enjoyed ALL of your advent calendar unboxing!

[@theluxbox6675]

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

[@melissan9199]

I bought the rituals one because of your vlogs. Just opened the 24th today. I loved them all…

[@loralee3232]

I really enjoyed all of the different advent calendars you picked. I’m actually ordering the Voluspa, Elf and Rituals. Yes, it’s a tad late but I thought they were really cute. Some are even on sale. I look forward to see what you select for next years advent calendars. 😊❤️

[@Varkalis1]

Rituals for sure! Merry Christmas.

[@tutu050]

Rituals is the best! I got their advent calendar in the past, which was really wonderful. But they went above and beyond this year! I enjoyed your fun unboxing and candid reviews!

[@scottiliciousmcfabulous]

I got one of the L’Occitane advent calendars because of your video 🥰 Its such a nice brand to use, I got TONS of hand creams laying around the house and my bathroom is generally stocked with all sorts of goodies 🙈

[@charondamotley3179]

I agree Rituals was the best this year all around tfs Merry Christmas to your family

[@TeresaofOrange]

I bought that Rituals calendar because of your video. It was so good. I discovered so many things I want now. My favorite (the Serendipity foam wash) is not available in the country, so that was a bummer) but it is the best advent calendar. I hated putting it together, though. My village wasn't as nice looking as yours because of that.

[@wendymisirly5826]

I bought your number one for my daughter she loved it.

[@itsourlocallife]

Great review! Sugarfina was what I picked for this year. Great way to taste test flavors. Have a happiest & merriest holidays! 🎊

[@Szil108]

Would have loved to order the Rituals advent calendar but here in Europe there were soo many complaints of double payments, missed/delayed packages and not very good customer service… Watched so many reviews of people who got it as a present from the company and they just loved it so much, but it seemed that they had a real problem with their ordering system 😏

[@lj6110]

Happy Holidays !!!

[@KasSommers]

I got the Rituals calendar on your recommendation, for my daughter in UK. It's white not red, and really pretty.

[@lovingchannelmusicproducti8493]

Merry Christmas.. Beautiful Vlogmas.. Happy Holidays😇🌲☃️🎅❄

[@donnalynn11]

Loved all of these videos! Merry Christmas 🎄 to you and your family.

[@umaiyah-jehansiddique3009]

i really love your vid keep going

[@vanessalambert4286]

Was there any that you didn’t get that you wished you would’ve got? Love the video, love Dior

[@jozel88]

Happy Holidays! I love the Rituals advent calendar. ♥︎

[@ritzkissesim6659]

Maligayang Pasko Cindy!💝

[@yasmin_dom]

The worst was definitely Chanel #SorryNotSorry and the best for me was Rituals. It was incredibly detailed. I did love the YSL too 🤗 Merry Christmas Cindy 🎅🏽 🎁 🎄

[@selenageary9029]

The thumbnail is so cute!

[@richiethev4623]

I wish you had bought and reviewed the Jimmy Choo advent calendar because that one is stellar💝😍🤗 -Mercy(sorry for the name confusion I am on my dad's phone at the moment)

[@robbbranche]

I understand your reasoning concerning the Net-A-Porter experience, but the Chanel remains the worst I've ever seen. The Chanel edit group new that they were selling their clients a very expensive total fail, and still did it. The biggest surprise is the Sabon I gifted my wife, a 31 day priced at $99, lots of interesting things to test, a little repetitive maybe..., and remaining as the most intriguing is the YesStyle, packaging was a little "blaah" this year, but, full size K-Beauty always impresses, and who can say "No" to some good ol' Snail Juice cream 🤣🤣!! Your efforts are appreciated Ms., Happy Holidays!

[@GaryGarlic]

The Dior calendar sold out in November last year and this year's is still available. Maybe the price increase and foundation turned a lot of people off? It's beautiful though :)

[@katemiller7874]

Why would foundation hold anyone back. I used it. If it was the wrong shade I would gift to a friend.

[@Bronaghmariaquinn]

I was really shocked at how many high end ones were still available right up to mid December. Years ago the liberty one sold out instantly. This year I was still getting emails about it more than a month after it's launch.

[@hopeandpray1]

Lush is known for it’s strong scents and those scents are considered Christmassy so I imagine the average

[@gemelizabeth4978]

I would definitely put the L'Occitane one as my favourite, but I am biased as I'm allergic to fragrances and lotions etc and yet I am OK with their Shea Butter Range, so it is literally all I use. I would buy one of their calendars every year, because as you said it would top me up, but unfortunately their calendars are understandably mixed, so isn't worth me buying it and having allergic reactions to the non-shea butter ones through their packaging!. Luckily I have been in touch with Santa and I have a feeling I will be topped up nicely for the year tomorrow! Fingers crossed, also am I going mad, there was an Armani one you did a video on wasn't there? Where would you rank that? Merry Christmas.

[@Zelduh.]

I hope you got the advent calendars for free. Designers you mentioned should pay you or at least reimburse lol

[@vivienkoles1880]

The rituals calendar is so pretty, unfortunately in my area it is out of stock now.

[@poespas68]

We all know wich one is the worst😅

[@erikabarragan2950]

Hi, how do you know when they are available to buy?

[@erikabarragan2950]

I miss the mini dior advent calendar, I wil be nice to know when they become available, i don't have Instagram so i miss all the good deals! Thanks😘😘

[@johnboy32064]

The Chanel Advent Calendar may have ranked worst but don’t you think the packaging itself is pretty great? The big flacon box is really cool and the Mondrian-like geometric plan of the boxes inside is so nice. I get some of the contents were kind of disappointing but were you really expecting an intrinsic value knowing you were spending $825 plus tax in the first place? I mean, come on.

[@AHeatedMess]

I think the packaging is great and the value is terrible 🤗

[@fernandagoncalvesoliveirab2083]

Channel was saved by Balmain!

[@yanabugby6486]

Can I have the channel advent case? It is so pretty and you don’t have to give me the products that came with it. I am happy to pay for it.

[@pandajune1991]

I'm starting to think someone at Chanel decided they didn't want to do their job, look at the size of the boxes compared to the products received.

[@Zelduh.]

I was relieved when you did not pressure your kids to be nurses like what most pinoy moms do. You recommended engineering. Hahaha lol (But my pinoy mom did not pressure me on a certain profession, not even nursing)

[@cristinamihaela992]

🥰🥰🥰

[@leonnahofer9138]

Chanel’s was the worst advent calendar that has ever been made in the history of advent calendars! On that note - Merry Christmas 🎄

[@saraha319]

Should’ve returned the Chanel calendar too Like even from a collector’s point of view it was just a bunch of junk

[@annapopovic]

Chanel is the worst by far. (Balmain was anyway previous year calendar).

[@anamariapatrulescu3137]

I feel like you don't appreciate lush very much but it's okay
