I went back to your Selfrides 2023 advent calendar video to refresh my memory on what the design was (it was a deep purple with sprinkles) and your wearing the same sweater as in this unboxing 😊
Ive just picked this up, Sat 2.45pm if anyone still wants one. Im going to save this and have throughout January as have bought some others too. Thought it would help with the january depression after the fun of christmas xx
Love your videos 😊 this year i restricted myself to two calendars, Harrods and cult beauty. I normally get the space nk and the selfridges one - problem is that I still have a drawer full of products from last year!!! Which is insane !! I felt this selfridges calendar didn’t wow me - with many products being stuff I’ve already tried or don’t need. Instead I spent the £500 that I would have spent on calendars on stuff I know I like - like a couple of new fragrances. I’ll probably get space nk and this one next year 🙃
I'm glad to hear that I'm not alone with many calendars😂..my fave this year is Harrods and Space NK...but Sephora is great and the best value for money Look Fantastic and M&S....
@@Mikawoy I got the Harrods and it was amazing! A Tom Ford lipstick!!! In a little Harrods bag! I have regret about not getting the Space NK one this year. But I got the Boots 12 days one which was all full size products - many of which I actually buy and use! I’ve just gone through every thing I know I am not going to use from this years/last years and going to make Xmas lucky bags for my sisters and my daughter xxx
This one is a miss for me. I was so excited based on last year’s, but there really aren’t enough products in here that get me excited, that I don’t already have, or that I’d actually use. My guess is there are so many fragrances because the markup is so big on those.
As mentioned on your Community Page post, perseverance is key. They were facing some site issues. Good Luck to anyone who is trying to get one of these great calendars! I like the "look"; it would definitely stand out in a calendar grouping for presentations. I also like how the drawers have built-in separators. Their content mix is good this year, especially the makeup. I believe this one is a great spend! Thank you, Karen, your efforts are appreciated! 🥰
Robb, I'm just curious, are you in the beauty business? You're very informative and you review the Advents like a professional. I look for your comments to see if the calendar is available in the US before checking for myself! Thank you for your information! Miss Boux is the best! ♥
@@dianabanana9474 Hi there Diana! Thank you, but, no. I listen to what Karen says, research it if I do a "What?", or I bother Karen with questions. I gift calendars to my wife, daughter, granddaughter and 2 sisters, it's important for me to get it right. And I agree, Karen is the best! Good Luck on your selections.
This is the best calendar so far! Besides the great products I especially love the chest style box. So reusable and beautiful. More and more calendars are doing this. I love the Space NK that I purchased this year but now wish I tried for this one. I can only afford one a year! Thanks so much for all these beautiful calendars you do on your channel. I'll rewatch them in December with Christmas music! Love ya! 💛💛💗💛💛
That Paula’s Choice booster was in Space NK last year, and I really liked it, definitely suited my dry skin. This is a pretty good calendar, if you like those perfumes, had too much haircare for my liking so didn’t choose it, but looks more fun when unboxed, thanks for showing.
Favourite so far for me was Harrods as I will use all of the products and already use the EFG serum and Clarins cream. I guess thats why we all prefer different calenders. Also have the Dior one just as an extra treat, although not best value money wise.
I would appreciate small boutiques more as they r keeping products cheap enough to be bought, such as nounou, and not praising highly expensive products where what is paid is only brand and marketing
Yeee!!! I just ordered online using your code. No issues with checkout. I hope you get a commission, Karen. Thank you for sharing! I love advent season but it hurts my wallet. 😂🎉
A fab calendar here. A few too many fragrances maybe. I've looked into their shipping, but it's just super cost prohibitive for me. Still a really lovely calendar though. Incredible products and they're quite different from a lot of the other products in similar value calendars this season.
I agree. Companies use the term sample for the box b/c they don’t want anyone to sell them. However, 8ml is definitely a travel size. Sample perfume sizes range between 1.5 and 3ml.
This was on my list and I got it as soon as it was possible...a second after I got notified 😅 I restricted myself and this was on the list I got this mainly it has more fragrances than others and they’re high quality perfumes Also I liked the Gisou, Issy Maya highlighter I always wanted their makeup products overall is not bad It was delayed for so long I almost nearly gave up, I put the money aside and I’m thinking shall I buy something else 🤔 Glad I stuck to it
I agree as well, even the packaging was underwhelming. Mustard yellow for Christmas? Just because they put a high price on something only means that. They priced it high hoping people would believe it was better quality.
