00:00We're gonna start with this one.
00:07Jesus.
00:08Hello, my name is Olivia Ponton
00:10and I'm playing Expensive Taste Test with Cosmo.
00:14I think that I have 50-50 expensive taste.
00:17I like to spoil myself,
00:18but sometimes I feel like I can find a good product
00:20that gets the job done.
00:22Let's get started.
00:24♪ Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba da da da da da da da da da ♪
00:29Cheese crackers.
00:30It's good, cause I'm hungry right now.
00:32I have had both of these before.
00:34Do I know which one is more expensive?
00:36No.
00:37These ones are puff flavored,
00:41easily cracked.
00:43And our second option,
00:45looks like a healthy Dorito, honestly.
00:48Let's hear the crack.
00:49Oh, that's a nice crack.
00:51The texture, I feel like I can feel the flavoring
00:55on this one significantly more than I can feel it on this.
00:58This one, I believe, just has salt on it.
01:01I'm so hungry.
01:06This one has a really good smell, though.
01:07If I smelled these next to me,
01:08I would probably ask the person if I could have one.
01:11Option two.
01:14Kind of smells like cardboard, not gonna lie to you.
01:17Okay, the flavor's insane.
01:19They're super cheesy.
01:20It has a bit of a garlic taste now that I'm eating it.
01:24Option two.
01:32I don't like that one.
01:33If you look at the bowls realistically,
01:35this one is more full,
01:36but there's probably less product in it
01:38because they're empty.
01:39This one, opposite.
01:41So I think this one is a little bit more
01:44than this one, opposite.
01:45So I think this is the more expensive one,
01:48and this is not.
01:50But the shape is kind of throwing me off
01:52because that's a pretty bougie shape for a cracker.
01:54I'm gonna go with this is the more expensive one still.
01:59Really?
02:00What?
02:01What's up with bougie people liking weird shape things?
02:10I'm a lip gloss girlie,
02:11but these packaging don't look familiar to me.
02:15The first one.
02:16So I think the packaging is quite beautiful,
02:19but it's not chic.
02:20It's very cutesy, girly, poppy, if that makes any sense.
02:25The second one now.
02:27Okay, this is beautiful.
02:29This is my type of lip gloss.
02:30Very chic, very seamless.
02:32The packaging is quite simple.
02:34The color looks beautiful though.
02:36Can tell that it's a little sparkly, which I like.
02:39So we're gonna swatch this.
02:41ASMR.
02:45Wow.
02:47Nice.
02:49I love this.
02:50This is beautiful.
02:51Smells really good as well.
02:53Ooh, that could be a red flag
02:54because normally scented lip gloss is not as high quality.
02:59Maybe I'm wrong.
03:00Second one.
03:02The applicator's significantly smaller,
03:04which also is a red flag to me.
03:06Okay.
03:08This one's 10 times more sticky
03:10and almost has like the glumpier kind of lip gloss,
03:14which if that's your vibe, that's your vibe.
03:16Not my vibe.
03:19I personally like when my lip gloss is almost like a balm
03:23so that way I can wear it all day
03:25and not have my hair get stuck in it.
03:28I am gonna go with this one.
03:31I'm being the more expensive one.
03:32Just with the packaging and how it feels on the hands
03:35and the texture, this is the more expensive one.
03:41Yay!
03:48It's 100% tequila or vodka or some kind of alcohol
03:52because the glass is beautiful.
03:58It's tequila.
04:01Smells very strong, to be honest with you.
04:04They both smell like rubbing alcohol,
04:06but that's the beauty of it.
04:08This one does have a more lemony, lime smell.
04:14This one has more of like a,
04:16this is gonna sound disgusting,
04:17but when your apartment's really clean
04:19and it has that smell, it smells like that.
04:22Ew.
04:23Okay, we're gonna start with this one.
04:30It tastes like rubbing alcohol, to be honest with you.
04:34Ah, this is hard!
04:36Okay, we're gonna try the second one out
04:38because maybe that will help lock in my decision.
04:46That is not expensive, in my opinion.
04:49I could be wrong, but it does very much give rubbing alcohol,
04:52which I think most alcohols do.
04:55It does go down pretty smooth,
04:56but I do think that there is a bit of an aftertaste,
04:58which I don't think most tequilas,
05:00if they are high quality, do.
05:02I think that this is the more expensive one.
05:06No way!
05:08Are you serious?
05:09What?
05:11Wait, this is more expensive?
05:17Jesus.
05:25Okay, next we have some jewelry.
05:28Okay, the first one is a little bird's head
05:33with some diamonds, it looks like, maybe some crystals,
05:36as well as on the top of the bird's head.
05:39We have some more crystals.
05:43Jewelry is my thing.
05:44I feel like I'm very good at telling
05:46if jewelry is good quality or not.
05:48The bird's eyes are filled with emeralds,
05:51which I feel like isn't the most normal thing.
