Isabelle Fuhrman Sniffs Out the $139 vs. $1,150 Cowboy Boots | Expensive Taste Test | Cosmopolitan

  • 2 weeks ago
Isabelle Fuhrman is breaking a sweat playing #ExpensiveTasteTest, but she's hoping for the best! Watch as the actress nails which ‘Orphan’-inspired choker is pricier and sniffs out the leather in the $1,150 cowboy boots. From feeling the pressure to identify her red wines (and admitting sometimes cheaper wine is better ), to being sure she knows which tinted moisturizer she’s used before, will the items she's most confident about end up tricking her in the end?

'Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1' is now available to rent/purchase via VOD and will premiere on Max later this year.

00:00I totally Heath Ledger-ed her and sang to her.
00:02I was like, Julia, you're just too good to be true.
00:07Hi, I'm Isabelle Fuhrman,
00:08and I am playing Expensive Taste Test with Cosmo.
00:13I hope that I have expensive taste,
00:16but I also think I just like things
00:18that are not very expensive, but seem expensive.
00:22On a scale of Catherine Newton to Kristen Wiig,
00:25I feel like I might fall somewhere in between.
00:27I'm hoping for the best, but we'll see.
00:30["Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy"]
00:35We have some cowboy boots, and I can smell them from here.
00:40These are very gold and very shiny.
00:42These are definitely more of a
00:44Miley Cyrus hoedown-throwdown type of cowboy boot,
00:47circa Hannah Montana.
00:49These ones definitely seem more,
00:51these are softer, they have like a suede.
00:54These also, the smell from these is really strong.
00:57Like, you can smell the leather from here.
01:02And this one, this one doesn't smell like anything.
01:06It has a leather lining, but the inside is not.
01:10And I think the sole of the shoe is rubber
01:12and this is leather.
01:15I feel like, even though these are fabulous,
01:19these are the more expensive ones.
01:23Great.
01:24Yay!
01:25These are really cute.
01:28♪ Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba. ♪
01:32We have two different kinds of olives
01:34that seem to be a classic martini olives.
01:39These ones are much darker in color
01:42and these ones are much lighter.
01:43Okay, I'm gonna smell them.
01:46Very olive-y.
01:49More subtle.
01:50We're gonna squeeze them.
01:52Squeeze the olives.
01:53And I'm gonna start over here.
01:55These are very nice.
01:59I feel like a better olive is nicely salted
02:02but not too briny or acidic.
02:04And this doesn't feel very acidic.
02:06Now I'll try this one.
02:11I've actually never had an olive this color
02:13so that's what's throwing me off, I think.
02:15And this one tastes very subtle, too.
02:17Okay, now I'm gonna look at them.
02:20This is hard.
02:22The texture's better, though, in these.
02:24I'm gonna say these.
02:28I'm right, how good?
02:30I really like these, they're really good.
02:37Chokers inspired by orphans.
02:39I had custom ones for orphans.
02:41I have them from both movies.
02:43And when we were making the second movie,
02:44there was a whole panic because the archives
02:47at Warner Brothers did not have the original ribbons.
02:50And even though they told me not to take them
02:51when I was 10 years old, I took a pair.
02:55Okay, this choker right here.
02:58The flower and a little pearl.
03:01And we have this choker right here.
03:04So this choker has a heart with a vine around it.
03:08It's very romantic and dark and twisted.
03:10Definitely something I could see
03:13my character in Orphan wearing.
03:15This one's super cute.
03:16This one is soft.
03:18The lining underneath the ribbon
03:21is not as pleasant to the touch.
03:24It's a little grainy, a little rough.
03:28It's a good clasp though, I gotta say,
03:29a good quality clasp.
03:30But the metal is very, very light.
03:34And this is like, she's a little robust, this one.
03:37The lining of this is really soft and beautiful.
03:41A little like silky.
03:43It's also heavy.
03:44This is very heavy.
03:46It's definitely heavier.
03:47And then this has two clasps.
03:49So this puppy ain't going nowhere.
03:52It's just gonna stay on for the whole night.
03:56And this one definitely is a little more like,
03:59you know, saucy.
04:00So I feel like this one is the more expensive one.
04:06Girl knows her chokers.
04:07You worked with Julia Stiles on that movie.
04:09What was it like?
04:10First of all, when Julia Stiles was cast,
04:13I went back and watched all of my favorite movies
04:16from my childhood.
04:17You know, 10 Things I Hate About You
04:19and Save the Last Dance.
04:20And I've just been such a fan of hers for so many years.
04:23We really just bonded.
04:24And then after we did Orphan together,
04:27I just actually starred in her directorial debut,
04:30Wish You Were Here, which comes out next year.
04:33And when we did Wish You Were Here,
04:34we filmed in a stadium.
04:36And Julia was like directing on the field
04:38and we were getting ready in the stands
04:40with hair and makeup.
