Visit helixsleep.com/Alexandria to get 20% off your Helix mattress, plus two free pillows. Offers subject to change. #helixsleep Hey guys! Today we are back at it with another advent calendar! I am going to sprinkle he last few in with other videos over the next week or two and then advent calendar season will be over😢 (Until this November at least lol). Let me know what you guys think of this one! Love ya💖

[@JenCat-nu1gn]

That looks very expensive for so little, I do not know this brand but love watching you unpack it though. I'd however love the cute ornament piece package it comes in. Hopefully you will feel yourself soon with your new medicine it sounds hard to cope with the things you normally love to do. Greetings from AU.

[@kelqueen9998]

Bobbi Brown is quite expensive; I think just with a quick look that it's worth the estimated value. It may not have been the most exciting, but everything seemed pretty useful for a change.

[@christinekeleher3578]

For sure all day.

[@janis2633]

On antidepressants. It may take a few tries of different ones to get to one that helps you feel more like you. It doesn't take weeks to see if it's right either. If you feel off or just plain different stop taking it & call your doctor to try something different. Good luck, I tried 5 different ones before I found one that works for me. Everyone is different so just keep trying till you get there. Usually a week is all you need to see if it's right or not.

[@annie-sh-fi7ox]

Kinda disappointed of the Bobbi Brown calendar. I love ya, and all your advent calendars. Keep um coming girl! 💖

[@terripoche5416]

You are never awkward to us! We love hanging with you and I think we'd all watch you unbox advent calendars ALL YEAR LONG 😊

[@User-cy9bk]

Yes. 🎉

[@gaillggl_collage6391]

Agreed!!!!!

[@sallyfields2385]

Absolutely!

[@Snakelady-]

Ditto! ❤️❤️❤️

[@Its_me_Debi]

I would ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@LBelle17]

Advent is my favorite 6 months of the year!

[@smlorrin]

Mine too! 😂

[@chelsey8737]

100% and if we keep saying it maybe we can get it to 12 months a year 😂

[@policekovaful]

😂same

[@wenditaylor9708]

Please stop beating yourself up! You are a delight! Really! You cheer me up so much. I love watching you. You may feel different but you still seem like the same girl I have come to know and enjoy!

[@teri2466]

Same! ❤

[@theresagilmore4840]

Agreed!!

[@chrissysdollies]

Alexandria, I've been following you for over 2 years now and I just realized why I enjoy your videos so much- you don't edit out every little mistake or oops moment, you come across as so real and genuine and kind, like the sort of person I would love to have a sleepover with and stay up talking about everything with! Thank you for the parasocial relationship and friendly comfort. Keep being you ❤

[@tammygarrett9261]

I pretend she's one of my granddaughters😁

[@purpleivy9174]

OMG, a month or two ago you said you were excited to open the red one with the drawers that still sits behind you. I’m dying for you to open it.

[@user-rs6ww6or8o]

you and me both, sister. hehe!

[@samavery7969]

And me!!! Maybe we’ll get there by next Christmas!! 😂

[@feesha724]

“sorry if i’ve been talking too fast and not saying good enough stuff” lol me all day everyday

[@MrsMcGwire]

I know, right!? Me, too!

[@StaciSchuck]

Same😂

[@Paperscrapper]

Same, but add in forgetting words (side effect of my medication).

[@jackih9682]

Alexandria getting buzzed on mascara fumes. 😂😂😂

[@jsheree6121]

I think I speak for most of us when I say we will happily watch advent calendars all year long.

[@shaunacorrigan9372]

They definitely get me with the "free gifts"! I bought some perfume from Ulta around Christmas and got a whole ass blanket, which I'll take over tiny pots of cream any day!😅

[@brendap1438]

I got the blanket too! It's just as soft and wonderful as the Unhide blankets that are crazy expensive!

[@deborahrood2753]

I got a robe!

[@grawrisher]

Have we finally reached the year where Alexandria takes us seriously when we say we will watch advent calendars all year? I’m pretty excited

[@emileyaston]

We have. Eternal advent calendars is all I ever wanted

[@mariaq81]

Bobbi Brown is a great brand. She’s all about natural beauty. The face primer base is great and very pricey. Use the brush for the highlighter and shimmer brick. It’s a full size and pricey too 🤗

[@jamiecotant6124]

I love advent calendars and the fact you can get them all year is amazing!

[@Maddym365]

Not me thinking “haven’t seen Alexandria in a few days” and there you are!

[@DeeKate]

ADVENT! ADVENT! ADVENT! PLEASE NEVER END ❤

[@Queenofcats36]

Alexandria, I've been watching you for over five years, and never once have I thought you talk too fast. You don't over edit your videos. Your personality shines through. I also have those thoughts that what I say isn't good enough. Just know that you are definitely well loved in this community.

