Oh heck yes 🎉

[@danisbookshelf3167]

I will forever adore this series! Also, I absolutely refuse to declutter my old Nars and Tarte blush palettes because I pull them out every time I'm tempted to get a new blush palette, and then I slowly put my wallet away because I just don't use them enough to make sense. It works every time!

[@EXOmakemeHorololo]

I also keep older palettes from Nars, Tarte and Too Faced... They last ages and the quality is unchanged. I have also noticed I often like the older color stories and options better than new palettes coming out

[@danisbookshelf3167]

@@EXOmakemeHorololo Truly, once you have one, you will practically never need another 😂 And I held out on getting mine for a long time because so many of these palettes only have a couple of colors I'll wear.

[@herminegranger456]

Thank you for bringing back your "You don't need that!-series" I really needed that!

[@LisaF_]

Wise, wise words!!! For me, I put things I’d like to buy on a list where they must sit for at least a week or two. (I put some things on the list for months) Sometimes after just doing that, the feeling fades and you can’t even remember why you were so crazy about an item anyway! I do this for limited edition things, too. If it sells out in the meantime, it wasn’t meant to be. I refuse to panic buy items. I tend to end up regretting panic bought/impulse bought items way more than things I’ve really thought through. Most of the time, I end up realizing I didn’t really need it or I won’t really use it. I got caught up in the pretty shades or packaging. You nailed it: There is always something else exciting around the corner!

[@rebeccaneely5752]

I was so close to buying one of the Dior sparkly liquid lipsticks. But I don't wear liquid lipstick that much. So, I decided I could just wear a lipstick I already have with a sparkly gloss on top, instead.

[@Alberto-wu1mj]

I went through the same process.

[@BluebreezeRose]

Me too! Ironically I don’t like chunky glitters on my lips or my face but I was tempted😅. Thank you Charolette speaking some sense to me.

[@divacirce2845]

Yes! I can do a lot better things with $50+ for 1 lip color!

[@berlineczka]

As for the sparkly lipstick: you can just tap in some sparkly eyeshadow or highlighter onto your lips over a cream/vinyl lipstick for identical effect. You don't need to buy anything to get a look that you wear twice a year. Use what you already have & be creative.

[@sanellaaletovic1303]

The creativity dies when you buy everything you would like to have without thinking. Last year, I was lusting after a TF shiny and glitzy lip balm- and I re-created it out of my existing stash and it was THE color of the season to me❤

[@Thistastesbad]

I haven't hit pan on any of my Nars Cheek palettes, but I did use up an entire Hourglass Holiday cheek palette! (The one with the ugly see thru packaging from 2019 I think it was?) The only Advent Calendar I buy now, is one for my dog :) The joy on her face every morning with her treat just makes me so happy!

[@sarahwill5562]

[@cathydavis8212]

Let me tell you why I both agree with you, and still buy advent calendars, why they're worth my hard earned money. After traveling 3,000 miles to spend the holidays with family for 30 years, I now happily celebrate at home, with my dog. I decorate, put the tree up, play the schmaltzy music, and put my presents, mostly from myself, under the tree. The advent calendars are my luxury splurge....which is the definition of luxury, isn't it? They bring me joy. And since I always buy the rest of my beauty products on sale, it's self financing!

[@isabelw.5666]

What you said about the advent calendars is the simple truth! Even SpaceNK, which has amazing products in it, has sooo much stuff you wouldn't buy. I pick the stuff I am really excited about out of a calendar and sum up how much it would cost me buying these items directly. And honestly: I have found most holy grails already! And even the really good picks cost less than the calendar. And then you get the full size and correct colour you want them in. 😅

[@loriz3916]

I already gave in on some of these (Hourglass palettes and ND I Need a Warm --- which is not aptly named because I did not, but it is great quality). I have been awaiting your next "you don't need that" video because you're the voice of reason that I need sometimes 😂

OK you talked me out of the Hourglass pallete I was very close but yes last years is in my drawer and iv used it twice!! But to late ND I need a warm is already looking new and sparkly in my drawer 😂😂😂❤

[@TheFaro2011]

I think hourglass are the most samey expensive product when you really have more than one, it almost defeats its purpose. More than one face palette, and reduces the usage of every other palette.....!! Expensive Hourglass idea is offset by everything in one place and becomes worth it by cost per use

[@MiriamRoquiz]

Hello Charlotte, my bane are my mature under-eye areas and I’m forever looking for concealer and cream to minimize the lines and wrinkles. This is where Westman Atelier’s concealer recently purchased comes in. It is the BEST that works for me! I agree it is pricey but I used my Sephora points to save $10. And YES, one should go to a store to swatch the samples! I am always Neutral but with this product, L4/ Light Peach worked for me! Thanks for your humor and blunt honesty! I always look forward to your videos!

[@CCKittyKat931]

Thank you❤I am hoping she comes out with a mothership 😊waiting till then😊

[@marissaswinghammer3149]

Thank you! I live in a flat and have limited space but individually these items look pretty small and relatively affordable. But if you keep getting them that changes. I did get the I Need a Warm after a few months of thinking it over and with a 15% off coupon and I don’t regret it. I have a warm tan complexion and I only own a few of her minis and no larger palettes so it’s getting a lot of use this autumn for me. But I also got the WA concealer and it’s not yellow on me but still I regret it. Generally very solid advice for those of us turning to these channels for swatches and honest reviews.

