STRUGGLING THROUGH ALL THESE BOXES! | Random Round-Up Unboxing!

[@Alexandria-Ryan]

Thank you Helix for sponsoring! Visit helixsleep.com/alexandria to get 20% off your Helix mattress, plus two free pillows! Hey guys! So this video was a STRUGGLE! Im really sorry if that comes across in the video too much. I think I was becoming sick throughout the video so my energy gets worse and worse as it goes. I also accidentally uploaded the WRONG VERSION of this video, so the editing might not be the most smooth and the music is kinda strange😭 But thank you guys so much for watching! It means the world to me! Love ya💖

[@shellnet411]

You can do moon water in that little vile, because each phase of the moon does something different

[@shelbycat8234]

Please be careful with the powdered Juniper berries as many varieties of Juniper are toxic. I almost wonder if sniffing it is what made you feel nauseous.

[@shelbycat8234]

And also that shiny box, is that Winky Lux? Wouldn't mind if you picked that up as a monthly subscription. Loved the products and how colourful everything was. And I feel like they put some thought into the products, because the two eyeliners MATCHED the two Butterfly pallettes! I would love to see you do an eye look for each one. Or using both colors in one look. ☺️

[@Mizz.Person]

I have to say that I miss your makeup videos and would love to see a few more with your unboxed products? Pretty please? 😊❤

[@FrizzyFranny82]

​@sherimorgan7107 I just watched that Miss Boux (her actual name is Karen Faulkner and she's from the UK) video and I was amazed at all the Advent Calendars she talked about.

[@ShellyS2060]

Girl we come here for the rambling and the doggies! Oh, yeah and to see if Jimmy is mowing. Never change chick, you ROCK!

[@sillypiratehooker]

JIMMY!!!

[@TashaelisaLauth]

This is 100% correct. Love it! 😊

[@heatherrembe2854]

Does Jimmy know how famous he and his lawn care is 😂😂😂

Yay, I’m so happy you got the PR box. Thank you for unboxing and showing my collection xoxo

[@dawnmarie1912]

you are BOTH incredible! ❤

[@jesswolz5953]

When you said "cleansifying" I didn't even question it. My brain just accepted it as fact like, "Yup, cleansifying, that's a thing". 😂❤

[@DaSooks]

If it's not a thing, it should be!

I am English And way up on my grammar.....But I didn't even question that!! 😂😂😂 ....xx

[@PaganPunk]

​@@DaSooksTotally agree with you! 👍

[@KatbirdFirehawk]

Speaking for the Norwegian hand cream, in the seventies, those of us who sculpted in clay and made our own pottery, this was our holy grail for keeping our hand presentable. We could only order it through the drug store pharmacist and we cherished it like it was made of platinum. Best product ever…

[@TeresaSawyers]

Bless ur little cotton pickin self Alex for knowing about sundowners syndrome. I'm a 61 yr old woman taking care of my gorgeously beautiful mama who suffers fr dementia and a whole host of other physical problems and I appreciate that u know what that is. Ty

[@Mizz.Person]

I agree. It's easy to feel isolated sometimes and nice to know you're not alone..:) Sending hugs!

[@amysumek3132]

The chances of the look fantastic bag coming in a box that was so destroyed it disintegrated upon delivery is very high.

[@ashleyrawlins9365]

I think that lip color looked fantastic on you! I didn't see any ashiness at all.

[@jillroberts7154]

Girl.....stop apologizing! Your videos are always 10/10!! Always just what I need -- never uninteresting, never too chaotic. You are real, you are authentic, you are RELATABLE!! I have yet to watch one of your videos and not enjoy it!! If I could only watch content from 1 person it would be you (and I mean that in a not creepy or weird way). Thank you for being you!! ❤

[@momzillainnova]

The messyness of this video has caused me to internally announce that this is my favorite video youve ever made...AND it includes a witchy box!! I think were best friends now!

