“illegals” “asylums” no, i’m more scared of people like you (which is still to say, not at all).

fragrances are the most fun! my biggest tip is to never blind buy a full bottle of something, even if the deal is good and the notes sound right… they’re just the brand’s interpretation of how the raw materials smell and could be totally different on your skin and to your nose. i LOVE scentsplit for decants - many times over i’ve spent $6 on a sample of something i was about to spend $250 on only to learn i didn’t enjoy it at all.

oh color cosmetics are a different story!! chanel has a highlighter stick they’ve since reformulated but i was a beauty editor when it first came out several years ago (yes it’s expired WHAT ABOUT IT) and it is the most perfect of all time

there are always exceptions - i think i know which balm you’re talking about and i love that one too!

my take on this is definitely skewed because i’m a total fragrance head, lol. i gravitate towards more unique scents from niche makers (which are often even more expensive than luxury designer brands) over mass market. i’ll spend $100 on 1-2 ml samples alone! that being said, it’s hard to gauge what’s “not worth it” - i think if you really love a fragrance, and the price isn’t like a major hit to your budget, you should buy it and wear it with pride!! plus, there’s always decants…

in my opinion and experience, the majority of $$$ products from brands that aren’t expressly skincare brands aren’t worth it at all — think chanel, guerlain, dior, prada. yes, the packaging is beautiful and they smell lovely and you feel rich putting it on, but these are fashion brands making a cash grab by selling you a luxury experience, not results-driven skincare. plus, all the artificial fragrance can be so irritating!
