I was going to buy the beauty powder, but I was afraid that it will be too light for me. I am regretting this now, but if it comes back I'll buy it.
I know this is really petty... but your Avi is actually making me twitch in fear, lol. My fear of things with 8 legs is extreme.

My Macy's order arrived and my Forever Marilyn BP is damaged! The compact has three cracks in it. I thought about exchanging it, but I was too scared they might sell out so I ordered a new one last night (threw in a couple UD Heavy Metal glitter liners to get free shipping) and I'll just send this one back for a refund. My Perfect Cheek blush was fine.
Someone needs to educate Macy's about throwing some bubble wrap around these delicate powder products, but BP and MSF in particular. I am happy for you that you were able to get a replacement. I got a completely busted By Candlelight from Macy's and needlesstosay, I don't order those type of products by mail from them anymore. I wasn't able to exchange it b/c it was sold out everywhere. (which is probably why I got it from them to begin with). I am hoping for some of the FM to show up at my CCO and I will get as many BU as they let me walk out with.

Me too. I am glad you said something - now I don't feel so weird. Seeing them in the flesh immobilizes me with fear.
Me three. I can't stomach it lol I freak out when I see one.
Yeah. I'm gonna have to disable avi's from being seen in my settings, 'cause otherwise I'll just be covering my screen all the time worrying I'll see it. I also become immobile when I see them in the flesh, along with crying, screaming, flailing around etc. I've had nightmares where I've woken up screaming and crying due to them, I just can't handle it.

I did a quad CP from macys that just came to today. No bubbler. Just a plastic sleeve, and the quad was wrapped in tissue paper. Really?

That's nuts. How can companies send things like that? They're just asking to be forced to re-send products or give refunds.


Nuh uh, I don't. I've had all kinds and I just cannot cope. My biggest fear in life is something happening to my family, but, really, this is like.. tied. It's that extreme. I can actually sense when they're near now it's so bad.

Thank you, genuinely.  I am sorry you've felt the need to have to do so, as I obviously want you to be welcomed to the forum and enjoy yourself.  My fear with them is just so extreme I can't cope.  If I didn't know how they try to make people get over it in therapy, I'd go.  Thank you again, though, and welcome to Specktra.

That's why i immediately checked it to make sure your quad was intact!

You should try EMDR therapy (with a trained therapist of course). It won't involve having to touch them or anything. I used it for my fear of flying and I'm completely over it!

Thank you -- I'm looking into finding therapists locally as I type this, maybe it'll help!

The UPS guy just brought my replacement FM and luckily this one survived. It was packed with bubble wrap instead of tissue. Yay!