04:42And I totally Heath Ledger'd her and sang to her.
04:45I was like, Julia, you're just too good to be true.
04:49♪ Can't take my eyes off of you. ♪
04:53And she was like, stop it, stop it, stop it.
05:03Okay, this is sparkling water.
05:05This is something I drink a lot of.
05:07This one looks much more bubbly than this one.
05:10So you just start.
05:15It's really bubbly, which doesn't always mean
05:17that it's more expensive.
05:19A subtler bubble sometimes means that it's more expensive.
05:25This one definitely has a subtler bubble.
05:28I'm gonna remove the straws for a moment, actually.
05:31Cause I think this is affecting
05:32the effervescence of the water.
05:38Okay.
05:47Can I guess the type?
05:49This one came out of a plastic
05:51and this one came out of a glass bottle.
05:53This one's more expensive.
05:57Wow, yes!
06:05So we have two pairs of earrings here,
06:08both dangly variety.
06:11Oh, wow, those are different.
06:15These ones have a lot of little stones on them.
06:19These are very fun.
06:21And these have less, but these are, wow, these are heavier.
06:24Should we try them on?
06:24I feel like we should maybe try them on.
06:26Both of them have different clasps.
06:27This one has like a little plastic clasp,
06:32which might be a dead giveaway.
06:36What do you think?
06:38Feel light.
06:40This is much heavier.
06:42It's also heavier.
06:43Ooh, I really like these.
06:46I can feel the weight.
06:50I would say that these ones are the more expensive ones.
06:56Cool.
07:03Gouda makes me think of She's the Man.
07:08I like Gouda.
07:09My favorite's Gouda.
07:11Okay, well first off,
07:13they have a different color, both of them.
07:14This one is definitely a little more yellow in color.
07:19They say that when something like milk or butter is yellow,
07:24it's grass-fed, so it's more expensive,
07:27but I don't know.
07:27We're gonna try them and see.
07:32Delightful.
07:37That one's definitely has more personality.
07:41More personality doesn't always mean more expensive.
07:43Sometimes cheese can overcompensate
07:45and try and have more personality,
07:47so it can be more appreciated.
07:52This is definitely more subtle.
07:55So I feel like this is something
07:56that a lot of people would enjoy.
07:59But the texture is creamier on this one.
08:02I think this one's more expensive.
08:07Wow.
08:08I was really sweating on that one.
08:10Okay, cool.
08:14♪ Ba da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da ♪
08:17So we have two tinted moisturizers.
08:19Very different packaging.
08:21This is a plastic sort of packaging.
08:26Very light.
08:28And then there's this one, which is much heavier.
08:30It's got a glass packaging to it.
08:34Wow, it's a nice little
08:40well-made cap.
08:41This one's ready to party, too, though.
08:46We'll try them.
08:47I just don't...
08:48What if it, like, attacks me?
08:49Okay.
08:50There we go.
08:52So this one is very soft.
08:56It's tinted moisturizer, though.
08:57It's not a foundation.
08:59I feel like a real beauty influencer right now.
09:02You see the pigmentation?
09:04Really good color.
09:05Good coverage, it seems.
09:06Okay, we're gonna do the other one.
09:08Okay, we're gonna do the other one.
09:12This one just feels, like, fancy.
09:15Oh, wow.
09:19And then this one...
09:23More creamy?
09:25Kind of like the cheese.
09:26That was a dead giveaway on the cheese.
09:29They both have, like, a shine to them.
09:32But this one has a shine in it, and I feel like this is just shiny because it's waiting
09:36to be powdered.
09:37I'm gonna smell it.
09:38Oh, I actually know that smell.
09:41Yeah, this one's definitely more expensive.
09:47I'm wrong?
09:49No.
09:50I mean, my hand feels really, like, exponentially softer now than this one.
09:56And it could just be that now that I know it's more expensive, I'm gonna decide it's
10:00nicer.
10:06This is red wine.
10:08I have a lot of pressure riding on this because I have people in my life who really love red
10:13wine and have told me and taught me a lot about red wine.
10:16I'm hoping that it wasn't for nothing.
10:19So I'm gonna start by smelling it.
10:22Very fruity.
10:26This one's not as fruity.
10:32It has a little grapey to it.
10:34But that's also what wine is made of.
10:36All right, now we're gonna try it.
10:45I've had this before.
10:47I'm pretty sure.
10:48I think I know.
10:53This is much sweeter.
10:58Mmm.
10:59This is gonna be a hard one.
11:01Okay.
11:06I'm just gonna guess this one's more expensive.
11:11I'm wrong.
11:12I'm never gonna hear the end of this, but it's true.
11:14With wine, sometimes cheaper wine is just better.
11:17That's just a fact.
11:18So I got a six out of eight.
11:20I don't feel bad, but I don't feel as incredible as I was hoping I would feel.
11:25I'm pretty proud of myself.
11:27I'm still sweating.
11:29Thank you so much for watching me on Cosmo Expensive Taste Test.
11:33And go see my new movie, Horizon, an American Saga, Chapter 2, in theaters.
11:43I've watched these a lot.
11:59I've watched these a lot.
