The Most BORING XMASS EVER! | Boring holiday makeup collections

[@ajfuller83]

"This just me being petty for a whole fucking video, isn't it" 😂 This is one of the reasons we love you, Robert 💜🖤

[@deedeedussard]

Right we are here for the petty 😂😂

[@caspermessina]

I loved the moment of self awareness lol😂 it made him more charming

[@keikoandnyla]

I read this as pretty and did not question!

[@valerieva1544]

It’s just Robert apologising for whinging and being British at the same time. It’s just not allowed here. There’s no law against it, but others will have you believing there is. I’m perfectly happy to hear Robert rant and then post a video of it. That’s just me, tho.😂😂

[@reinadelaluz1573]

Yesss but it’s also so true everything he says. 😂

[@quinlantaylor04]

I want Christmas collections to actually look like Christmas! I want the tacky red and green packaging, the glitter, the gold and sliver colors. None of this “all year round wearable girly” stuff. I have enough neutral and pink crap.

[@wanderer4262]

yes! or like super glamorous, gold and silver sparkles, party vibes! stop giving me the same neutral beige shit in slightly different packaging!! where is the fun!!!!

[@mkchristner]

Yes, I feel like Christmas is an opportunity to do the red and green and sparkles! ✨ Why do something that looks neutral and “everyday” when you can pull something fun and glam at Christmas time?

[@nightgoddess9]

I need makeup to be more rich and colorful in general. You only need one or two good neutral palettes. After that, I want a vast range of colors and shimmers so I can play and go crazy. Robert’s looks are always so colorful but still elegant to me and it’s like people are afraid that color is tacky or excessive. Color is fun! We need fun wherever we can find it these days

[@Gemma.love2023]

So true, the only time I want chintzy, Christmas dazzled make up! Something fun, still wearable but something great for Xmas parties etc!! Red lipstick, doesnt cut it 😂

[@ElizabethTrexler-d3c]

Yes! With Christmas colors, not just nudes!

[@delusion5867]

These releases may be boring but Robert's eyeshadow look IS NOT, honestly stunning (like always but extra today)

[@NoFirstNoLastName]

For real I want to know what products created that!

[@amesblitz339]

The look is mesmerizing, in the best way!💙

[@twofivechicken]

About Clinique: "Their eye makeup remover is like using rose scented acid" Im dying over the draggging going on in this vid i love it.

[@CrystalFier]

Personally think Christmas colours are boring. I want a Winter Solstice set, with deep blacks and purples to represent the longest night, and icy blues, glacial greens, and white shimmers that look like fresh snow.

[@stormbourbon8379]

I like the cut of your jib, and I am interested in reading your manifesto! ;)

[@rianorman3526]

WOW!!! Some really boring Christmas collections!!! Imagine..a Christmas party look...yes!!! Let's get the beige out!!! 🙄🙄🙄 xxxxxxxx

[@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory]

lol ngl I have a certain skin tone & type where one tends to veer toward nudes & beige after 45…i was pretty pleased with my festive beige look 😂 lol for real, my eyes are recovering from a bad reaction, no holiday eye makeup this year. While warm light neutrals do flatter me more, what makeup love can resist a big festive eye look?!?! Makes me very suspicious of these brands

[@littlejunkettes4122]

In traditional Kim Kardashian fashion.

"Smurf dust from the bones...of mythical creatures..." I sense you too are disappointed...?😂 Really though, as usual you're spot on Robert. I thought that the spate of advent calendars from many companies were highly lacking as well. 💜🖤💜🖤💜

I'm here for this petty too, I remember holiday collections being all fun and/or dramatic shades whilst being sparkly or metallic too. Now it's all flipping neutrals. It's Christmas, give us the vampy jewel tones and shimmer we need to get through the winter gloom!!!!!!

[@sandywalter9728]

YES!!! I NEED VAMP!❤

[@KarinaSankarsingh-vi9ri]

Does anyone remember the old Avon mini lipstick samples? Sooo tiny and cute my grandma would only use them because she was ummm cheap ❤

Our Gramma had the Whole Carousel of every shade!!! She was really into glam and makeup and clothes. Very French Canadian meets Extra Cha cha.

[@user-rq6tw4zp4w]

Ugh, I agree. Every christmas makeup release I came across was so incredibly boring.

[@vvitch-mist20]

Creativity costs too much money.

[@hyiso811]

OMG I turned this on as a background didnt even look much at the thumbnail, when I then look up and see that eyemake up, I literally screamed, how mesmerising, trully stunning!

[@trinahughes1230]

Too faced needs a reality check ! Most people are not spending that kind of money on boring old chalky makeup, if you have 1 palette from them you have all their colors... let's be honest... I do like a few of their products, but child I'm not about to pay 40 dollars for a face primer! I'll just wait until it's at t.j.maxx....

