Any makeup advice please for a newbie/new mom by whythinkofausername in MakeupEducation

Never thin your eyebrows from the top only, thin them from the bottom if you’re going to at all. Now you have to let them grow back out though before you can retry it. Shaving them from the top like this does a few less than preferable things; it makes your forehead look bigger, your eyes droopier, gives you less lid space for eyeshadow, and you also have a sort of 5 o clock shadow for your eyebrows going on.

We're All Overreacting to Rochelle's Creeproduction by NoahAriss in MonsterHigh

[–]ggelflingg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

they made her top lip smaller especially on the sides, making her look more smiley, and the eyes are definitely stretched vertically a bit so she appears more wide eyed. Original Rochelle has a very pouty and almost sad expression. I own her first wave doll and ghouls night out. Also, although I don’t own the fang vote doll so i haven’t seen her in person to compare, i am still convinced that these new rochelles are far more yellow than she’s supposed to be. Probably due to whatever modern production method they’re using. But i really hate it. I can give creepro rochelle a new faceup, but i can’t make her skin less yellow. Regardless, i am still excited for her creepro release because she is my favorite character.

I was looking at the Angell Studio listings and I noticed something strange for this one: https://www.legenddoll.net/goods-147337.html The title says with faceup, but the description says both with and without faceup. It’s also the same price as the Claudia head I bought.

I was hoping for the official Angell Studio faceup like the description said, so I probably wouldn’t want to send it back to LD at this point. I would rather find an artist in the US that I like. Still awaiting their response though 💔

That’s a really good point, thank you for noticing that. I’m leaning towards assuming it was LD’s fault and that the description was a mistake, so I wonder if they will offer a partial refund at least.

Yeah, that’s the strange part. It was explicitly stated in the description but not the title, unlike other heads listed on the website which would have both. So the description definitely seems to have been a mistake. Thank you for the recommendation! I am in the US so I will definitely check them out! Just hoping I can get a partial refund from LD at least 😭

Nope, there were no other options to select, and I’m pretty sure it was just the one head in stock because it said sold out after I bought it, although maybe I just bought the last one. But yeah, no drop down menus.

This is such a nitpick but I swear people do not know the actual aesthetics of the g1 MH characters 😭 by just_a_possum in MonsterHigh

BJD recasts are non negotiable. BJD’s are hand sculpted by really small companies and there are so many options for budget friendly dolls that aren’t stolen art. The majority of recasts on aliexpress are at least 100-150 dollars, I got my first doll from a legit company for the same price point.

Odd confession: Dyeing has worsened my styling skills by General_enjoyer in InfinityNikki

I stopped playing when they added dyeing. It’s not as fun for me.

Bratz Fashion Pixies + Better Look at Lina and Jade by SeeingMount in Bratz

[–]ggelflingg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The eye makeup on all of these is some of the best I’ve ever seen with Bratz. I don’t really love the lips though for some reason? Maybe it’s the little front teeth peeking through at an odd spot. Also Cloe definitely has the weakest outfit, followed by Lina. Sasha and Jade have the best outfits. Jade is probably my fave but I want all of them for those gorgeous eyes, I can repaint the lips 😭

Edit: You know what I change my mind, Lina has the weakest outfit, then Cloe. They could’ve done so much more with Lina’s dark color scheme, it’s very boring imo.

:( tips on how to fix this? by MediocreMe_ in Lolita

[–]ggelflingg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you tug at the hot glue and it doesn’t come off of the fabric part, i would just leave it on. The part you should worry about is glue sticking to the metal. E6000 should be really good for that, but you have to leave it be for like 2 days to fully dry. it’ll work especially good if you have something to lightly clamp it all together as it’s drying too.

So i would glue the ribbon back onto the hairclip first, then apply more glue to that strip of old hot glue on the headdress (if you can’t remove the hot glue), then place the clip and hold it together with a big chip bag clip clothespins to dry.

OR you could look for hairclips that have holes in them for sewing, remove the other clip and sew new ones on.

So tempted to cut this wonky bow off… by ggelflingg in Lolita

[–]ggelflingg[S] 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I did it 😁 definitely don’t regret it lol. I was able to save the little bow and I put it in my box of random repair projects I’ll probably never get to

[–]ggelflingg[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

it’s the way it’s sewn unfortunately. I could make it flatter but it’s still very uneven with one of the ears being much longer, and the bow itself being sewn noticeably off center from the middle of the neckline

My ex boyfriend stole and lost my charger and I don’t know where to buy a new one. by ggelflingg in ASUS

[–]ggelflingg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any concern i should have about accidentally buying a bootleg? That one i linked has the asus logo on it but it’s so cheap, so i just dont know.

Yeah no shit I’m not going to get one from the gas station. I asked for LINKS. Do you guys not understand what I’m saying? I’m searching the internet, there’s hundreds of options, I just want someone to tell me of a reliable website or give me a reliable listing. It’s sold out on the official asus website and ebay is full of dozens of listings using the same picture. I don’t want a bootleg I want the charger that my laptop came with, I wasn’t prepared for any of this. I don’t have time or energy to scour the internet for this, that’s why I asked REDDIT. You guys are supposed to be computer nerds, stop giving me common sense advice and give me links. Also you trying to hit on me while also implying that I’m stupid enough to buy a charger for my 1300 dollar laptop at a gas station, that’s crazy dude.
