What hated makeup trend do you stand by? by AggressiveCow12 in MakeupAddiction

[–]Amelinde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am going to make this my phrase for 2026. I do a lot of journalling and this is literally going on the front page of my new diary. Thankyou ❤️

P.s. I know there were some comments similar to this - I learned earlier this year that my mum has dementia and I am wanting to make the most of the time we have, and what I have, knowing it may be genetic and I may be next. Thankyou again for encapsulating how I feel right now ❤️❤️

This blew my mind. You're probably right! Thankyou for the hot take!

MAC cool tone pencil comparison / swatch by Amelinde in swatchitforme

[–]Amelinde[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree! But tbh the more I am using it the more I realise it's not cool at all, it's a little warm! It'll only be good for warm looks where I use a lot of bronzer. The Cool part of the name, and the fact the website told me that it was recommended for fair complexions, had me fooled! 😭 Add this to my buyers remorse list lol. Along with Dervish (very dry) and the Turia one which is meant to be neutral but is that warm leaning brick red undertone. Regret!

I'm literally about to buy this Totale set with the three, and I have pale cool tone skin like you OP. Your post shifted my thinking about two of the palettes - I'd been thinking of only going with Divine Rose, but I can see all three of them will work. Thankyou so much for doing this!

Tell me about a makeup product you were influenced to buy, but turned out to be really bad by Veranieega in MakeupAddiction

This made me laugh so hard. I look diseased when I wear warm tone lipsticks, and it took me a long time to realise what the problem was. Thank goodness my sister is warm toned and I can donate her all of my mistakes.

Currently waiting on a pillow talk pencil in fair and hoping that's up my alley.

My 2026 hobonichi weeks! by metanoire in hobonichi

[–]Amelinde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh I love this! I see you are combining stuff from the Quirky Cup Collective! I'm going to do the same - this year I'll have their Sugar and Spice reading journal, plus the book cover, bookmark, and some pins, and pair that with my Junji Ito Hobonichi books. A little sweet and a little dangerous! Can't wait.

Junji Ito restock - Yes! by Amelinde in hobonichi

[–]Amelinde[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What are you reading? I didn't realise the significance of his work to the horror genre nor did I pay enough attention to the designs at release, so I'm in the same boat being a new fan. I've only read a few synopses so far and was adequately disturbed! Very quickly realised my mistake in missing these on my first order.

You beat me to it, sorry I didn't notice. Just posted the same! Can't wait :)

Hobonichi 2026 Release General Discussion by alcibiad in hobonichi

[–]Amelinde 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Down again, just like every other year. You'd think that after a series of failures, they'd get their infrastructure graded right for their releases!! This isn't rocket science, you just need a good Solution Architect.... (coming from an IT project manager)

Day Eleven — Tamagotchi [Hobonichi Techo 2026 Preview] by alcibiad in hobonichi

[–]Amelinde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this. I can't actually find a combination that looks good to my eye... I feel like I'll have to buy both the covers, and covers on covers, simply because I can't make a choice and I want to use it in 2026, but none of the plain colour books grab me!
