  1. I want to try Lumina but with everything else on my list, can really only go for one big 'booster'. I've been reading the DHEAS or Topper thread - def good info there as well as here. So.. if it helps (noticed some were asking about difft effects from these)- I copied/ pasted into from the LP website on what's in each. If that's not OK pls let me know, don't want to upset anyone or infringe on anything. So here's the skinny per LP: Lumina: For accentuating that precious 'glow' of femininity ~ attractiveness, sparkle, happiness, youthful appeal and confidence. Ingredients: Estratetraenol, Alpha-Androstenol, DHEAS, Epi-Androsterone, Copulins. Topper: Topper is a "finishing spray", that may be worn by both men and women. It contains the light-hearted mood elevator and sexual attractant Alpha Androstenol, and the youthful, energizing, lovey-dovey excitement of DHEAS. It makes sense that Topper wouldn't have EST, because that's a girl thing, specifically pregnancy which is probably why it makes you look/ appear glowy. Also looks like Lumina has cops, but Topper doesn't. DHEAS: Single Molecule UNscented Pheromone Spray for both sexes to wear. Bestows a feeling of youthful vitality, excitement, mood elevation, friendliness and assists bonding. So in addition to personal pref & chemistry, prob one way to look at it (if you can only get 1 for awhile) is - if you are already wearing cops & pheros, perhaps DHEAS is a good choice. BUT if you're like me, just starting & have mainly samples in oil (so I can't spray around for max drawing effect & can only get 1 for awhile) - may make sense to go for Lumina or Topper. I read in a thread (I think it's the DHEA or Toppers thread) that some ppl may not like EST on them bc their SOs like them 'fiestier' vs. maybe appearing more vunerable, an effect from the EST in Lumina. So just something else to add to the mix for personal consideration. Now even if your SO likes you fiesty, everyone's chemistry is different. I personally LOVE the descrip for ALL of them -and want to be all glowy too! I'd get them ALL right now if I could. Thanks to all for the info on selfies and hits. Thanks Lovestruck - good info on Lumina paired with Cougar. I have cougar samples - thinking of test driving Cougar tonight - wish I had a mini spray kit, but in due time. In interim, may pair Cougar with LP Pink - because LOVE my sugar in the LP Pink - smells so Yummy. And lasts.
  2. missdarylncherie and hearts - reviews put me over on this - put in order for samples of both of these today! And of course Lady V's suggest that I MUST get OCCO Ambrosia - her post is beyond awesome. I have a feeling I'm going to be even more hooked on LP than I already am.
  3. Thanks for info on that Rose!!! Just ordered sample of LP pure sugar - I'll probably get kinniptions when I try it and will have to immed get FB. I'm sure Pure Sugar's awesome on it's own but love the LAM pheros, and so far buttercream peach 'flavor' layers/ plays well with sugary scents - so plan on test driving both solo and layered. Heeee. Of course LAM is a wonder solo - LOVE - pls post when you get your FB. Def give it a bit for the 'candied' tone mellow out (like 10-30 min tops), then it's all buttery creamy peachy warm sexy goodness from there, with good staying power. I know I must stop gushing @ it, love it so though.
  4. SOLD!!! And that'll be my new mantra when wearing it!! LOVE, thanks LadyV!
  5. OMG LP Pure Sugar -- sounds beyond Yummy. Adding to list - along with OCCO Pink and LP Pink FBs. And others on my list. Thanks Luna and of course Mara - for all you do and for bringing all these wonderful brews to us! Training on learning as much before next order. Hee!
  6. Yum. How do y'all use - face, body, hair -- does it lock in any moisture of can you use to prep skin prior to body butters/ lotions to lock the hydration in? I love pink sugar - so may have to add to my list that's already so long I've confused myself.
  7. Gracias Beccah!! Will do!! I hope my eyes can keep reading as much as possible prior to sale... I consider this pre-sale training.
