What is indie makeup? Like perfume and eye shadow? Where do you find these?

Hello! Indie makeup is basically anything owned independently, it stands for “independent” and is used to described companies that produce products independently of outside control or mainstream/commercial companies. It's anything from makeup, perfume oils/EDP, bath and body products, nail polish, jewelry and home goods. I've found products organically through recommendations mostly! There are so many indie beauty companies. I can happily make some recommendations to check out as a jumping off point. When looking around just make sure to do some research before purchasing. With small business there is a bit more risk, and some companies operate with less than savory business practices. I always look into reviews or other customers experiences before purchasing from a new company.

Today is SugarMilk Co Strawberry Milk (Sweet strawberries blended with whipped cream and milk). This is one of my favorites and eerily accurate. Smells just like Nesquik Strawberry Milk powder.

10/5- Today is back down in the 60's and rainy, so more fall perfumes! I'm wearing BPAL Every day is Halloween (Skin-warmed sandalwood and toasted pumpkin settle into a gentle blend suitable for all 365 days of Halloween). This is one of my favorites. It's soft creamy pumpkin with a hint of spice, with a lovely clean sandalwood finish.
