Down the Indie Rabbit Hole

[yousoldtheworld]

Just got a great idea for a Christmas present for your unconverted-to-indies friends...a homemade pressed fandom eyeshadow palette! For instance I have two friends in particular that seem to like makeup and fandoms, but probably won't be swayed by loose eyeshadows. So I think I am going to make them eyeshadow palettes with shades from their favorite fandoms.

That's such a great idea...I'd be over the moon to receive something like that /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It's kind of hidden, the comments are in the Additional Information section of the order confirmation. They should show there, and not at the bottom where the free sample perfume is.

Oh hey, there it is! Thank you for relieving my anxiety.

You guys, Bonfire Pumpkins and Black Cat in a Pumpkin Patch from CocoaPink have become my absolute favorite scents (well, that and Cinderella's Carriage). If you like Pumpkin/Marshmallow with a little bit of smoke/bonfire, GET THESE. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. They're better than Haus of Gloi- there, I said it!

Try beautybarbaby-I received a sample from my I+t sub, and omg, I had to order. Super fast shipping, and just really good formulas-both the pot lipsticks, bullet lipsticks and lipbalms.

Second that! I love their lip gloss pots--the texture is equal to if not better than MAC Lipglass and way cheaper.

Somewhat related somewhat not but I loooooveeeeeee beautybar baby's lip balm sticks. They're a lot softer than typical chapsticks (I believe they're coconut oil based so think that consistency) but I looooovvvveeeeee them.

Refund from VDC has successfully gone through to my bank. It was a much easier process than I thought. She sent the refund over the same day I asked, I just had to wait a bit for it to process.

My VDC package was supposed sent last week, but keeps saying preshipment notification for a week. She did say she would repack it within 2 days or I could get a refund. I requested a refund on both my orders, as it's been 2 months and 6 weeks for them. I've heard great things about her shadows but quite honestly, I'm starting to wonder if she's using the money for other things. How can one person have so many issues with the post office? It brings up red flags...

I have no problem waiting a month for an order with the communication that TAT is long. But this is ridiculous. I've been in communication with her, and while she's been very nice, how can so many packages get lost?

I had ordered from them twice. One package came fine. The other would have been "sent" for the third time if I didn't ask for a refund. I simply asked if that package hadn't been sent yet I would like a refund. She informed me it was ready to ship that day but wouldnt go out until that night. If I instead wanted a refund that wouldn't be a problem. I decided to just go ahead with a refund and she processed the refund the same day. In your case I would probably just request the refund too. There's only so many times you can bug someone about something.

She did say I should have my refund this evening. I was so optimistic but now I can buy other indie products lol

Can you post a picture?? /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm one of those that haven't shipped yet due to supply... /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

You guys still waiting on VD orders, do not feel bad to pester her. That is the only way I got my order, and even if your shipping label is in preshipment for days, email her again. I found out you can get a shipping label refund without it showing up on your tracking, so I think she might be doing that for some. Just bug her until it gets checked in to USPS.

 

[Shalott]

Speaking of pestering, no response on Etsy to message I left for Debaucherous Bath last Friday re: shipping, grr, and judging by Facebook (I don't use Reddit) others have the same problem. Although I DID get shipping from someone named Erin Leake, again no business information attached, so if anyone knows what company Erin works for I'd appreciate you enlightening me?

I have to be unkind, but in the future I am simply not going to purchase from unreliable vendors. There are plenty of companies whose proprietors work hard, and I'd rather support them, full stop.

With that said I am extremely jealous of those of you with the Visage blush, and I think I will need to track that one down when the window opens up. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Edit: Information helps, dingaling. <_<