[@paulahillier1390]

Just 2 weeks to Easter. 😄

[@Little.MissDiagnosed]

Lent calendars!!!!!

[@smlorrin]

@@Little.MissDiagnosed YES! 😂

[@prettynsleepy1073]

I love after advent calendar season. Thank you for continuing to do this.

[@lynettealexanderxoxo]

It really doesn't matter what your unboxing your so fun to watch. So you dont have to keep spending crazy $ on advent calendars we will be here for all of it. But if advent calendars are what makea you happy by all means lets keep going😂😂😂😂😂😂❤

[@andreaewert7204]

Yay! Clicked on video as soon as it popped up! Keep the Advent Calendars coming. I hope you adjust soon to your new medications. ❤

[@amandabray9498]

That shimmer brick thingy would make a great travel eyeshadow as long as it is eye safe

[@fudgeythewhale87]

I got lost in Macy's, NY. I had to ask security to put an announcement out so my friends would find me. That is all.

[@riveramnell143]

You’re doing great, sweetie 😂

[@merlinsclaw]

You know, if you pace this properly, it'll take you right into the advent calendar boxes for Christmas of 2024. 🤣🤣

[@deeprose4]

The reviews can’t be trusted, imo. I’ve noticed that on websites like Macy’s and Sephora the reviews are biased because they were given the item to give a good review

[@rachelpayne4026]

I thought your blankets were alive for a minute till I realised there was a puppy under them!! Tater blends so well 😂😂😂😂

[@jackiefraser-easton571]

It's great to see you! We've definitely missed your fun commentary while opening advent calendars, and any other box. I hope the transition to the new medication goes smoothly for you and you start feeling more like yourself soon. It will happen. It may take some time and adjustments but you'll get there.

[@maddy.doesart]

I know people say this all the time but I could genuinely watch these year round. You should do mystery boxes of makeup, if they exist. Maybe Ipsy has them, or eBay or something. Up to u but just an idea

[@ellewhomeows]

Just got my first Helix yesterday! That baby FLUNG open and whipped my favorite lamp into the wall 😂 Thankfully the lamp was okay, but I do need a new shade because the current one was destroyed. I did not realize it would come springing out like my fatigue from this time change 😂

[@darlenecarroll3876]

I would love to see your tiny perfume bottle collection

[@gabrielaranna5809]

Hey, Alexandria 😊 I've never commented before, but I watch your videos very often, and they made me want to test advent calendars just for the gigs. I live in Portugal and bought a Ritual 12 days of male self care for my husband as a birthday gift. For our pleasant surprise, he received a beautiful box with 12 full sized products! Totally recommend ❤

[@fionabrown301]

I love your advent calendar unboxings. It always brightens my day when I see you post a new one ☺️

[@laci-annmosher8780]

I love the ornament shape. You can definitely reuse that box for Christmas decor!!

[@jordynecastaneda8212]

I love the Bobbi Brown eyeshadow sticks! I got one years ago in an Ipsy in the shade Golden Pink and I used it everyday! The little guys last forever!

[@cassieroberts3625]

Girl please stop apologizing to us. We love you regardless if you are speedy or slow. I know I am here to watch you bc I love everything you talk, show or unbox! I hope your family is doing good. Hope you feel better soon. Been praying for you and yours. ❤

[@sarahferrier8187]

I love your videos. I'm a mom of 3 kids. My oldest is special needs, your video are my escape !

[@jenainwonderland]

You can definitely say we have an advent calendar problem because we are all still here, still watching loving advent calendar. If you go year round most of us would still be here loving it!

[@ashee0907]

Hey girl!!! I love your videos so much!! I’ve been rewatching all these advent calendar videos cause I love them, and I saw you just posted! Praying for you, your husband, and your doggies!❤❤

[@vickibennett8297]

Bobbi Brown is so ridiculously expensive! I would love to try her miracle balm…. It’s $38 ….too much for me! You my dear are a delight! Stop apologizing! We love you! ❤❤

[@theprofessional_dork]

Yeah the Bobbi Brown face bace is very popular! I used to love it.. Till I noticed it didn't really do anything 😭 I absolutely adore the smell because it's lemon grass! That was really the only reason I ever used it but.. When I think Bobbi Brown I think the face base though it is unreasonably expensive for the amount you get Goes for any of their products really, 'quality' over quantity

[@gigi2k326]

Lauren may beauty talks about Bobbi Brown often & really likes a lot of it! But i guess i agree its not the most exciting. It seems it might work for a lot of skin tones at least

[@BrianaCunningham]

We are all actively encouraging her advent problem.❤😂😊

[@kamanama3671]

hi I hope you and your puppies are doing way way better❤

[@leaanncollins4350]

Hi! Always happy to see you celebrating another day of advent calendar season! It never gets old because your opinions are honest and funny. Even if a calendar is boring, you getting salty about it isn’t.

