THREAD OF BLACK LIVES MATTER / YEMEN / ETC PETITIONS TO SIGN twitter.com/pacinosangel/status/1276892836340867072 (there are threads within this thread also 🖤)
I don’t think you’re quitting babe. You’re regrouping and you’re learning to be better in what you do. It’s so hard cause it does affect you financially and mentally but it is very important work that you’re willing to do. ♥️ forever the most admirable content creator I’ve come across. Good luck with everything babe ♥️
You're doing your best 🧡 You have a great moral compass. Other people's jobs don't demand that they bare the burden of what marketing execs and CEOs decide, so it must be really tough to navigate. Your content is amazing. Your makeup style is fresh and beautiful💕
That's very true! Unless you're vey privileged you work where you can make some money and live your life... it's such a widespread "problem" and capitalism will never stop amazing me because privileged people really do think it's just a way of living! 😒
It’s such a tough subject!!! I think everyone in life has to decide what’s important and what ethical things they want to stand for in life and compromise is just a reality of that. No one can live perfectly so it’s important we’re all honest with what we give and what we take, so that people can see that these versions of life are ok... I hope that makes sense!!!!!
It's just so hard to not focus on everything and go down a really depressing rabbit hole 🙈 kind of like when in the good place they realise that all our actions are now inherently bad because it's all a chain reaction and capitalism sucks 😂
You're a great content creator, and it's nice to hear your thoughts on the industry you work in and that you've actually reflected on it. Not all beauty creators are willing to do so. I hope everything works out for you. The planters you've painted are so beautiful too, you're very talented ☘
Wow, thats kind of a dilemma... Thank you for trying to do the right thing and being so reflective. You're doing great, Raquel, I honestly love everything you're doing! Also I hope your mental health is better now and will stay that way. Lots of love from Germany!
Fast beauty is something I really been thinking a lot. There's a lot of talk about reusing and recycling packaging but no one talks about reducing. We don't all need to quit using everything and start using only shea butter but do we really need a serum for our elbows? I'm done trying to be perfect and going only for vegan and cruelty free brands, I think that there's so many other things to consider and the truth is bigger brands are the ones doing the most when it comes to sustainability and good environmental ethics. There's definitely little things we can do collectively that will have a bigger impact than a handful of people going 0 waste.
Such a tricky situation. It’s like you’re damned of you do and damned if you don’t. There’s an indie shop (I go through Etsy) from Russia that has some beautiful looking eyeshadows. I believe they ship worldwide. It’s called Sigilinspired. They even have sets of shade put together like palettes (I think they’re loose powders). Some of them look stunning. I really want to place an order. Shipping’s morning bad either. Thanks, lovely🍃🌸
Hello 💕 VE Cosmetics in a UK indie brand. Their Grimoire palette is gorgeous! Loved your video and you made tons of great points about fast beauty - I definitely need to be more conscious of how much makeup I’ve been bringing into my collection. Take care 💖

I think we probably think more about it because we get the PR and it's quite overwhelming...

I absolutely adore them! Have a drawer filled with their pigment, I need to do a proper swatch of them but their pigments are really INSANE 😍
Raquel Mendes I would LOVE to see that. It’s so helpful to see swatches/wear before purchasing.
