Olivia Ponton says she has 50/50 expensive taste—and she definitely knows herself well . From claiming jewelry is her thing, but loving the cheaper necklace, to being a setting spray girly until she dies (and she sprays that setting spray like a pro ), the self-proclaimed lip gloss lover is in for some surprises. Watch as the model and influencer tackles the ultimate bougie test while tasting what she thinks are bougie shaped cheese crackers and tequila that according to her, smells like rubbing alcohol.

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
