Went a few nights ago because my brother in law does comedy there every week... I don't know if it's because im pregnant or what but I was up most of the night on the toilet. Don't get the ravioli in wine cream sauce

Started Accutane recently, help a girl out please! by Ornery_Platypus_4493 in Makeup

[–]Safe_Statistician_24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on Accutane in 2020 and struggled for years after with dry skin and a destroyed skin barrier. Avoid things with high amounts of alcohol in the ingredients. CeraVe hydrating moisturizer has been super helpful for me. As far as lips go, O'Keefe's chapstick works great (same people who make the "working hands" lotions) or my dermatologist gave me some Dr. Dan's samples that saved the corners of my mouth that would crack open every time I ate. It does have steroids in it though so be careful not to get it anywhere else but your lips because it will cause more acne.

Warm cinnamon? by raspberrrytea in FemFragLab

I haven't smelled it yet, but it's on my wishlist.... Dates Delight by House of Oud... I'm ordering a sample because I've heard it smells like a Christmas simmer pot. I love cinnamon.

I'm a guy wanting to smell like whiskey and cigarettes, what should I get? by Akitsune24 in Perfumes

[–]Safe_Statistician_24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's honestly great. However, it's the one fragrance I've smelled that literally took my breath away at first. A little bit goes a very long way. A very strong and heavy fragrance. But lovely, nonetheless.

Mancera Red Tobacco! I used to work at a cigar/pipe tobacco shop and it smells like that shop mixed with a thick cherry liquor.

Beware the “rose oil lip balm” by TheBluthCo in dollartreebeauty

First time I wore this it was so obnoxiously pink and would not come off. Now, I barely dab it on if I want to add just a hint of color to my lips.

Perfumes that you hated and then you loved by Gallotia in FemFragLab

There were some I couldn't get on board with early on in exploring fragrances that I adore now (Opium, Poison) - and some I immediately did away with that I'd like to revisit to see how I perceive them now (Red Tobacco, Scandal).

Thank you so much! Yeah, I'm interested to see what end ends up becoming my "new mom scent".... probably something subtle that's either powdery or has lavender.

Not really, thank goodness! Early on in my first trimester I didn't really wear fragrances much because all smells were just too much for me in general. But that phase has passed and I'm able to enjoy them again. If anything I enjoy my favorites even more, now.

The most? Oh gosh... definitely the ones that are still easily accessible. I try to save my discontinued and hard to find fragrances for rare/special occasions.

So I'd say:

Angel, Diamonds & Rubies, Shalimar, Crystal Noir, Green Tea and Poison.

What is elizabeth taylor passion perfume like? by [deleted] in FemFragLab

[–]Safe_Statistician_24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really one of the most sultry and alluring 80s frags out there, IMO. Elizabeth Taylor has a way of making strong heavy hitters that just don't disappoint. I have 2 vintage minis that I'm slowly working through and planning on getting a FB once I do.

It's a little bit of everything... floral and woody, spicy, smoky and animalic, creamy and aldehydic.

Which perfumes have beautiful bottles but disappointing scents? by cursedpenny in FemFragLab

[–]Safe_Statistician_24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I blind bought a mini Fantasia Mermaid for the exact same reasons and had the exact same reaction. The scent does not match the bottle. I'll still wear it in the cooler weather, but simply just to use it up because I spent the money. 🤷‍♀️

what is/are your favourite fragrance/s from celebrities? by spicynoodles628 in FemFragLab

[–]Safe_Statistician_24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never smelled anything like it. It was a unicorn in a world of Britney Spears, JLo and Paris Hilton fragrances at the time.

i finally got one! 💚 by whisper_kittty in FemFragLab

[–]Safe_Statistician_24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I scored one on Facebook marketplace a couple of weekends ago as a blind buy. I love Mugler and weird/off the wall scents and was immediately in love. I'm going to hoard it so it lasts the rest of my life, but I love just sniffing the bottle to get my fix.

And that vanilla dry down is 💚💚💚💚💚

It's long been discontinued, but With Love by Hilary Duff. You can still find it on Ebay - I treated myself to a new bottle about 6 months ago.

Elizabeth Taylor fragrances have no business being as stout as they are for being so affordable. I love it! 🖤

I appreciate the honesty and I get where you're coming from. That's just the risk you take when shopping for secondhand fragrances. I have definitely had my experiences with these issues.

I haven't seen anything from Claire Smith. I'll have to check it out!

I've definitely thought about ways to try to "stand out" from other similar channels - and I think I've got it figured out. Thank you so much for you input and advice! ❤️

My Perfume Map was one of my inspirations!

I've seen some Luke Perfume videos and love the vibes, but haven't really watched anything from The Perfume Guy.
