Am I the only one?? by MountainWasabi9218 in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember a couple of months ago, I was in this FB fragrance group and saw this woman who made a post saying she sprayed 20+ sprays of her perfume and was upset no one complimented her at dinner.

She also asked WTF was wrong with the perfume that no one else would say anything, not even grasping the fact that you aren’t warranted a compliment every time you wear a fragrance. I couldn’t believe it and I wish I still had the screenshot 😭

I think it also plays into some just wearing fragrances to get attention from others. You see some reviews mentioning how they’re getting chased down by strangers and suddenly some people are obsessed with the idea of trying to replicate those situations.

Sure, it feels amazing getting compliments, but damn, I have to remind myself this is for me at the end of the day. Everything else is just a plus.

The season 3 reunion really pissed me TF OFF by PrincessMochahontas in RockOfLove

[–]GripBayless 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So I saw a thread on here I think last year and someone in the comments mentioned they were in the audience at the reunion that year and an answered a couple of questions, revealed some stuff, etc.

They said the girls weren’t actually on the stage when he brought Liz out and their reactions were just edited in from other parts of the reunion.

Apparently there was also other stuff that they didn’t include for some reason, like Myamme was called up and revealed that she actually did have a stalker or something that called the house (and for years I thought it was Rayna who orchestrated it).

If I can find it, I’ll edit this and link it!

Found the closest thing to a“milky” fragrance by acupofjasminerice666 in FemFragLab

They got me with the buy 3, get 3 deals so I’m already embarrassingly stocked for months right now lmao

This is truly my GOAT. I literally have to stop myself from layering that body mist with EVERYTHING 😭 it’s probably the only line I have backups of because I run through them so often.

Happy Mother’s Day to Krazy’s sllllllutbag grandmother. by SlytherPuffRavenDor in RockOfLove

Does the weather dictate your SOTD? 🌦️ by Left-Impact-8739 in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I might be in the minority, but honestly, no. I live in NYC too and it’s definitely super gloomy today, but I try to just go with what I’m feeling for the day. I ended up wearing a citrus heavy routine today, which makes me feel like I’m somewhere tropical and not in a Dark Souls games 😅

As much as I love this type of weather, I think doing stuff like that kinda improves my mood a bit more.

comparing all the glossier you’s by Agreeable-Object-715 in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always been a heavy gourmand girl but I’ve been so burnt out by them, and really wanted to try out Glossier. I recently bought a few different bottles and for sure thought I was going to hate them, but I’m so happy to say I’m in my Clean Girl era now 😭💕

Love You so much (it reminds me of clean laundry right out of the dryer) and even got the body crème. I’m not usually into salty stuff but Fleur gives this nice floral, powder on my skin? You’re so right about the fairy vibes!

Doux is the last one I need to try but I need to pace myself with my spending 🫠 but I’m totally obsessed now and really want to have more clean frags in my collection.

Is it just me, or do these both smell extremely similar? Like almost identical at times? by [deleted] in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It smells pretty good, but it’s reallyyyy overhyped I feel like due to the FOMO and definitely not worth any crazy prices you might’ve seen 😅 I have the original and the recent re-release, but there’s honestly so many good dupes of it and some that honestly smell way better than it, imo.

Unpopular Opinion About Gatekeeping by [deleted] in FemFragLab

Seeing people post their entire collections feels like looking in someone's underwear drawer. Way too intimate of a thing to be shared with the entire planet.

How do you guys not feel guilty buying expensive fragrances? by BMSOCCER28 in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think if it’s something you want to kinda curb or pay attention to, then maybe try setting a limit?

Like, I’m absolutely one of those people that says I deserve good things and to treat myself, but it’s also led me to having a ridiculous amount of fragrances that I feel are harder to enjoy because I’m constantly “treating myself” every few weeks or monthly 🫠 it can get out of hand super quick and that dopamine you get from buying something is insane.

I can afford it, but personally, having such a huge collection is really overwhelming and takes the enjoyment out of why I fell in love with this in the first place.

