Looking for the perfect blue lippie

Hi all!

I am currently on the hunt for a blue lipstick that is similar in shade to mana samas blue. It isn't really disclosed what colour he actually used and all that's about is speculation, of course this was the 80s so whatever he used is pretty obviously now discontinued. (Unless it was a custom mix.)

I've seen many a blues but they're typically extremely dark and many brands don't seem to stray far away from safe colours.

Thank you!

Favourite eyelashes discontinued - Please help me find alternative!

Hi!

I shall explain the title, Superdrug have discontinued my favourite lashes (Thick & Wispy FM029) and as an autistic person this upsets me because I wear these practically every single day, I'm down to my last 2 actually wearable pairs and have bought all of the ones off of vinted. It's not the feel of them it's more the look of them.

Does anyone know where I can buy ones similar? I looked at plouise and unicorn cosmetics but the reviews on them say that they're extremely flimsy. 25 quid honestly isn't bad for 6-8 pairs but not sure if I can justify spending that on something if people say they fall apart so easily. I saw my pair on eBay but there's no damn way I'm paying 25 for a pair of lashes that were literally 3 quid.

They wear extremely heavy on the eyes and they are perfect for my alternative looks! I like the way it gives me a cat eye and the fact you can barely see out of them 🫣

Thank you 🥹

Looking for suggestions for a gift for my mother 🫶

Hi all!

I am currently seeking suggestions for perfume recommendations for a gift for my mother.

Her all time favourite perfume is Poison by dior.

She also owns obsession for women by Calvin Klein, Fame by Paco rabanne, etc

I introduced her to zoologist moth and plum in cognac and she liked them (I love her alot but don't want her to wear the same stuff as me 🥲)

She seems to lean to citrus fruity, woody, vanilla, spicy scents.

Thank you !

Stereoplasm, oh stereoplasm.. Where do I even begin?

It's like a name you hear and your heart drops at this point. I am extremely tired at what's happening with my order.

Some of you may have seen my last past about stereoplasm last month about how I ordered 2 months ago and it still hadnt been shipped well..

Guess what? I still have yet to receive my order. I try so hard not to dunk on small businesses but the business model of this perfumery is absolutely... abhorrent.

A label was created for my order 16 (minus 4 for weekends) days ago now and it still hasn't been shipped out. I have now been waiting 3 months now. I've reached out multiple times all with quick responses and yet nothing seems to actually be happening. I try to give grace but this is getting so tiring now 😔 I cannot understand why the storefront constantly closes to fulfill orders and reopens almost immediately to then get a big influx of more orders that also aren't going to be... fulfilled.

I'm just feeling pretty frustrated and like I'm never actually going to receive my package.

Sorry for my rant.

Hi exo subreddit, I need your help confirming this exo-l fan channel actually existed.

hi!!

I've been searching for ages on old Reddit exo-l YouTube threads for this channel but can't seemingly find any mention of it though I know that it definitely existed.

it was a channel around 2017-2020 called kokobops and they were pretty known, definitely had over 10k+ subscribers but I can't seem to find any proof that they actually were a channel.

their pfp was a screen grab of Baekhyun from the silence or shout video (knowing bros, 2019) so definitely were from back then. their layout was white and red and in the pattern of peppermint colours.

they used to consistently post exo on crack videos with that style of 'unhinged' editing that was popular back then.

I'm going to only guess that they fell out of kpop, got busy and thus deleted their channel or privated their videos.

if anyone can confirm this channel existed I'd really appreciate it bc I feel like I'm going insane 💀

[TOMT] [2010s] [ALBUM] Looking for an album and it's cover that I can't find

Hi all,

I am trying to find an album cover that I cannot find and Google is 0 help at all.

I don't know the actual genre of the music but assume it's sad experimental from what I see people say. I've seen a lot of people have this as their pfp and it's mostly used by the trope of teenage girls who watch girl interrupted and listen to Fiona apple (not to stereotype lol)

It's a blonde woman really up close and blurry and she looks a bit distressed or panicked (?) her makeup is a bit messy. I wanna say she had a really normal name. It's annoying me because I found the album before but now can't find it. It wasn't an actual album cover ifygm it was just a photograph. I think she released other music but wasn't really a hit artist.

Children's book I can't find but know I had in the 2010s.

Hi all,

I'm hoping someone can help me find this book or any evidence that it actually existed.

When I was younger, this would have been in the late ish 2010s? (13-14) I had this book which I believe to be called What's that pong? but cannot find any proof it existed at all.

It was a scratch and sniff book that had a bunch of bad smells in it and awful fart humour. Was a hardback book and think the cover had a cut out in the shape of a fart (mature I know)

Do not remember the exact plot at all but think it included animals and humans in it. There probably wasn't a solid plot at all, just different situations along with their smells.

I think the pong was farts :/

I'm 100% this book existed, it may not have been called What's that pong but It definitely wasn't anything like What's that smell? (iirc)

Please help :)

Songs about/that feel like a beautiful but evil woman about to ruin your life?

