do u smell like a fem bottom? in the name of twink beauty journalism, i asked 1000+ gay guys: whatās your signature scent? which culminated in my Gay Fragrance Matrixā¢ļø.
i have this theory that we reach for fragrance as a means to signal who we are and what we wantāand the data certainly confirms it!!
if you want a full breakdown of my matrix + the top scents beloved by the gays, i write about them on my substack and the link is in my bio. and if you want to be a part of my research āmany more matrices including a lesbian one!!āthereās a google form at the link in my bio š
on a very real note, fragrance can be such a powerful language to explore queer identityāso iām vv grateful to everyone who participated in my research š the overlap between queerness and beauty is larger than we think and itās time the brands start paying attention!!

Is your lip balm giving gay guy or straight girl? In the name of beauty journalism, I surveyed everyone from tasteful twinks to buzzfeed millennials and asked them: what lip balm do you use?
The end product: my Lip Balm Matrixā¢ļø- which Iāve been updating thanks to yall š itās filled with your fave lip balms from @glossier balm dot com to @experimentwrld softwear, and ofc I couldnāt forget aquaphor and Vaseline. I have this theory that your lip balm - likely the beauty product that youāre most loyal to, because itās reapplied quite often and carried around with you wherever you go - is a symbol of your taste, identity, and consumer preferences. This is the manifestation of that!
My personal faves: the @eadem.co Chouchou balms and the @necessaire lip balm. Lmk: what lippie are you most loyal to? If u want to be a part of my research, I made a google form and the link is in my bio. Much more to comešš

do you smell like a lesbian? š«µ
in the name of gay beauty journalism, i asked 10,000 (!!!) lesbians: whatās your signature scent? which culminated in my Lesbian Fragrance Matrix, a data-backed map of the perfumes adored by butch tops and pillow princesses alike. if you want a deeper dive into the top 10 lesbian fragrancesāand the number one fragrance that unites the lesbiansāi wrote about it on my substack - link in bio š
some interesting tidbits: the butches canāt get enough of warm, boozy scents; @maisonmargielafragrances emerged as the top lesbian brand; fig, ambroxan, and jasmine emerged as some of the most sapphic fragrance notes; on average, lesbians opted for more niche scents compared to gay guys.
next up: the bisexual fragrance matrix. the research is still ongoing, so whether youāre a lactonic lesbian or a toxic top, fill out the google form in my bio if you want to be a part of it. big thank you to everyone who participatedāand for the lesbians for letting this twink research the community š love yall!

raise your hand if youāre a bisexual that wears @diptyque papierā¦
in the name of twink beauty journalism, i asked over 12,000 bisexuals: whatās your signature scent? bi men and bi women disagree on basically everything, but lāeau papier made the top 10 for both. itās a very smooth, musky gender neutral rice fragrance thatās veeery spiritually bisexual, so this is very fork found in kitchen.
its wearers are 78% vers (obvi), and most of them are in relationships⦠fork found in kitchen yet again.
for the full twinkvestigation, click the substack link in my bio. lmk: are you a papier bisexual?? and if so⦠did i clock your tea? love yall <3

lmk⦠are you a sexy witch or a bog witch? either way, ur chic af.

this oneās for my femme fatale amy dunne bisexuals⦠i see you! <3
in the name of twink beauty journalism, i asked over 12,000 bisexuals about their perfume preferences⦠and an alarming number of yall want to smell like a s*xy disney villain apparently??
evil bisexual scents tend to strike a careful balance between sweet and dark⦠think dirty florals with strong projections. very angelina jolie in girl interrupted iykyk. some of the most popular ones: @diorbeauty hypnotic poison, @lushcosmetics lord of misrule, @initioparfumsprives atomic rose, @tomfordbeauty black orchid, and, of course, drakkar noir.
lmk if youāre an evil bisexual and if so⦠do you smell like a femme fatale or a menace??
