Dear God, I truly miss you. (I guess you could say this is more of a resume type post, lol.) There is literally nothing in this world I miss more than the Y2K/“vintage“ Lip Smackers being in every single type of store you could ever walk into. I now walk into stores, see the new logo they have going on, and I can’t help but to reminisce on so many vintage styles just gone with no unforeseen sign of resuscitating. I would do practically anything at this point to try and join the Lip Smackers team. Someone (me) needs to truly sit down with them and discuss what can revive the Lip Smackers brand and bring back a generation of lip gloss collectors to connect, interact, and pass down the joy of collecting Lip Smackers to the newer generations. Everyone (still) already buys and hoards lip gloss, but it should be Lip Smackers.

There have been a handful of occasions where I’ve smelled the now-discontinued shampoo my mom’s late best gay friend Jackie used (who called me his little bitch when I was growing up and taught me everything I know about style, elegance, and attitude) and it made me cry. The smells of lumber, soil, and wood varnish remind me of the countless hours spent in my childhood with my dad in the greenhouse, the back patio workshop and at various supply warehouses.
The smell of creosote in the desert rain—sorely missed and I want to buy a candle or something that replicates this because it’s my favorite scent in the world. L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme on a shirt-collar takes me back to the warmth and security of first love and reminds me of what it feels like to be home. I’ve posted that I wear Fracas every time I want to remember a happy significant day so that’s probably my most strongly nostalgic scent.
The smell of old books and cigarettes! When I come into my apartment after stepping out for just a moment after making espresso and the lingering smell makes me feel like I’m in a cafe! The smell of a REAL Christmas tree!
Yesterday at the farmer‘s market I smelled a butterfly bush plant for sale and childhood memories came flooding back. Juicy Couture by Juicy Couture was my grandmother's signature scent because she liked the Schnauzers on the bottle so Tuberose always reminds me of her + the smell of face powder. I could go on forever…

Because it’s iconic. And because that’s me.

Coffee should be black, alcohol should burn, cigarettes should leave a bad taste on your fingers and hair. Culturally we’ve moved away from this which causes people to overindulge & you should feel the weight of substances