[@KristenZianourry2015]

Yeah i find their deals on tiktok shop are the only thing that would make it worth it.

[@quinlantaylor04]

I still remember 6+ years ago when too faced holiday launches were so freaking good! Even better than their other makeup. Those days are long gone

[@trinahughes1230]

@quinlantaylor04 Yes ! I was a big fan of the brand .... everything was super cute and loved most of the products and their customer service was amazing....

[@tearfulxsoul]

I've lost so much interest in them I don't even bother looking at it when I'm in mecca (its not in sephora in Australia, its our other equal to sephora) like its just boring

@@nikkibordeaux5980 my gosh is it gorgeous or is it gorgeous???😍😍😍😍 thank you for letting me know😉

[@z3phyr1e]

It's gorgeous but was the shimmer on one eye only intentional? It's still beautiful but it stuck out to me 🤔

[@galatea5455]

@@z3phyr1e Not sure if it was intentional, but it almost looks like, "which one do I like better" type of thing. They're both stunning, but personally i like the side with less glitter (there's still some in the very inner corner) because it doesn't cover the dark blue on the inner part of the lid like the other side does, so you're able to see the color gradient a little better. Can't go wrong with either side though!

[@katherinesmethers9243]

I think brands don’t invest in their Holiday Collections anymore because as a consumer, I am really just not into any limited edition releases because of the fear of liking the product and are not being able to repurchase it.

[@Inthedarkbluesea]

Fr. I don't buy limiteds anymore for this exact reason!

[@craz4jaymz]

It's trauma I'm not ready to invest in 😅

[@queenofwales_]

True. You find the shade of your life, and it’s limited edition. 💀

[@kennagrace4752]

One brand that I think hit it out the park this year with a winter/holiday collection was Trixie Cosmetics!! Trixie loves her colorful looks, and they decided to go for a ski lodge slash holiday cookie icing-esque vibe for the color story, which was simply *chef's kiss*!! Colourpop wasn't insanely interesting and didn't stand out, but if anyone wanted a really vibrant holiday palette for this time of year, I think Trixie's pallete would be absolutely perfect for it!! And I just wanted to say that the eye makeup is giving fruity candy cane, and I'm OBSESSED with the vibrancy of the shades!! 💜🩵💙✨🫶🏻

[@FinnySpam]

robert's eye makeup to me gives like. victorian fancy holiday evening party with rich velvet gowns and beautiful shiny jewels and gems set in bright gold and silver antique filigree rings and pendants hahaha.

[@Shannon_K_Dougherty]

Loved the Trixie Cosmetics collection! I bought a few pieces from it and have been wearing them daily

[@Gemma.love2023]

Never heard of Trixie make up, I’m going to Google now!! Ty ❤

[@Neenerella333]

​@@Gemma.love2023same!

[@danicee]

Last year’s Colourpop holiday palette was the Muppets collection, it was super colorful and bright. They brought back the Rudolph palette last year from 2022 because it sold well and people were hoping to pick it up again. I agree that this year’s palette was very light, but it did fit the IP well.

[@lucyjane3803]

I think it's better to have less of these limited/holiday themed collections. The waste in cosmetics, especially packaging waste, is already astronomical. Do we really need to contribute to it more to have something shiny for one day of the year? I'd rather gift someone a product they use regularly and love, so I'm not mad at MAC for doing the classic lip kits tbh.

[@allisonmarks9369]

I agree with this video my thoughts exactly. I did buy a Mac Lipstick for myself this Christmas in the Peppermint Pink colour. I’m very excited because I’ve been looking for a light enough pink for me but can say that I miss when Christmas releases were fun

[@rebeccabassett2612]

I actually appreciate the fact that you mention your collab frequently, it tells me that you genuinely love and use it!! ❤ I'm loving the palette so far, first time using Blend Bunny and the first time I've actually been properly excited to try fun looks for Christmas instead of just throwing on a gold-ish shimmer and hoping for the best 😂

[@theprincessed]

Absolutely agree. The only bright spark this Christmas has been Cosmic Beauty's "Tis The Season" collection. Such fun colours!

[@SmileyWho]

I usually love getting beauty stuff during Christmas. However, I agree. This year was extremely lack luster. The best “holiday” launches this year were the Melt x Bailey Sarian Fatally Yours II collection and your Divination collection with Blend Bunny. I can easily make cute holiday looks with those.

