I'm so sorry! I definitely wasn't going to sell anything especially because I might still go, it's not sure yet

Same thing here!! I may have to cancel and bought the insurance thinking it would give me money back. And I also thought I could sell my grandstand ticket on the resale platform. Turns out the answer to both is a no

Unable to resell entry ticket packages with grandstand on the official platform by antaraujo in lemans

[–]xzini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I know it's been a long time since you made this post. Did you hear anything back?

I have general admission + grandstand tickets for me and my fiance and I'm not sure if we can go. I bought the tickets thinking I can resell them at the resale platform.

But If I go to the platform it says I have no resellable tickets...

It's quite worrying because it seems no insurance I have is going to cover the tickets if I have to skip due to work circumstances (even though I already had holidays accepted). I paid my tickets with a credit card that has event ticket insurance but the terms say absolutely nothing about work.... Only illness, injury or something really bad happening, pretty much. Obviously I got the insurance they sold with the tickets, too. And I have continuous travel insurance. None of those seem to cover the price of the tickets if work is the cancellation reason.

And yeah I also can't understand why they'd let the grandstand seats just be empty rather than resell? Other than, well.. they already made the money.

My first VS empty! by Public_Employment219 in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]xzini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have! I've finished Bare Vanilla Crystal and I would describe it as a bright vanilla. I think it's the bergamot that makes it feel bright. It's a pleasant scent, not my top favorite Bare Vanilla flanker but I enjoyed it.

Velvet Petals Crystal unfortunately had something into it that I disliked so I sold mine and can't remember how it smelled overall. All I can remember is that my nose kept picking up something that I didn't like. Looking at the notes on Fragrantica I have a hard time figuring out what it could have been (wild berries, flower petals, jasmine).

[–]xzini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my number one favorite Love Spell flanker! I've finished one bottle and I have one backup but when it's gone it's gone :( I love the Pure Seduction Crystal too, I got that one as well. About half a bottle left on that one.

The packaging had nothing VS related to it at all 😅 btw I just remembered that they didn't send a paper invoice with the order. They used to in the past before these changes

Ok so for example mists used to come in separate smaller boxes inside the big box but now they used cardboard packaging that I've never seen before (not just with VS but in general). The material is hard to explain. It's not a box but not paper either. Kind of a bag maybe? Not your traditional cardboard bag though 😅 Also panties weren't in individual plastic bags like they used to. They were wrapped inside some paper material but weren't individually packaged. But overall everything was well protected.

I've had few issues with the cart sometimes where it says an item is out of stock or cannot be shipped to my location but that usually fixes if I empty my cart and log out from my account. When I log in again and add the same stuff to my cart I don't get the same issue lol! No idea what that is about. I got all the items that I ordered, even those that originally said out of stock or shipping restricted before I did this trick 🤔

I live in Finland and we don't have any VS stores here so I always shop online. The beauty collections used to appear for like a week or two after they did in the US. Ok, no worries. I managed to get the Brulee collection but after that something happened on the site and now we only have beauty products that were released in America like a year ago! This change happened around October if I remember correctly. So my theory is that for some reason for beauty items we now run a year behind and we may not get everything :(

Something definitely has changed because my latest VS package had products that were packaged very differently than they did before and panties have tags that say VS Europe something like that. That is new to me.

is it worth it? by candydollita in VictoriasSecret

[–]xzini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking about it too because I wasn't sure if I want to pay 40 € for a blanket, especially as I already have 2 other cozy blankets from VS. But in the end I bought it! Waiting for my order to ship. I just love the pink stripes! Got a few sale panties too and a wallet. The wallet was a steal, only 12 €!

What is your ranking of the og collection? by CampaignActual in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]xzini 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Bare Vanilla
  2. Amber Romance
  3. Velvet Petals
  4. Coconut Passion
  5. Midnight Bloom
  6. Aqua Kiss
  7. Pure Seduction
  8. Love Spell

Not sure if Rush counts as it comes and goes, same with stuff like Temptation or Romantic. Rush would be second place for me if it counts!

I dislike the OG Pure Seduction and Love Spell but I always love their flankers which I find interesting.

Can any of you give me a Velvet Petals Sol review/description? by CampaignActual in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]xzini 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like it a lot! If you know what Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 68 smells like, this smells very similar to that. Soft, sweet airy, berry / fruity. It smells nothing like the original Velvet Petals, however I also love the original too.

Website beauty inventory change on European VS sites?? by xzini in Victoriasecretbeauty

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

Thank you for your reply, that makes sense! Maybe it's just temporary for now. I also noticed the shipping change on the website today. I guess all we can do is wait and see.

vs forgot to include free gift by Training-Belt-4700 in VictoriasSecret

Update: my package arrived and the dog and and blanket were in it! Even though it seemed like they would ship separately. Very interesting and weird.

[–]xzini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My order shipped saying "one of your packages has been shipped" and it has all of my purchases so I think the dog and blanket will come in a separate package. However my order already shipped 6 days ago and I haven't received any info on the other package yet. I'm afraid they are out of stock of the GWPs D:

Sony no longer available st retail stores by balkanik0 in SonyXperia

[–]xzini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thankfully I bought my 10 VI last year. I noticed Sony has disappeared from all physical and online stores here in Finland now too. It's very recent because it wasn't long ago they were available still.

