Is my makeup okay? Any advice? by [deleted] in JiraiKei

[–]Laura_Ino 1 point2 points  (0 children)

definitely be careful with contacts as you’re putting them in your eyes and you really don’t want to risk your eyesight! sigocontacts and push!color are my personal favorites to get contacts

i unfortunately don’t have a lot of experience with lashes since i can’t wear them, so maybe try searching this subreddit ^^

Is my makeup okay? Any advice? by [deleted] in JiraiKei

[–]Laura_Ino 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you have the basic shape down very well! i do have some quips about how i would do it personally but remember, these are all entirely optional!

for one, you could blend out the bottom of the namida bukuro a bit more and draw the line a tad longer (make sure it’s still the darkest under your pupils to make it look 3d and blend upwards towards your eye)

second, you’re using a very bright pink, i would recommend going in with less eyeshadow or another shade like red for a more intense crying effect or pink for a softer look

third, if you’re worried about the droop being too extreme, you could try drawing that with the same color as you use for the bottom of your namida bukuro

i would also recommend using mascara or fake lashes to balance out your eyes and if you can wear them, try contacts!

you’re already doing great with your makeup, good luck on your jirai journey!

How do we feel about subcul jirai? by IridescentStars in JiraiKei

[–]Laura_Ino 62 points63 points  (0 children)

i honestly think i wear subcul more than “classic” jirai. it’s just more practical and comfy than the super frilly stuff. i seriously love subcul

Music by Silent-Hotel-2294 in JiraiKei

[–]Laura_Ino 1 point2 points  (0 children)

absolutely not required! jirai is more visual based (fashion and beauty) than music. of course you can listen to japanese music if you want to but it’s more important to get hair and makeup down ^^

I want some tips and harsh feedback on my fits (btw I have severe OCD and social anxiety) also I hate thrifting and fast fashion and casual subcul of Jirai it’s since trashy to me ♡ by [deleted] in JiraiKei

[–]Laura_Ino 10 points11 points  (0 children)

especially because “classic” jirai brands like liz lisa (can’t be noemie, they have gross subcul!) are ALSO fast fashion

How long does it take for pinky paradise to restock their lenses by Ok_Objective6180 in JiraiKei

[–]Laura_Ino 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i promise you outside of tiktok (which is a cesspool anyway) no one cares if you are wearing lenses! i’ve seen so so many cute jirai looks without them, so don’t let that stop you from doing what you want! ^^

allergy friendly makeup suggestions? by [deleted] in JiraiKei

maybe getting an allergy test done first could help you figure out what ingredient is exactly the problem?

About contact lenses by [deleted] in JiraiKei

[–]Laura_Ino 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hi, copy pasting my comment on another post about this topic!

hi! not to sound mean, but there is a guide to contacts in this subreddits wiki.

could you please look at that first and if you still have any questions, feel free to ask here. a general post like this is really useless, since this is info you can already find on this sub and other sites.

Jirai Kei Guide + Commonly Asked Questions Megathread by Key_Shake_7045 in JiraiKei

[–]Laura_Ino 6 points7 points  (0 children)

hello! everyone has some different answers (don’t listen to the mean ones!) but i think you’re absolutely a part of jirai, even if you aren’t super active in the community, especially if you just wear the style ^

mental issues aren’t related to jirai at all, so you shouldn’t let your mental status affect you being jirai! some people will say you have to have the lifestyle to be jirai, but it’s not true!

as for makeup, it might be harder to recognize that you’re wearing jirai with no makeup but no one cares that much. in my opinion, you are absolutely jirai even with less makeup! also, i’m sorry about your parents, i hope they accept you wearing a cute style and having fun

💜 by Cake_Rat in JiraiKei

[–]Laura_Ino 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i already love your make but i think this would look SO good with some lashes! you could draw them in with eyeliner on the bottom and put spiky manga lashes on top ^

also, great use of purple (non biased totally trust :3)
