What ever happened to that perfume competition thing? You think they'd post a video talking about which fragrance won or something.

There is another thread here that states the full size fragrance is not available now. Blush is contacting the purchasers with an offer to rectify this matter. As the creators of Skylark, Elle and Blair owe their customers an explanation--preferably via a video. As for me? I fell into the trap and ordered back in July. I am now glad that events are unfolding in this way. The ingredient list is of synthetic elements. I am now using only natural and organic fragrances which, I feel are better for me. I am counting my blessings.

We did not even get to see the "special" bottle.

Wow! I just saw this in the comment section of Elle's video 1 week ago · Shared publicly

Blush.com just called me to tell me that I will not be getting a full size perfume bottle. I would have never paid that much money for the three rollerballs. I paid that much because Blair and Elle went on an on about how we would be getting a full size perfume in a pretty rose gold color. I can't believe Elle and Blair are letting this happen to all of their loyal viewers who watch their videos and support them by buying their perfume that they raved about. I normally don't buy perfume that I have never smelled before and most people don't. But we trusted Elle and Blair and got disappointed. Please fix this Elle and Blair.  poor minions

To be fair that is down to personal taste, different people like different scents, so there's gonna be people who do like them, or at least like one or two of the scents. It also depends on how they react with your own body chemistry. Ones that smell amazing in the bottle can smell terrible on someone if they don't react well with someones skin and visa versa.

Ok so Elle and Blair are barely filming anymore. There have been no videos about their phone cases or a new book or anything Skylark related....what the hell are they doing? Skylark COULD have been successful if they had released a full line or bought out a new product each month.

I used to like Elle and Blair and with their videos,phone cases,books and make up line they looked like they were going to become successful (minions)but the problem is they didnt keep building the hype. I bet they have lost alot of subs which is also potential business. But then again they are seeming to spend spend spend and not actually work

Apparently Blush.com emailed or called everyone and told them that they "couldn't decide" on a fragrance so they weren't releasing the full size and offered them either another set or a refund. Ummm... Ok. :? I still think Elle or Blair should have done an explanation video about it. At least everyone got a refund.

^^^ I think it was just a partial refund, it was posted in another thread that Blush.com offered another trio or $30 back, People paid $60 for the trio and full size.

I think there just weren't enough people voting/ buying the trio so they realised that there was no point releasing the full size, there wasn't enough demand. The whole point was that they would make the one with the most votes so that E&B wouldn't have to decide themselves. Even if they couldn't decide why not make all three scents but in smaller amounts e.g. 1500 of each instead of 4500 of one, and put one in the original bottle, one in a silver version of the bottle, and one in a yellow gold version of the bottle or something like that.

OMG i would have been SO pissed if I only got a partial refund. But I guess if you were stupid enough to buy it in the first place then you got what you deserved lol.

I agree. But at the same time, $30 for 3 rollerball perfumes isn't that bad. I think it's funny that they offered another set of rollerballs or the money :lol: Who in their right mind would get ANOTHER set of the failed perfumes?

I heard a lot of people complaining that their rollerballs came already more than half empty because the quality of the caps was really shitty..

Yeah, it's too bad when your minions don't shell out enough money on your overpriced sample to be able to afford production of the actual item!

Both girls have not mentioned anything about the situation of the makeup line. They should at least have said that it did not work due to these reasons. Also, they could have mentioned if they will work with someone else and continue their line. Acting like it never happened is not a good idea and it makes you look very unprofessional.

Additionally, they had to make an explanation to people who bought the rollers and that the money was going to be refunded.

You just cannot act like a whole makeup line does not exist! This is their job and they should take it more serious.

I was wondering the exact same thing. There was something mentioned about them bringing out another eye shadow palette, but that was a long time, maybe last year. I think it's safe to say that skylark has gone bye bye.
