So when I was first on this site I was totally working on being gyaru or a type of asian fashion, however I'm still finding it difficult and i am still confused as to what kind of styles should I try?

I mean I really need help on alot, for instance the eyelashes is a bit hard to get done, I'm not sure what girly short hairstyles there are. and I'm more of a total gamer who dresses mostly in jeans. I love showing my shape, but I don't like wearing dresses or skirts. 


I think basically I need help wondering what styles can I pull off with shorts, jeans, short hair, and etc?

Hey, that sounds like a perfect base for Ora Ora Gal (which I LOVE by the way)!

May I just link you here? You can also download the first issue of my favorite magazine Soul Sister there, which you could consider the "bible of ora ora and tsuyome gal" :)


As for eyelashes.. you probably just have a bad glue. When I started using falsies, I got frustrated because I thought I was just too stupid to put them on. However, the glue makes all the difference. Try Duo eyelash adhesive, it's one of the best glues out there imo.

Hm, it's not that hard xD maybe your falsies are too stiff? That's probably not good for beginners... can you describe what problem you exactly have?

Woah a tomboy gyaru would look awesome!
I imagine it being like this image (from the 'Shibuya Kei' thread here http://www.myasianfashion.com/forums/display_topic/id_3187/page_1/)


But with a pixie cut hairstyle? Like this 

But perhaps with a bit more volume so it doesn't just look flat. Should probably still put some hair accessories in their too.

You could try basically making a style to gyaru that is like Ouji (prince style) is to Lolita!
Man I really want to see someone try this now!

I guess just putting it on my eyelids. Or maybe im doing it right but it doesnt look like it? Or because i didnt put the eyeliner on first, because most tutorials say put on eyeliner first

Oh wow that's awesome, i think i can totally put it off. my hair is full and thick so pulling off a bouncy, volumized short haircut will be easy.

Haha yes, I also put on my make up before applying falsies! You can still correct the line after you put the lashes on, but as a base you should really draw it before :)

Eyelashes are something you need to get used to, I know that. Sometimes you probably think that it looks like a drag queen, right? But with the right type of lashes and make up you'll can't live without them anymore >:D

My personal favorites are Diamond Lash - Glamorous Eyes. I've tried a few other similar styles, but these are just the best imo. I haven't seen them look bad on anyone!
