  1/2 and oz for $300 is literally insane. It makes me feel like “is this a social experiment to push and see how much people will spend on goo for beauty”. I know I know that it may work.. but $300 for 1/2 an oz?! Idc if I have unlimited funds, that is insane to me

  You forget that it's UK calendars. No one here seen "deluxe" sized gifts with purchase. You'd be lucky to get a 1ml perfume sample or 5ml (one use) face cream😂

  One other thing to remember is most of these calendars stayed the same price as last year in base currency. It’s just that the dollar weakened against the pound, so the exchange rate made it more expensive for those buying outside of the UK

  Dr. Sturm is an orthopedic surgeon, not a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon. But  she definitely is cashing in on her name w her skincare line and the insane prices. I'm a licensed master esthetician and none of her stuff is worth it. In fact, most drugstore skincare is better and more effective. She's got quite the side hustle going on. Remember, very rarely does expensive equal quality in skincare. There's your esthy bestie tip of the day. ❤

  Just finishing the Selfridges unboxing and wanted to talk about the value/no value remark. Something i think is good to remember, specially because you are unboxing European calendars, is that our gifts with purchases here, are not the same as in the US. We don&apos;t have bags full of samples/deluxes or even full size products, for small values of purchase. Point perk items at Sephora means nothing to me, i would be surprised if it exists outside the US (maybe Canada?!). <br>I buy on Cult Beauty and they don&apos;t even give you free samples, no matter the amount of purchase. And when they have goodie bags as gwp, you have to spend a lot to qusalify for it. Sephora Portugal gives a 5 piece offer with more than 100€ purchase and when they say there&apos;s a full size in it, you can bet it&apos;s a Patchology eye mask 🙄<br>What i want to say is that for a lot of people, those not large sizes will add value and should not be desconsidered just because you are used to received them for free and expect that it&apos;s the normal. Because it&apos;s not and again, you&apos;re talking about European based companies with a US point of view. <br>Hope i explained myself in a good way, i just want to give a different perspective.<br>Back to the video ❤

  8 ML of perfume is NOT a gift with purchase size!!! 10 ml of Valentino Born in Roma is $43 Canadian. 8 ml is about 80 sprays of perfume. That’s pretty decent!
