Store Statement: Limited Edition


Last Friday a new LE collection came out. With quite a good selection of items in my opinion and of very good graphics, I'm really satisfied with the graphics. Aaaand... They released again another version of the Vetements jeans. I think it was enough after two of them in the last two LE collections and a black version in the Gift-O-Meter but it seems Stardoll is still obsessed with them.
Here's what the two new floors look like (although most of the things are already sold out now).



Unluckily I was at class when the collection was released and get home too late for my favourite items, so I ended up not buying anything, it wasn't worth it paying for a Superstar membership for what was left. But here it is my selection of the items I liked the most! (The interior rooms are quite nice too).

And last but not least, some of the lucky and stylish dolls out there who got their hands on the limited clothes.

In order of appearance: Mery.- wearing LE Silk Midi Dress and Pantashoes; janetteLow wearing LE Lace Bralette and bornthiswaay wearing LE Striped Wide Leg Pants and Pantashoes.

In order of appearance: oayes wearing LE YSL Inspired Sweetheart Blouse, SS2017 Handbag and Velvet Chokermangunmeetan wearing LE Nude Tulle Top and Nude Tulle Skirt and Vuides. wearing LE Pantashoes.

Splendorous: Affordable Make Up (II)

If you remember, last month year I did a post about Affordable Make Up, consisting in buying the minimum amount of make up to create different looks spending the less amount of Stardollars possible.

First, you will need to prep your face. I won't copy/paste the things I said, I will just give you the link to the previous part: Affordable Make Up (I)



Okay, and once you have your face contoured and highlighted, with long lashes and fuller brows... Let's start!

Neutral, brown tones
This look consists on a natural make up, but something evident. Meaning that you can notice you're wearing make up. It can go with more sophisticated looks for the day. I will do that with brown tones.



You will need:

- Eyes
This time the eyeshadow must be noticeable. We start with a mid brown (a little darker if your doll has darker skin) adding it from the middle of the eye to the end and putting it above the crease, with only one layer. I'm using Dot Milk Chocolate Eyeshadow. Then with the same shadow we apply multiple layers only on the lid, the closest we can add it to the lash line. Next step is adding some glow to the inner corner, so we use the same white shadow we used on the first part (Dot Royal White Eyeshadow) just on the inner corner.

We are using some eyeliner this time as well. And what's more necessary than a black liquid eyeliner for creating a perfect wing? Nothing, let me tell you. It improves ANY make up look. I'm using the Dot Black Madness Eyeliner to create a thin wing. To do that I start from the wing, clicking on the upper part and slowly going down until it draws the line on my doll. Then I elongate it until the mid lid. And finally, the last step for the eyes: a little bit of white on the bottom part of the eye, to illuminate the look. We can use the same white eye pencil as on the first part (Dot Royal White Eyepencil).


- Lips
Again, we can use one of the free lipstick that the Beauty Parlor provides us for this look. Beauty Parlor > Face & Body > Mouth. Instead of going for nude lips, this time we will add a little tan shade on the lips. The best one to do that is the second one starting on the right.


Bold, red lips
The one for the night. Obviously you can wear it for the day as well (check my Splendorous post about red lips clicking here), there are a lot of different options when we're talking about make up. The thing is that here, the lips are the center of attention, in a dark colour for being very visible during the night.


The things you need are:

- Eyes
As the lips are the feature that is going to be very bright, we will do just some shadowing on the eyes. We can use the same Dot Milk Chocolate Eyeshadow that we used on the previous look on the corner of the eyes to add some deepness and then just add a little white eyeliner (Dot Royal White Eyepencil) on the inner corner. To top it all off, lots of mascara to elongate the upper lashes and using it on the bottom lashes as well, using the same mascara we used to prep the face (Dot Black Madness Mascara). If you own fake eyelashes you could add them as well, to give more power to the look.


- Lips
The only trick for the lips is to go full red. Just visit the Starplaza and choose the red shade you like most. My advice? Don't go for a very bright one or for a very dark one, cause eventually you will get tired of it. Instead, choose for a mid-red, powerful but nice. My favorite is Dot Red Velvet Lipstick.


And that will be all! This is in my opinion, the BASIC MAKE UP PACK you should have in your Beauty Parlors, or something similar. In total, only 49 SD !
