Makeup stall

The cheapest and most varied option, the makeup stall near Phoenix Park in Bes Pelargic offers blush, eyeliner, hair dye, lipstick, and nail polish, for &&&&&&&&&&&+1000 2Rh 10s each.

You can apply this kind of makeup to yourself or others.

Appearance

Blush creates the line, "Her cheeks are sporting a rosy pallor".

Lipstick creates the line, "Her lips are coated with a glistening <colour> shade of lipstick". Applying a different colour on top of it will make it "multicoloured" instead of the original colour.

Eyeliner creates the line, "Her eyes have been traced with a precise line of <colour> eyeliner". Applying a different colour on top of it will make it "multicoloured" instead of the original colour.

Nail polish creates the line, "Her fingernails feature <colour> nail polish". Applying a different colour on top of it will make it "multicoloured" instead of the original colour.

After one application, hair dye looks like:

Her hair has been coloured with streaks of <colour> hair dye.

After two or more applications of the same colour, it looks like:

Her hair has been coloured with <colour> hair dye.

You can apply up to two different colours, to look like this:

Her hair has been coloured with streaks of <colour> and <colour> hair dye.

However, if you add more of either colour it will eventually go back to only being coloured with that colour.

Applying more than two colours of hair dye will result in your hair being "coloured with multicoloured hair dye".

Having perfume applied will cause occasional chats about the scent. Unlike the perfume you can buy in bottles, it has a variety of chats, and lasts longer.

Perfume

Perfume is not visible when you look at someone, but instead causes occasional chats about the scent.

You can spray it on yourself or others, but it is pk-checked because the chats appear even when someone is hiding.

There are a few places you can buy bottles of perfume. The chats from these always look like, "The scent of <scent> pleasantly surrounds you."