05:53That's why that makes me lean towards expensive.
05:59And the second one we have is a little bird's head
06:03with some diamonds, as well as on the top of the bird's head.
06:06I feel like I'm very good at telling
06:08if jewelry is good quality or not.
06:10The next one we have is a cute, smaller chain.
06:16Ooh, it's minimalistic, chic.
06:20Since the chain is thinner and there's nothing on the plate,
06:22it does give more of a simplistic look,
06:26but also, you could probably find this at Target.
06:28So the chain is significantly lighter,
06:30obviously, because it's thin.
06:33Incorrect.
06:34What?
06:35Are you serious?
06:36I would buy this one, and I would wear it all of the time.
06:45Okay, next we have seltzers, starting with this one.
06:50Bubble level,
06:53minimal.
06:55Okay.
06:56Consistency, water.
06:59Bubble level,
07:01less.
07:04This one smells significantly more than this one.
07:09This one smells like ginger ale.
07:12This one smells like lemon.
07:15Okay.
07:20I know what this is.
07:21I've had this before.
07:22It's really good.
07:23I'm not gonna stop.
07:26Okay.
07:27I feel like it would be expensive
07:29because I feel like moms drink this.
07:31I think it's a very mom drink.
07:32My mom loves these things.
07:35Number two.
07:40Okay.
07:41This one has more of like a ginger berry flavor to it.
07:45I do think this one is cheaper.
07:47Why?
07:48Gut feeling.
07:50They're both the same flavor.
07:51They're both the same flavor.
07:53Interesting.
07:54I'm gonna go with this one being more expensive
07:56because I feel like the flavor,
07:58if it is packaged as like a lemon flavor,
08:00I would say this is more of a lemon flavor
08:03than this one is.
08:08No way.
08:09Really?
08:18Purses.
08:19Okay, so my initial thoughts are the crystal sizes.
08:23I almost automatically wanna go with this one,
08:25but it could be this because of the larger size.
08:29I think this one's heavier,
08:31but I think with the metal that's holding in the crystals,
08:35I feel like an expensive purse wouldn't have that.
08:38The inside.
08:41Looking at the chain.
08:46Okay.
08:47Option one.
08:49I'm trying to see what the detailing on the inside.
08:53This one's more of like a satin finish,
08:55so I feel like it might be this one.
09:04I'm gonna go with this one as the more expensive one.
09:09Yes!
09:16Okay, two palettes.
09:18The first one.
09:21Okay, we're gonna test out the product to see pigmentation.
09:26Wow.
09:28Oh, wow.
09:29Okay.
09:30The pigmentation is super, super prominent,
09:32so that does make me think it's a little bit more
09:34on the expensive side,
09:36but unfortunately I have received products
09:38that are high quality, but not high pigmentation.
09:41Now we're gonna go with...
09:45Wow.
09:48Okay, you know what?
09:48It's pigmented.
09:50It's kind of blending with the other sparkly color,
09:52so that does kind of make me think it could be the less one.
09:57This is hard.
09:58Second one.
09:59My initial thoughts on this palette
10:01is that the packaging is super chic cuts,
10:04so that does off the bat make me think
10:06it's the more expensive one, but let's try it out.
10:12Okay.
10:13It feels very like velvety,
10:15which could be a good thing.
10:18The other one felt more powder-based,
10:21but this one's more velvet-based.
10:23Wow.
10:24Okay.
10:25I think I'm gonna go with this one
10:27for being the most expensive palette.
10:31Yay!
10:38Next thing that we have are setting sprays,
10:40which I can never do my makeup without.
10:42I'm a Charlotte Tilbury setting spray girly until I die,
10:46so this is gonna be interesting.
10:48We have the first one.
10:50Bottle.
10:51Pretty simple.
10:52It is heavy.
10:54It smells flowery, almost like a rosé.
11:00Interesting.
11:05Okay, it's lightweight.
11:06I don't love lightweight one.
11:07I like when it really sticks onto my face,
11:09then I'm like drenched in it,
11:10so I have to sit here for like 10 minutes letting it dry
11:13because I think that's how your makeup gets locked in.
11:17Next one.
11:18Different sprays.
11:21This one has more bubbles in it,
11:22and this one is more water consistency.
11:29I like that spray better.
11:31Love that spray.
11:32More powerful.
11:33We're gonna lock the moisture in.
11:40No scent.
11:42Green flag.
11:47I love the way that this sprays a little bit more.
11:49It's more aggressive,
11:50and I feel like it really is gonna lock in my makeup.
11:54Problem with my face.
11:58I think this one is more expensive,
12:00but I think this is a better product.
12:06Really?
12:08Well, I got a four out of eight,
12:09which honestly, I'm pretty disappointed in myself.
12:11I thought I would have a better score,
12:13but it proves to you that less expensive things
12:17could be higher quality.
12:19Thank you for watching me here
12:20on Expensive Taste Tests with Cosmo.