  8. Thanks to all for the info and reviews - now I *must* try this as well!! I was thinking before OCCO pink may be my 1st venture into OCCO. But after this and reading pink could get powdery (me no likey powder scent on self) - and all the wonderful reviews - must at least try this. And OCCO pink. Lady V and Hearts - maybe it it keeps selling it'll go PERM one day? Then everyone can still hoard but without panic. Missdarlyncherie - that just sounds so yummy - and I know what it means to feel super love for fragrance - excited to try this! Snowflake - like idea of using in body lotion/ body butter.. I usually use a coconut body butter - hopefully it won't overpower or outweigh this scent. I may have to find an unscented body body that still drenches my skin like this one does. Curious - any differences when this ages? I'm not a fruity flavor kinda gal (more foodie or pink sugar vanilla yummy), but if Dolly likes it (and from what I've read she is more dark resin ho - pls correct me if I'm wrong Dolly) -- and LadyV, missdarlyncherie, Hearts are 3 thumbs up for it -- have no choice but to try this.
  9. Thanks Calii! And what an addiction indeed - but it's such a lovely AWESOME fantastic one. Tis true. And happy to say, no longer a squib. Good thing I WFH, been sniffing myself a LOT since my 1st order arrived last week - this isn't exactly behavior that is expected in public. haha.
  10. Great info Maroon! I could go for feeling like an (over the top!) rock star and adoration by the scores - bring it! Adding it to GUS list or DHEAS, still so torn. I have Cougar in trial but haven't been able to test properly at all. This weekend it's on my list for a solo test - ok, maybe with LP Pink just for extra 'flavor' - we'll see. Hee!
  11. Very cool Lyric! Have you tried LP Pink yet? I've only had chance to sample a few - but so far these 2 are my top loves. I know there's a sep thread for LP Pink, but confess my love @ it. Sugary wonderful pink warm goodness. If you want to layer with Buttercream LAM though it's awesome alone), the 2 get along really well. But I feel the LP Pink adds a bit more warmth and mystery - which isn't expected from a Pink I think - but I feel it there.
  12. Early Aug/ mid Aug start? Do tell!!!!!!!!!! (no pressure)
  13. Yay - muahahahah!! Rose, I think you'll love it - I'm more of a foodie than a fruity scent person. Def give it a bit to fully morph on your skin. It spiked some almost candied peach at 1st app and sniff but then settled in VERY well. The selfies are so good - more self confidence and a def small 'hit' recently (in general LAM thread). I also feel more calm when wearing, which gives me more self confidence etc. Must always have my LAM! Everyone must order this so maybe it can go PERM. And though awesome on it's own - have already layered LAM buttercream peach (BCP??) with LP Pink (just a tad) & LP Rouge with LFM (just a tad). It harmonized well with those 2. I felt (and smelled) sexy, sensual, feminine, flirty - kind of a 'look at me' but again subtle (will play later w/ amping up dosing).
  14. Ok this may seal it for me (not the powdery smell bc I don't like that on myself) but the vanilla and playful - both I like. Does it smell a bit like LP Pink or another LP fragrance? Is there a sugary feel to it after it a few hours? I've found so far it takes at least an hour for an LP scent to 'settle in' fully on myself - if I sniff test too soon it's very different from the final, more longer lasting result. I think OCCO may have to be on my 3rd order - as I MUST have - but MUST check out either DHEAS, Topper (that thread is helping me decide) or Lumina for extra boosters. Update- just ordered OCCO Ambrosia and OCCO Pink in samples. Heee! Will post when can test drive and give review.
  15. Love love this forum - free therapy (I'm in!), tried & true & honest skincare advice (I'm in!), information on LMC & other goodies (I'm in!) - and of course #1 - discovering LP. Just the few things I've tried (very very few to date) have felt more empowered and self-love than in awhile. So muchas thanks to ALL and to Mara!! (yup I just mixed Spanish & English - bc we can do that here). Is there specific thread for skin actives/ skin care? I'm sure there's something specific - but my eyes are getting blood red from all my obsessive reading on the forum.
