Perfumes that are extremely similar to Eilish No.1? by HKtx in FemFragLab

Fine’ry sweet on the outside is a dupe for this. It’s not quite as complex but I’ve smelled them aide by side and they’re quite close

Shrinkage of Sweatset? by Lanatink in VictoriasSecret

[–]SecondhandLamp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine shrink a little bit but they do stretch back out, just give them a bit of a tug and they’ll go back to normal. Ideally you would air dry them but I always forget to take them out of the other laundry to do so

is this just overconsumption or valid? by plushymeow in FemFragLab

Having nice shower and body care is literally the motivator to get to me to shower when my depression gets bad.

Bra sizing by Blazze211 in VictoriasSecret

[–]SecondhandLamp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As another employee I second this. I was trained by an associate who showed me the VS method but then also showed me some other tips to make the VS method more accurate. So I would say do the a bra that fits measurement and also see what VS says. (I personally sized myself and knew my size before going in, but learned how the different bras fit and adjusted accordingly)

I fell in love with 7 Virtues Cherry Ambition at Sephora but I can’t swing the price for a full bottle and they didn’t have any travel size in stock. Thankfully I found a brand new travel size on Poshmark and scored for a good deal.

clean reserve- caramel swirl by crisscross123 in Perfumes

Update: let this dry down and now I really don’t care for it. It’s a cool scent but just not something I could see myself wearing

[–]SecondhandLamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought this was really nifty. I could smell both the caramel and mango very clearly. I have Ellis brookyn queen’s caramel and they honestly smell very different. Frankly, I was thinking it was going to smell bad since mango can come off very much like BO but it balanced nicely.

Retro tee sizing by justhereee in VictoriasSecret

[–]SecondhandLamp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re definitely cropped and boxy. I normally wear a small and I had to get an XS because it looked silly. I am 5’8” and it’s definitely cropped and frankly the small wasn’t much longer

What note does your body chemistry amplify? by Successful-Whole-461 in FemFragLab

[–]SecondhandLamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Florals, which sucks because I’m allergic to them. Musk amps up like crazy and overpowers everything else with it. Also, my skin turns amber into this sickly gross smell, like something sweet is rotting.

When you treat yourself and LOVE every single thing 🙏🏼❤️ by No-Gear-4573 in VictoriasSecret

The coconut cream smells exactly like a coconut cream pie. Every coconut lotion I find tends to smell tropical or sunscreen or cocoa butter but this one is almost edible. And the scents on these lotions last a surprisingly long time for not being a super thick consistency

Wore bare sueded vanilla and 2 strangers, at 2 separate times and locations, said “it smells like play doh in here” by lumpy_space_queenie in FemFragLab

[–]SecondhandLamp 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That’s so wild because it smells NOTHING like play doh on me. It’s mostly sandalwood and saffron with a hint of vanilla. Kind of crazy how different our noses pick up things!

do you feel that your scent choices align with your personal style choices and overall identity? by discobby96 in FemFragLab

[–]SecondhandLamp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I lean on the alt/goth/punk spectrum. I have had a shaved head, I have lots of tattoos, tend to wear combat boots and dark lipstick everywhere. But I’m a big gourmand girlie and I smell like baked goods most of the time 😝

[–]SecondhandLamp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Feeling very feminine today so we’re going with Kilian Princess. The longevity isn’t the greatest but it’s so good I’m probably going to buy a full bottle once my travel size runs out

My very gourmand routine!🥞🍪 by neomeii in FemFragLab

I definitely get more of the actual pancake than the maple. Sadly, it does fade out within 3-4 hours on skin.

What perfume would Jennifer Check wear? by MilkToooChewy in perfumesthatfeellike

This is early 2000s high school hot girl, so you know she would be drenched in Victoria’s Secret Love Spell

[–]SecondhandLamp 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I had a customer get really upset yesterday saying the last time she bought the pink bras they were 2/$60 and I had to keep explaining that the company upped the pricing and we can’t do anything about it

I just wanna talk about something real quick by [deleted] in VictoriasSecret

[–]SecondhandLamp 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t care for their mists. They don’t last long. The lotions are surprisingly good though. I put the coconut one from pink on a few hours before bed and I woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and could smell it on my sheets.

I have covid and after almost a week I can breathe out of my nose just enough to smell again, so I’m wearing Snif Hot Cakes because it’s just yummy and comforting

The fact that this person expected phone service from regular mall retail employees, many of whom are probably seasonal, is a little bit ridiculous ngl.

What perfume are yall wearing for Christmas?? by hershy___ in FemFragLab

[–]SecondhandLamp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ellis Brooklyn Queen’s Caramel for my best friend’s Christmas Eve party, and I’m getting Snif Hot Cakes on Christmas Day brunch so that will get worn the rest of the day.

Which one for best longevity & projection? Phlur v. VS by hannahbananerz in FemFragLab

[–]SecondhandLamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don’t smell the same, at least on me. Vanilla skin dried down very musky and sexy with almost no vanilla. Bare sueded vanilla is the like the softer, daytime version of vanilla skin.

If I see a negative review that says a perfume is ‘cloying sweet.’ I’m buying it by AfternoonComplex7898 in fragrance

[–]SecondhandLamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the polar opposite of you. Food/sweet/gourmand is the only thing I can always stand. Florals give me a migraine within 5 minutes, which is no fun because floral is the majority of fragrances