[@margieryne6220]

Hi sweet girl, it’s great to see you & I sure hope you’re getting some answers to your problems! Sure hope Tater has been doing okay, I missed seeing him! No, I don’t think it was worth that much money, sorry. You take care of yourself & get yourself well! Be careful & stay safe! Sending prayers, love & hugs! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🐾🐾❤️

[@SarahLewis-zo2pw]

I hope you feel better soon my lovely. Your videos are always amazing so don't overthink it, it's not coming across awkward.. 💜

[@crystalbarfoot]

Hiii Alexandria 💖 Hope you're feeling better ❤

[@moniquelambertz2450]

So good to hear someone else who loves sleep as much as I do 😊

[@laurtheonly4980]

please don’t apologize to us, we adore you. Hoping the meds are helpful and you settle into them soon. Also, I started a new med a couple months back and it made me so sleepy that I was falling asleep so my dr told me to take it at night. Maybe you could ask about that, it could be a game changer. Love your videos, hope you’re well xx

[@loribreitbarth2215]

Don’t apologize for being you. I love watching you and I know how hard it can be to generate energy when you have none. We are here and enjoy getting to spend time with you!

[@milapartment]

that christmas tree is BEGGING for the sweet release of hibernation

[@boogiebear3095]

I feel ya about having little energy. I had to go to the clinic for my sinuses as I’m dizzy. I forgot to take my trash to the curb Tuesday night 😓 oops

[@kelseywillow8110]

Thanks for the videos! Don’t feel bad, your vids help with my anxiety just to chill. You are not alone. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@noobertuber1780]

Smokey eye mascara is literally the best if people tried it it’d definetly go viral

[@katiemctamany9458]

Hi I love your videos It would be so cute if you decorated your tree with a theme related to any upcoming holiday ❤

[@mariagaytan78]

I was introduced to your advent calendar videos during the pandemic lockdowns. U were and still r a joy to watch! ❤

[@jenn-k-h]

Oh man, I needed this today ❤ Thank you so much!

[@samanthahunter1759]

I love advent calendars I can literally watch these all year long

[@charrussell5774]

i like your suggestion to take the money we'd've spent on the advent calendar and just buy the products we'd like to try. mostlikely wed get more bang for our buck, full sized and in shades we'd use

[@creativeconfusion]

Yay! Highlight of my day when i see a new video to watch :) I love the advent videos :)

[@outoftheklosset]

Love your videos!!! I hope you're feeling better today.❤

[@tracyhernan8617]

I love the pink highlighter because it is subtle it's one of my favorites and the face base us nice also

[@annamosqueda3313]

I had never watched your videos until December 2023. I had no idea Advant Calendars were such a big thing. I have really enjoyed every single video you have posted since I started following you 😊 I honestly look forward to seeing 👀 all these Calendars and your opinions on all of the different products ❤ I'd be happy if all you did was open them and I look forward to seeing 👀 what else your channel has to offer me. Your expressions and content is very entertaining 👌 With all the craziness going on in this world you are truly a breath of fresh air ❤

[@Smileplyou]

That is my fav foundation brush!

[@mollyanonymous925]

Yay! More Advent calendars! I want to watch them year round!

[@SheriLynNut]

Alexandria, I’m sorry you’re struggling with the new medication. I know personally how hard it is. I know it’s rough, but hang in there sweetie. And if it you don’t begin to feel better after a few months, don’t hesitate to let your doctor know. Sometimes it’s a matter of fussing with the dosage, or even trying a different medication. My point is, hang tight for a little while, but not too long if it’s still feeling the way it does now. Thanks for thinking of us even though you’re not feeling 100% yourself - we love you no matter what!

[@ys1876]

That face base is amazing! Perfect moisturizing primer

[@popvitamin]

I love the advent calendars anytime.

[@eringwizon3939]

I love your videos!!! You rock! ❤

[@karenward267]

I’m so glad to see this content, as the last time you uploaded, both you and Tater were dealing with medical issues. You look and sound much better. Hope Tater is also feeling his old self. I enjoyed the Scam House update. The sellers and realtor all sound very shady, but I’m now invested in your house hunt and the Scam House. Please keep the Advent calendars coming. My secret wish is that we watch you unboxing calendars all year and it will soon be Christmas again. I hear your background track and am immediately in my happy Christmas place. I hope Jeremy had a great birthday; Ren is his usual happy self; and your parents had a wonderful trip to Paris.