  16. I *think* lemongrass is also good for clearing out some neg energies and calling forth the good ones. So it's a muti-purpose tasker. I love some lemongrass in certain blends. Hi Vlad - I know this is older post but love this review. I have LP Gold in trial - on my list to start testing soon - but has moved up on list due to this review. Gracias! Hi IrishEyes - any updates with it having aged a bit now? I've been reading forums and so many indicate that aging can be key to allowing scent to develop more.
  17. Hi Lyric!! I am in love with this scent - I wasn't sure at first, but my love grows by the day. Feel free to check out my recent reviews/ posts on the general LAM thread, which I should probably rename them to: LAM, how I love thee - let me count the ways. Just for selfies alone and for scent - kinda sweet, kinda innocent with a dose of naughty (subtle but present). I have sample BAMs (non buttercream peach/ originally vanilla & honey) which seem to dry down to powdery smell which I don't like on myself. So glad I still have my 1 LAM sample with FB on way soon. And I agree - Mara must keep making until we can hoard enough for like the next 40 years or so. Right now, this is on my list of 'must ALWAYS' have. Love your avatar- huge fan of Pink.
  18. I know I *must* find a way! I've been curious @ LMC (if that's ok to abbreviate name) -will have to check it out more. In Beccah's blog, she also wrote @ Skin Actives - must check out that too. I have quite a few finds from Makeup Artist's Choice - mainly at home peels (can get great lactic acid peels for 1/4 cost of one in spa and bottle lasts several peels). But I haven't been that thrilled w/ their day to day stuff - granted have really only tested peels (lactic 40 and 55%, mandelic acid 25%; radiance peels). Have had success w/ getting rid of prior sun damage - and they definitely clean out the pores. But... they used to sell the prep solution (which is witch hazel) separate from the peel 'kit', so you could get the actual peel for even less. Now it seems you have to get the bundle, which doesn't make too much sense to me.

    Seelie

    I'm curious - for those who said they wanted to let this age a bit - any changes? I'm not a floral fan typically (more foodie or sultry or sweet) but am very intrigued by description and intent. I have a trial vial, going to sniff and self-test tomorrow. Hoping I'll like but as I'm really loving pheros etc. wondering what 'boosters' would go well with this if I do like? I know this is older thread, but definitely curious if anyone gave this a re-try and their thoughts?
  20. Great info - I also have anxiety/panic & have been trying to decide between topper and dheas. Any experience with Lumina? I can only get one FB of sep phero and/or cop this month - so trying to decide between OCCO (straight cop), Topper, DHEAS, or Lumina (all straight pheros I think but all w/ difft effects).
  21. Thank you - apologies to forum - feel free to move post/ remove topic. Is there an OOPS emoticon?
  22. HI all, If there is already a thread on this & I missed it - please move as I don't want to create extra topic. I'm a fan of frangant waters & would love to hear everyone's take on the fragrance & experiences (face/body hydration, how long hydration & scent lasts and takes on the scents). Also any selfies due to uplifting or other fragrant properties. Any experience/ recommendations with magickal intent - like other waters - florida water, queen hungary water etc. Luckily, FP gives magickal intent of ingredients like with all else - gracias!!

  23. How fruity vs. lemony/vanilly/cakey is it? I know it depends on skin chemistry but wondering. I like fruit but not if it's like spikey or candied (can't find right words), but if it's like a lemony creme brulee (with berry hints) or something - well that would be awesome. I like lemongrass and/or lemon sometimes on sweet smells to 'cut' it a bit - so it's not dripping sugar - so it's like a balance of 'yea I'm sweet, but also have an edge'. Or if there is another scent to compare to would be helpful. My 'try' list is growing... must... manage.
  24. Hi Fatale - how would you describe your 'selfies' & how you feel with each of these? I'm curious like Rose as far as any 'hits' - types, even if small ones. I haven't tried OCCO yet- it's moving it's way to top of list. I can only get 1 for now (or awhile maybe even). How much do you use? So far I'm leaning towards Pink (bc like all the pinks I've tried to date), but White sounds amazing too with vanilla goodness--- so torn!