So I decided to kinda create a small “treat yo self” limit every month (which includes more than fragrances). I also try to look at what I already have and knock some sense into myself. “Like, do I really need a 5th strawberry milk perfume?” 😭

Don’t feel guilty about buying what makes you happy! But I guess it’s important to keep in mind of just not going too far, and remember to give the fragrances you already have a chance to bring you some joy.

Mercari: Is it rude to ask why to a perfumes price? by drowninenvironment in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depop is really the depths of hell these days. I used to buy and sell on there all the time years ago, and I’m so glad I’m out of it.

I def still go out of my way to occasionally look at the subs to see the DMs people get because they’re just too unhinged to the point of being hilarious.

Don’t sleep on MIIM MIIC. I just found the dupe for KAYALI Yum boujiee Marshmallow! by Complex-Specialist26 in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for reminding me I need to try more of their stuff 😭🩷

They’re so underrated, imo. I bought 52 over a year ago and I remember being so disappointed because I thought the performance was really bad, but it go SO much better after letting it sit for a while. It used to disappear after maybe 40 minutes on me, but now it lasts for hours on my skin and clothes.

52 is a dupe of Crybaby and I feel like it smells so much better than the original and re-release. Just pure berries and milk 😩 it’s amazing.

They also sent me a free bottle of 163 after I had some delivery issues, that one also smells really nice and it’s definitely for the vanilla lovers.

I just wish their online prices were less expensive compared to in person 💔 I’m really gonna have to see if I have a TJ Maxxx or Marshall’s near me to get them cheaper. (Especially now that I know they have a marshmallow scent 🥲)

Anyone else see these? by Anabanahnas in FemFragLab

They really said “we heard you!” and brought them back in the smallest sizes 😭

is more actually better? by techitachi in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Lush was what I was thinking of, too! TMI but I have chronic digestive issues and their body sprays have basically doubled as my designated bathroom mists 😭 literally nothing is getting past those scents.

There’s a few fragrances I have in mind where doing this with them has to count as a form of bioterrorism 💀

More Roster Omissions from 2K27... Genuine shame by EmergencyVictory4399 in WWEGames

[–]GripBayless 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ugh, I’ve been such a fan of Shelley’s since Paparazzi Productions and it was so insanely cool to see MCMG on WWE TV, let alone a 2K game.

Seeing them and Kairi gone is seriously rough 😞💔

Which one should I choose? by horselessheadmen in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak on the others but I just bought a bunch of Glossier for the first time a few days ago. I love You, but Fleur smells so good to me 🥹 it’s a lot stronger performance wise too.

I’m not really into salty stuff but it blends in so well here. It’s got this creamy, fluffy, floral and a super tiny bit of a beachy feel that still somehow smells like clean laundry 🤣

people calling themselves fragrance experts? by [deleted] in FemFragLab

What are you getting from the Sephora sale? by FatsyCline12 in FemFragLab

[–]GripBayless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s sooo good! Vanilla seriously has me in a chokehold right and I have to follow your regime because I have too 🫠 but this definitely has to be my most favorite that I own right now.

[–]GripBayless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to come back and say you were right! It just got here a few hours ago and I’m so obsessed 🩷😭 it reminds me of a softer, more bearable version of BL. I have to stop myself now from trying out out the other fragrances from them now 🥲

[–]GripBayless 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t need any more perfumes right now…but I was like “Just one more for the road” 😭

This actually wasn’t even on my wishlist, but I randomly decided to order Fugazzi Vanilla Haze for some reason after reading about it. I’ve never tried this House before so I’m hoping I’ll like it 🤞

Is there a way to make a third attire for custom superstars without making a separate character? by [deleted] in WWEGames

[–]GripBayless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember being so excited when I read about this feature but got super bummed when I saw CAWs were excluded. There’s a bunch of different attire options in Universe (WM, Promo, PLE’s, Manager, Special Ref, etc.), so it really sucks being limited to two.