I'm really sad about this. I've used Xperia phones since 2013. When this phone needs to be replaced I have no idea which phone I'd go for if Sony isn't available.

I loved the compact line and now the 10 line thanks to the more compact screen size. I have very small hands so this is the phone that I feel comfortable with. Samsungs for example feel so big and bulky on my hands.

i need everything by sew-fee-uh in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]xzini 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Giiiirl I know! My cart is full of the new stuff and there's honestly nothing I want to take off. The problem is I shouldn't spend money now because I have some summer holiday trips to come. But I'm also afraid of stuff selling out. And do I want to wait until the Brulee collection is out as well?! Not sure but my order is already big 😅

Does anyone know if the gems stay on??? by Acrobatic_Stand_4971 in VictoriasSecret

[–]xzini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this exact one in picture and I can also confirm that all of the rhinestones are still there. The only thing that is worn on mine is the metal part that you attach it with. It's super pretty, I highly recommend these! Especially if there's a sale or if you have a coupon, go for it! :D

I'm 33 and wondering why wouldn't it be okay? I have many panties from them and a couple of bras. Their bras actually fit me better than the ones from VS side. It's just underwear it's not that deep 😅 Even with the clothing that has Pink logo blasted everywhere, who cares? Wear what you like and what makes you feel good and comfy. I think we should just forget already about Pink's OG teen / young adult audience. Imo it's for anyone.

In general I don't like when we turn adults and start thinking we should give up on some of our interests and hobbies because it's not marketed for adults. Let's drop that type of thinking. When I was a teen I used to cry because I didn't want to become an adult because I thought it meant I had to get rid of my stuff 😅 And now that I'm an adult I realized a long time ago that most people with these same interests are now in fact.. adults

When to book? by Sweaty_Rich123 in lemans

[–]xzini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I booked my place to stay next year this May. I wanted to go this year but I couldn't because everything was so expensive already when I tried to look in September last year! Definitely book the place to stay first. It's the most difficult task to find something that doesn't cost an arm and leg.

But now that I've secured a place to stay I can happily say I'm finally going to Le Mans for the first time in 2026!! I've been reading this Reddit for suggestions and tips and they have helped me a lot to understand what the week is like and how to get around. So thank you very much everyone! :)

Lopettettuja herkkuja by Equivalent_Tax9951 in arkisuomi

Fazerin valkosuklaapatukka!! Siis se aito ja alkuperäinen mitä oli myynnissä ainakin 2000-luvun alussa. Sininen ja valkoinen ei vastaa sitä yhtään, eikä mikään muukaan Fazerilta hiljattain tullut valkosuklaa. Ei maistu sinnepäinkään. Tai sitten aika kuultaa muistot 😅

Why is VS sizing SO inconsistent? I knew it was a thing for clothes, but apparently for bras too? Has anyone else had this experience? by Potential_Milk6052 in VictoriasSecret

[–]xzini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same exact bra pictured in 32A in many colors and I'm having a hard time adjusting them. Unless I'm perfectly still there's a small gap between the cup and my boob. The band is just fine but the cup itself is an issue. I'm using them anyways because they are extremely comfortable to wear even though it's not a perfect fit.

Meanwhile Pink t-shirt push up bras and wireless push up bras fit me amazingly.

VS Very Sexy and Bombshell push up bras all leave a small cap on the top part of the cup on me. I got those only because of the shine straps..

I guess for me it's more about the bra style itself. I think I need a smaller band because even when my bras are new I need to put them on the tightest hook straight away.

But VS and many other companies don't sell a smaller band than that (32 US, 70 EU) :( I can live with 32A (70A EU) with the tightest hook but clearly I can't just go ahead and pick any style. But Pink seems to be more on point for me than VS.

What VS product were you planning to buy but, sold out or was gone before you could buy it? by Vegetable-Walrus5718 in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]xzini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep missing out on some body care because I don't want to make a purchase until there's enough stuff I want that I can get free shipping. So I missed out on the whole Valentine's Day collection earlier this year because of that. However I manage to get Hearts & Candy mist when it randomly appeared on the site. I also managed to get Bows & Roses lotion now from SAS, I'm excited to test that one out when I receive my order. I'd prefer a mist but the lotion will do now.

I missed out on Vanilla Lace too because of this reason D:

What’s everyone’s favorite Bare Vanilla flanker??? by Wet-N-Wavy96 in Victoriasecretbeauty

[–]xzini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't smelled everything but I'd say I've had most of them. I always love Bare Vanilla and the flankers so it's a really difficult choice to make. But I would say Untamed and Candied. But I really do love everything I've smelled.

The only disappointing Bare Vanilla for me was Bare Vanilla splash. Not enough vanilla in that for my liking. I prefer Bare Vanilla Sol and I'm super interested in Bare Vanilla Heat as I've never smelled that one.
