Sorry to ask but is there something going on between Specktra/Trendmood? I follow TM on IG and I will gladly unfollow them if they are stealing Specktra's pics :)
LONG story short, TM was taking pics/info off Specktra, not giving ANY credit whatsoever and just passing it all off as her own. She was not doing what she does now where she actually credits people. She was actually finding ways to remove watermarks etc. She eventually ended up being blocked due to her blatant pic/info theft.

Thought i'd add this photo. It's been posted elsewhere, but since it's part of this collection... From Instagrammer victorcembellin ETA: I'm guessing they are Top Left - Please Yourself blush Top Right - Perfect Topping MSF 'cuz it's described as having pink/blue/yellow marble Bottom Left - Force of Nature M e/s - it looks plum in the photo, but there's no plum e/s, so it must be the brown, since all the others are pale
Ooh totally want all of that except for the possible eyeshadow in the bottom corner. MSF and any blushes though yesss

They've long been taking photos from here and not crediting Specktra or the person who posted it and try to pass it off as their own or what they get from "sources". They've taken colour stories, photos.

Oh it probably will be like that. TM can't handle being called out. When the Simpsons collection came out someone asked in the comments of the collection was real (when the fake colour story was still being posted) and I told the person the collection is real but the story they were posting wasn't and one of TMs minions started cussing me out and TM blocked me lol

He/she/it has taken so many pictures from here, mine included (And tons from Erine) so we asked her/him to take them down from the account (This was when it was only Trendmood btw). Then I got blocked, a bunch of us reported Trendmood for copyright infringement and the account was taken down. That's why its called Trendmood1 now, the old one was removed for violations of the IG TOS. Basically Trendmood is a thief and benefits from taking other's contents and tell them they should be appreciative of the "spotlight"..

The fact that T-douche cropped the pic is ridiculous. How desperate. So that means she does have her minions lurking here giving her info. Note to myself: BIGGER watermarks, and drawing a penis instead of a smiley face.
As for the other IGer, I was already thinking she must be a Specktra member. She was giving credit in the only other pic I saw from her.
And speaking of the 'site', I was thinking for a while that we shouldn't talk about it (much)... just post the pics/info and that's it.

Trendmood stole your  promo pic and cropped out Specktra  watermark out of it. She also copied another IG user's caption word for word.She couldn't steal the other pic cause the user has a water mark all through it.
:censored:
That also means, that if pics are being taken out of The Scoop thread, the people doing so have participated enough on the forum just to be able to do so. :sigh:
Mhm :(

The worst part is I have NEVER seen her post a single pic that is her own!! Like something she brought or even a scoop unless it is from someone else!!
I'm starting to think she/he whoever doesn't even wear or purchase makeup and is just going for likes. Nothing is ever their own, it's all recycled.

ITA, been noticing that lately I never see or hear some folks mention items they love, bought/plan to buy, a pic of their haul or any make up wishlists Really don't think a lot of these particular folks even like or wear make up tbh.

It's so weird to me when these IG "beauty bloggers" never show their hauls or talk about likes or dislikes on their pages. I always find that as being some of the fun about buying and wearing makeup. Making lists, placing your order(s), going on about how excited you are for your package to arrive and then the big reveal and then seeing people's looks they've done with their new items. I love that and it's definitely one of the many reasons I love Specktra so much.

Specktra is such a wonderful place to share in our makeup love!

Same here! I don't know why, but that was my go-to assumption early on.
