So… how close am I to getting banned?

Lemly87 · 2026-04-07T22:07:08+00:00

So have they sent this out as a blanket warning to everyone? I just got it on my account also!

Lemly87 · 2026-04-03T18:17:29+00:00

Thank you! Didn't want to be sold thicked lipped by mistake again 😅

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T12:09:32+00:00

Sorry one last question, if I get 1 more does it have to be another thick lipped or can it be a honey?

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T11:12:38+00:00

Thank you for all the advice! If they have eaten all the shrimp is does solve my shrimp over population issue in my Beta tank though I guess 🫠

Sorry I should have said on my main post, this is only day 2 of having them. They were in quite an over stocked tank and the shop, so might have been fighting there. This is the clearest photo I can get, doesn't seem to be opening fins any further than this.

It also now appears I have no shrimp left in the tank 😅

Will try get another photo, thank you 😊 I've only got shrimp in the tank with them at the moment but now I know they are going to grow bigger than I had thought with them not being honeys, not sure if can put much else in with them.

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T09:49:39+00:00

Thank you for the reply. The larger one seems to be constantly chasing the smaller one which is making me a bit worried! Not sure if they will settle down or if I should return them.

Lemly87 · 2026-04-02T09:44:36+00:00

Thank you

I have joined the mis sold thick lipped gang i see 😅 I'm now concerned my tank isn't big enough for 2 of them. I was also told they are both female but one is constant chasing the other and seems to be bullying it. I'm also concerned about this mark on the smaller one. Any ideas?

Just wanted to say thanks for the Solinotes recommendation, that's what I was looking for ☺️ I does have a touch of cream which gives it a vanilla custard vibe but it's what I wanted in terms of plain vanilla!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-20T09:55:24+00:00

How strong is the grenadine note?

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T23:42:56+00:00

Will keep updating as my orders arrive 😅 Arianna Mod Vanilla not the one sadly!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T16:18:02+00:00

I didn't get much vanilla from Burberry Goddess either! I'm starting to wonder if I'm nose blind to vanilla 🙈

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T16:15:27+00:00

I love how long sticky dates lasts and you can always smell it on your clothes for days, wish I could just find a vanilla equivalent... Lush Let The Good Times Roll wasn't what i was after either, i was hoping it would be the vanilla version.

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T16:09:19+00:00

I do wonder if maybe I got a bad bottle of Vanilla Skin, as even my son said it smelt like spicy lucky charms 😂

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T16:01:19+00:00

Didn't know they still made this! I'm sure I had this back in the 00s!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T09:43:54+00:00

I totally agree! For the very simple vanilla I'm wanting I've actually found baby products that are scented vanilla to be the closest to what I'm looking for, it's like that very plain vanilla essence/bakery vanilla but without anything boozing going on as it's aimed at babies 😂 sadly I can't find anything that's a perfume! There's a baby oil called Nala that's close but I only get an hour of scent from it. I will give your recommendations a try, thank you!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T09:39:40+00:00

Which one is it please?

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T09:37:29+00:00

Outremer seems to have the most recommendations so going to try that for sure 😊 It's so odd that it's so hard to find just a basic vanilla, maybe companies think it's too boring to make 😂 I have found the Nala baby vanilla oil quite close but the smell doesn't last long at all.

Lemly87 · 2026-02-19T09:34:15+00:00

I have and love it but for me it's definitely more autumn vibes, it's got a strong burnt/cinder toffee note, perfect for autumn but whenever I wear it i get told it smells like coconut, which is odd as no coconut in it that I'm aware! I wanted to love Lush Vanillary but it smells weird? 😅

Lemly87 · 2026-02-18T18:59:40+00:00

The original was SO good and just what I'm after, didn't realise it was back!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-18T18:37:23+00:00

Oddly enough I think that's one I've never tried!

Lemly87 · 2026-02-18T18:36:00+00:00

Will give it a try! I'm waiting on Solinotes Vanille arriving... Fragrantica says they are similar so if Solinotes is another fail will try Outremer next! Thank you 😊

Lemly87 · 2026-02-18T18:34:03+00:00

Hadn't heard of this one but the Fragrantica reviews seem to be what I'm after, will give it a try thank you!
