They used to include classics like velvet teddy and an iconic red of some kind, I feel like if they added those in place of a few of the lustre glass lipsticks and that eyemask it would be grand.
@@Littlebit_Batwitchyeah because you’re only meant to twist it a little bit for a small amount of product and it’s a gloss, they can add a slight tint and the odd colours like blue and green especially can be really good for neutralising reddish tones :)
oh my goshhhh Sophie!! I used to watch you back in 2013 or earlier even! I'm an OG and just came across your videos!! Miss you and I love how your personality and vibe hasn't changed! I literally grew up watching you and sophdoesnails!! Icons and legends, you girls taught me so much about makeup!!
I actually think for the price you get a lot of full size products. Mac products aren’t cheap and if you added up the individual cost of all the items together the value would come to way more than you paid .
i’m going through one of the worst times of my life right now but i’m halfway through this video and i realised i’ve had a moment of peace where i’ve been distracted from my sadness momentarily as i love your videos. thank you 🤍
I am so sorry you are having a hard time Anna, I too have had a horrible two years due to family illnesses etc but think positive and know you are never alone. Take care my friend.
I just adore how genuine and authebtic your reactions are! And the adorable face you make when you're confused is the same face my 15 year old daughter makes when she's confused, also! Love your videos. They always brighten my day!
Ahhh so excited for the series to be back! Looking forward to November 😁 love this annual series 🩵 you’re so genuine and seem so friendly. Don’t stop being you, keep on radiating sunshine ☀️ x
I love the skincare last year and what‘s more my very picky skin liked it, and I like the colours. I also admittedly love the neutral lipsticks. I have them spread over my purses, one browny and one pinky shade each and I‘m set for the year
Make sure you don’t turn up the squirt product too much because it’s the one that is sensitive soft & will break if you have it rolled up too high! 🥰🇨🇦
are you going do your video where you put on the makeup as you go threw the calander as thats my favourite challenge you do with these advemt calalnders
Hi Soph! did you pre-order Cult Beauty calendar this year? I've heard it's freaking amazing, and products in it are definitely worth its price. Have an amazing day 🩷
Hi I have I question that might be silly haha. But do all makeup advent calenders from the same kit always have the same shades or are they random? Thanks!
Sophie, please could you do the Body Shop advent calendar and the W7 advent calendar? i’m considering buying them but want to know if it’s worth it 🙈💗 xx
That mini serumizer is actually for sale on their site. It’s not a free sample. It’s $45. If I found the right items and did the math right, that box is a $575 value
I am so surprised that you didn't know that the lip squirt product was. It was so huge last year because everyone was applying them wrong. Huge on the clock app. Don't click up too much. Also, they work like a color corrector in a way. So, the green would neutralize a red lipstick, or if your lips were too red, it would neutralize them.
The creators of the calendar were too carefull in choosin the products which fit to everyone, so it comes our boring. I think, in advent calendars there must be some unusual products, which one will not just normally buy. But there is a chance to try and evaluate finding it in the calendar.
Could you do an advent calendar from Technic cosmetics? 🙏 It's only £45 and it seems to be quite good when it comes to what you get for that money. I'd love to see what you think about it.
I’d love if you did this but with the made by Mitchell advent calendar. He’s releasing a 6 day, 12 day and 25 day. They are being released on 6th November at 5pm on TikTok 💚
Oh, Just from the fact they included the squirt lip gloss I'm already more impressed than previous years- These boxes always felt very much like an intro into mac, where if you're buying it you probably already love mac so will have 90% of the products! I'm probably speaking wayyyy too soon though.... Update: I spoke too soon.
For that money you’d at least expect an eyeshadow palette to be in one of those bigger sized bits - I think having the full size products is good but I think they need more variety and maybe something other than singular eyeshadows and lip stuff… the brow gel looks cool though ❤
I love watching these videos, I could never afford a beauty calendar (can’t work due to health) but seeing what’s in them is so fun. I always love when you question what things are 😂. This was a good one but the colours were too samey to justify the price imo 🥰
I think the lipstick shades are warm vs cold shades; they lack variety, but it is the 'everyone can find something for them' strategy. The huge matte ones are quite obvious, especially when you put them side by side. One is more coral-orange pink, while the other is pinkpink - both more on the nude side, to be technically the same, just for different undertones. I wasn't sure about the 3, but yeah, it's the same situation. The tiny red one is just different. It looks more neutral tone, but these tend to look very pink on the lips ... And the 2 'glossy' (I don't remember their name, sorry), the deeper pink-red is cold, and the lighter is neutral-warm pinkish. :) Basically, you got just 3 lipsticks if you're strictly cold or warm undertone (and if you care), all six for mix if you're ok with it.
I watch you unbox this every year and it always convinces me not to buy it😂 That crayon eyeliner is rubbish, never owned something so smudgy. but the macstack mascara is next level😍
I don't think I've ever noticed before but Sophie, your lips looked like they already had some colour on them before you put everything on. You have a very pretty natural lip colour. 🤗
Hoping you'll do the PLouise one it looks interesting and from what I've seen from last year one of the few that was worth the money? Just my opinion. Love you advent series thank you ❤
For real tho, why does it feel like you've just started this series? I remember the first one like yesterday but it was what? Back in 2017 or something like that? Just shows how long I've been around ❤❤
