In the inaugural episode of her new YouTube series “Let’s Unpack,” influencer Raele Altano opens a PR package from the cosmetics brand Billion Dollar Beauty. She introduces the series as a space separate from Instagram and TikTok to showcase brand goodies. The unboxing includes four main items: the Universal Brow Pencil, a 3‑pack of Deep Neutrals Eyeshadow Sticks, a charcoal‑infused Magnetic Brush Set, and the refillable magnetic Billion Dollar Box palette. Raele provides personal context about the cultural importance of brows for Armenian and Middle‑Eastern women, recounts her own eyebrow journey, and demonstrates the brow pencil’s universal shade and spoolie. She describes the eyeshadow sticks as crayon‑like, buildable, and brush‑free, highlighting the three shades (Metallic, Soft Nude, Bronze) and the built‑in smudge brush. The magnetic brush set’s five brushes feature antimicrobial charcoal‑infused bristles and attach magnetically to the box. The Billion Dollar Box is presented as a portable vanity with magnetic pans for eyeshadows, highlighter, and a mirror with a kickstand, aimed at busy creators, moms, and travelers. Raele thanks the brand, promises to share product links on Instagram and ShopMy, and closes the video encouraging viewers to enjoy the series.
Chapters
Let's unpack! So this is the first video of this series that I wanted to do. I get a ton of awesome packages and goodies from different brands, and I wanted to share them with you all in a space separate from Instagram or TikTok where I share some of my usual communication content. So I'm creating this new series on YouTube. So we're starting with our first package. It is from Billion Dollar Beauty. We're gonna open Oh, open the box quite literally. Oh my gosh, okay, so I'm glad I, I opened the box here, um, because there is no other packaging. It's just all of their good stuff that they sent. So Billion Dollar Beauty reached out to me and they wanted to send some of their stuff over, and they offered to, or they had me pick a few things that Seemed interesting to me. Billion Dollar Brows. This is their Universal Brow Pencil. We're starting with that. Fill in brows with this buildable creamy brow pencil. Now, I am Armenian. Brows are very important to us Armenian, Persian, Lebanese, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean girls, right? They're important for everybody, but I feel like especially for us. And I feel like it hits home because I personally wasn't able to do my eyebrows until I was like 14. My mom wouldn't let me touch them and they were getting very bushy. So once I was finally able to do them, I was hyper aware of how they looked. I've always done my own and I've had phases of super thin, pencil-thin eyebrows in like the early mid-2000s, and they were very thick, and I finally found a good happy medium with them, let's say. So I was so excited to try this product when I saw it on their list. It says works with most hair colors and skin tones. It's the pencil itself and then it has a little spoolie at the end for brushing. We'll open it. We go. And the color is— the color is— is there a color? There must be, right? Okay. No, it's a one-size color, I guess. Yeah. Universal brow pencil. Right. So here is the color. You want to take a look at what that looks like? So I will report back. We love a good brow pencil. Again, we're picky with our eyebrow products. So let's see how it is. Deep Neutrals Eyeshadow Sticks, 3-pack. So this is a 3— it's like a crayon eyeshadow. Brighten and enhance your eyes anywhere with this Deep Neutrals Eyeshadow Stick Trio. What I love about eyeshadows like these is that you can build on them, right? Like you can go from day to night and they're kind of foolproof. Like you don't need a brush and you don't need the perfect application of the eyeshadow. You can just kind of Dab a little bit on, smudge it a bit, and you're good to go. And you can— it's precise enough where you can do like the bottom lash line too for a little extra oomph. And the colors that I got are Metallic, Soft Nude, and Bronze. And does it come with a brush? Let's see. Maybe there's a brush on the other side. Ooh, these colors are nice. Oh yeah, there is like a little smudge brush on the end. That's amazing. Look at these colors! Look at that. Love that. Very excited to try these. And the brushes are on the other side. Amazing. Oh my gosh, they sent me so many good things. Okay, so this is the— zoned out for a second. This is the Magnetic Brush Set. It says charcoal infused, and I know that's talking about the brushes. So powder brush, eyebrow brush, spoolie brush, blending brush, precision brush. So there are 5 brushes in this bad boy. Charcoal-infused synthetic bristles for an antimicrobial effect. Magnetic strip attaches to BDB box. Let me see this one. Okay, so I think— oh, here we go, here we go, this is it. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Okay, got it. Billion Dollar Box included. So this is the last item within their package, and it's basically vanity on the go. That's literally what it says on the back here. And you have the box itself, you have pop-in magnetic pans, you can also refill it. So as products are done, you can refill it, and then these brushes pop onto the box itself. Love that. That is great for busy— yeah, see, magnetic base and mirror with a kickstand. That's amazing. Let me see if I can open it. I love that. Like I was saying, it's great for moms who are on the go, women who work and travel a lot. Oh, this one's tough. I don't want to ruin the packaging because I want to try to get a picture of it later. No, okay, I have to tear this just a little bit. This is genius! Look at this. And then this is the back. There we go. Okay, so this has a little stand so you can prop up the mirror itself. This is the magnetic, so you put the brushes Cute. This is the brushes that I opened before. And then where is it? Where is it? Oh yeah, okay. So on the side here you have all of the 3 eyeshadows and the highlighter. So it's the Moon eyeshadow, Shimmer eyeshadow, and a Mystic highlighter that you can also pop in, include in here, and have on the go for whenever you need. And I'm sure they have other pieces too that are magnetic, right? Like a blush or a bronzer that you can pop in here and have on the go. This is amazing, especially also just for me, for being a content creator, being a mom, needing an on-the-go touch-up. I love that. And these brushes are the perfect size, perfect size for pretty much anything. You don't need to have a separate case for them. They just literally stuck right onto that magnetic case. Look at this. Love, love, love. Thank you so much, Billion Dollar Beauty. I will include links to all of these on my Instagram and on my ShopMy. I'm so excited to try this. Thank you so much, and I hope you enjoyed this first video of Let's Unpack.