[@shonadonaghey1977]

You are never awkward to me love your channel ❤❤❤❤

[@lauraladyll]

The shimmer bricks are highlighters and were a really popular item 10 years ago. That’s why Physician’s Formula and other brands made dupes. I still have a pink one which I mostly use for highlighter or as a subtle shimmery blush. Also, I wonder if the brush was intended for the shimmer brick and other highlighter. In my experience, Bobbi Brown’s brushes are denser than what we typically use today for powder products.

[@shellykozun3813]

I can’t tell you how much I needed this video tonight!! Thanks for a great video!

[@mariejones4208]

The two lip colors are gorgeous together!

[@deborahhofman7567]

Advent calendars are fun anytime of year!

[@louiseguglielmetti7477]

Thanks for being so funny!💜

[@kittyo9633]

Oooooh 🎉. YAY!!! More calendars

[@kaylamckeon4254]

Girl you go for it I am here for all your videos but I really truly honestly love love love the advent calendar ones. I love your videos so much your on the top of my favourite KZbinrs list.

[@nerissaavery7317]

I love your videos so much I love your normal!! No one is perfect 🤩 Keep it up your amazing 😊

[@AnoukiMorgenstern]

omg yes I needed this today!!

[@blugreen123]

Yay! You're back! I missed you! 😊

[@gigi2k326]

The vitamin enriched face space is really good.Definitely.Try it in the winter time or when your face is dry

[@mgparis]

Please never stop opening advent calendars! :)

[@lana3392]

We love your mind, Alexandria 🥰

[@carolynford2054]

I hope you’re feeling better with the headaches. You are always a joy to watch opening Advent calendars or subscriptions. I thought this particular one had a few nice items but was not worth the amount paid.

[@lesap8889]

I really liked all of the makeup products!

[@lauriedaniele5967]

Hi Alex, thank you for sharing the Bobby Brown calendar❤ I love watching your channel. You didn’t seem awkward to me at all.❤

[@violetnoire8253]

You are always a delight

[@Fuddruckers1985]

We are here for you (and advent calenders lol) no matter what! Take care of yourself and do what you can! We'll be here ready and waiting!

[@VondaInWonderland]

The extra free items helped with the value. Nice wooden brushes always get me ❤ 🕊️

[@joball-porter9481]

Awesome unboxing! It's always good to see your smiling face!!

[@azyraphae]

I love watching your videos! And you never come off as awkward. Keep the advent calendars coming! I love watching them so much! =)

[@StLsalsagirl]

I'm with you girl on the no energy. Love your honesty and the supportive community you have built!

[@jennifergardner9343]

I love advent and after advent season!!! ❤

[@lunabtxt]

I want to reassure you that you're doing fine! and there's not any change that I can see. I hope you start feeling better soon and don't have to worry about this~

[@minagica]

I have a huge collection of lipsticks, especially for someone that doesn't make a living off of makeup, but practically all I ever actually wear is tinted lip balm 😂 I hear you, girl!

[@rosemarybelore6622]

You don’t seem awkward to me but I can understand if you feel that way. Getting used to new medication can be hard. I know when I started on my anti-anxiety medication it was weird for awhile. I went through several different ones before I settled on the one I’m on now, Cymbalta. It acts as a nerve pain medication as well. I have fibromyalgia and chronic nerve pain in my leg as well. As you may have read by now in your comments there are a lot of us in here that can relate to you and so there’s no judgement at all. You are safe with us my dear. We love you and your little family and have only your best interests at heart. We love the advent calendars too so keep them coming lol ❤

[@tamdickerson1613]

Hope you soon find relief. Your doing great hang in there! Lol i keep being drawn to your tree, i think it may be telling you xmas is over. Advents from you are so fun any time of year! Many Blessings Alexandria!

[@cherylfelton4030]

Team Advent Calendar all year long!

[@vonkatheviking]

I love every video and am still excited to see your advent adventures even in March, you are still one of the best, it feels like we're chatting with a friend, love your responses and honesty and all for videos, and sending healing and light your way, I understand what you are going through with the new meds and it's a roller-coaster until you find your perfect fit for migraine meds, I get Botox injections and nerve block injections for chronic migraines and I have tried all meds and it was and still is a battle of the migraines and epilepsy so I send you hugs and know your doing better than I ever could have and don't be so hard on yourself. We're your friends and we understand it's not easy making videoe, I know because I failed bad at trying to make videos, you are truly appreciated and also you help others like me and us with explaining what you going through and we are here for you. We haven't been around this long to leave now, I'm a lifer with ya lady so keep being yourself and genuine and kind as always, love and light your way from Canada ✌️ 💛 🇨🇦

[@brb0529]

Thank you for the video 😊