[@SheriLynNut]

The Neutrogena hand cream is LITERALLY the best hand and foot cream on the planet!

[@jengarrido2293]

I never thought of using it as a foot cream but that's a great idea I want to give that a try!

[@Sorchia56]

Completely agree!!! Especially in winter, cold weather season. My hands and feet LOVE getting their Neutrogena Norwegian rub down.

[@CherryCheetah]

I tried it once and had an allergic reaction from it. Never touched it since. It was the hand creme btw.

[@SheriLynNut]

@@CherryCheetah dang- sorry, did you try the unscented version?

[@SheriLynNut]

@@jengarrido2293 it’s soooo healing! My heels crack every winter and if I use this product even 3 days a week, it keeps them soft and they don’t crack! I recently discovered it on Amazon in packs of 3 I think? For about $10! Quite a deal!

[@AnnemarieFL]

Please don’t worry about how much you think these videos might be a mess, we all are here because we love and support you!! Be yourself, own the hectic days, and never stop yelling at Jimmy or reacting honestly to whatever you’re pulling out of a box!!

[@silylily1212]

Agreed

[@karenfellenz1115]

"Eyeball hair pairs" is officially the best thing I have heard all month!

[@letdanielletellyou]

I wouldn’t change you and your personality for another because you just make me smile laugh and I find comfort in your videos like you a good friend.

[@alicerichardson7615]

That Witchbox looked soooo good & wow to the new Blink Box. That was actually pretty cool!

[@texastornado91]

Witch box! Witch box! Witch box! I’m excited

[@minagica]

Girl that Neutrogena hand cream is fantastic!

[@marieburdin6776]

Came to say this.

[@pattikelley5157]

I'm gonna have to get me some to try... Many ppl on this thread have said how great it is...

[@Teeeyt]

Especially in winter!

[@JosieGrossie73]

​@@pattikelley5157it is good and I have VERY dry sensitive skin it feels so good

[@lethfuil]

​@@pattikelley5157 I use the unscented quick dry one for years now and it's SO fantastic. Not sticky, just smooth, silky hands immediately (and lasting), even in winter. And although the tube is pretty small it lasts quite a while, since you need only a little bit.

[@SieraLynJM]

The palette name immediately made me think of sundown towns (which are sometimes called sundowner towns) 👀

[@HomeAtOahu]

👀 same... 😬

[@jasmirris]

This is all I could think of. 😮

[@lazydaisy7507]

I'm thinking of drinks at sundown. After a beach day, you get cleaned up and dressed and meet up for a sundowner before dinner.

[@shellymarie97]

Oop. Sometimes we should just Google words before we spend $$$$ on production of stuff. This is so concerning 😬

[@amymckay23]

@@shellymarie97I disagree. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the name. ‘Sundowning syndrome’ is the name. ‘Sundowners’ is not even a real word and has nothing to do with this syndrome.

[@danmar1976]

Screw it! Cleansifying is now a word. To be used in all skin care unboxing. 😊😉

[@Nikibaby74]

This is what I was going to say! Add it to the dictionary stat! 😂

[@Britishvisitor]

Was hoping for an impromptu Japanese lesson for a second there! 😂 Love the witch box 🦇

[@toriboone1828]

When you said Norwegia all I could think of was Jennifer Coolidge on Cinderella Story saying they pay a fortune to fly the salmon for Norwegia 🤣

[@TwiggyHetfield27]

Eyeball hair pairs... definitely using that to refer to eyelashes in the future 😆 Also, the witch box is SUUPER cute!

[@owenandemmahead7995]

They called them sundowners in Australia, its a term used for the drink you have whilst watching the sunset

[@TCSOKO]

Same in South Africa

[@Abigail_Wyatt]

Yeah but when you’ve loved someone with Dementia your not gonna care about the real reason for the name. Your gonna care about the horrible feelings and memories it just thrust you into.

