THIS HAS TRULY PERMANENTLY TURNED ME OFF OF EVER BUYING ANYTHING CHARLOTTE TILBURY

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

I love a lot of her stuff but not a great value here at all

[@cj7767]

2 years ago I purchased 2 mystery Boxes from the website and it was all Full Sizes. This is Pure greed!

[@makeupbyhaydee2472]

lol 😂is this box a joke 😅thank you Heather for saving us money 💰

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Right!!! I'm happy I help save you some $$$

[@makeupbyhaydee2472]

@@HeatherAustinmakeup yesss I got so annoyed too 🤨Ugg at least the box is cute

[@smackma3000]

It saddens how many brands put out such lack luster advent calendars. Hopefully they'll get the memo and do better eventually

[@adl2624]

I have seen this box unboxed for the last three years and it has always been the same. It sucks nobody wants travel size items and if you do good on you but realistically we all want full-size products especially for that price.

[@angelamiller7164]

Thanks for taking one for the team!!! I love your videos!

[@cj7767]

What a Money Grab and totally Greedy! I would dispute the Charge with my credit Card Company before I let some GREEDY Company scam me like this.

[@saltyseafoam]

Never seen you this steamed lol, cant blame you tho! I love mystery box type stuff and this would have legit made me cry with disappointment, good lookin out ❤ great video, love your eyeshadow!

[@christinesmith3911]

And this is why I LOVE your videos !!! Honestly reviewing everything…

[@lanamacdougall4570]

i find that her mystery boxes have a bit of a better deal then the calander. IMO. Thanks for sharing!

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Good to know!

[@WendsSc]

OMG! I love you for doing these unboxings. I could have spent a fortune this season. 😊

[@jackieturner4144]

omg I'm not bothering to buy this all that money for mostly dwlux samples I'd rather just buy the fully sizes of what I want so glad you made this video 😮xx

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

YUP!

[@stephanieconley6479]

I love advent calendar season, both for the good boxes and snark for the bad ones. So fun that you’re creating this content! Best value boxes (though pricy) usually come from UK retailers (Space NK, Cult Beauty, Harrod’s, Liberty London) and Korean sites (Stylevana, YesStyle).

[@truewants]

The Presentation of the Box alone is stunning.. ok going to watch!

[@lavayuki]

I never actually bought an advent calendar before, mostly because there is always a couple of products I won't use or like, and I prefer to just get what i want in sales. I am thinking of maybe one of the korean beauty ones like stylevana, or a general box from space nk or cult beauty with different brands

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Omg I loved the cult beauty!

[@ggamor21]

I have never bought an advent calendar that I was happy with because you always get travel size things. I could feel your blood pressure going up through the screen. 😂

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

😆 I love two of the four that I've unboxed so far

[@MakeupAgain561]

You looked stunning! I loved the eye look especially ❤ I agree with you 100% There should have been more full size items. I am completely underwhelmed by this advent calendar! I would have loved a quad- even if it was one I already had! Thank you for taking one for the team and showing us what we would get❤

[@simoliz03]

Heather, I love the fall makeup look! 💄🍁🍂

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Yay! Thank you!☺️

[@Stefistat]

I had my alarm set last night and purchased the Space K Advent calendar. It looks amazing. Next Cult Beauty. Thank you for these videos. ❤ unfortunately this isn’t worth it. So many sample sizes and deluxe sample sizes. The magic cream is not a full size. I own the full size only because I got half off the Disney packaging last year. Thank you for biting the bullet for us on this one.

[@Rylie_Camille]

The only advent calendars I ever see that are worth it are the ones by Asian beauty brands and online stores. They’re always full size popular products.

[@AnnieWiz1978]

No you are 100% right Heather this is ridiculous that's why I will not buy these rip offs period sephora favorites got to be a decent deal too❤😊 sorry it wasn't that good at all❤😢

[@antoinettezepeda433]

Charlotte is shady!!! I guess you paid for that gorgeous packaging?? There's no way those deluxe samples are something she charges people for?? Well shoot, maybe she does 😳 I think you just helped a lot of wallets from empty space. I always love your videos. I'm eager to see a Sigma Little Mermaid unboxing! I haven't seen anyone do one yet 💚💐💚

[@laurieann2714]

It may be unpopular but the packaging of her makeup is WAY better than the makeup itself and I have bought quite a few products from her and was never WOWED. Not sure the pricepoint is worth just a jewelry box. lol

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

I really enjoy most of the things I try from the brand, especially lip & cheek products!