As the title provides! Incredibly long, oops:

Looking for songs that you guys think match my criterias. I was listening to tim Currys (bless him) toxic love from the fern gully soundtrack and now I'm hungry for more songs of this vibe.

Songs about an evil but beautiful woman about to ruin your life

Songs you think an evil but beautiful woman about to ruin your life would listen to

Songs that feel like how an evil but beautiful woman about to ruin your life looks, behaves etc

I listen to pretty much every genre but avoiding kpop and jpop for this post specifically. I really prefer slow, smooth, 'jazzy' music. New wave. Synth driven. Anything honestly.

Favourite artists include jamiroquai, Depeche mode, SOM, ATCQ, etc

Heavy pointers for the type of songs I'm looking for would be Tim Curry - Toxic love, Chris rainbow - Be Like A Woman, The cramps - Georgia Lee, Depeche mode - Strange love

Of course extremely heavy on Toxic love. A total banger. I don't really know how to describe the genre lol.

Bonus points if there's any rap songs about women like that (even more points if they talk about witchy women)

Sorry for such a long post! I'm open to all suggestions.

Edit: I should probably add, I'd prefer for these to be in the pov of men talking/singing about said woman 🙂

[TOMT] [MUSIC VIDEO] [2000S?] Rap music video end outtake scene

Hi TOMT, I'm looking for a rap music video that I can't seem to find anywhere but I know exists. I originally thought it was lil Wayne or limp bizkit but can't find anything that matches.

Right at the end of the music video said rap artist stands still while there's a girl dancing absolutely crazy around or next to him and I'm 99% she's goth and wearing black clothing, I think a dress?

I think this scene was set in some sort of garage DJ place, a bit like some of the parts in nookie by limp bizkit. I could have sworn it was this exact songs mv but can't find any scene matching.

Think said mv was from the 2000s maybe extremely early 2010s, no later. I tried googling around but found nothing and I'm definitely not using ai.

'Hippie' scents?

Hi! I'm on the hunt for more hippie-ish Headshop scents.

Things that include, frankincense, incense-y notes, nag champa, Moroccan flowers etc

I currently own and, also my top 3 scents of all time BPAL - Ask the nearest hippie, Alkemia - Hex and Alkemia - hippie spirit

Out of all 3 of these my favourites is Hex, it's incredible honestly and I'm devastated it got discontinued. I wish I could have snagged up more bottles of it.

Thank you!

When would you consider cancelling an order?

I don't really want to publicly name this indie perfumer as to cause no drama but... when would you guys end up cancelling the order?

I have been waiting 2 months now for my order to even ship and it still hasn't, owner is constantly sending out updates saying that it will be sent on this day, on that day and still nothing has come of it. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt because the owner is extremely communicative but :/ I have emailed the owner twice and they have told me it would be sent out on certain days but.. it hasn't.

It was only an order that came to $40 but I still think it's quite a bit to be out of pocket of.

Perfumes you think people overreact about being bad?

I ask this question after a video I saw earlier by the content creator ghoul.in.japan where she discussed her collection, especially her collection of toskovats fragrances. She talked about how she believes that people overreact about how bad Inexcusable Evil actually is. Toskovat is definitely a house that is made to be offensive on the nose but I do have to agree with her point.

I own other fragrances/perfumes that people say the same about Hyrax and T-rex by zoologist. They definitely are not everyday wear but I don't think are anywhere near as bad as people present them to be.

Of course everyone's noses are different and everyone else has their own opinion so I wonder what other people think?

Boomer stands still behind my clearly reversing vehicle and then starts shouting at me to watch where I'm going.

My first ever first hand boomer encounter, incredible!

I'm in the car park of a store getting ready to properly park my vehicle, there's a free space and person is gesturing for me to back up into it. Great!

Not for boomer though, boomer who can clearly see that I am reversing my vehicle decides to literally just stand behind of it looking around in a daze like a spell was put on her. I beep to let her know to move and boy was that the wrong thing to do. Boomer goes into hysterics at me shouting WATCH WHERE YOU ARE GOING YOUNG LADY!! I told her No, *you* should watch where you are going and she started going on about how pedestrians have right of way and she's going to report me to the council. 'I THOUGHT YOU WERE PARKING!!!' you just didn't lady!! She muttered under her breathe dropping the F bomb and calling me an idiot and stormed off into the store.

Legally pedestrians do have right of way I admit and a vehicle should watch but it's beyond me why you would stand there for like 2 minutes Infront of a vehicle clearly reversing and then get mad at them for it.

Looking for YouTube channel who archived post punk, new wave and goth obscure songs.

Hi all, I came here to ask a question because I guarantee at least someone here will probably know what channel I am looking for.

There was or is a YouTube channel who's whole account is just dedicated to archiving post punk/goth/ revival music dating to the 80s to now. Some of their songs were known but I believe the focus was on more 'niche' music, things that wouldn't be available on Spotify or extremely hard to find on YouTube. I think the account only had around 30-50k subs.

Thank you!