[@TimeTravelReads]

I love the practicality of this series. As someone who is new to the makeup world, I don't have all those products and I find the concept of holiday collections baffling.

[@marianna6926]

Love this series. You are fantastic at putting things into perspective. Pet peeve. I am always puzzled, why are highlighters so big? Who uses that much highlight in their everyday life? I live in a warm climate with lots of sunlight. If I used glittery makeup when I go outside in the daytime, I would look like a disco ball. I love sparkly makeup so much but I just don’t see it as very practical. Especially the enormous quantity that highlighters come in.

[@AllyKit]

I feel you! Whenever I am tempted, I remind myself I do not want sweaty looking textured skin. I actually returned my Dragon palette. The peach blushes made me look orange. I much prefer my Jellyfish.

[@ellenkass9410]

[@jkulikova]

Great video! I agree with almost everything and follow a similar approach to buying my beauty products. I somewhat disagree about advent calendars. Many of them aren’t worth it, I agree. I calculated, and I’m sure it doesn’t make any financial sense to buy single-brand ones, even if you’re a fan of the brand: those give you about 20% (rarely more) discount for those products that you’d buy, but you’re paying also for samples that normally you’d get free if you were to buy actual full size products for that amount of money. But when it comes to multi-brand calendars, some of those expensive ones include 15+ full sized products and then some travel products and yes, samples. The idea is to count only those products that you want to use and would have bought anyway, then add those that you want to try but wouldn’t buy a full size for that (and smaller sizes aren’t available). From that sum, subtract 10-20% (based on what discount you might get realistically if you purchase those products separately). If whatever you calculated covers the calendar price, it is worth buying because the rest is a pleasant GWP. Otherwise, it’s not worth spending money regardless of the beautiful packaging and promised “value.”

[@sovrappensiero1]

Your makeup look and top look amazing on you! That mauve is such a good color on you.

Charlotte darling! Yet another fantastic video, thank you for your honest opinion and your sense of humor....I totally love your personality. As for these product you are showcasing today.

Thank you 🙏 I almost bought another Dior sequin lip and I bought the one that looks like concealer lip that requires a lip liner so why I wanted another one is beyond me 😂

[@BluebreezeRose]

Dior and Chanel are my kryptonite! 😭 but haven’t purchased Chanel as much lately as the recent collections don’t appeal to me. Esp the fall collection was a full skip for me except the nail polish.

[@lyra2282]

I love these videos from you Charlotte. I'm on a very low buy currently, so this is very timely. I love your sense of humour, but even more than that, I love that you are so well informed about makeup, so understanding and non-judgmental. I think for many of us, people in our everyday lives can say things like "omg why do you need that" or "what's so special about that" or a myriad other things that will only make us feel judged and defensive. But you know makeup so well, so when you say "you don't need that, it's not that special", it comes from a very well informed place and is very hard to argue with :)

This is just the best series. I need to be talked out of buying stuff, but I don't want a lecture, I want to be laughed out of my folly. I was quite proud of myself recently for managing to resist the I need a warm. I would totally use that palette, colours are up my alley. But I concluded with the Viseart neutral mattes and coy palettes (for the peachy shimmers), plus my ND I need a nude, bronze, and glam palettes, I can already do what I could do with that INAW.

[@anniej.4539]

I have the GUCCI highlighter in the champagne shade for a special event and I think it’s beautiful. It’s a little bit of a sparkle and I also think it will last forever because one dip goes a long way for me due to the texture. If you don’t want a beaming metallic highlight, this one is great. If you already have any hourglass highlighter , these are very similar but if you like the shades and you don’t already have the shade , and you have the money, these are beautiful and demure 😊

And here I was always complaining that I thought the Hourglass palettes had too many warm and peachy colours all the time -- and was happier with this palette than most. I haven't even bought one of these holiday palettes in three or four years because the colours were always "too warm" for my complexion! I have just hit pan on the one I had from maybe four years ago and so this year I felt justified in buying one of these new ones

Charlotte, YES, thank you so much for bringing back “you don’t need that series” I love it! I understand that it’s your job to review new products but I’m sorry you have wasted your money on some products that are so expensive. I really appreciate all of your videos! You’re so right about every single product you talked about. I looked around like oh Charlotte is talking about me hahaha! I’ve been wanting the new Patrick Ta foundation, the WA concealer, the Natasha Denona I need a warm palette, the Gucci highlighter and the Hourglass face palettes! I have purchased one pretty much every year but I have so many I’m not going to buy it or think about it anymore. I love that you tell us if you already have this product you don’t need to rush and buy the new! I get FOMO every time I watch a new makeup video! I’ve had really great self control this year, kinda lol 😂 I really like how you keep the product picture up while you’re talking about each thing. When you said….There is always something else exciting around the corner ❤ ahhhh just loved that! You’re so lovely, funny, talented, beautiful and you’re always so honest!! Holiday is tough to get through and everything is so pretty and sparkly. We don’t pay full price for permanent products, we wait for a sale and have a cooling off period! I found this so helpful! You’re the best! ☺️
