SDCC Pullip Tokidoki Super Stella: Review




Today's review is on Pullip Super Stella! This bright and colorful super hero was one of two exclusive releases for San Diego Comic Con 2014, and is also part of the Tokidoki series! On top of that, she's a limited edition doll! (It is unknown how many of her were made.) As soon as I had set my eyes on her, I was just so excited and knew she was a doll I had to have! The bright neon colors on her stock outfit and wig just drew me to her instantly! She just looked like she'd be such a fun addition to have in my collection, so I didn't want to pass her up!




Pullip Tokidoki Super Stella Comes With:

- Star-shaped hair clip with lightning bolt and a Tokidoki character printed on it
- Satin hot pink posable cape with Tokidoki characters printed on the inside
- Sleeveless faux leather top with sequined Tokidoki logo
- Faux leather gloves with blue plastic lightning bolt detailing
- Gold belt with felt diamond "buckle" held together by velcro
- Blue skirt with white and yellow felt stars and a stiff, sequined under layer
- Opaque neon tights
-  Faux leather thigh high boots with blue lightning bolts printed on the front
- Yellow plastic staff with a felt diamond placed at the top of it
- Doll stand

Pros:

- The box she comes in is very sleek. (Like most of the boxes for SDCC Pullip releases are.) It's also covered in some very cute artwork of various Tokidoki characters!
- She's able to hold her staff! She has a hand that can grasp, similar to Sfoglia's and Varele's!
- Her wig is such a nice shade of blue with white streaks and darker blue accents in it! It's quite soft, too and is very manageable! (May vary from doll to doll.)
-  Beautiful silver glitter eyechips! Looking closely, you can also see flecks of blue and red glitter mixed in with the silver! They really are one of her most striking features!
- Her slightly tanned complexion is a nice change from the usual fair complected dolls!
- Simple yet pretty faceup! She has thick blue eyebrows that match her hair and give her a determined expression, brown and white eye shadow in her crease and the inner corners of her eyes, cleanly painted black lashes, pink blush, and opaque pink punch lips painted to make it like like she's smiling slightly! Her lids are painted a sienna brown with black liner.
- The wire at the hem of her cape allows you to bend and pose it in lots of fun ways!


Cons:

- There are some parts where her wig netting shows through. (May vary from doll to doll.)
- I'm not a fan of the material used on her top, gloves, and boots. It looks a bit cheap and can crease and wrinkle.
- Her boots in general don't look very sturdy and like the soles can come apart.
- She's unable to hold her staff while she's wearing her gloves.
-  The logo on her shirt as well as the diamond buckle on her belt can potentially get torn off. They aren't held in place very securely.
-The wire in her cape can poke out at the ends.


Neutral:

-  While her faceup is still nice, I still think it would have been nice to add more color or have more interesting elements to it. I would have liked it if they maybe painted her lids a fun color like bright pink with maybe blue or yellow liner, or maybe wing out her eye shadow into the shape of lightning bolts to go along with her theme. They could have done so much more with her!

- Her cape hooks on to little loops of thread on her top. For the most part, it works well enough, but they can become unlatched easily when posing her.

- She's pricier than most dolls, being priced at $150 on pullipstyle.com. This is probably due to the fact that she is limited edition, a San Diego Comic Con release, and a collaboration doll. If you have your eye on her, I suggest checking ebay and maybe seeing if there are any bids or buy it now listings that have her at a lower price. You might get lucky!


The Verdict:

Overall, I have to say I love Super Stella! I know she may not be everyone's cup of tea, what with her bright colors and the style of her costume being reminiscent of something Barbie might wear, but I think she's just so much fun to pose and play with that I'm not too bothered by it. I think she would also be very fun to redress in some other bright and funky fashions as well!