[@DhonaSkye]

It's a term for that here in America as well I think sometimes as a culture we don't remember that things in one language can mean something different than other and realizes that truth

[@nicolecavender5831]

Same in Kenya

[@bencooper4058]

As an Aussie, I’ve never heard that term used here for anything other than the medical condition 🤔

[@lvndrnymph]

🩵💜Love love LOVE the fact that the liners Blink Wink included MATCH the palettes!! Gold liner for the sunset palette And purple and blue for the butterfly ones!! SO CUTE💜🩵

[@nessa_vg]

23:41 Its also super cool that the eyeliners match the butterfly eyeshadow pallets

[@preppyprincess15]

I love random round ups because the idea of making those piles smaller is so satisfying lol

[@charmaineallen583]

"Sundowners" is also the term used by boat folk (Sailboat travellers especially) for cocktails that one drinks at sundown. It is often a social activity that one invites friends over for.

[@melaniesharp6878]

It's also a term in the southern states for towns where people of colour are advised not to linger after the sun goes down. Sadly yes, there are still places like that. Perhaps people who name palettes would benefit from a crash course in using the googles?!!!

[@sarah.5524]

Also a name for Alzheimer's/dementia patients who start declining at sunset​@@melaniesharp6878

[@ABCEggplant]

That Christophe Robyn scalp scrub is so nice! I got a huge one in a box and it will last me years. The salt in it is chonky but it makes the best scalp cleanser and you need so little.

[@ys1876]

I love it too! She definitely needs to try it.

[@missvicious92]

You missed the opportunity to quote Jennifer Coolidge "Norwegia" line from one of the Cinderlla stories!

[@eckabey3971]

I don't even get subscription boxes but I love these videos. But the aesthetics of that witch box have me seriously considering it.

[@tammygarrett9261]

You need a seam ripper. Opens up everything. I use it on everything. Great on envelopes and unwrapping eye pencils.

[@Leslie-wb8cb]

Thanks for the tip! I'm going to do that!

[@fishandfloral]

Love this idea!

[@jacquelineturbitt5509]

I also use my seam ripper for everything...I am afraid we may have to get Alexandria a HUGE box of them so she has a new one for each video or box she opens...

[@DinkyInky2]

Also good for opening those pesky foil blister packs of chewable tylenol, because if you peel yhethe paper and then push the tablet through, you get pixie stix that taste like medicine.😸😹🎻

[@PurrfectlyMediocre]

I swear I use my seam ripper more for non-sewing tasks than for how it's intended.

[@donnij6341]

Yeahhhh when I hear sundowner I think of sundowner towns....which are differently terrible and also not something you would want to associate your makeup palette with

[@Lani_Bonnie91]

I just ordered the witch box and i couldn't be more excited. I've been wanting to get myself a subscription as my kids each get one as a reward every month. I am a pagan and excited to see all the goodies every month. Love your videos and so glad I watch and am subscribed and was able to see both your videos with them, they seem consistent, so im excited to get it as well.

[@southern91680]

Random Round up are my favorite videos

[@jenniferredd1430]

Oh my goodness, the way you were trying to find a good way to explain why that pallet name wasn't good, going "I see what they were going for....." I was thinking, what did they do, call it sundowner? and I legit laughed out loud when it was. They really need another person on their naming dept (or just google the names first). I took care of my grandma during Covid and when she moved into a board and care home one of her housemates had sundowners and would try to escape at night to "go home" and would call everyone mama. Grandma had to lock her inside door to keep her from trying to escape through her room. Sweetest lady and had no idea what happened at night.

[@Leslie-wb8cb]

It's as if you read my train of thoughts exactly!

[@BlackWidow00741]

Your Grandmother is the real hero. That is such a sincerely nice thing to do with someone suffering......❤❤

[@amymckay23]

All I want to know is whether Jimmy is outside and that Tator is being a strong doggo. I enjoy your unboxing as YT directed to me when you were unboxing Advent calendars. I love all your content, and send good thoughts that when you find your next home, you’ll know and everything will fall into place.

