“Sephora will start selling entry-level witch kits in October.”
All right witches, listen up.
Sephora is to begin selling a “witch kit” next month featuring a tarot deck, fragrances, a sage bundle, and a rose quartz crystal for $42.
I think it’s wonderful that witchcraft is making a resurgence, but what I don’t think is wonderful, is that a huge corporation like Sephora is trying to tap into this market.
Why don’t I like it?
Because Sephora has their fingers in enough pies and generates over $4 billion in revenue per year.
Because witchcraft produce and supplies should be provided by people with knowledge on the practise(s) and who care enough to make sure their products are ethical, of a high quality, and non-appropriative.
Because Sephora will be stealing business from actual witchcraft and occult centric shops who likely don’t make huge sums of money anyway due to the niche nature of the market.
Because Sephora doesn’t need the fucking money!
So, I urge you to share this post and refrain from purchasing this “entry-level” witch kit (and any future witchcraft related product) from Sephora. Instead, support small, witch-owned businesses. We need you and we’ve got your backs.
Also they’re selling the sage for “smudging” which, as we all should know, is a Native American specific practice. Seeing sage (white sage at that considering it’s fucking endangered) marketed by a big corporation is especially unsettling.
If you’re looking you get intro witchcraft, don’t buy from a huge money mongerer looking to be “trendy.” Support a small witchy business! Check out the many shops here on witchblr. Especially consider buying from witches of color!

From May to July I worked on this big fantasy worldbuilding project and had like twenty documents of different world notes, plus the first chapter more or less planned out. I went to camp and planned on finishing the first chapter to share with my classmates for critique, but then I stopped halfway through at the first action scene and went all lolnope because I highly disliked what I’d written. Only today I finally went back to that first chapter and honestly, reading through it… it’s not as bad as I originally thought?? Like, yeah it’s unpolished but there are bits in it that I like (and past me was good enough to actually leave editing notes for myself for once so I wouldn’t have to squint at a certain dialogue scene or smth and be like “wtf??”). When I reached the beginning of the action scene I actually got frustrated that there wasn’t more to read lol, which isn’t something I think I really experienced before with my own writing. So now I actually have motivation to go back to that big project and keep working at it. It’s a fun and exciting feeling. 😀
I love how confused adults get with our humor and vine refrences cause like i just replied to my brother with ‘four female ghostbusters?? the feminist are taking over!!’ and he just screams ‘IM AN ADULT VIRGIN’ and my mom still has no idea what we’re talking about
Sometimes I fear we accidentally created a new language
why fear it when you can embrace it
We actually have…an updated version. You know how the idioms we have are said but never finished because it’s assumed that as long as the person you’re talking to speaks the same language they’ll understand the rest?
Ie. Jack of all trades master of none->better than a master of one
Great minds think alike->but fools rarely differ
Over time the second half gets lost because it’s been passed down orally so some idioms meanings have been warped but that’s a different conversation (ie. “Blood is thicker than water” is actually “the blood of the convent is thicker than the water of the womb”)
Vine are like that for us. You only need say the first half and every person under 30 knows the second half, no context needed. It’s cool as shit how the internet has done that for us. Vine sayings have become idioms in a sense…
road work ahead??
every Wednesday I tell my friends “it is Wednesday my dudes” and they scream
what i mean by that is that many repressed or questioning lesbians don’t think they can be a lesbian for whatever reason, but they want to be. they’re drawn to the word lesbian, lesbian culture, and lesbians in general. they dread the idea that they’ll have to settle down with a man eventually. they wish they could be a lesbian so that they’ll have a reason to not be with men, but they think they’re not cool or brave enough, or that maybe they could possibly, theoretically love a guy at some point so calling themselves a lesbian would be wrong. so to all those questioning wlw out there, i’m telling you right now: if you want to be a lesbian, you’re probably a lesbian. you’re allowed to be a lesbian.
This really spoke to me and basically defines how I felt until I came out!