Pullip Classical Alice: Review



I've always been a huge fan of anything and everything Alice in Wonderland related, so it was no wonder that I was so drawn to Classical Alice! To be totally and completely honest, I really love all of the Alice Pullip releases to date, but Classical Alice bears the closest resemblance to the Alice that most of us are familiar with. (Though, if we include Dals, the Dal version is hands down the most Alice-y of all the Alices, but the Pullip version is beautiful all the same.) Because of that, I feel the name she was given is really spot on and fits her perfectly!



Pullip Classical Alice Comes With:

-  Headband with blue and white bow with cameo charm
- Blue dress with lace trimming on the sleeves and the hemline. Has a high neckline and a ruffled collar.
- White apron  with lace and brown bow detailing
- Black and white striped stockings
- A pair of black Mary Jane flats
- Pullip Classical Alice's trading card
-Doll stand


Pros:

-  Her blonde curls are tight and springy and much neater than expected! Not very much frizz at all! (May vary from doll to doll.)
- No wig netting showing through! ( May vary from doll to doll.)
-  Very elegant looking faceup! Her eyebrows have sort of a peculiar shape, being quite thick at the start of the brow and thinning out dramatically at the ends. They're also really straight for the most part with  just the slightest arch to them. She also has some smoky eye makeup, and it looks as if she has a combination of blue, brown, and possibly some pink eye shadow, and the creases on her eyelids are streaked with white and grayish blue paint. Her eyes are bordered with lots of long, wispy lashes! Her cheeks have a hint of coral blush on them and her lips are very natural looking shade of pink and if you look closely, you can see that there is a heart shape painted in a darker pink color in the center of her lips! It's similar to the way Dal Heiwa's lips are painted, but much more subtle.
 -  Her eyechips are really nice! They have a very thick black limbal ring painted around her iris, which consists of a pretty blue color streaked with black lines, and two white dots painted near the bottom of the pupils and a white line tracing the area where the lower part of the pupil and the iris meet!
- Her stock outfit is very simple, but by no means boring. Her outfit is very similar to the dress that Alice wears in movie portrayals and illustrations, just with a touch more frills and lace and some embellishments added here and there. Overall, it is still recognizable as Alice's dress and I really like that about it! I also love how she was given striped stockings as opposed to plain white or plain black ones!
- Type 4 Body!

Cons:

- Her shoes are extremely large for her feet. Most Pullip dolls tend to be given shoes that are too big for them, but her's seem to be the most ill fitting shoes I've come across so far. I ended up sticking some wadded up tissue paper at the toes just so they would help fit better.
- It would be a good idea to be as careful with her curls as possible and not to play with her hair too much. The curls can possibly become undone and  it most likely won't be very easy to fix it back to the way  it was.


Neutral:

- She doesn't come with much aside from the things that you see on her.
-  Her outfit is fairly well made and nothing on it should become ruined, but I would be careful with the lace used at the hem of her dress. It's possible that it can unravel if any thread is hanging from it.
- She's quite reasonably priced for a Pullip doll. I highly recommend buying her from either pullipstyle.com or jpgroove.com, as she is way overpriced on ebay and amazon. PullipStyle seems to have her at the best price of $112.95, but it's possible you can get her for less if they have her listed under a Dent Box Sale.


The Verdict:


I am very happy with this doll! She's a very beautiful doll and it's easy to see why she's such a popular choice among Pullip collectors! Whether you're a fan of Alice in Wonderland or not, Classical Alice is a winning choice and would be a wonderful addition to any collection, as well as make a good first doll for new collectors! She also would look lovely in different wigs, eyechips, and clothes, if you're looking for  a doll to make slight customizations to!

Another Dolly Family Picture!



I've never really been able to get a decent picture of my entire collection, but after one of my followers had requested to see an updated picture of my collection, I decided to set them all up together and try to get a good shot of them! It was an all day ordeal, getting them all into place and finding out ways to get them all to show up in the picture the best that I could, and then putting them all back. It was tiring, but also pretty fun at the same time! I'm really glad to finally have a clear picture of them all!

