   The Dior one is pathetic 🥴

   You’re really selling those magic crystals to me – mowing the lawn, spending money and a massage! 😂
   New to your account and binge watching so many videos – I love your humour and really incredible information. The rants are amazing, haven’t stopped laughing 💗 – really put off the evil cleanser which shall not be named and the overpriced serum!

   I’m keeping my eye on the Lumene one – not as exciting as the multi brands but good value and I’ve tried their skincare by chance through random gifts and such…. and I realised I’m quite a fan. Might wait and see if it’s still around in a few months though, my spider senses tell me it might go on sale at feel unique if I long it out!

   Manipulating the sorting hat is the most Slytherin thing I have ever heard of.

   I was laughing along with you, but you got a full snort out of me at "PENCIL SHARPENER!"

   I like the L'occitane calendar because those hand creams are nice stocking stuffers for others. But I am not buying it this year.

   This was amazing thank you!! Such an informative video. I was tempted for Atelier Cologne and Armani, I don't think I will get it after all. Big hugs from Miami (a fellow peasant) 😊😘

    I actually will probably buy the elemis advent calendar. I pretty much love all their products… However every year the price reduces in January, so going to get it then. I never really buy Elemis, I just know them from getting them in gwps 😂

    Thank you, very helpful and I needed the giggle. Rituals 3d is a lovely calendar and I really like rituals. I love Espa and decleor brands but the all minis puts me off.

    Absolutely love your honesty, "magic crystals 🤣", "If it's not a full size I couldn't care less" 👏🏻 yes! I couldn't agree more 😁

    👍👍👍 Wonderful as always!!! Didn’t even realize there are so many this year, thank you for the hard work. I’ve always bought both mums l'occitane one for Xmas, but as you said way too many minis. They will be getting LF beauty chests! Looking forward to your yesstyle unboxing 🥰

    Thanks Renu! All passes for me, but I'm not a single brand fan. Thank you ☺️

    Opininions on the cult beauty sets launching soon that they posted on their Instagram ? I think it’s a shame the box wasn’t more money with more full sizes. Would love to hear what you think

    "Any other tat they haven't included "
    Tip do not be drinking your coffee and listening to Renu at the same time. Couldn't swallow laughing so much.
    You are a breath of fresh air.
    It cheers me up when I see you have posted makes no odds what the subject is about I will still watch.
    The amount of time and work that went into this is humongous, so appreciate it and enjoy your wit and honesty so much.

    Favourite you tuber.

    HI Renu hilarious video ! you made me laugh so much🤣 Do you subscribe to any of the beauty boxes?

    Milka J 5年 ago

    Peasants. Lol You're hilarious! I really want the 24 day Clarins one from Selfridges but the shipping for the EU countries is £15, which is a lot, so still debating…

    Wow this is a long one. Watched halfway. 😂 will have to continue later. Renu, I think Asos 24 days advent is sold out. I went back to the site to check on my order status and couldn't find the advent anymore, only left the 12 days and men advent. This year, advents just magically puff and dissapear so fast! 😆🤣. Is there any other advents you will be getting?? I was thinking hard abt Skinstore one, but just don't know if i shd. My husband saw my LF beauty chests and asked if i am opening a beauty store. I didnt tell him i have 3 more coming 😂

    First I love your videos, your humor and intelligence 💕💕 Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into analyzing all these (and the multi brans) advent calendars. Since I live in Iceland I have to take into consideration whether there is a shipping possibility and the added cost with that so since it is 2020 and we unfortunately have Icelandic Króna that is dropping like crazy I think I will aim at the possibilities I will have in my own country. We have a L’Occitane store and Body shop (unfortunately not Rituals since that is my favorite) I have already bought L’Occitane despite small sizes (call me mad but I am going to spend 50-100£ on upgrading it by myself by buying things I am interested in (even some full sizes) and adding them or replace them with other items like some of the items I am very familiar with or not interested in that I can use for gifts instead 🙈🤪) Than Lancome coughed my attention and you speak fairly well about it so I might get that for skincare, and than to call it quit there is one cosmetic store here that does really good calendars with nice brands and some full sizes that I am going to have as my multi brand calendar, so I am in the end going to treat myself with 3 calendars since it has been such an awful year for me (as for you ❤️) so I deserve it I tell myself 😅😅

    I purchased the small Rituals calendar because I wanted to try the brand. There isn't a store within a 1000 miles. I also absolutely love the packaging! It has already arrived too. I am still waiting on the YesStyle calendar to arrive though. I probably won't buy any more beauty advent calendars unless they go on sale, if even that.