Also Mac literally have all colours under the sun, yet each year it seems they only do nudes. Like stick a nice plum purple or a mermaid blue/green, a hot pink in there - don't have to be all crazy colours put at least 1 or 2!
I have yet to see one Advent Calendar unboxing that didn't seem like a rip off. I always have hope. You would think they would become extra creative one year. The mascara looks great. They should have swapped a lipstick for a blush.
I'm late watching today lol, pizza n film 1st. Love this series, can't wait until November when the rest arrive🎉. This was ok as ling as you need lots of lipsticks lol. Love your vids xx💄🖤💜
hate glitter, but that one looked really nice! wont see me earing it though haha. The small business one I've been getting for the past 3/4 years (since 2020 i think?) went up too - though it's justified as they do put a lot of work into it i.e. design the paper each year, hand wrap all 24 gifts. plus the proucts it self often come from small businneses, apart from day 24 which is always a hot chocolate bomb or stick. Much rather give my £120 to a small business then to a big chain company like MAC! I feel more effort and care goes into it xD
It’s a shame that the products were way too similar, they should’ve thrown in like a red or like nice festive colours for people who wanna do Christmas looks, also those small skin care stuff like wtf I feel that’s smaller than any mini or sample I’ve ever tried
I don't know why, but I really enjoy advent calendars, unboxing, and reviews
glad you enjoy them! ❤
Same! I get excited every year
It’s nostalgia for me! It feels like the vibe of 2016 instagram🎈
Me too get excited to watch these every year
Me too & I rlly want a good box, that’s worth it.
They used to include classics like velvet teddy and an iconic red of some kind, I feel like if they added those in place of a few of the lustre glass lipsticks and that eyemask it would be grand.
yeah I agree! ❤
Last year I got Velvet Teddy and Ruby Woo in set together so it could be that?🥰
The green lip thing was all over tiktok and influencers kept breaking them while trying to use it. Lol😂
oh haha! i didn't know that ❤
The texture is very soft nor can you twist product back down into tube.
@@Littlebit_Batwitchyeah because you’re only meant to twist it a little bit for a small amount of product and it’s a gloss, they can add a slight tint and the odd colours like blue and green especially can be really good for neutralising reddish tones :)
@@valleyofghouls 🙄Yes, I know how a gloss works....I was just letting Sophie know since she didn't know product.
@@Littlebit_Batwitch I think Sophie knows how lipgloss works!
oh my goshhhh Sophie!! I used to watch you back in 2013 or earlier even! I'm an OG and just came across your videos!! Miss you and I love how your personality and vibe hasn't changed! I literally grew up watching you and sophdoesnails!! Icons and legends, you girls taught me so much about makeup!!
aw thank you so much!! ❤
I actually think for the price you get a lot of full size products. Mac products aren’t cheap and if you added up the individual cost of all the items together the value would come to way more than you paid .
true! they've definitely improved since their older calendars ❤
I really love your Chanel. You seem like a very kind and genuine person. ♥️♥️🩷🩷🩷♥️♥️♥️🩷🩷🩷♥️♥️♥️♥️
Still not worth it tho imo
Yes, but they should put other stuff rather than Velvet teddy lipsticks, the lipsticks in the calendars never look good on me
Why do they always put warm toned brownish stuff, literally no one looks good with it 😢
i’m going through one of the worst times of my life right now but i’m halfway through this video and i realised i’ve had a moment of peace where i’ve been distracted from my sadness momentarily as i love your videos. thank you 🤍
aw i'm sorry to hear that.. i'm glad my video helped for a bit! sending you lots of love ❤
@@sophielouuuise thank you ❤️
I am so sorry you are having a hard time Anna, I too have had a horrible two years due to family illnesses etc but think positive and know you are never alone. Take care my friend.
@@chrislamin thank you, you too
Honestly one of the best mac advent calendars i have seen in years
Thank you for doing this calendar
I just adore how genuine and authebtic your reactions are! And the adorable face you make when you're confused is the same face my 15 year old daughter makes when she's confused, also! Love your videos. They always brighten my day!
aw thank you so much ❤
You're so welcome! You deserve all the likes!
The video I've been anticipating since the Mac advent calendar unboxing last year🤣
haha enjoy! ❤
I just love your advent calendar videos 🫶 There’s something about these videos of yours that’s especially cosy and comfy. They never fail to relax me
aww im so glad, thank you ❤
Ahhh so excited for the series to be back! Looking forward to November 😁 love this annual series 🩵 you’re so genuine and seem so friendly. Don’t stop being you, keep on radiating sunshine ☀️ x
aw! thank you so much ❤❤
I come back every year to see you unboxing. The smell of the air around this time is heavenly
❤❤❤
neeeed swatches of everything, would love to see the shades on skin!
I’ve actually been waiting and checking your page every few days to see if a new advent video was up.
aww ❤
I love the skincare last year and what‘s more my very picky skin liked it, and I like the colours. I also admittedly love the neutral lipsticks. I have them spread over my purses, one browny and one pinky shade each and I‘m set for the year
This is my first time watching a video from you! Love your sense of humor 😂
Got to say the things you come out with do make me laugh 😂
Especially the spray at the end haha
hehe ❤
Make sure you don’t turn up the squirt product too much because it’s the one that is sensitive soft & will break if you have it rolled up too high! 🥰🇨🇦
Love ur videos Sophie love ur advent calendar look forward to seen them every year ❤️
Again a lovely video your Voice just made it soo Perfect🧡🧡🧡
thank you so much! ❤
im sure that the P.Louise Express 2024 Advent Calendar is going to be your favorite if you take it
Love the eyeshadow on you! Love your adventure series would love you to mix it up with some food calendars as well as beauty ones ❤
thank you!! ❤
If you spray your brush with the fix plus then pickup that shimmer shadow it should work better :)
Your hair is GORGEUS 😍 it looks so healthy 💖🔥
I love you're videos. been following you for 13years 😮 You're so funny and laid back. my kinda girl. my favourite ❤
My favorite series by you soph!

