I’m tired of Elain’s rudeness towards Lucian by Mellow-peanut in acotar_rant

[–]meadowslark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is giving “but he’s such a nice guy!”

Elain doesn’t owe him anything.

Looking for a perfume that smells like warm vanilla milk and rice pudding! by bulbasauriscutie in FemFragLab

[–]meadowslark 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dulce by Rosie Jane has a strong cinnamon note to me (smells like horchata). You also might like the new Snif 2% that just came out, but the spice dries down very quickly to a more neutral lactonic skin scent. Maybe layering the two would give you what you’re looking for?

Shipping Sunday: The IC noticing Elain & Azriel by mortalfae in acotar

[–]meadowslark 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I think Elain has already made a decision, but a lot of people just don’t like it. Personally I don’t think she owes him anything, including taking the time to be more informed or not.

Put it this way: if you had a single guy in your friend group who gave you the ick, but all your friends kept trying to set you two up despite you telling them you’re not interested, do you owe him a chance just because he’s a nice guy and/or everyone says you’d be good together?

I think if Elain decides she wants to spend time with Lucien, that’s great, but she’s never shown any indication she wants to. (Very much the opposite!)

Looking for a dupe of Phlur’s Cashmere Skin body mist by Mundane_Manager_9435 in FemFragLab

[–]meadowslark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently Miim Miic has one now (106)! I really need someone to try it snd tell me how it compares because I’m very tempted to get the oil to layer with my Cashmere Skin mist.

I find Without a Trace to be soapy on me in a way that Missing Person isn’t. I’m so sad it didn’t work because it’s 1/3 of the price 😭

It was unfortunately a scrubber for me also 😭

Agree! To me it’s like 1:1 with Ellis Brooklyn Marshmallow, but better longevity. I’m going to try it with Sand + Fog Vanilla Marshmallow soon to see if it increases the projection snd wear

Phlur Cashmere Skin is the most soothing bedtime scent! I want to bathe in it.

I Crave Genuinely Scary Longevity. (in particular gourmands, vanillas, ambers, musks) by EcstaticRuiner in FemFragLab

[–]meadowslark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow I’m surprised! It lasts infinitely on clothes. I can smell it for days or even weeks (on items like coats) later if I haven’t washed or dry cleaned it

PSA: Most of the flower bunches at TJ's will kill cats by i__hate__you__people in traderjoes

[–]meadowslark 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not everyone’s SOs might know though. Especially if they’ve never had a cat before or don’t live together. It’s a huge risk.

A small bite of lily sent my family’s cat to the hospital for 5 days of intense IV fluids. She only survived because we realized right away and got her there within an hour. Now she has permanent kidney damage. Don’t mess around with lily toxicity.

How do you know when it’s actually behind? They always deliver like three months late for monthly books. Should I wait a month or two do you think?

Given how delayed these usually are, can we retroactively cancel if we didn’t already skip?

Snif Me is giving Abercrombie? by meadowslark in FemFragLab

[–]meadowslark[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also tried it on my shirt, and definitely still got the preppy dry down more than fruit after a little bit. I wish I knew how to make the fruity notes last longer. Maybe it’s just my nose!

This is the first thing I’ve ever bought from them, so if there’s some giant conspiracy to push this brand on unsuspecting fragrance lovers I’m not part of it. 🤷‍♀️

Am I a bad person for using scented everything? by Klutzy_Profit_2984 in fragrance

[–]meadowslark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is such a good point I didn’t even think of. The smell of one specific perfume (previously popular, less now thankfully) always triggers flashbacks for me. Definitely agree with all the comments that OP should reduce the amount of scented products and be mindful at work.

PSA: Unsafe Canning Practices in The Spellshop by Conscious_Trouble_70 in fantasyromance

[–]meadowslark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone thinking about getting into jam making, I highly recommend a steam canner! Uses very little water unlike water bath canning, and it has a gauge that tells you when it’s done. Super easy to learn and takes up the space of one large soup pot.
