Today, non-superstars seem to get nothing: clothes, rooms, accessories... and nice MeDolls. Make-up stores like DOT and Doree are Superstar-only, and many jewelry from Splendid is exclusively for Superstars too. Make-up and hair styling choices are very
limited for those who are not superstar, so how can you have great MeDolls without becoming Superstar first?
One of the biggest mistakes people do when creating a MeDoll is making it look odd or washed out by choosing make-up (yes, there's more than just lipstick at the MeDoll styler, just keep reading to see) and hair color that clashes against its Medoll's complexion. And no matter how much you accesorize it, you MeDoll will look off. So, to have a beautiful MeDoll, you need to make it have flattering features first. Read our guide to get advice for your Medoll and to have your Best MeDoll Ever!
1. First of all, choose your medoll's skin tone, eye shape, lips, nose, and face shape.
2. Now, go the the "Face" tab on your MeDoll styler. You'll find 3 shades of
blush under the picture of a doll's face. Even though this blushes are different from DOT's and do not give you color on your cheeks, they still give your MeDoll a polished finish. The lightest blush is too... light for any skin tone, so we won't use it. The dark and beige blushes work best... but for which skin tone?
- The beige blush looks great on fair, tan and light skin.
- The dark blush works best on bronze & coffee-colored skin.
While applying blush, please avoid choosing one that is too light or too dark for your skin! It looks too odd.
3. At the same tab, you'll find the Freckles option. The trick with freckles is to find a freckle color that fits your complexion and is similar or the same as your haircolor (example: red hair, red freckles). Try not to overdo freckles, especially if they’re dark and more noticeable. Another tip?: Dark complexions can look odd with freckles, so avoid them if you wish to.
4. Now, it's time to pick your hairstyle and hair color. Just like in real life, not every hair color suits every skin, so which hair color works best for your Medoll's complexion?:
1. Fair skin works better with hair colors that have a warmer tones. Avoid dark brown, which comes off as too harsh, or very light/ash blond, which washes you off. However, black hair color can be pulled off by this complexion – match this hair color with light eye colors such as blue, green and grey that brighten you up.
2. Tan skins looks great in almost every hair color, except white-blond, which makes you look like a fake Paris Hilton circa 2004 (and that's not good, trust me).
3. Light skin goes with every hair color, but look carefully which lipstick you'll wear or you'll look washed off (read more on lipsticks later on this post).
1. Bronze skin looks great with darker hair colors, but some edgy girls will be able to pull of the dark blond hair.
2 and 3. Dark complexions work best with dark hair colors such as rich brown or black. However, beware of sporting hair that has a similar coloras your skin! Auburn brown hair might work on a lighter brown tone, but not on dark complexions.
5. Now, it's time to choose your lipcolor. Like hair, not every skin tone works with every lip color, so here's what works best for you:
1. Fair skin works best with light pink lip colors. Avoid darker lip colors with violet undertones and the dark beige lip color, which washes you off.
2. Tan complexions look amazing in pink and violet lip colors, but avoid nude and beige lipsticks (they’re too similar to your skin tone), and don’t even think of wearing the dark violet lip color!
3. Light skin is pretty in pink and beautiful in berry shades, but please don’t wear nude and beige lipsticks, since they’re almost the same color as your skin, and the dark violet color.
1. Bronze skin looks gorgeous with berry and violet lipstick. Avoid pink and beige-ish lipstick, which don’t match you at all.
2. Dark skin skin looks its best with almost any color, but stay away from light pink lipstick. For a pop of color, put on a dark, almost-plum pink lipstick (as seen in the picture). For a nude look, try the beige lipstick!
3. For dark complexions, my advice is to avoid light lipstick colors such as pink or beige, and go for the win in dark violets, plum , and berry.
6. Every eye color matches everything, so I won't even go there!
7. Now that your MeDoll's done, let's see what we can buy for it at a bargain price at Splendid:
1. Piercing, $2: If you want it, why not?
2. Cat lenses, $1 each: on close-up they look weird, but from afar they look like an unique, bright olive eye color.
3. Diamond or Pearl earrings, $5: okay, okay, it’s not a bargain, but you can still buy it with your Play & Earn money. They make your doll look instantly elegant and stylish, and remember… pearls and diamonds go with every look.
4. Mouche (beauty mark), $1: it makes your MeDoll look glamorous and unique, and for $1, it's quite the bargain.
5. Oyster Pearl earrings, $3: if you’re not willing to spend $5 on the diamond earrings (see #3), you can get a similar, trendy and chic look for less with these earrings.
6. Hoop Earrings, $3: they make any look funky, sporty, and funny at the same time. Its pretty violet color is a plus.
7. Pearl Necklace, $2: this thrifty necklace might not be the classic pearl one, but for edgier girls who like to give everything a spin, it'll definitely work.
8. Hair Rose Clip, $2: This romantic clip brings girlyness and spice to any outfit.
9. Elegant Glasses, $1: Geek chic is totally in, so why not make your medoll trendy for such a low price?
10. Fake eyelashes, $3: Splendid gives us fake eyelashes for our eyes in three different lengths at the same price ($3). Buy this if you constantly try on mascara at DOT, because it is the same thing in different packages. However, beware: some eyes do not fit the mascara!
