Tacky swap 2020

11-20
  Do you like skincare, cosmetics, or makeup?  Would you like a little self care bundle? I usually use  witch hazel in the morning, facial cleanse during night shower, a light moisturizer usually with salicylic acid at night (super oily skin), and sometimes I’ll use an acne sheet mask. Most make up slides off & now will come off on my mask, so I live in bright colored eye liner, love nyx & urban decay liners (love UD’s matte back “perversion” eyeliner).   Is there an author or a series that you have recently fallen in love with or really want to read? 
cherise sinclair, masters of the shadowlands or her other books. I tend to get books at the library, mainly eaudiobooks through their apps these days, but her stuff (erotica) tends not to be there.   Is my (BPAL) wishlist up to date?    I kinda gave up on it & try to focus on what I do try & like. My top picks I think are more or less current.   Chocolate and orange? 
Yes! One of my faves   Hand-written decant labels? Sure!   Walnuts or pecans? 
 Love them both  —————// 11-17   If I were to knit you something, what colors do you prefer?  (for fingerless mitts or shawlette)  black, gray, crimson, rainbow   Do you appreciate self striping or gradients?  (yeah, most of my yarn is self striping or gradient, I have very few semi-solid anymore and I ditched pretty much all of my variegated because I hate the way it knits up.) yes, very muchly love variation & dimension    Any yarn preferences?  (merino, acrylic, merino silk, merino cashmere, etc) nope Knit Headbands. Sure keep my hair out of my Dave    Christmas colors: not really, I’m partial to red though.   I use both candles & wax. Prefer wax for my burners
  Lush and bath & body: I like the lush scent honey I washed the kids.  l prefer shower gel, but soap is good too. pbsw: sorbetto is good but not my fave. I am addicted to sugar spider sugar scrub. Also like tree hut sugar scrub. enable me with your fave foodie/chocolate scented sugar scrub. Sugar scrub is my fave shower item.   I haven’t met a fruitcake I like yet. 

im a dog person, though don’t currently have a dog. Want a pug.   favorite Christmas aesthetic: I love decorated trees, Christmas lights, candy cane patterns, ugly & cable knit sweaters, poinsettias, & the grinch.

Thoughts about lovely bespoke cleansing scrubs a la Sugar Spider (https://sugarspider.shop/) or PBSW sorbets? love love love sugar spider!!!!! Pbsw sorbetto are nice too.   How about literary writing gloves? don’t even know what they are, probably not   Tokidoki, anyone? Other cute kawaii goodness? Plushies, blind boxes, etc?.  love tokidoki, have a tote bag, prefer usable things but blind boxes would be nice too, little figures I could put on my desk.   Fun cloth masks? Holiday themed or no? Favorite style? Yes & yes!! Colorful, goth, holiday, unicorn, rainbow, Plague doctor, sugar skull, Santa, elves, trees, lights, love it all   ——————- 11/10 10:30pm Would you be interested in trying out anything from Nocturne Alchemy Lab? (http://nocturnealchemy.com ) love their chocolate & raspberry & rice milk notes.  Just bought a ton of pumpkin scent samples from Ajevie  
2. Would you like a batch of home-made bath salts? (if you have allergies / skin sensitivities, rest assured, I can make them with pure epsom salts and pure essential oils- just tell me what you'd like - or what to avoid) no thank you.   
3. Anything catch your eye from Dandelion Chocolate? (https://store.dandelionchocolate.com/pages/home)  Not a fan of dark choco   4. What's a thing you always tell yourself you're going to get just for you but haven't yet? Name one thing under $10 and one thing over $10 Fillable tea bags   What's your favorite type of chocolate? (milk, white, dark, with nuts, with fruit, flavored chocolate, etc.) white, milk with caramel or pb, peppermint bark, Anything sweet really   2. How do you feel about stationery? (letter sets, stickers, pens, etc.) Love it, cute papers envelopes, & stickers   3. If you had to pick a favorite flavor (sweet, spicy, sour, savory, salty) what would it be?  Wicked sweet tooth   4. What's one food/flavor that you absolutely hate or dislike strongly? Plain vinegar, (pickled things are fine but like salt & vinegar trips)   New Question -- For the purposes of this swap (not trying to start an international perfume debate), is honey a gourmand note? it falls in gourmand, it’s edible, but I amp it & am not a fan of honey perfumes.      ————————————— 11-9 8:28pm PBSW has their Yuletide Winter collection out sans candles (http://paintboxsoapworks.com/new-limited-edition/2020-yuletide-winter-limited-editions/) that are coming soon. Is there anything you'd like? Also any scents you'd like as candles when they come out? Sugar scrub, I can never have enough. Comfort & joy; sozzled; white snow   If you like incense what type to you use? Stick/cone/loose? No thank you, bugs my allergies   Do you have a favorite animal?  sloth, hedgehog,    Would you like gloves/mittens/scarf/winter hat? all of them, black or rainbow, just lost my favorite winter hat.   Do you prefer loose leaf tea or bagged? either is fine.
