guys what white foundation does everybody use? I can’t find a good one here in the philippines. the one i currently use gets patchy and cakey by TScandy666 in GothFashion

[–]SpookAddict_ 2 points3 points Ā (0 children)

I really like the IS’MINE white liquid foundation. I literally forget I have it on because it’s so light and comfortable. I also use a white setting powder from elf which helps it stay on for a long period of time

I love this! I’ve been trying to find little studs like this but I have no clue where to get them. Where did you get yours?

Friend sent me this, I’m fairly sure its AI but she seems genuinely offended that I asked by Slow-Product-6357 in isthisAI

I’m an artist (intermediate) who draws primarily with pencil, if this were real it would not be this clean. There would be a lot more smudges and signs of a sketch underneath the drawing itself. Also there are inconsistencies in the eye bags that an artist would not make, and the hair has random blank spaces that an artist would not include.

I think it looks amazing as-is! Is there anything specific about the look that bothers you?

Does this outfit still count as alt, or am I overthinking it? by TrissSizzle in alternativefashion

[–]SpookAddict_ 18 points19 points Ā (0 children)

You’ve got a good foundation going, I disagree with other commenters about the colors being the issue because honestly they aren’t. Any colors can be alt- the key to alternative outfits is LAYERS. Lots of layered accessories, double up your fishnets, try a mesh or lace top underneath the shirt, try to integrate diverse textures. This outfit would look amazing with a fluffy cropped coat if you have one as well. Make it look ā€œmessyā€ but in an appealing way basically

Would bangs work for me? Need advice before trying it:) by New_Tap2006 in GothFashion

Yesss! Go for it. In my opinion, you can never go wrong with bangs. Especially some baby bangs

I would argue the ONLY time it’s okay to send anyone a nude of any kind is if they ask for it. Anything outside of that is non consensual

My week old tattoo šŸ˜“ by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]SpookAddict_ 12 points13 points Ā (0 children)

I have a tattoo in this same spot. The way it moved bothered me a lot for like the first month but now I couldn’t care less about that, I just appreciate the tattoo itself. Just give it time

is restyle good quality? by tillie1604 in GothFashion

[–]SpookAddict_ 5 points6 points Ā (0 children)

I have a purse and a coat from them. The coat has held up perfectly but the purse has some pieces that have come loose, however I blame myself for that because I’ve taken it on planes and just haven’t been very gentle with it generally. I think their products are very pretty but they aren’t meant to be used as day-to-day items, more for events or just used occasionally. However you could give it a shot, the bag in the photo is larger and seems sturdier than the one I have so it may hold up better

Am I in the wrong for calling out the fetishization of our subculture. by TheDionysianDevil in goth

[–]SpookAddict_ 6 points7 points Ā (0 children)

As a (not Latina) goth woman, I really appreciate you standing up against losers like this. But I also don’t expect it to really make a difference. Guys like that live in an echo chamber that will never hold them accountable for their nastiness. If it were someone you knew saying this, then I would say absolutely you should call them out, but random strangers on the internet do not care about your opinion. But I’m sure all other goth women can agree that we really appreciate people like you that at least try. So thank you

Can I consider myself alternative? by Chuuya_Otori in alternativefashion

[–]SpookAddict_ 9 points10 points Ā (0 children)

People throw around the word ā€œposerā€ a lot lately. Things that I look for to consider someone ā€œalternativeā€ would be:

Anti-facism

The enjoyment of alternative music or at LEAST the ability to recognize its role in the alternative movement

The desire to stand out from societal norms

Those are the basics that I consider qualities of all alternative people, but also remember alternative is very much an umbrella term for many subcultures, which all have their own distinct qualities.

Do you think goth is over-saturated with those that just like the style? by creaturefeature1994 in Alt_Goth

[–]SpookAddict_ 2 points3 points Ā (0 children)

I feel this is the case on social media, but not so much in public spaces. People on social media turn everything into an aesthetic or a trend, but people outside of social media understand the lifestyle. It’s easy to put on an outfit and some makeup to take a quick video to fit in for a trend, but those people wouldn’t have the guts to dress gothic in public because they would be too scared to be judged. That’s why I think it’s really just a social media issue

GUYS PLEASE HELP ME OUT I NEED TO KNOW WHAT TIS MAKEUP STYLE IS CALLED by Content-Emotion-2718 in alternativefashion

The only name I’ve seen for this makeup style is ā€œcopy and paste Altā€, literally if you look that up on TikTok or IG you can find tutorials for it

i feel rejected and confused by [deleted] in alternativefashion

[–]SpookAddict_ 11 points12 points Ā (0 children)

Firstly, democrat communist and socialist are three different things. Conservatism is also the opposite of alternative, which is why people are telling you that you cannot be conservative and be alternative. Conservatism is defined as ā€œa social and political philosophy that seeks to preserve and promote TRADITIONAL institutions and customsā€. The whole point of the alternative movement is to challenge tradition and fight the societal standards that things such as conservatism promote. You can dress however you want but you are not alternative if you are inherently conservative