    Another video by Renu, yay! Love your rants, love love love your humor & I snorted a few times too.
    Question: what do you think about Clinique AC? It's on sale where I live & goes at 65 euros now which is way less than £90. I was going to make a decision based on your review actually, haha. If you have an opinion on it, please please let me know 🙏

    Died under the magic crystal rant 😂
    I always end up not justfying the cost of the single brand one's. Especially when you take into account that there's gotta be some products out of 24 that you are not gonna use. There is however almost always some that goes on sale when we hit December and January. I got the rituals one I january 75% off. That's a bargain and worth it.

    Thank you so much for putting so much work into your videos!

    Hey Renu, hope you're well? I tried to post a comment earlier, today , but not sure if it posted as having a few issues with You Tube, but I loved your video , sorry I'm late, though, but this was the perfect chill out video earlier, after a big clean up operation in our house. I was laughing so much at your wonderful wicked sense of humour , my boyfriend was wondering what was causing me to laugh out loud, so hysterically , today I was just like, that's Renu, telling it like it is, about abysmal advent calendar offerings, she doesn't hold back, she's brilliant . You really are a star in my eyes, because I value your opinions, I trust what you are saying and I know from you, what not to spend my money on, and products that I would get the most value out of, but honestly your humour is priceless and a breath of fresh air in these uncertain times . xx

    I personally love the Dior advent calendars tho i don't use half the stuff because the packaging always makes me extremely happy. I look at it as purchasing a Dior bag for a fraction of the price as it always makes it a great accent interior piece and its so satisfying looking at it on my shelf haha I'm a proponent of if something makes you happy it's definetly worth it. Anyways happy holidays in advance 💓

    Thank you 🙏🏻
    Your content is absolutely perfect. I can’t even imagine how much time you put into this research. I want you to know that we appreciate this information.

    I’m now a sub, I’ve made my purchases thru your links and I hope it brings more than $12 to you this year!!!!

    So much love from across the pond ❤️👍

    I don't buy single brand calendars, I personally think they are wayyyy overpriced this year. Lets talk about Dior…RIDICULOUS, in my personal opinion. By the way I just got the pip box in yesterday, if you would like a pict of the contents just let me know and I can shoot you an email with the booklet that came with it.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to do this!!! So informative by breaking it down by full sizes, especially when so much of the minis can be obtained for free at stores 🙂

    If I was ever going to spend £300+ on an advent calendar, it would probably be diptyque as their candles are amazing and 11 different ones is pretty good! (I don’t have £300 to waste on candles though lol) Armani is pretty good too, but Charlotte tilbury one is boring! The only thing I like is the packaging!

    I hope you are sitting down when you read this! Estee Lauder released New 33 Beauty Essentials. A $455 Value!

    For $75 with a $45 purchase. They call it a "blockbuster" deal. There are 1 face and 2 eyeshadow palettes.

    AND THEY COUNT EACH PAN AS ONE OF THE 33 ITEMS! The unmitigated GALL of that. I. Just. Cannot.

    Thanks for this video, I had lots of laugh here 😁 I'm actually considering Rituals 3D calendar, I don't need any more body care products, but I do like the brand a lot. I wish they do some kind of discovery set with products from all lines, e.g. set of shower foams in all fragrance lines.

    For the nail polish addicts I recommend Ciate advent calendar. I had it for three years and the only reason I wouldn't get it now is that I have tons of nail polishes and not much time to actually paint nails (I'm a mum of baby and toddler). My favourite nail polish brands are OPI and China Glaze, but I don't like OPI mini bottles, I always struggle to use those mini brushes. On the other hand Ciate mini sizes bottles have really good brushes and each year the colour selection is very good.