Project MIO & Update!

I haven't updated this blog in a little while, so I thought I'd post about  my newest Project, Project MIO! I've bought my very first Pullip Make It Own Face & Body Kit, and it'll be the first time I will be doing a faceup of any sort! So far, I haven't actually started working on the faceup itself. I'm still in the process of gathering materials, but here are the things I've got so far for her!

Face and Body Kit - I got mine in Fair and bought it off of Pullipstyle.com! You can also buy these kits at Junkyspot.com!
The kit comes with a face, head, body, an eye mechanism, eye lids, eye lashes, a pair of clear eye chips, and a total of six screws.



I got these eyechips from kirakirameanssparkle's etsy shop! Her eyechips are beautiful and so detailed! I'm so happy with them!

This wig is one I found off of ebay! Surprisingly, there's a lot of very cute wigs for sale there in the size 8-9!
And here are some very cute shoes and accessories I've found just from browsing through ebay, etsy, and other various sites! I'm going for a pastel goth look for my doll, so these were perfect! You'd be surprised at the things you can find if you just look around.  Shoes are from mimiwoo's ebay shop, necklace is from blacktulipshop,  and the bow is from Minty Minty's  Store Envy Shop!


Other materials I have and plan to use are Prismacolor Watercolor Pencils, Mungyo Pastels, Mr. Clean Magic Erasers, makeup brushes, and elmer's glue! There's still a few more things I'll need, but I'm almost there!


Also, reviews for Pullip Classical Alice, Pullip Super Stella, and Dal Vendettina will be on their way soon!

Pullip Regeneration Paja: Review


I recently had won an auction on Pullip Regeneration Paja on ebay! As most of you probably already know, Pullip Regeneration Paja is part of the Regeneration series that was released in 2012. The Regeneration series was basically a series that made up of re-released, updated versions of older, beloved Pullip dolls. Pullip Regeneration Paja is the new and remade version of Pullip Paja, who was released back in 2005! Unfortunately, I do not have the original Paja, so I cannot properly compare the two. (For those of you who want to see the differences between the original Paja and Regeneration Paja, I recommend that you visit  this page!) However, I will say that I am quite happy with her and think she's really adorable! Having Seen her pictures, I had always thought she was really cute, but I had no idea just how much so! 


Pullip Regeneration Paja Comes With:

- Felt dinosaur suit with snap-on buttons in the front and netted lining on the inside of her hood
- Yellow and orange polka dot onesie
- Yellow polka dotted socks with lace
- A pair of plush claw slippers
- Cardboard popup book
- A mug of coffee with Paja's name printed on it
- Plush crescent moon pillow with a small dinosaur sewn onto it
- Pullip Regeneration Paja's trading card
-  Doll stand


Pros:

- No wig cap showing through! (May vary from doll to doll.)
- She comes with quite a lot of little accessories! They're fun to use as props!
- Bright and colorful faceup that really stands out! She has thick rounded eyebrows that make her look cheerful and lively! Her lashes are a pretty salmon color that contrasts nicely with the yellow-green eye shadow in her crease! She has orange blush on her cheeks and bright orange glossy lips!
- Her eyechips match her eye makeup very well. They are green and yellow and have cute stars painted on them!
-  Her suit is very soft and too adorable for words! It really does remind me of a kigurumi , with the way that it's made and how loose and baggy it is! (Kigurumi are over-sized onesies with hoods made to look like various different animals and anime mascots. They're generally worn indoors and as pajamas. ) It's very soft to the touch and the snaps make it really easy to take off her suit and put it back on! It's also fairly durable. I have no big complaints about any of the pieces of her stock outfit in general.
-  I like that you have the option to have her wear her dinosaur suit or just her pajamas on their own!
- It is really easy to pose her even when she is wearing her suit! Most of the time, Pullip dolls with suits or costumes are plush, limiting the doll's movement, but you don't have to deal with that problem with Paja.
- You can place her on her stand while she's wearing her suit! The metal clasp that goes around her waist scrunches up her suit a bit, but it doesn't cause permanent wrinkles or  damages to it in any way.
- Her dinosaur suit does not cause any staining and is completely safe for her to wear!
- Her slippers surprisingly stay on her feet quite well! I have mine wearing both her socks and her slippers at the same time, so I'm not sure whether or not they help with keeping them on, but so far I've had no issues with them falling off.
- Type 4 body!
-She is very affordable! ( I won her for $80 on ebay, and she's sold on pullipstyle.com for $92.)