[@PurpleWillowArts]

I love the multiple box videos! Oh and yes Cobra Kai is a show. It’s a follow up to the Karate Kid movies. It’s a REALLY good show!

[@hayleymariemills]

The eyeliners in the BlinkWink box match the butterfly pallets perfectly!

[@hayleybarnett5263]

[@jenn-k-h]

"Eyeball hair pairs" 😂🤣 I just... that's amazing 😂👏🙌 Also, the note from Witch Box was SO sweet! ❤

[@TheJellyfishlion]

I LOVE Kara Beauty.. They are super pigmented and the glitters don’t fall out all over, nor does it get itchy like some. It also lasts forever if you’re bad like me and don’t take it off!

[@blueeyedscorpio7]

Their website sucks tho!

[@allisonb8912]

That neutrogena hand cream is amazing. I have dermatillomania and pick at any dry skin on my fingers, and when I use this cream, I literally have no dry skin to pick. And you really don't have to use much! It comes out like a gel but when you start rubbing it, it turns into a cream.

[@thraelen]

I love the witch box! It seems like a great option for people who are just starting to learn more about it.

[@laura6796]

The witch box is really pretty! Yes, Sundowners refers to an Alzheimer's patient. They can get very upset and uneasy when the sun goes down. It's best to have them safe and sound in their own familiar setting at this time.

[@kMac862]

Zero ashiness! Looks beautiful on you!!

[@hollypierce3076]

I love a good Chaotic Alexandria video!!❤❤

I appreciate your honesty and in that honesty is where the calm focus starts for me… I’m just saying that I’ve heard your voice for so long in my life and I need calm, your content is where I gravitate toward without purposefully doing so… thanks. For being that tiny beacon of safe harbor in the vast ocean that is the Internet!

[@terryleslied]

I'd choose cleansifying over moisturing any day! And, that lip color was very pretty on you, not ashy at all. Very glad Tater was alright, too! Take care of yourself. You're worth the wait ❤

[@minagica]

That iridescent box is stunning!!! 😍😍😍

[@ravenofroses]

my mother swears by the norwegian formula neutrogena hand cream. it's really good for when your hands are so dry they crack and get bloody. but it's definitely not meant for ordinary everyday use.

[@cassandraboyer7068]

I really liked the purple and blue butterfly 🦋 palette. The 🌙 journal is very cool. Thanks for the video. 🎉

[@rogenamarieanderson4522]

Wow!! 15:11 that bag is awesome!! I loved the karate kid movies growing up!! ❤

[@susanhodgson7218]

Sundowners are a name for evening drinks as you watch the sunset

[@bge3328]

Yes, this is what it means to me as well, drinks at six/seven as the sun sets. I've never heard any other meaning, especially not related to dementia, so I wondering it is country specific.

[@ashleymeadows3410]

I have only heard it as a medical slang term regarding dementia patients, like Alexandria.

[@Kayla_P99]

It's related to a phenomenon where the dementia gets worse around sundown I thought

[@jicolourist]

Sundowners is definitely a dementia condition and only time I have heard of it.

[@mirandacoulter888]

@@bge3328Dementia and Alzheimer’s groups in the US, UK, and Canada all mention it as a common issue on their websites (Australia may, too, I didn’t check for sure). So it may be more that we don’t call an evening drink that here in the US (at least, not that I’m aware of) so there’s no competing definition to confuse it with like there is in other countries.

[@amikireicraftstore]

I love the witch box ♡ I'm binging your videos so I may appear in your comments here or 3 years back xD But... I was HYPERFIXATED because you didn't notice that the pretty box, the one with the mirror, EVERUTHING MATCHED!! The shock shadows where in agua and pink, then the eyelighners, aqua and purple AND THEN THE AQUA AND PURPLE PALETTE. I love that attention to detail, I'm ready to get some aqua thingies xD

[@andreavyskocil3880]

I love a good random roundup!