[@alyannasandiego]

STOP I actually really like that Frosty palette, the pressed glitters are so sparkly but feel so smooth when you swatch and apply them

[@alicebowen]

I love watching you so much Robert 😂 "Smurf dust" and "just some mini products and a silver bag.... Merry Christmas!" Both had me creasing 🤣 love a good laugh out load

[@xtrastrengthsassx1269]

“Smurf dust…from the booness” lolol, that whole description and how you said it killed me!😂

[@EdwardianRainbow]

I love the Frosty The Snowman pallette. It feels very much like Frosty. But also I have two lipsticks that much some of the colors.

[@juliakoronka198]

i also love the frosty palette it’s a good price and the jelly glitters are also really nice. i hate flaky glitter and it dries better than lots of more expensive items i’ve tried.

[@FinnySpam]

bobert belsh time yay! excited. finally did a huge makeup clean out after getting a rash and a stye from old expired products back to back, so need to refresh my collection bc i've gotten rid of anything not purchased in the past 6 months, as some of my make up was probably close to 15 yrs old.

[@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory]

Shhhhh…I have a stila blush that just had her sweet 16 & doesn’t realize she should be old and crusty. I do practice impeccable hygiene w her, but I am stunned she’s still so vibrant & her formula is just like the day I rescued her from Sephora… I know I should declutter her, but I just cannnnnnnnt

[@naukumaija7056]

Rober this eye is completely incredible on you, somehow the color combo makes your eyes look almost like a grapey purple and/or a red winey red when you look straight at the camera, I'm mesmerized!!!

[@slouisec]

Oden's Eye came out with a big holiday eyeshadow pallette collection. I had to double check what the color stories were but from what i saw online they're very beautiful and interesting. I've only used flora story, sea talk, and spirit planet but I love the shades and always feel inspired by the color stories 😊

[@carbonwildflower]

Good grief these products are BORING. I hope you and your family have a great holidays though Robert 🎄🎉💖🤩

[@jazwhoaskedforthis]

Even when I'm not interested in the topic, I click on these videos so I can stare at your eye looks. I love that you still inspire me to do makeup, I'm rarely so moved these days.

[@joedvice]

Like 20 years ago, I was living for the MAC holiday releases. They were so good!

[@thirtysomethingsewist]

I was literally browsing the colourpop website last night, hoping for so fun & inspiring things. Saw there was a sale & was ready to go nuts buying stuff… but there wasn’t really anything that I wanted to buy? I still remember ordering ridiculous amounts of their products, having them arrive in their beautiful big box & spending the rest of the day trying out different makeup looks. Like, cancel my plans - my colourpop order just arrived. But just nothing.. maybe I need to look a bit deeper, past the ‘holiday’ promoted stuff. 7:16

[@andreas.5910]

Yes! I ordered a colourpop mystery box, and then I started looking through the palettes for the ones I most hoped would be in it, and it was like... these kinda all look the same.

[@briarrose8154]

Omg cosmic brushes’ holiday palette is soooo beautiful

[@AnneStevens-r6v]

I love cosmic brushes, their formula is amazing xx

[@morganwhite2176]

For Kim K’s lipglosses, just put on some plain lip gloss with a tiny bit of shimmer eyeshadow on top. Done!😂

[@oogiechannel]

I would love a gingerbread man set of makeup. Colors, shapes, and you could pair so many different combos with that. Definitely some that would compliment those pastels better than that frosty the snowman palette

[@JillKnapp]

"And the marketing for this was all like Kim in like fur and snow and shit." 🤣🤣💅

[@singerdude1992]

Question for you Robert. Can you do a video about how you would do collections based on holidays? Like imagine an XMas collection and what eyeshadow shades you’d have. How many shades too? Something fun like that

I feel the same way this year. I was excited to go out and purchase holiday make up, but no one delivered it for me. I did purchase a couple items from Mac's holiday collection, but honestly I still felt let down this year. The way I see it is the whole rest of the year I can purchase everyday looks and such, but I crave the excitement of holiday pasts as brands release their limited edition holiday colors and packaging, because I do plunk my money down on it, it's part of the experience for the holidays for me. And in my world, I don't care if I can't get again, there would be the next holiday collection the next year to fall in love with.

The excitement is all in the indie brands and has been for a while now, imho! 😃All the mainstream brands are making the same boring nudes in a different packaging. Menagerie cosmetics launched a really pretty Arctic collection, and it's not just a pretty palette, but also really interesting lipsticks and other products, Bella Beaute' Bar has just released a new collab collection that fits the winter theme perfectly, Cosmic Beauty made a really unique holiday palette, and so did Dede Signature - I would be happy getting any of those as a gift! 🎁 And then there was Blendbunny collab with a certain Robert Welsh, you know, pretty recently, that I bet went onto many Christmas wishlists, having been released pretty close to the holidays!

[@chloedemure]