Cons:

- Her wig is unfortunately not the best quality. It is prone to becoming frizzy and it kind of has an odd texture and the ends of her hair seem to stick together, making it hard to brush. Her bangs are also cut a bit strangely and go past to where her temples would be. It's a bit hard to explain, but it does look kind of odd. They also have a tendency to stick up a little and I had to use some of my trusty anti-frizz serum to have them stay down.
- The eyes on her suit aren't glued on completely. I have no idea why they couldn't use more glue so that the eyes could stay more firmly in place. They can more than likely fall off over time.
- Her popup book is made of cardboard and can get bent or torn easily.


Neutral:

- Her eye lids are completely bare. There's no color and they don't have the usual strip of black liner painted on them that most Pullip dolls have. It's nothing that I really mind, as I feel that her faceup makes up for it.
- Her hair is really long and can get in the way, but it's easy enough to tie her hair back into a ponytail and tuck it away into her suit to help keep it in place.
- There were some loose threads hanging off of her polka dot pajamas and her socks, but it was taken care of easily with a pair of scissors.

The Verdict:

I'm a fan and I highly recommend getting this version of Paja! She's extremely cute and  much more affordable and than the original and she also has a Type 4 body, which is the best Pullip body type to date so far. (The original Paja has a Type 3 body, which is commonly known for cracking and breaking at the wrists.)  She really is a great buy, especially considering how much she comes with! She definitely would be a great choice for those who are new to Pullip collecting and are looking to get their first doll! I also think that she'd be a great alternative choice for those who aren't willing to spend so much on the original Paja but have had their eye on her.

Pullip Karen: Review



Pullip Karen is a vision of loveliness with her rich, chocolate brown curls, luxurious wine colored stock outfit, and her remarkably done faceup! Her entire look has a somewhat mature and elegant air to it, but it also is fun and interesting, and her expression makes her seem so sweet and innocent! All of these traits have been blended together beautifully and in such a way to where nothing about her seems odd or out of place! It's apparent that there was a lot of hard work and detail put into her design! She is truly an artistic masterpiece! 
  
Pullip Karen is a collaboration doll between Mitsukazu Mihara x Juliette et Justine and Groove. Her design was based off of the cover illustration of Vol. 45 of the Gothic & Lolita Bible from back in August 2012! The doll is very well done! She resembles the cover art perfectly!



Pullip Karen Comes With:

- Red and gold bow headband
- Satin top hat
- Two clip on hair extensions (similar to Pullip Varele and Pullip Canele's)
- Long sleeved white blouse with ruffles, lace, and a bow placed at the neck
- Satin burgundy dress with tassels, a strand of pearls placed across the chest, and bow detailing on the skirt, as well as a printed underskirt and black petticoat with lace underneath it for added volume.
-. Detachable ruched sash (I do not really know how else to describe it, but it is placed right around her waist and is held in place with velcro It could possibly be part of her skirt that they just decided not to sew onto the dress itself.)
- White stockings
- Burgundy heels with ribbon and organza flowers on the back of them.
- Pullip Karen's trading card
- Doll stand


Pros:

