My favorite perfume house (and the one that started my indie obsession) is BPAL. I started with a couple bottles from the yule 2020 collection, and it held there for couple a years. I rediscovered by bottles and love for perfume earlier this year. My collection has exploded, and I've been branching out into other shops. But BPAL remains dominant in my collection.
For skincare/bath and body, I've been really enjoying Fae Fragrance. I just got an order with some of the heavy hand cream and some lip balm. They are so nice! The prices are fabulous and so far the quality is great. I have terribly dry hands from the work I do, and living in nitrile gloves. The cream is so light and a tiny bit goes a long way.
And not quite indie, more boutique but I've been getting back into painting my nails to practice some more self care, and have been really enjoying my Mooncat polishes. I've hoping to check out the July PPU and explore some indie polish!
Curious to know what you'd picked up in PPU! Plenty of good ones this month.
Oof, my wallet. So many! It was my first one and the rewind call was too strong. Picked up Twitterpated, Little Moth 2.0, It's haunted AF, Shake Your Shamrock, The Toxic B*tch (my first thermal!), Glass Frog, Glampire, Boy Toy, Whoa, Zombie Carnival, and Forest Dreams. I'm taking a polish break thanks to sweaty hands and frequent PPE changes over the next couple weeks. So my reward will be getting my PPU order when I'm done and back to painting my nails! I'm still building a collection, but after this and my Mooncat orders, I'm set for a while!
Awesome haul! I picked up Ard as Nails as well, and had to go back for Fancy Gloss. Went a bit ham myself this month. Figured this was my chance to get my hands on some of the iconic shades as I don't shop PPU regularly.
I'm excited for your growing collection! Wish I had the discipline to say I'm set for a while but the pretties are too tempting.
