I love your winged eyeliner! I'm still trying to find the best technique/brush that works for me and my eyes shape, but my bigger problem is keeping the wing intact. I get oily in my order corners, an it migrates into the wing and breaks it down over the course of the day. Haven't found a primer than works well enough to minimize if not eliminate that altogether.NC 50 for reference.. This is Pc and also the Highlight is fp from mn

To me it is the prices and stalking and asking people to let you know where to look for extras to sell. Posting about numerous order waiting to ship just to resell is irritating when others can't even get the items. I saw this a while back but did not say anything. It is just frustrating.I think the issue people are having is that your selling them for so muchespecially since so many ladies were trying to get their hands on those lipsticks,... I agree there is nothing wrong with selling your back ups that is your choice and i'm not against making extra $$ off them. But come on now those prices look like the evil Ebayers
that are just trying to take advantage because they are so hard to come by.

thank you, lately u have been obsessed with big thick wings.. And I use nyc liquid liner I swear it's the easiest liner I have ever used.. But it's not waterproof which really sucks.. I have that problem with my waterline.. No matter what pencil I use.. My liner from my water line seems to drip down to my lower lash then it all goes down hill from there

I personally don't care what anyone sales their items for because I see it this way...if you're desperate enough and frankly...foolish enough to spend that much on something that really isn't worth it then that's on you (the buyer). It's not my money. I don't think it's about where you're selling it for those that have an issue with it. It's the markup. Not that you have to explain yourself but...why did you go through all of the trouble to hunt them down only to flip them for such a high price? Seems odd to do so much work for backups you barely held on to....and seems more like you did it with the intent to flip them (which might be what has rubbed some the wrong way). If that was your intent then again....nothing wrong with that at all. Some won't like it of course but not much any of is can do about it. It's not something I personally would set out to do (but I'll admit that if someone on their own offered to pay me an insane amount for a backup that I have I wouldn't tell them no lol). Yes, I've listed a few items in my clearance bin a little above retail to cover what I spent out of pocket (shipping or taxes if that were the case) but I wouldn't mark something up 2x or 3x the retail price...especially right after it just launched and say it was me just unloading my backups. That's just a personal choice. Doesn't make me better than anyone else or anything. It's really not that serious. Besides...I'm kinda glad you didn't list it like that on here. I'd hate to see a fellow member pay that much if they really didn't have to. I'd go out of my way to try and find it for them at retail around me if I could before I let them do that...or sell them one of my backups at cost.I kinda like ya'll lol

Ok. Got my goodies. LOVE Hautecore with red in the middle. Alone, not so much on me and I will have to line. Punk Couture and Instigator look almost identical on my lips. Instigator is way creamy though. It is not like TTT on me either and I still like TTT better but Instigator is cool and I am glad I backed it up. I love the glosses but I think others are right that they are just renamed and rebrushed from the others. I do not have my old ones with me but from memory they are the same. Possibly finer shimmer though. I think Jet Boy is my favorite. I loved it over errthang I have worn this week. I do hope they make Hautecore perm though. It is very user friendly and versatile.

I know the feeling and you would think someone being a member on here would understand where we are coming from when they try to sell it for 3x more the amount they paid. I've had plenty of collections that I missed because they were sold out but I refuse to pay a ridiculous amount just to get my hands on one. One example is Heroine I was pissed that I couldn't get one but I wasn't going to pay $50-$60 for it..Then my prayers were answered and it became perm.To me it is the prices and stalking and asking people to let you know where to look for extras to sell.

I can't multiquote for some reason but I do hear & understand all of you. Though i wasn't selling at triple the price, I do get what you mean. Again, I was helping out fellow members PMing them as to where they could buy the products, giving out phone numbers etc and no it wasn't my initial intention to sell my BU's but I do get that it's off putting/frustrating to some of you. Just want to make that clear. I'm still here to help in the community and I would like that known as well.

Right!!! I feel like if you do it, do not brag and use a different name or something if you don't wanna be looked at in a negative manner.I know the feeling and you would think someone being a member on here would understand where we are coming from when they try to sell it for 3x more the amount they paid.

My shipping label has been created! Maybe just maybe I'll have these babies by tomorrow night.
I do not come here for info to resell nor was I ever bragging about anything. If you knew me at all I believe you'd see that. I don't feel the need to use different names to hide anything. I'm a very honest person and I'd rather be out in the open than trying to hide things I don't feel are necessary to hide. Clearly it's a big deal to you. Anyway, I'd like to get back to my usual pleasant self here on Specktra, so I genuinely hope you have a great day.
