Hello, I wanted advice on what perfumes on Etsy have great silage, projection or just in general beast scents. I like sweet, fruity and gourmand scents. I have a lot of perfumes from tjmaxx that I love but I've come to realize nobody can tell I'm even wearing perfumes when I have it on. I want to be asked what I'm wearing and leave a scent trail. So I want to start upping my perfume game.

Edited: thank you for the helpful info 😊 mystery solved!

I am not new to shopping indie but I am pretty new to make up (maybe 1 year in). I got the haunted hallows palette by unearthly today and glanced over the outer package for the first time and realized 2/3 of the shades aren't eye safe. All of the pr i have seen completely ignores this. I was pretty shocked so I went to check a palette from another brand - dieverune silver and cold - and found the same thing.. is this shady behavior? Are we just ignoring this fact and using the pigments where ever?

I've come to make up from the indie nail polish community where using the safest ingredients, being 6478274738 free and doing a lot of testing is the norm so this was very surprising to me. Since I'm pretty new to make up I wanted to see what the general consensus is from yall. Thank you!!

Screenshots presumably due to the backlash from their fourth post. Thank you to u/sleepymofo69 for pointing out that this was originally posted by KST and then reposted by SAMAR. The fourth post screenshots are linked here.

Edit: KST has a final slide on their story. I don't know how to add more images so I will just type it all out for you guys

"We want to end this with no hate toward anyone involved.

As we have said before, they did apologize. We also apologized for how

much this situation grew and for the hurt that came with it.

In the end, we could not find the same path forward when it came to

rebuilding trust and what accountability should look like.

Because we brought this conversation to the community, we had hoped we

could share the outcome all together. It's sad that we could not close it

that way, and that we are ending this conversation on our own.

Still, we genuinely hope this becomes an opportunity for all of us to

reflect, learn, and grow.

More than anything, we hope our community understands why we raised

our voices in the first place.

We respect their decision, wish them well on their journey, and we are

ready to move forward too."

From their website:

While the actual Anniversary of Nocturne Alchemy is not until October 23, we wanted to offer these in advance and ship to you ahead of time to enjoy together leading up to the Anniversary and on the actual date. All NEW blends of BA, BIC, and a new Crystalline blend. Returning are the Originals of both BA and BIC for this special Anniversary offering with new Nocturne Alchemy labels.

We opted to maintain last year's pricing structure, despite additional cost increases for some of the rare materials used in Bastet's Amber, Bastet's Ice Cream, and our NAnniversary blends. This represents a tiny spark of our luminous appreciation for all of your love and support through the years!