The nou nou range has been in so many Liberty AC and GWP.. not really an exciting brand. This years selfridges AC has a nice mix of products, but could do without those patches. Still can’t beat last year’s AC. which had more full sizes and the price was lower too. Thanks for unboxing karen.
I hate to say this but I’m not very impressed with this years calendar. I was really looking forward to seeing the contents but unfortunately a miss for me 😢
I was Disappointed right from the get go. The last thing the package made me think of was Christmas. I really don't understand mustard yellow with hot pink crinkles for the holiday season.
It’s because selfridges main branding is Yellow. If you have been to an actual selfridges store you can see the sign itself or logo is plain selfridges with plain yellow background
@@MissBoux yeah, it's not easy to pronounce certain French words, even for French kids who are learning 😂 thank you for the unboxing! I suppose we'll also get a video on the beauty/skincare/hair sets Selfridge just released? I'll be looking forward to your opinion on them 😊
I went back to your Selfrides 2023 advent calendar video to refresh my memory on what the design was (it was a deep purple with sprinkles) and your wearing the same sweater as in this unboxing 😊
Back binge watching all the unboxings again 🙈🙈🤣🤣

Been waiting for this all day! 💃I'm looking forward to watch your top 5 or top 10 beauty calendars. 💃
That fenty lip gloss is beautiful
This is such a gorgeous Advent! Thank you, Karen! xx

AMAZING!! TFS Karen. This was super!!
That's a great Advent calendar!!!
Better than most of the calendars 👍 and such a nice box, which can be reused as a mini makeup drawer
This is the best calendar so far! Besides the great products I especially love the chest style box. So reusable and beautiful. More and more calendars are doing this.

I misses out on last years :( hopefully I can get this one...and the malin and goetz scents are amazing especially the dark rum 👍
It’s unbelievable how good Dark Rum smells! I got the candle in an advent calendar this year and I LoVe it
I like your sweater.
Great calendar!
I love that Neom candle 😊 so relaxing but different to other lavender candles.
Omg Karen, I didn't realise your subscribers had balloon to 20.2K. Congrates 🎉
After watching a bunch of the advent calendar videos, I’m convinced the ones from the UK are so much better than the ones from the US.
This is my favourite calendar this year 😍
That Paula’s Choice booster was in Space NK last year, and I really liked it, definitely suited my dry skin. This is a pretty good calendar, if you like those perfumes, had too much haircare for my liking so didn’t choose it, but looks more fun when unboxed, thanks for showing.
I love the content of this calendar
Really good this one x
oh! this is a good one!
Favourite so far for me was Harrods as I will use all of the products and already use the EFG serum and Clarins cream. I guess thats why we all prefer different calenders. Also have the Dior one just as an extra treat, although not best value money wise.
🤞I manage t get this one as I love all the contents and that box too 😍😍😍🤣 I’m a sucker for storage boxes 😂
That’s a good calendar, specially when I put two items in one box
Another great advent calendar ❤! I would love to see the Maybelline advent calendar. Hugs from Athens Greece ❤❤
Hi .. unfortunately not all the advents calendars are available in UK. ..like in Germany there are Douglas Advent calendars which I like
Nice calander 😍 thank you for the unboxing 🥰
That necklace is so pretty where is it from?
Great calendar.
Wow, I’ve been waiting for this one 😅😅
I love this, I bought it
I would appreciate small boutiques more as they r keeping products cheap enough to be bought, such as nounou, and not praising highly expensive products where what is paid is only brand and marketing
Yeee!!! I just ordered online using your code. No issues with checkout. I hope you get a commission, Karen. Thank you for sharing! I love advent season but it hurts my wallet. 😂🎉
Can you please share her code? Thanks.
@@Gabsbuzz I think I said code but I meant link. It’s just the link she provides in the description box.
Where can i buy this
With the amount of products u get I want to see a sorting organisation video or a collection video if possible 😊
Lovely calendar, was initially gutted it was sold out but I think I've accepted it haha. I'm desperate to see your Harvey Nichols Unboxing xx
It will come back in stock. Keep an eye out on the website
Not keen on this years. Last year they smashed it.
@taliamink5175 thank you, I've decided I don't want the selfridges advent anymore ❤xx
@@Mojito369yeah having now seen last year's, I'm glad I didn't get this year xx
@@user-io5uk9os6rwhat do you mean!?
A fab calendar here. A few too many fragrances maybe. I've looked into their shipping, but it's just super cost prohibitive for me. Still a really lovely calendar though. Incredible products and they're quite different from a lot of the other products in similar value calendars this season.
