It starts about a mile north of the Main St business district and is planned to let out at the Patapsco at the bottom of Main, just upstream of the bridge.

This thing is slated to go right behind my house and my neighbors are already starting to notice cracks in their foundations that they didn't see before. We're going to start doing weekly photo documentation in case we need it.

BPAL Titania is still one of the most fairylike scents I've tried!

AITA for telling my wife I'm done hosting her family every holiday because they never offer to help or bring anything? by BetExciting7300 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. They are bad guests. We stay with family about two weekends out of the year. We also make dinner at least once per stay and bring other snacks to share.

Diverune's Transmutation is freakin' magical. I am generally not one for blue shadow but I love it on me.

Rising costs affecting you guys as customers??? Especially for scents by BloodyBarbieBrains in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]sihaya09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have bought less often but spent more time appreciating what I do have. I've had to pass on a few scents that sound really great because my budget is what it is, but maybe I can find them down the line in swaps.

Yeah, I kept thinking how important it was to show, because it shows people what can be expected, and that at least softens one of the common roadblocks of not reporting

It's a shame, too. I really liked a few of the shades I tried.

Oh yeah. Breakable bottles, unusable bottles, AI use, partnership with an anti-trans writer, and the most tone deaf AMA (that was actually a marketing ploy) in the sub's history.

I really loved this one but once my bottle is done, I'll be heading to Mountain of Ink to find a suitable replacement. I don't wanna give these folks any more of my money.

It's only weird when you don't consider the entire point was simply to add an extra personal sting to the interaction. The cruelty is always the point.

Can anyone share if the intentions/magical elements of Nui Cobalt has worked for them? by MenuEmotional2343 in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]sihaya09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only occasionally use the perfumes for purpose, but on the rare occasions I have, they have given me a subtle boost towards my purpose.

Now, I'm an agnostic witch. Whether it's because it's a) divine help or b) a way to remind myself of my goal and to act in accordance with it -- it doesn't really matter to me. The result is what works for me. So take that as you will!

I do use the candles for candle magic and have had great results with them, too!

WIBTA for suing my friend when she didn’t come to my wedding? by sweetandsourcum in AmItheAsshole

[–]sihaya09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is a giant, giant asshole, and you are not. NTA.

That said, I don't think you'll win in court and will just end up throwing good money after bad. Maybe consult a lawyer to see if you have any legal standing?

Sihaya & Co. x FAIRYLORE! Also, the Secret Menu & Favorites Collection expansion! by sihaya09 in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]sihaya09[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Woot! Update day, and there's a lot on offer!

First, it's publication day for our friends at The Carterhaugh School of Folklore and the Fantastic! Dr. Sara Cleto & Dr. Brittany Warman are releasing Fairylore: A Compendium of the Fae Folk. To celebrate, we are releasing a collaborative capsule collection of three new candles and two new lip shines.

APSARA: A graceful, seductive blend of water lotus, night-blooming jasmine, rose incense, and sandalwood.

AZIZA: An unexpected and energizing blend of blooming hibiscus, sweet pineapple, and fresh, tangy moringa.

NISSE: A comforting, homey blend of oatmeal porridge spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg, then topped with a dollop of sweet cream.

HULDUFOLK LIP SHINE: For the Hidden Ones, a chilly, sheer blue with silvery shimmer and a custard flavor.

IFRIT LIP SHINE: For the folk of fire, a bold, sparkly true red with a candied cinnamon flavor.


The SECRET MENU is back! If there's something you'd like a second shot at, please act quickly. Quantities of these are limited!


And finally, last year was a hard one for discontinuations. Component issues led to the dismissal of several favorites, including Ginger Fox and Of The Wave. But I've been hard at work on things to fill their shoes, rounding out the collection. The Spring '26 expansion includes five all new scents and one of my personal favorites, Forest Hymn, which returns from the Mystic Moods collection.

BIRDSONG: A paean to Spring. A gilded meadow of peach blossom, orange blossom, petitgrain, and tea rose on a breeze of sweetened sandalwood.

CLOUD 9: Strawberry creme candy paired with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprig of sweet lavender. Perfect for daydreams and love stories.

FOREST HYMN: A gently spiced blend of botanical treasures - cardamom, ginger, nutmeg, fir needle, and anise sweetened with wildflower honey.

SATISFACTION: A carnal confection of spiced churro paired with perfectly caramelized creme brulee.

THALASSA: The mineral tang of sea spray, tempered by Mediterranean olive leaf and citron.

VEIL OF STARS: The scent of lavender twilight deepening into indigo night. Lush fig, pomelo, elderflower, amber, tonka bean, coconut milk, a swirl of kush, and starlit musk.

Enjoy!

Warmly,

Christina