[@thxwanderer]

I can attest to Kara having some really great quality palettes! The only thing I don't like about them is when they have glitters, but the shimmers are nice and quite smooth.

[@anniemiles7955]

Does not look ashy. Love your videos!

[@Zaguzah]

"Sundowner" is British slang for drinking booze at dusk. 😊

[@omegasobsessions]

Came to say this lol

[@marhiapeterson1718]

This makes me feel so much better. As a former CNA who worked in memory care units and a psychiatric ward, I also thought negatively about the name.

[@VegasPoptarts]

@@marhiapeterson1718I thought the same thing! I work in medical and was like “oh no.. that’s not a great name.”

[@justkibby5959]

I love the butterfly palette duo so pretty

[@thatsandichic]

Why are chaotic random roundup videos my new favourites? Lol ❤

[@erinsheline8398]

I completely agree with you about the "Sundowners" palette. I deal with that with my Daddy and it's def no fun and the last thing I'd name a lovely eye shadow palette. Also, since witchy stuff is fun and has nothing to do with the devil/satan and everything to do with the earth, I loved the witchy box as well. There's some nutty people in this world lol (and in these comments 😅) and they need to lighten up.

[@lindasadler6338]

That Hot Mess Mama lip gloss looks so pretty on you!

[@NorseButterfly]

The Neutrogena hand cream used to be called The Fisherman's balm (or something similar). Use only a pea size amount, or you'll never get it all worked in! It's awesome for dry, winter hands.

[@nickiethesaint316]

Had an idea: live-stream box opening marathon with different “guest stars” for the holidays

[@Nikibaby74]

Yeah like Hot Mess Momma!

[@cadavher]

That holographic box I'd kill for lol! It has everything in it I would actually use, and that's rare for a sub box! I love that they put bold colors in there.

[@brittanykeil3165]

I work in dermatology and we ALWAYS recommend the Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream to our patients for use on hands AND lips! It actually moisturizes and does not dry lips out more like lip balm. It is the best! Super hard to find in stores though, I usually buy on Amazon!

[@kterhune100]

JIMMY'S BACK! Also I love the round up gamble, it's my most favorite video... well that and your advent calendars! :)

[@aolsweetsew]

I love your random roundups! Thank you for pushing through. You were great as usual. Prayers for peace and calm.

[@Cherrys_bracelets]

I love the eye make you box. They all go together. You can mix and match all the colours to make a really pretty mermaid look :)

[@coffeegirl18]

Always love seeing a Random RoundUp. That BlinkWink Box sounds fun; I like the idea of the no false lashes one....I'm too chicken to even try them because of my eye allergies. Also if things are appearing different to you than in the camera your lighting tone could be off. If you have adjustable lights I suggest trying out different lighting tones. I learnt that the hard way when I filmed a video for a project for Film Studies and the lighting was the correct brightness but the wrong tone.

[@andreaewert7204]

Woot! Random round-up! Anyone else get an instant smile 😃 hearing the music??!!! I really needed this today been very stressed since over the weekend! Thanks Alexandra for making me smile today😊❤

Have you ever done the Margot Elena subscription box? They can be hard to get but AMAZING. It's perfume, soaps, scrubs, candles, and such from her various brands.

[@My_Mothers_Cupboard]

Neurogena products are amazing for people with extreme dryness on the hands. My bestie is a florist and she has to use her hand cream as a barrier from sores and cheapness. All of their products have little or no smell. You can use the cream on your heels as well. Popular range in the UK, and on the slightly expensive side.

When you said Sundowners, my first thought was the sundown towns during Jim Crow that forced anyone white to get out of town as night fell. I understand it actually still goes on.

[@IllyDragonfly]

[@yvonnerodriguez6941]

I was very impressed with how you handled the palette name. I never heard of sundowning before. Hopefully this video will educate the palette creator as it did me.