I was waiting for this for so long❤❤❤
Is this available for the rest of europe or just UK?
25:55 That scent is definitely not a sample; it's a 'gift' when someone has spent a lot of money in person!
I agree. Companies use the term sample for the box b/c they don’t want anyone to sell them. However, 8ml is definitely a travel size. Sample perfume sizes range between 1.5 and 3ml.
This was on my list and I got it as soon as it was possible...a second after I got notified 😅
I restricted myself and this was on the list
I got this mainly it has more fragrances than others and they’re high quality perfumes
Also I liked the Gisou, Issy Maya highlighter I always wanted their makeup products overall is not bad
It was delayed for so long I almost nearly gave up, I put the money aside and I’m thinking shall I buy something else 🤔
Glad I stuck to it
It’s available now!
I was so underwhelmed by this one. It's the worst premium one for me.
I agree with you 😢
I am rather disappointed
I agree as well, even the packaging was underwhelming. Mustard yellow for Christmas? Just because they put a high price on something only means that. They priced it high hoping people would believe it was better quality.
You may want to smell some coffee beans in between smelling the different fragrances, this may make it easier to get the past scent out of mind
Yes I did pick it up
Is it better than Sephora advent?
I prefer my cult beauty one but still would be very happy with it
The nou nou range has been in so many Liberty AC and GWP.. not really an exciting brand. This years selfridges AC has a nice mix of products, but could do without those patches. Still can’t beat last year’s AC. which had more full sizes and the price was lower too.
Thanks for unboxing karen.
Does this ship to America?
Yes
I hate to say this but I’m not very impressed with this years calendar. I was really looking forward to seeing the contents but unfortunately a miss for me 😢
Brown Thomas cancelled my order so looking for another, I don’t think this one is for me sadly 😢
Oo didn't know Paco Rabanne did makeup, nice eyeshadow palette!
I wanted this but it sold out 😢😢😢
I think it comes in and out of stock. That's what happened last year xx
I’m still waiting for Dior Calendar
Had the Davines hair conditioner and it was nice, but the tub was REALLY annoying and messy
4:19 that's Harry Styles brand
It sure beats Sephora's 2500 point calendar of crap.
No AB?
It’s ok but still prefer the space nk xx
Thumbs up for SpaceNK, comment below with an emoji for Selfridges

@@CookinWithJ Thanks Jordon. I'm from Canada.
I can't imagine a worse fragrance smell than cannabis🤢
It definitely doesn't sound appealing.....
The only attraction it will have will be the police! 😮
@@traceysolley7134 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, that’s definitely a smell I try to get away from!
She said it smelled fresh 🤷🏻♀️ I mean I find the wacky weed stinky but I hope it smells more like fresh cut spring grass 😂😂
Inbox the just my look it's 54.99 ATM worth 300 32 products 20 fullsizes it's a great calender noone is unboxing it
Glad I wasn’t able to get this, I just stick with my space nk calendar.
I am not wowed by it but it’s ok… won’t be buying though. Thanks for unboxing ❤
💕💜💕💜💕💜💕
I thought it was ok but it was to expensive it should be around 199 i think the sephora one is so much better
Except the patches, the calender is good but doesn't hold a candle to the last year's one.
Out of stock 😢
Isn’t it meant to look like the building, rather than a ‘package’?
They had my favourite calendar last year, but I don't love this year, quite far below cult, spake nk and even others for me
I’m pretty disappointed with it for it being Selfridges. Lots of things I wouldn’t use or be interested in 🥴
Cuir is French for leather, it's pronounced "queer" 😊
Thank you!! I pronounced it several ways and then thought I best not try 😂
@@MissBoux yeah, it's not easy to pronounce certain French words, even for French kids who are learning 😂 thank you for the unboxing! I suppose we'll also get a video on the beauty/skincare/hair sets Selfridge just released? I'll be looking forward to your opinion on them 😊
Sorry definitely a miss for me.
Of course it’s out of stock 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Did morphe go into bankruptcy
That's definitely the fragrance year and I hate it 😅😅😅
A bit disappointed with this year calendar....
Not an exciting box.
This is the best one!! Watch other expensive calendars! They are WOOORSEEE than ever
All advent calanders expensive for many of us
So I think no need much chemicals ,I only need home remedies which suits me 😅😅😅😅😅
Yuck to the smells, pot smell and rose, equally disgusting! 🤢
