Just an update, still haven’t heard back from Facebook on unlocking my account, so there… continues, I guess, to be no Facebook page posts for updates. >_>

Just wait for Hair and Makeup Day.
Well there’s still tweets yu can do…! Serzly I think Facebook is having trouble ATM, so I’d cut them some slack. They’ve got a rash of politics. It’s kinda like scrofula, or impetigo, or scabies, only harder to get rid of because it has ground roots. If you think that athletes foot is bad, try getting rid of a bad case of Congress, it can take up to three years to get that cleared up!
no Facebook is having censorship trouble… and that’s taking up so much of the time for everything else.
Yes, I agree with you. It started out as perhaps a good idea, then became awful, and is now toxic, dysfunctional, and abusive.
Question: Is there special makeup she can use? I’d assume human makeup might cause a reaction.
Not just that, the colors would be TERRIBLE with her skin color.
Not necessarily! There are makeup artists who do amazing Halloween and SFX makeup with regular pallets.
Finding a foundation might be tricky, of course, but at the same time, you usually don’t go that hardcore when it comes to kids’ makeup anyway.
I’d definitely be interested to know how the makeup would affect Selkie’s skin, though, considering I can’t even handle makeup and I’m human. XD
She can wear plant-matter clothing and use “cheapy” shampoo and soap (I’m assuming since she was in a state-run orphanage, I doubt they have the budget for specialties) so I imagine having plant-based makeup won’t bother her as long as it’s not her gills. I also imagine whomever gets to do this wedding will start a whole franchise making $$ selling makeup to Sarnothi afterwards. Can you imagine the publicity of being the first to create a look for one?
Ooh, excellent point! I love that sort of worldbuilding stuff! 😀
I’m just glad they don’t use white Lead in the makeup, anymore. Some of the stuff that has been used for makeup gives me shivers.
I’m thinking that there probably would be some natural kinds of makeup she could use, especially for lipstick. It tends to use beeswax and spices, which should be fine. In general, since she can use shampoo and conditioners without any special stuff, I would think that general makeup would probably be fine, but always best to test it first. It seems that most of her issues are related to being unable to digest stuff rather than actually allergic to it. Since you shouldn’t ingest makeup, except for possibly a bit of lipstick, I would think it would be different. Looking it up online, blue chamomile is an option people use due to its high chamazulene content which produces a deep blue.
On that line, it does make me wonder about deodorant and sweat for sarnothi, since I doubt it was an issue underwater.
I guess since Sarnothi are public knowledge now, they’re no longer getting much of a “what’s wrong with your child?” reaction like they used to.
Love the name of the shop.
Me, too.
Thirded!
It is a clever name, while still nailing most people’s experience with shops that cater to the wedding set. Somehow renting a tux can be made nerve wracking…
Good luck dealing with FACEBOOK. My mother died 8 years ago and they still haven’t deleted her account, and we provided them with a copy of a death certificate.
Oh my goodness she is the most adorable undersea cinnamon roll!
Boutique of anxiety lol!!!!!!!
I laughed at this one as well. It’s great!
