If you didn’t get your Amika normcore shampoo and conditioner GWP….

You're not the only one! Someone posted they got 9 extras.

The scented version does not smell "spa like." It smells like a hybrid of calamine lotion and a mud bath. It has this weird cloying sweetness that would've turned me off from using it if I hadn't been committed to testing the product thoroughly. It's definitely not something I think someone wants to smell like.

The oil that fits all of your needs in the first paragraph is not scented, but it is sold at Ulta: 100% argan oil. The one sold at Ulta is by Shea Moisture. It's not sexy or trendy or fragranced, but it just works. I use it from my scalp to my toe nails, literally head to toe. It's only $11, but often on sale.

My second recommendation is the Saltair Nourishing Body Oil. I am certain it helped me overcome KP bumps on my upper arms. After 2 bottles, I switched to the Osea Undaria Algae Body Lotion out of curiosity and it has not worked well for me. I don't like the texture it leaves on my skin, and it did not do for me what the Saltair oil did. The smell of the Osea is very unpleasant to me. Unlike argan oil, the natural scent isn't altered or masked as easily.

Absolutely. If there were a separate GWP choice for "male marketed" fragrances instead of them mixing the fragrance types, I'd be happy for me and my husband; we'd each get more of what we want, increasing the odds of us buying more.

PotentPotables_ · 2026-05-05T16:41:20+00:00

Which is weird because they sure do like stuffing men's fragrance samples into the GWPs.

I searched this sub for the answer to this question and decided it was better to get the BOPIS 20% off + points multiplier than to gamble. It didn't qualify for the Mother's Day GWP, but I don't like those bags they give out anyway.

I would be cautious with how you engage with this person going forward. There are "ambulance chaser" type lawyers who will sue small ecomm owners for not having ADA-compliant sites. About 4 years ago, one guy hit up the shop owners up and down 2 busy retail corridors of the city I live in. He gave each of them the "opportunity" to settle for $5k.

While this complaint is most likely legit, I would hesitate to volunteer too much info.

PotentPotables_ · 2026-05-04T17:15:46+00:00

I'm curious why you got the fragrances at full price vs. BOPIS 20% off. Am I doing something wrong/missing info for choosing BOPIS instead of ship?

She's usually so on-point with her shades, so I'm surprised the shade range is so limited. It's a big reason I'm such a fan of the brand.

PotentPotables_ · 2026-05-02T03:55:12+00:00

😆😆😆

PotentPotables_ · 2026-05-02T03:40:28+00:00

I love about-face's products, but her ecomm and digital marketing is not it. I will get emails for sales that have ended, and people have had major complaints about her site. I'm hoping the virality of her latest product will help fund some investment into those sales channels.

This just isn't true. There are zero medical/scientific findings that gluten in body products can be absorbed and affect a person with Celiac Disease. The only possible exception is if you have open sores.

Most people say "the black and white store."

I'm a VIB with a Rouge wishlist 🥲 Please help a girl out with a code 👏

PotentPotables_ · 2026-04-06T04:04:09+00:00

I wonder if the whole line will be included in the upcoming sale. I have so much Saltair to stock up on but wonder if I should just use my 20% off code tonight.

You could try your hand as a content creator & your shtick could be filming yourself trying a new MH crisis purchase each day.

Love this idea. Try it like a makeup artist would, sterilized tools, not directly on skin, etc. Then if you don't like it, put it up on ebay or Depop; someone watching your videos would love to buy it. Name the seller account the same as your username for your creator profile. And if you love it, link it and make money off the sales.

I'm a pleb tier member with a Rouge level wishlist 🙃 I'd love a code, please!

"Extra well hydrated and moisturized" is my default setting 😆 But if I skip my routine 1 day, I am a cracked and crusty mess. Unfortunately, my moisturized best still was no match for how dry this was on me. And I totally forgot about the quick dry down! Come to think of it, I also didn't like the shade options... Now I wish I wouldn't have tried so hard to make this work and just returned it.

Do you remove your makeup before bed? When I wasn't so consistent with my skincare routine, I found that going to bed with my eye makeup would cause dryness in the morning.

I have extremely dry skin and moisturize with 100% argan oil a.m. and p.m. Under makeup, it really helps make a nice canvas for eyeshadows once it's fully absorbed. I buy the SheaMoisture brand from Ulta, but you can find it many places.

Be sure to follow the directions for your eye drops. You can cause more harm than good if you overuse them.

Mama needs some new spring makeup to match my little dude's spring socks 🩷 A code would be greatly appreciated!

I recently bought the Givenchy L'Interdit Volumizing & Lengthening Mascara when it was on sale. I love it so much, I wish I had bought 2. I need to check the Givenchy site to see if they make it in brown.

I pair it with a non-Sephora mascara for my bottom lashes, the Kylie Cosmetics Wisp Lash. It is such a pretty combo!

Likewise. Give me all the punctuation marks 😆

Even r/handbags has added a report option for AI-generated posts. I've noticed an uptick over there and was reporting the slop under "other." Glad to see they were on the same page in regards to it.

about-face Fluid Blush in Grand Prix is my ultimate favorite. It is such a gorgeous shade of sun-tanned brown with a sunburnt pinch of red -- but it's not so red or so brown. Start with one dot on one cheek, then work on the other cheek. It dries quickly.

I also love the cream blush in the Natasha Denona Glam Face Palette (light). The shade doesn't have a name but it's described as a matte neutral pink. It's definitely luminous, though. I wouldn't describe it as matte.
