I thought she sounded genuinely excited, she’s definitely got potential
It is - I bought it and it’s a great travel size. It’s a nice cleanser for sure but a really tiny tube. I’d stick with the Superdrug own range for the same price

i think I could have been tempted if it was in support of RuthI feel like an idiot! All this time I thought the "Ginsberg is God" slogan was in reference to Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Thankfully I don't own any of the overpriced tat
I've gone down a bit of a rabbit hole with this one so Googled the phrase to see where it would take me. Why is nobody talking about Ginsberg and the hideous inappropriateness of the candle/sweater/whatever other tit Bella Freud has put it on.
Also, I didn't realize how unlikeable BF was until now.

Shouting on a sweater as a substitute for actual talent
That flipping candle is beyond pretentious. I just find £45 bonkers when it looks like you could buy it anywhere. There are three reviews of it on the cultbeauty site, can anybody spot Sali’s?
Wonder how the Guardian feels about an editor endorsing a candle with a phrase praising a paedophia?
I don't get the lack of research at all - the most cursory two minute Google search reveals Allen Ginsberg was a paedophile, and a defiantly proud one too by the sound of it. He might be the best tousle haired poet out there, but I'm afraid being a child molester sort of eclipses that. It is as appropriate as a 'Weinstein is a Winner' decorative vase. Because he was such a good film producer.
(Reminds me horribly of the Coco Chanel being so marvellous statement - 'dodgy politics aside'
)
And seriously re the FB group - why should anyone say please when asking a simple question? How rude to be admonished like that. The OP response was far more polite than mine would have been. And I wish the term 'curated' to dignify choosing a few items would be dropped. Makes me cringe. Last night at Asda I curated my shopping in the frozen veg aisle.

Think we're onto something here. A whole range of candles celebrating disgraced men because they had some talent. Saville is a Superhero, because he raised loads of money for charity. We'll just ignore the sex offending.I don't get the lack of research at all - the most cursory two minute Google search reveals Allen Ginsberg was a paedophile, and a defiantly proud one too by the sound of it.

I had a quick look at Caroline Hirons FB to see the response. Lacklustre I would say - with a very unscientific count looking like at least three quarters of commenters would not bother. Biggest sticking points seem to be the candle (same reasons given here), and the CC cream. A lot of people find it just too greasy, plus it has snail mucin in. Though Sali did not say the collection was vegan, she did say it was cruelty free, and opinion is divided how the mucin is harvested - some say the snail has to be put in a 'stressed' state to produce it.
Also Caroline's own kit (just released I think) has the Dennis Gross pads.

If that's in relation to me, I'm talking specifically about nobody seeming to have any issue with the wording on the Bella Freud stuff. Not Ginsberg himself. There's plenty out there about him.I don't get the lack of research at all - the most cursory two minute Google search reveals Allen Ginsberg was a paedophile, and a defiantly proud one too by the sound of it.

I think it was aimed at Sali, @torontoon .
Yes, definitely at Sali/the sheeple/whoever is not making a fuss about this in the media
Do you think anybody might DM Sali about the candles, or will she just block/ignore?
Probably block on sight.
Where are the Daily Fail lurkers when you need ‘em?

Oh no I didn't mean you at all - I totally agreed with your comment - I really meant Bella Freud and Sali. Actually Bella Freud mostly. To make such a bold statement (and make money) on clothes, products etc lionising someone you would have to be so sure of your facts, not just lazily use an alliterative slogan as it sounded 'cool'. And it really wasn't hard to find the sex abuse claims.
I didn't know these things about him until this thread - but once seen you can't unsee them. I presume Sali didn't know either tbf to her. I presume she trusted Bella Freud wouldn't be celebrating a child molester - it really is not the first thing you would think of.
Edit: I just wondered there if that is why Cult Beauty had such a backlog of the candles? As they are hardly a new product. People just won't buy them? So they were foisted onto an unsuspecting Sali as a 'huge favour'?
I've just submitted a 'review' of the candle onto the Cult Beauty website but doubt that it will be published.
It was awful :-( https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-36535263