- The wig is a nice shade of brown and her curls are really pretty! 
- The wig cap does not show through! (May vary from doll to doll.)
- Her eye chips are a pretty bluish-grey! 
- As I've said already, her faceup is exquisite My personal favorite thing about it is the way her eye makeup and eyelashes were done It's so dramatic looking, and she has so many lashes that are done so perfectly and are placed so close together! I'm really impressed with how that was done! Her lids are painted beige, and the rest of her faceup is simple, consisting of light pink blush and glossy pink lips with painted teeth to balance everything out! Her brown eyebrows match her wig and are slightly lifted upward to emphasize her happy and friendly appearance!
-She comes with a lot of head accessories that are fun to mix and match and change out They're all very cute and very easy to put on her There was no struggle tying on her hat at all!
-The bows on her skirt and the strand of pearls are pinned on, allowing them to be removed completely or placed elsewhere on her outfit if you choose Her sash is also detachable, making it easy to modify her look a bit!
- The underskirt has a beautiful and eye-catching print that adds visual interest to her outfit!
- Her shoes are adorable I love the little ribbons placed on the back of her heels I thought it was a nice touch. 
- Type 4 body!


Cons:

- Her wig is really frizzy, though that's kind of to be expected with curly wigs Also, while most of her curls are soft, there were a couple of odd, coarse patches that I had to snip off Her extensions have the same issue with frizz. (May vary from doll to doll.)
- Her dress stains I was a little sad to find that it had left such noticeable red stains on the blouse she wears underneath it, so now it can not really be used separately on its own with other outfits. 
- Her headband (the one with the large bow) is pretty heavy and falls off of her head easily, even though the band is adjustable and it has a comb to help keep it in place, it does not help.
- The tassels can come undone easily if you touch them too much.
- Her shoes can fall off her feet easily.
-Her outfit is a bit hard to remove and put back on They do not come off very easily and you have to be very careful and patient Also, it is so annoying putting her outfit back together, especially trying to pull her dress over her blouse sleeves. My Pullip Karen's arm accidentally popped out of her socket and I only partially removed her clothes so I could put it back, and it was a nightmare to deal with. 

Neutral:

- Her price may be a little much for some on Pullip Style (she costs $ 127.95), but it needs to be taken into consideration that she is a collaboration doll, and that they always run for a bit more than non-collaboration dolls. Also ,she could be found for a slightly lower cost on amazon, so that would be a good place to look if you want a better deal on her. I got her for $ 99.93 on there with free shipping!


The Verdict:

Pullip Karen has a lot of character and is very unique! I personally think she's very pretty and I adore her! If you're a fan of Juliet et Justine and lolita fashion, this doll would be worth getting! Some may find her outfit overwhelming or even weird looking and unappealing, but that could be fixed with a simple change of clothing! She'd look really pretty in different outfits too, so do not be put off by her stock! It would be a shame to pass up such a beautiful doll just because of that.

Pullip Nahh Ato: Review


Nahh Ato's really special to me because she was an anniversary gift from my husband. I've always thought she was a very pretty doll and had my eye on her before he had bought her for me, so I was beyond elated to finally be able to include her into my collection! Currently, she's the oldest doll I own, having been released back in 2006. She is also my first Jun Planning doll! (Jun Planning is the company that had previously held the rights to Pullip dolls before Groove.) Despite being such an old doll and being sold out, she still can be easily purchased from ebay or amazon for a very reasonable price!



Pullip Nahh Ato Comes With:

- Chain headpiece
- Head scarf made from see-through material with a star and musical note motif
- Choker
- A pair of gloves
- Bralette
- Matching harem pants made with the same material as the scarf
- Magic lamp made of plastic
-  Plush lounge cushion
- Pullip Nahh Ato's trading card
- Metal doll stand

Pros:

- Beautiful raven black wig! It's styled in a cute ponytail with braids. The wig netting doesn't show through, either! (May vary from doll to doll.)
- Her eye chips are blue and green, which contrasts nicely with her skin.
- She has a very unique skin tone! There are only a handful of official release Pullip dolls with a dark complexion. She really adds some diversity!
-  She has a gorgeous faceup consisting mostly of nude colors on her lips and cheeks and a bright pop of turquoise eye shadow in her crease. She also has thick brown straight eyebrows that thin out towards the ends.
- She has lovely dangling earrings! It's not very common for Pullip dolls to come with pierced ears, so this is a very unique detail! They seem to be durable and not likely to break so long as you don't pull at them.
- Her stock outfit is very pretty with nice detailing! Her top is fitted very well and doesn't slide around like I had expected it to. Her pants are a little loose, but stay on well for the most part.
- The lounge cushion is cute and very soft! I really like that she came with her own piece of furniture, too! That's really different and not so common with newer Pullip releases! Her lamp is also really adorable too and a unique prop!
- There are absolutely no issues with her body, which came as a huge surprise for me, as she has a Type 3 body. There are no broken wrists or cracking anywhere on her! (May vary from doll to doll.)
- Easy to find and reasonably priced for an older doll! You can find listings of her priced from $155-$180. 

Cons:

- Her headpiece is very fragile, so be warned. It fell apart on me twice, but luckily I had some gold jump rings and was able to replace the ones that it came with and repaired it. I would also be careful with her chain belt, just to be safe. 
- Her headpiece can also get caught in her hair if you aren't careful.
- Her hair is pretty frizzy  and the strands that frame her face are messy.
- Type 3 body. While I don't have any issues with my own  Nahh Ato's body, it's still likely that other Nahh Ato dolls will face the common issues that occur with this body type.
- It's really hard to place her on her stand. The part that is supposed to grip around her waist is too big for her and unlike the stands that most Pullip dolls come with now, she comes with a metal stand with a sleek and somewhat slippery surface. This paired along with her lack of shoes causes her to slip a lot and it takes awhile to get her to get her positioned on it just right.

Neutral:

-  Like most older Pullip dolls, she has a shiny face. This may bother some people, but I don't think it particularly detracts from her beauty.
- She doesn't come with any shoes. I really wish she came with some flats or some crackowes. I think that would have been nice, but it's not that big of an issue.
- Her stock material is somewhat thin, but shouldn't really rip or tear too easily.
-She can't close her eyes. The older Type 3 dolls can only wink, but can't keep her eyes closed. The only problem with this is that if you want to take a picture of her with her eyes shut, you can't.

The Verdict:


I love Nahh Ato very much! She's so gorgeous and I'm personally so glad to have her! There isn't another Pullip doll quite like her so I believe she's completely worth getting! If you are looking into getting her, I advise you to get her as soon as you can before the cheaper listings of her become unavailable, otherwise you may have to wait awhile to find another good deal on her.

Byul Rhiannon: Review




I'm not the biggest fan of Byul and there are very few that I find to be cute. Most pictures of her that I have seen don't seem to quite paint her in the most flattering of ways, but I have heard people say that she just doesn't have a face that photographs well, so when my husband had won Byul Rhiannon (who, by the way, is a limited edition of 2,000) in an auction, I was a bit curious as to what she would look like in person. When she had finally arrived, I still didn't know quite what to make of her. It wasn't until my husband had unbound her from her packaging that I began to see her charm! She really does have a sort of endearing and babyish look to her!



Byul Rhiannon Comes With:

- Lace hat with feather and ball chain embellishments
- Steampunk mask that straps around her ears and ties at the back of her head
- Dog tags
- Fake black leather top with two golden belts and sleeves lined with organza
-  Striped arm warmers
- Sheer, ruffled pants made from organza (?)
- A golden bag with studs and functioning zipper
- Umbrella
-  Gold painted platform shoes
- Byul Rhiannon's trading card
- Doll stand
- Limited Edition Certificate


Pros:

- Cute, subtle orange faceup and uniquely painted lashes!
- Very affordable price!
- She has beautiful bright orange eye chips that really stand out!
- She comes with a lot of accessories that you can use to change up her look a bit!
- Her parasol is functional and can open and close easily! The rod is also sturdy and made of metal!
- Shoes have a strap across the ankle that help keep her shoes on her feet and prevent them from falling off!
- Eye mechs work well! No stiffness when moving them from left to right! (May vary from doll to doll.)