[@laurieann2714]

@HeatherAustinmakeup I do like her cheek formula but for some reason the sponge tip grosses me out. Lol

[@EXOmakemeHorololo]

Her products are definitely just good to average never amazing. And some duds

[@chloekins07]

Thank you so much for doing this video. I was going to buy it, but this box really sucks.

[@rowanbeautifuldisaster]

Amazing you are doing all these advent calendars and seeing if it's worth it. This advent calendar is most def not worth the price. There is def much wasted space that could have been full size products. The top alone looks like it could have been a palette or have had at least 3 full size products.

[@jackieturner4144]

heather you have the first review yo of this really nice to see what you get before buying things don't get much better 2wks of hit weather and this review 🎉xx

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Thanks so much!! I hope seeing everything in the box is helpful!

[@brendaleewinans1806]

I’m so glad I didn’t order this on the app! Thank you! Only the mystery boxes have full size

[@debbieotoole1072]

Wow, this advert calendar was bad. You definitely took one for team there Heather 😮

[@rabbiroz3806]

So here is my take on Advent calendars and boxes in general. If you have a large makeup collection, I think they are a waste of money because you are either going to get repeats or junk. For the money you spent, you could have easily gotten four Charlotte Tilbury quads that you actually like and want. Similarly with the skincare one. You could have picked up the La Mer lip treatment and a travel size of the perfume or your choice and you’d be good to go. In my experience, most are not worth the money, unless it is like the Lunar Beauty one of years ago, where each day you opened an eyeshadow that made up a palette. The best boxes, to me, although they are not Advent Calendars, are the Unearthly mystery boxes, which are all new products. I am never disappointed in those.

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

The La Mer + Faces of Francis would be more than $190 so I’m super happy with buying the Liberty London box and getting everything else! Thanks for watching! 🩷🩷

[@CatMcCloud]

Look, when they don’t include full sizes of their literal bestsellers or things people WILL use like the setting spray and lip liner and magic cream… like that’s just insulting lol

[@user-rc8up2ko1i]

Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it !!❤ Love your makeup !! It s so cutee

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Thank you!

[@jroach3296]

Thank you for saving me some coins!

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Happy to help!

[@Jsmwl1]

The box wow is stunning

[@danielleddannheiser1381]

The box is beautiful ❤ but its not worth the money to me..... looks and feels like a rip off in my opinion ❤

[@KathrynSmith]

I was raging with you every time you opened something tiny 😅

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

i've been bamboozled

[@hannahgibbs2426]

I can tell you have never watched someone open the CT advent calendars before because this is every single year.. I will NEVER buy one of these cause it’s like this every year

[@beautyandmorewithrenee]

Hey 👋 Heather ❤ that’s a cute box 😊

[@hijennwu]

I know they accept returns, I would have but I guess you took one for the team swatching things out. At least the box is pretty 😅

[@BistrosHouse]

3 full size items in a $220 advent calendar?! YIKES CT

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Right?!

[@deannafradley2030]

Heather, I am so sorry that you got “ripped off “. This is how I view it. Most of the Advent calendar unboxings that I have seen have travel size products and that is why I don’t buy them

[@Question8619]

Every year, the samples are getting smaller, but the summer mystery box this year was amazing. It's a beautiful box. But that's about it. Since Charlotte sold her brand it went downhill. Their skincare line is amazing bu their makeup went downhill.

[@barbarawalker1263]

What about the Sephora's favorite kits Have you seen any of them? I believe they said there was four of them so far that's coming out..... I always buy them every year They have to get them for they sell out😊

[@carlamiller2330]

Heather I’m sad and disappointed for you.😢. You took a big one for the team girl. I feel like CT just stole your money.

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

😣

[@ADJP64]

Thank you for this unboxing. I’m sure you have saved your viewers a lot of money. What a disappointing Advent Calendar…

[@user-hd1lu5gd1t]

I’m so sorry I laughed multiple times during the video, the sad part not everyone watches KZbin videos. People will buy this box blindly.

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Thankfully you can scroll and see what is in the box on her site, I just wanted to wait and not see any spoilers!

[@missmansfield6306]

Looks like all the money for this went straight to packaging for the box.

