One in a bullion is definitely bitch vibes and it’s so clear she wants to be an influencer
Well she's completely self sabotaged herself today.... asking her followers to unfollow her probably thinking that instead she'll get sympathy but thousands have done exactly as she asked wouldn't it of been just as easy to start up a private account and follow only the people you know and want to rather then ask everyone to unfollow you. This is blatant attention seeking at its finest.

I just wanted to say that I think we should also take responsibilty over what we choose to consume online. If posts of a seemingly perfect life is making you feel bad about your totally normal (and realistic) one, then maybe actively avoid them. I'm in no way defending SA's or other influencer's posts but just know for myself when its starting to affect me mentally and I choose to stay away.
We have no control over what they put out there and could only hope they become more mindful of it but I know I have control over what I choose to absorb from what I see online.

So predictable, then we will get the whole “I’ve decided I’m not going to let them get me down, I’m strong, I’m this, I’m that and I’ll continue doing what I enjoy” she wanks on constantly about she never wanted her page to get to that size, riiiigghht!

Very true! I was denied boarding on a domestic flight the other day because I was trying to check in just seconds before the 'Closed' sign went up ... the airport attendant was lovely - so helpful - but despite radioing the crew they said no way, no exceptions - not even for high-priority cases (of which I was not) ... apparently they've tightened up on a lot of that stuff just recently. (Thankfully I was able to rebook on a flight an hour later).

I have the tobacco and vanilla and that one is my favourite on a cold day - the whole house smells delicious and I also have blackberry Forest which is incredible but quite sweet. Smells how a fairy’s fart would smell I also have Peonies and Nectarine and that one is disappointing - doesn’t put out much smell at all! I have heard good things about Caramel Latte and Whiskey Room too so if I buy more those will be my next ones
 
On another note can we talk about LFYD's Nanny - Kelly.
I really like Kelly, from what I've seen she is down to earth, lovely and does so much for them. I sometimes feel so sad for her, I wonder if she'll ever have her own family one day or does she view Frankie and Lulu as her own kids. I worry for a day when she might not have a visa and has to leave the country... I can't imagine how much this would affect Frankie and eventually Lulu. I'm not a fan of LFYD but I think it's pretty cool for them to take Kelly back and meet all her family because she's done so much for them all. Wouldn't it be good if we all had a Kelly in our lives.... we know the 'influencers' are definitely here and reading these.. especially lately... so Kelly if you see this - your the real MVP here!!!!

Then again, when you talk about having "worked with" home cleaning supply companies in the past & offer tips on keeping your house clean, you are opening the door to comments.
I have to agree with this - and it's why that Lyndsey 'Queen of Clean' (UK) woman and Hinch get a lot of flak if anything's out of place too.

If you're going to tout yourself as some home cleaning guru, then make sure you walk the talk.

I had no idea who this Rebecca woman was, but felt sorry for her when watching her stories - I hope she's okay. I thought her house looked gorgeous!

Can you edit a post after you post it? I realise I missed a couple of words/spelling mistakes in my last one.

30part rant
Mum & baby's well-being
of not if
Only if the 'edit' option is still showing ... I think it stays up for 10 or so minutes (possibly longer). If you do edit your post, but someone quotes the unedited version in the meantime, your edits won't automatically update.

It's shameful behaviour in my opinion! If she desperately wants a Toyota, she should do what most people do - scour Trade Me or car yards and look for something you can afford! Haggle if you must, but don't expect people to give it to you free.

I agree and also think if someone has a locked account and you choose to follow them even though you think they are fake and bad people then that’s searching for things to get worked up about. You can’t avoid most big influencers unless you block them because the algorithm serves them up to you so in my opinion that’s fair but if you get upset people are swearing or sharing political stuff when they have locked accounts and you’ve searched for it. I personally think that’s on you. I think criticism of faking a perfect life and having too much ads or taking advantage of vulnerable people is fair but some of the petty stuff is worse than what the influencers are doing. If you think Rebecca Keil has a cleaning account you mustn’t follow her or know anything about her.

I do agree with most of your comments but you lost me in the second-to-last paragraph ... for the love of God, please leave race out of it. I get so sick and tired of reading and hearing about 'white privilege' blah blah blah all the time. It really pisses me off!

Agree re race - I did enjoy the “effluent” white women though. I know affluent was meant, but effluent is equally fitting

There’s a few places!
I used to have a little cottage industry business selling - among other handmade / created things - fragranced soy wax candles and melts. I bought most of my supplies from Candle Creations (Auckland) and Zen Aroma (Tauranga); occasionally I'd buy fragrances from Candle Supply (Sydney) if I couldn't find what I needed.

Be very careful about where you buy your supplies from ... a friend bought Chanel No. 5 fragrance oil from a seller on Trade Me and it was so watered/oiled down that it barely had any scent. I imagine there are probably a few people out there who buy the fragrances from the main suppliers (like those I've mentioned above), and see it as a chance to make some money by watering/oiling it down and selling it for a profit!