Cons:

- There are lots of loose threads that are hanging off of her stock outfit and it kind of gives it a sloppy appearance, in my opinion. This also may make the material prone to unraveling, so it would be best to be careful with that.
- Her dog tags are a pain to put on, being so tiny. You may land up spending a lot of time trying to pick up and string her tags back onto the chain before you manage to actually put it on her.
- Her body is very loose and floppy. (May vary from doll to doll.)
- Her wig is frizzy and gets frizzy easily and constantly needs fixing every time you try to pose her.


Neutral:

- While the zipper is functional on her bag, it's filled with stuffing and cannot be used to store things in unless you choose to remove it, but then it would loose it's plush appearance.
- It's a hassle trying to pose her with her parasol open.


The Verdict:

If you're a fan of Byul and steampunk fashion, I think she'd be worth getting. Despite her being limited edition, she's priced cheaply and you can find her on amazon for under $100, which is a pretty amazing deal considering all that she comes with too! However, her overall stock outfit can seem like a bit too much for some and can be overwhelming and even a bit frustrating to deal with, so keep that in mind before purchasing her.

Pullip Kiyomi: Review



After so long of not being available anywhere, listings of Pullip Kiyomi began popping up one by one like daisies on ebay and amazon! Even PullipStyle has her available for preorder right now! I've always liked Kiyomi and had wished to buy her but she was never available, and I figured I'd never get her with her being such a popular doll and that I would just have to forever admire her in pictures (a bit over-dramatic, considering she isn't even a sold out doll yet), but I suppose miracles do happen! Having her in person, I can see why she's the favorite of the Beary Fairy Series! 


Pullip Kiyomi Comes With:

- Plush bunny hood
- Pink bunny scarf
- Baby blue polka dotted top
- Multi-layered halter dress made from netted material
- Pink terry cloth scarf with purple bunnies
- Fleece polka dot hoodie with a functional zipper on the hood
- Pink terry cloth shorts
- Beige polka dot knee high socks
- A pair of plush slippers
- Pullip Kiyomi's Trading Card
- Doll Stand


Pros:

- Simple, versatile faceup! She has thick straight eyebrows that give her a sweet and friendly look, brown, pink,and white eye shadow, honey colored lashes, and soft pink blush and lips!
- Her glittery gold eye chips are stunning!
- Her wig is very soft and wavy and is a beautiful mix of golden brown and blonde! Really easy to manage and very little frizz!
- No wig netting showing through! (May vary from doll to doll.)
- Bunny hood is so soft and the bendable ears are fun to pose! It's also really easy to remove and put back onto her head, unlike with Dal Dalcomi's hood.
- Entire stock outfit is extremely cute! She can also wear it in different ways! For example, you can untie the ribbon that ties around her neck and tuck the top part of her dress under her skirt and keep her blue top on her, or you can remove the dress entirely and have her in her shorts and her top with her scarf tied around her hair, or have her wear her hoodie with it!
- No chance of stock outfit staining her!
- Perfect working eye mechs! (May vary from doll to doll.)
- Type 4 body!


Cons:

-  The material for the dress is very thin and can rip and tear.


Neutral: 

- Her joints squeak and creak when you bend them, but it's tolerable enough to deal with. (May vary from doll to doll.)


The Verdict:

I highly, highly recommend Kiyomi to both new collectors and veteran collectors that don't have her already! She's beautiful and is just about perfect with how easily manageable she is! Fans of the fairy kei style will adore her, and even if you aren't fond of fairy kei fashion, she's a very versatile doll that would look great in almost anything you put her in! If you decide to buy her, you won't be sorry!
