That's actually a big thing, if you're interested in this, check out information about Sesame Credit and Alibaba company. Not saying that's why it makes sense to forbid it, as there are lots of other ways to spy, but you can be sure this data is interesting for them (especially from Chinese people living abroad, too) - and for many other countries.

Very true, although I (German) always prefer my data in US hands if I have to decide. At least as long as the US remain a democratic state, lol.

This is the correct orientation! It was flipped in Etienne’s post as the photo seems to have been taken in a mirror. 
Correct orientation & uncropped - 

okayyy but reversed

goddamn queen it's giving sofia loren 

This woman is surreal. I really don’t understand what happened between the 2021-2022 period where she didn’t seem interested in the Hollywood lifestyle and going glam and now she’s everywhere casually dropping the best looks of her career. She’s always been that girl, either in full glam or street casual. 

I just think it’s “funny” how one of the largest nations on earth seem to only have two different political parties to choose between, and their candidates have to campaign for who they are and not as a representative of the party. Like. How can there only be two relevant parties after all these years? Maybe I’m just dumb, I don’t really know much about US politics I guess.

She did it for Midnights so I’m hoping she does it for this one too

So do we think there will be signed stuff or do we think Taylor is done doing that?
There weren't signed things for Speak Now or 1989 TVs but does that mean she just stopped doing them for TVs or she stopped doing them altogether?
I hate not knowing
 

They actually use the same lip liner for the majority of Lana’s looks (MAC’s Stone) but have different application techniques. Their difference in technique is actually the main reason why I prefer Etienne rather than Pammy.
Just to dissect a little bit, as a fellow licensed makeup artist -
For the lip liner, Etienne does a thin line to overline the lips and keeps a rounded shape. Pammy would do a thick line traced on top of the natural lip line and point it at the cupids bow. Not only do I really dislike the angular pointed look, but the thick line came across as so harsh and though she was tracing the natural line, sometimes it almost looked like she was underlining making Lana’s lips look smaller. Etienne’s rounded overlining makes Lana’s lips look full and plump, which I really like.
I also am not a fan of how Pammy does eyeliner. Instead of keeping an even or gradual thickness across the entire eyelid, she tends to have it thinner towards the inner corner and become thicker near the outer without an even transition, which causes Lana’s eyes to look almost lopsided and droopy. She also starts the wing way too high up on the outer corner of her eye, which can cause the angle of the wing to look misaligned at times too. Her wing also tends to be too angular and doesn’t come to a fine point at the tip, which looks harsh. Etienne’s keeps a gradual line across the lash line and his wing placement is right at Lana’s outer corner, making it a fitting transition to the wing, which is curved at the base and pointed at the tip.
Another thing Pammy does that irks me is her eyebrows are always way too heavy and harsh looking. The colour she chooses is too dark and she doesn’t blend them out well especially near the inner section, making it often look like they were drawn on with crayon or something. Etienne always nails a light and feathery, natural-looking brow.
Pammy’s contour can also look muddy at times, especially along the nose bridge and cheeks, making the face lack structural definition. Etienne is great at smooth contours that blend right into the skin.
The lashes are also another thing. This is especially evident in photoshoot pictures where Lana’s eyes are closed, but it seems like Pammy glues the lashes directly onto Lana’s real lashes instead of the lash line, which I really don’t understand. They also sometimes hang down at the outer corner, which is probably caused by the false lashes weighing down her natural ones since they’re glued directly on them, and so it makes Lana’s eyes appear droopy. I think Etienne’s choice of lashes suit Lana better and opens her eyes up making them appear big and bright.
I think overall, Pammy’s makeup comes off as too angular and harsh for my liking while Etienne’s is more smooth. It’s interesting because it seems Pammy prefers more of a “natural” style while Etienne likes a full dramatic glam, but because of Pammy’s application, it comes off as more of a unnatural “makeupy” look despite her using less product than Etienne does. For Pammy you SEE the makeup whereas for Etienne you see the MAKEUP, if that makes sense lol. Pammy’s makeup seems to sit on the face while Etienne’s blends together. Pammy’s application is just too harsh and sticks out more, even though Etienne’s style is more dramatic.
 
To compare, here are two of Lana’s pre-Grammy gala looks, one by Pammy and the other by Etienne. You can see the differences I noted above in these photos. 


Another comparison at the Grammys Awards, it’s a bit harder to see the eye makeup from Etienne because of the bangs, but you can still def tell the difference in the shapes of the eyeliner wing & lipliner, which are probably my two biggest critiques -

 
Of course, everyone has their preferences and I don’t mean to drag Pammy through the mud, I just think Etienne’s style suits her better, especially for red carpets. Plus he slays by giving us these behind-the-scenes glam mugs like for this event, luv him xx

LITERAL BEAUTY QUEEN 

LANA AND SALTBURNNNNN BARRY!!! LANA OSCARS OMFGGGGG!!!!!! AND SHE LOOKS SO BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING OMFGGGGGGGG SERVING VINTAGE BEAUTY QUEEN!!!!! I think she's there to support Jon Batiste who was nominated for Best Original Song!
 
ALSO I WANT HER TO MEET THE CAST OF POOR THINGS, BARBIE AND OPPENHEIMER THERE PLEASEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! 
 
Also this look reminds me of this one from 2013 which was also W Magazine party but before Golden Globes!

From last night, do we have more photos y'all? Mommy looks so adorable w this look 
 

no, i think she only currently has deals with target (although she has released spotify merch before.) also agree on the red folklore vinyl, it's the only one i have and i cringe everytime i look at it 

last variant (hopefully) is a clear target exclusive with the manuscript as the bonus 

I could see her dropping an edition of the album on streaming with all the bonus tracks on it the next day (like 3AM) or the following week to stabilize streams

exaclty this. It’s the same situation as Flipside and Is This Happiness. Both of those songs were iTunes/Target/Fnac tracks  that have never ‘properly’ been released

i'm surprised they haven't cracked down on artists releasing slightly different versions of the same album to increase chart sales, they cracked down on people (k-pop stans) buying the same single on different accounts by decreasing the weight physical sales have. I suppose it would be quite difficult to enforce, like would they make it so only the standard album version counted towards album sales? (genuinely curious, not looking to start another fight about album versions lol)