Hey beautiful & looking so beautiful & matching that color of the box! I’m excited to see what good in this calendar… I love the pillow talk lippie! ❤

[@GlamaGirlCosmetics]

if it was more full size items, this would have been better

I agree!~

The box is cute but you definitely got robbed. She's a no for me.

[@darlosmurf148]

Oh dear.....I watched you getting crosser and crosser as this went on. Sorry - but this box is an insult! CT is having a laugh surely 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

yeah I am not happy with only 3 full size products

[@jaxhome706]

Not worth the price!! I completely agree. I am not interested at all in getting that box.

[@annemarievessey]

✨💗✨

[@pashunscroggins5249]

❤❤❤💞❤️😍

[@melodyshanholtz1380]

A very sad excuse of an advent calendar…. 1. Not worth 220. 2. I love pillow talk , but seriously over it at the same time .. 3. Positive I have all that exact same stuff , from freebies, gift with purchase, and birthday freebies ..

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Exactly my thoughts!

[@stephaniedrayton1671]

You can spend 30 with ipsy/ Boxycharm and get 5 full size products .with almost the same value worth....Charlotte is Ripping folks off....Shameful....I would of sent it back....

[@melissa_hilliard_ifekristii]

This box was a ponzi scheme! 😅🤬 Girl, no, it wasn't even worth $100.00! A bunch of sample sized products and one full sized one. CT could have tossed in a single eyeshadow or a quad or a full sized lipstick. Goodness gracious. 😒

[@Vamparellame]

Oh wow that's really sad. I definitely wouldn't waste my money on this. I feel like this is a cheap sample box. This doesn't give holiday advent calender vibes at all.

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

Thanks for sharing!

[@annemariec7659]

Your reaction was the best.😮 Definitely not picking this up.

[@barbarawalker1263]

Oh my word girl that box sucked I would have felt like I got ripped off it's ridiculous all the mines it would have upset me..... how many things you could buy with that kind of money $$ Well I can tell you if it was me that box would be going back I don't have money to blow on little things like that!!!

[@glitter5031]

I've watched these advent calendar unboxing for years on another channel. This is the exact same as every other year. I will NEVER buy from Charlotte Tillbury. EVER!

[@tinamoon]

That was INSULTING!!! Shame on Charlotte Tilbury for ripping her customers off. I do not believe that eas $300 value. Even you paying $187, that's a disgrace of a box. I was feeling anger build in me, for you, after each and every drawer was a sample and travel size. I was able to get that Charlotte Tilbury for $3.50 on Ipsy. The same exact size. So, I'm telling you, she's greedy AF. I'm so sorry you had to go through that disappointment.

[@tinamoon]

Sorry, I didn't put in what I received of the Charlotte Tilbury product. It was the setting spray. I bought it for $3.50 on Ipsy. I didn't want you to think I meant the entire box, I paid $3.50.

[@shellteresa778]

I have purchase CT products. I’ve liked some products. That being said I do feel her products are overpriced. I feel that CT advent calendar is not worth the price. I would be just as disappointed as you were.

[@Marikytr]

Beautiful makeup look! Ridiculous CT…😅feel so unworthy for you

[@michellecaudill7936]

I feel sad for you! I’m sorry

[@beautyandmorewithrenee]

Seems a bit disappointing for the price

[@ceciliasciamanna3884]

I wouldn’t buy it. It’s just too expensive for small sample sizes

[@madeinkorea79]

Her advent calender does only have 12 items instead of the normal 25. If she had more items that were full sizes, there is no way her company would only charge 220.00. 4 or 5 portents full size may cost that much or even less items. So what u got doesn't surprise me.

[@HeatherAustinmakeup]

If you love it, I love it for you!

[@madeinkorea79]

@@HeatherAustinmakeup i actually am not a lover of her products personally. Not cause her products aren't good, but for other reasons. I was just saying that for the price, i didn't expect people to get a good amount of full of sizes and for me, I would have seen what I was getting before I buy those calenders. Yoy may want to try the Space Nk, those are my favorite and also the Cult Beauty too.

Wow I feel like that's an awful lot of money to spend to get what you got I don't think you really should have got maybe one mini or two SMH...,

[@zbluesy]

Omg! Huge rip off. Thank you for the video. I have zero envy. I spent much less at her last sale bundle (mystery box) and got a full size eyeshadow palette and a bunch of better products than this.