As soon as you said “day 21” I literally said in my head “my lucky number” haha. Love these series
the glide or die look right after the high anticipation got me 😂😂😂
I just found your channel and I really like it! Your personality is so sweet and nice. I’ve been binge watching all your videos 😂 love them ❤
Love your videos but where did you get your top from please it’s lush
Hi Soph! did you pre-order Cult Beauty calendar this year? I've heard it's freaking amazing, and products in it are definitely worth its price. Have an amazing day 🩷
ahh I didn't get that one this year! looks like its sold out now ❤
Hi I have I question that might be silly haha. But do all makeup advent calenders from the same kit always have the same shades or are they random? Thanks!
over the taupe powder kiss is my FAVORITE
Sophie, please could you do the Body Shop advent calendar and the W7 advent calendar? i’m considering buying them but want to know if it’s worth it 🙈💗 xx
Yaaaay it’s TTIIMMMEEEEEEEE✨✨
I love these videos so much. You make me want to buy them all honestly but I still love watching you open them🖤🖤🖤
aw thank you so much ❤
Hi Sophie, can you do Sephora favorites advent calendar? It’s quite expensive but looks good I’d think? Xx
That mini serumizer is actually for sale on their site. It’s not a free sample. It’s $45. If I found the right items and did the math right, that box is a $575 value

