Haus of Gloi Spider Silk & Pumpkin Patch

Or That Time Mel Bought Stuff In A Swap And Promptly Forgot All About It.


Aw, man don't do that!  I'm writing them up right now!



This is really bad. I've been working my way through my rather large sample collection to A) work up a review of my BPAL imps and B) get rid of the ones that don't really work well or last long on me. In sorting through and reorganizing everything, I found two Haus of Gloi scents from last autumn that I don't remember getting, and in Pumpkin Patch's case, was still taped up from shipping. I'm guessing I got them in a swap sometime last winter and just forgot all about them.  I figure since the Fall collection is out now, and with Part 2 of the Halloween Release coming up on the 27th, I may as well throw these up real quick.

Summer LE Round Up feat. Arcana, Haus of Gloi, and sixteen92

I know it's a little late to be talking about summer scents.  Everyone is - yours truly included - all about that pumpkin spice, and the Fall/Halloween collections are coming out of the woodwork.  But, except for like three days this week, it's still been scorching hot and not Pumpkin and Apple and Resin Weather around here.   I've been going back and forth about even posting reviews on these three.   Then it went from Sweater In the Morning Weather back to I'm Sweating After Only 2 Minutes Of Driving With the Windows Down Weather.  And I also decided to do this so I can talk about My Awesome Customer Service Experiences.  AND I'm wearing Piscis Australis again today.  So you get Reviews About Summer Stuff.  Dealwithit.gif.

MLBB Smackdown

This. This is why I started a spreadsheet to keep track of my collection.  I went through a period this summer where I thought to myself, "Self, we don't really have any good indie My Lip But Better options.  I should pick one up."  I then proceeded to go overboard because I have a terrible memory.

First I put in a Ten Three Labs order because I was down to one salve stick, and running out would be a disaster.  At the last second, I added Dump Truck to my cart (which I'd been eyeing since it's release) and checked out before I could change my mind yet again.   And I promptly forgot all about it.  

THEN, I found out KaeQ's Color of the Month for August was Herbology.  As it was a lovely looking nude that didn't seem like it would wash me out, I knew I had to have it.  Of course they arrived on the same day.  And they looked so similar in the packaging it was like Freaky Friday up in here.  


To make it even worse, I'd picked up a few of Life's Entropy's new mattes earlier this month, and guess what?  Yup, there was a pinky brown in there too!   Clearly, I need to do a better job of A) updating my collection's spreadsheet and B) actually checking it before I order stuff.  Now that I'm overflowing with mlbb options, the question is:  What to do with all of them?  I know!  Let's have a good ol' fashioned Three Way Death Match to see who'll reign supreme!




It's gonna be a slobberknocker, King!



Buckle up kids, because Business is about to pick up!
