The Wednesday Question


We got lots of great YouTube recommendations last week, so let's keep this train a-movin' with more recommendations, shall we?

Who are some of your favorite beauty-related Etsy sellers?

Right off the top of my head, I love Savor and One Hand Washes The Other (though the bulk of her products are now available through her own website). Who are you some of your faves?

Note: This post is about sharing the love, not self-promotion, so please do not link to your own Etsy store here. Thanks for your understanding!

  1. Both SugarBeeBeauty and OpulentAlchemy offer great designer imposter perfumes and cologne oils and are quite cheap.

    While OpulentAlchemy has a wider couture selection, SugarBeeBeauty offers sample vials and also has a wide range of her own creative mixes. I love her mix of Tokyo Milk's "Let Them Eat Cake" and Comptoir Sud Pacific's "Vanille Abricot".

    1. Oooh, Keira, thank you! I'm a longtime lover of CSP scents and I actually just bought my first Tokyo Milk fragrance the other day when I posted about that (now expired) free OCC Lip Tar promotion on beauty.com! So it's fantastic to know that someone's making TM dupes if I end up falling in love with them. Thanks for for the great tip!

    2. OpulentAlchemy has most, if not all, of the CSP perfume line. She also has a large selection of Lush and Aveda. As I said, she doesn't do samples anymore, but her full-sized bottles are only $2 if you buy more 6 or more.

  2. I actually just came across GreenDaffodil, greendaffodilstudio.blogspot.com, in a local Metro Detroit shop (Kitty Deluxe, also on etsy), but GD has a link to etsy, too. Their lilac candles are really good and lilac-y and I found a soy-lavender lip balm that is so good it makes me want to start a hoard.

    1. Oh my goodness, YES! Julien, there are a zillion indie nail polish, cosmetics, bath and body and candle sellers on Etsy! It's actually quite overwhelming, which is why I asked this question! I love personal recommendations rather than just "taking a chance" so I hope to get lots and lots of recs (especially about the indie nail polish sellers because I just can't make up my mind about who to try first!). :)

  4. Ooh, great subject! I haven't tried any Indie polishes yet, because, well, who can make up their mind about where to start? lol I'm excited to go through everyone's recommendations!

  10. OHWTO is THE BEST. I love the custom scents and she also carries stock scents, big name dupes, etc. But her Black Magic cream cleanser is my lifeline ... my skin goes crazy without it!

    Indie makeup faves: Femme Fatale Cosmetics, Shiro Cosmetics, Black Rose Minerals, Detrivore Cosmetics, Darling Girl Cosmetics, Innocent + Twisted Alchemy, My Pretty Zombie, Silk Naturals, Kiss My Sass Cosmetics, the list goes on and on.

    Other fragrance faves: Darling Clandestine, Sweet Anthem.

    OrangeThyme makes the BEST lip balms EVER! - but beware, she makes a ton of scents/ flavors and many people develop a "gotta catch 'em all" addiction to them ^.^

  12. Three of my faves:

    Bubbles Up by Bethie B - Makes amazing soaps that look and smell like desserts. I can't let fall pass without ordering the pumpkin pie soap.

    Paintbox Soapworks - More unique, less foodie scented soaps and scrubs. My favorite is "Dead Leaves on the Dirty Ground," which smells like evergreens, burning leaves and cold nights.

    Solstice Scents - Primarily moved off Etsy to solsticescents.com, but she makes THE best whipped soaps, scrubs, body ganache, even facial products. Her general catalogue is very incense-y, but her seasonal collections ROCK. Fall usually brings pumpkin spice latte, caramel apple, blueberry muffin batter and the like... Holiday is even yummier! She also has literally the best customer service I've ever encountered.

  16. Smitten Polish and KBShimmer! KBShimmer can be found all the time on kbshimmer.com. Smitten Polish goes through periodic restocks, but they are definitely worth waiting for.