I absolutely love these type of videos and you look so beautiful as always!❤
thank you so much! ❤
Love the full sizes and love the colors!!
❤❤
My fav series! I think MAC is giving the same amount of product in a larger component for those large lipsticks
thank you!!! ❤
Yes, you were right.
Pda stands for public displays of affection.
ahh thought so ❤
Great video Sophie!! Are you going to do advent calendars where you apply the products as they come out? Xx ❤️
thank you!! im not sure this year, i might do :) ❤
Can you do the made by Mitchell advent calendar?
Love these videos been watching for years now . Please continue with these x😊
thank you so much ❤
The creators of the calendar were too carefull in choosin the products which fit to everyone, so it comes our boring. I think, in advent calendars there must be some unusual products, which one will not just normally buy. But there is a chance to try and evaluate finding it in the calendar.
Always happy to see a new video from you ❤❤❤
aww thank you! ❤

that extra £10 defo went to the packaging 🤣
true! ❤
I’d love if you did this but with the made by Mitchell advent calendar. He’s releasing a 6 day, 12 day and 25 day. They are being released on 6th November at 5pm on TikTok 💚
Would you be allowed to do a ‘spicy’ advent calendar unboxing on UA-cam? 🤔 just cause my work does one and it’s pretty cool 😂
That would be fun & I'm here for it 😂
best time of yearrrr💕💕
❤❤❤
Heyy, could you maybe do the essence and catrice advent calenders too?🥰
Oh, Just from the fact they included the squirt lip gloss I'm already more impressed than previous years- These boxes always felt very much like an intro into mac, where if you're buying it you probably already love mac so will have 90% of the products!
I'm probably speaking wayyyy too soon though....
Update: I spoke too soon.
Your make up turned out lovely. You're very beautiful ♡
aw thank you! ❤
I love that eyeshadow color on you
thank you! ❤
I would luv to see some swatches!
Yes been back and watched all your older videos ❤❤
❤❤❤
Love the xmas videos always ny favs since the begging love to you all xxx
aw thank you!! ❤

Ooh I love this series so much!! ❤
yay thank you! ❤
My favourite type of video ❤
yayyy! ❤
Ngl I get rabid waiting for your advent videos :') I love themmmm
haha thank you!! ❤
Would you do a video on Charlotte Tilbury’s advent calendar as well?
You have saved me a fortune. Thanks
I love watching the advent calendar reviews so much, never ever bought any myself though! 😂💓
glad you like watching them! ❤
I think the lipstick shades are warm vs cold shades; they lack variety, but it is the 'everyone can find something for them' strategy.

Lip liners again, just cold and warm shades.
ahh i see!! ❤
Unless they normally retail the minis, it costs them probably the same of the regular size
Yeah! I love your unboxing videos ❤
thank youuuu! ❤
I watch you unbox this every year and it always convinces me not to buy it😂
That crayon eyeliner is rubbish, never owned something so smudgy. but the macstack mascara is next level😍
I don't think I've ever noticed before but Sophie, your lips looked like they already had some colour on them before you put everything on. You have a very pretty natural lip colour. 🤗
aw thank you!! ❤
This was fun but I need swatches!! I’m surprised they weren’t included, I’d far prefer swatches instead of product pics
Yayyyyy another video makes my day
❤❤❤
🤣🤣jetwash 😹
You have a discreet and wicked sense of humour and sarcasm ❤
Lovely Sophie and so super pretty❣️
haha thank you so much ❤
Can you do the made by Mitchel advent and beauty crop please x
Ps still hate Mac for all their animal testing 😅😂 rubbish as always!!
Please do the Marks and Spencer’s oneeeeee. ❤
I actually think this is a good deal if you like the lip stick colors.
please do plouise advert calendar pleaseeew❤
Enjoyed watching it
Hoping you'll do the PLouise one it looks interesting and from what I've seen from last year one of the few that was worth the money? Just my opinion. Love you advent series thank you ❤
I pre-ordered it! should be arriving in November ❤
Yessss my favorite videos❤❤❤❤
thank youuuu ❤
You should get a mylee advent calendar its not soo much make up more nail type products
From all of the money this company makes, they could have easily done full items or multiples of the minis in one box. WOW!!!
I saw a revolve one at my local drug store!! I was surprised. It was $80 Canadian. But it always says everything you get on the back? Soooooo
You have a very pleasant voice. You could record audiobooks, especially bedtime stories for children.
aw thank you! ❤
For real tho, why does it feel like you've just started this series? I remember the first one like yesterday but it was what? Back in 2017 or something like that? Just shows how long I've been around ❤❤
I know!! it's been so many years now ❤
I miss the cheap advent calendar videos of full face 😁
Also Mac literally have all colours under the sun, yet each year it seems they only do nudes. Like stick a nice plum purple or a mermaid blue/green, a hot pink in there - don't have to be all crazy colours put at least 1 or 2!
I have yet to see one Advent Calendar unboxing that didn't seem like a rip off. I always have hope. You would think they would become extra creative one year. The mascara looks great. They should have swapped a lipstick for a blush.
i agree!! not sure why they never add a blush ❤
I usually agree but the catrice and technic ones don't look too bad this year and aren't overpriced
Well that's a interesting design to the packaging
Haha I was looking forward to your reaction to day 24!
hahah its v cool ❤
I'm late watching today lol, pizza n film 1st. Love this series, can't wait until November when the rest arrive🎉. This was ok as ling as you need lots of lipsticks lol. Love your vids xx💄🖤💜
thank you so much ❤
Love this video!
Ill happily pay for the products you won't use!❤
thank you!! ❤
hate glitter, but that one looked really nice! wont see me earing it though haha.

you have to try the p louise one
Ive pre-ordered it :) ❤️

yeah I agree! ❤
Soooo.... worth it?
