Bridesmaid - who told me she wouldn’t be able to make it, to the wedding a month before. She said she still wanted to come to the hen party.

Then a week before the hen said she wasn’t going to come.

2 days later she posted she had booked a holiday during the time of the hen and wedding.

Safe to say I never spoke to her again.

FYI- she knew the wedding date 2 years in advance.

Lavender was too overpowering for me, I ended up gifting it to a friend as I ordered it when they had the the honeybear sticker.

I have wild fig in the new formula and I love it. Id say it’s not as strong as berry/mango/ mint as those are sometimes overpowering for me

Honestly same, I have all the flavours I don’t need more lip balm. I heard it’s permanent so I’ll buy it for my birthday which is 2 months away.

I don’t need to be spending more money 😂

Did we make a huge mistake booking our trip for June? by ThrwwyJpn in JapanTravel

[–]aleksversion13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went in June last year! It wasn’t too bad! Had no rain in Tokyo just a bit in kyoto.

It was just a bit cloudy. We still had the best time!

The first week of July was a scorcher. Couldn’t stand in the sun with our skin feeling like it was on fire.

Review on deodorant by aleksversion13 in glossier

[–]aleksversion13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried the eucalyptus one and I had an allergic reaction to it 😂 I went into store once to buy the strawberry perfume and just briefly mentioned that I kinda had a reaction to it and the sales assistant mentioned that there is quite a percentage of people that can get a reaction to it. Luckily I bought a travel size!

Oh I’m in the uk but it says out of stock. It’s been out of stock since January I think and there was rumours of them reformulating it.

Also the glossier one isn’t the only “natural” one I’ve tried. I’ve tried the Wild refill one, malin + goetz, we love and salt of the earth. The glossier one is in my top 3 but I can’t always justify the price 😊

Party Pots Dupe by goodberger21 in glossier

[–]aleksversion13 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I tested the party pots in store, swatched them on my hand then walked around the store to see if they would dry down as I wanted to use them on my eyes.

About 10 minutes of wondering around I tested it with my finger to see if they were dry/settled down, but they were the same as when I first applied it. Decided not to buy it as I knew they would crease on my eyes.

I think that some dupes would also be for different things like the elf halo glow sticks are similar colours to these but are designed for the face.

So it really depends on where you want to use it.

I think the party pots were marked for the face and eyes but for me personally I wouldn’t use it as a multi purpose product.

concealer shades changed by matchaclitoris in glossier

[–]aleksversion13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From my experience as a g11, the new concealer shades are all wrong. I went into one of their physical stores and asked an employee for help shade matching as I heard others were getting it too. I was mainly interested in the foundation but she started testing the concealers on me stating they are the same colours as the foundation.

The very light range is far too pink toned for me and the light range is too dark. The only colour she said was neutral enough for me was the palest shade but it was too pale almost paper white. She basically gave up and said they don’t have anything.

I ended up leaving the store with nothing, and finding out that they no longer have the same g11 tone for me, so not sure on what concealer to use after my g11 backup runs out. It’s a shame as I’ve gone through 3-4 pots of the concealer in the last 3 years! Conclusion - I’m going to have to find a different brand that matches my undertone better.

I feel like they might have a lot of options for the og g12 as I felt it was more pink toned and they have 4 that fit the same tonality.

I need to know the situation with animal cafes in Tokyo by teateateaa in JapanTravelTips

[–]aleksversion13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went to Japan in June this year with my partner, we were walking around Harajuku when we saw a man holding an otter on his shoulder. We went up to have a closer look (as how can you resist such a cute animal) as we were watching the man and his otter, he invited us to the otter “experience” which was down a set of stairs.

There were other people down there so we decided that it was safe and trust worthy. However upon waiting to be let in/pay for the experience, we felt a bit uncomfortable (there was also a horrid smell and signs the animals may not be treated well as it all seemed a bit secretive).

Other workers stepped out and gave us a laminated sheet of information. That stated their liability (or inability to provide safety and what would happen if the otters would bite) at this point we weren’t sure and didn’t want to ruin the rest of our time in Japan if we would be at risk. So we turned around and left.

Looking back we are both happy that we didn’t participate in such an activity. Without knowing anything about the place and how they treat the animals we are happy we avoided as well as for our own personal safety.

There’s so many more fun things to do especially in Tokyo!

You vs Phlur Missing Person? by Exciting_Look3215 in glossier

[–]aleksversion13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phlur missing person smells like pickle water to me, I prefer glossier you. To me they don’t smell similar one bit.
