Special effect in the new 5* makeup 😭

As a girlie who often pulls just for the makeup, I had to stop myself a bit after seeing the preview video.

As you can see from the pic, there’s special effect particle (rose petals) flying out of the corner of Nikki’s eyes, making the makeup a lot less versatile now. The rose petals should be a part of makeup since the rose petals change color in alternative makeup (red to purple).

Hopefully we can toggle to turn off the effect, but knowing infold… 🫠

Btw, I feel like the contact lens has similar shape to Tide of tears one, one of my favorite! Please don’t let the petals stuck to the lens!

maybe if the petals were tied to the lashes it would be smart, as it would keep the base versatile and would allow having the petals on other styles as well. lashes tend to be barely noticeable so it would be a one of a kind addition... but i doubt that it'll be so convenient...

its pretty and makes the makeups unique

asublimeduet

Yeah ngl I really like it. But it is a shame at the same time for many people, because we don't have many red eyes, especially that are f2p accessible, and it limits the versatility somewhat.

Isn't it tied to the base make-up😶🤔

lilyofthegraveyard

2 other sets with special effects - born flawless and where wanxiang weaves life - are tied to lenses.

Mouthofprotagoras

If it’s like BF it could be the eyelashes!

lilyofthegraveyard

bf is tied to the eyes. not lashes.

Awkward-Pie-4597

Wait really?? Oh damn, good to know

leiathrix

The base version of the lenses looks like the eye of Sauron... sick!

Cats_tongue

I thought so too!

Apparently it's a bullet... which personally kills it for me if that's true. No pun intended.

DazedandFloating

Lmao it does!

Illustrious-Survey

It's the stupid roses on Nameless Selfless all over again

therearealpacas

as someone who just pulled for the full evo of the unicorn outfit, i HATE special effects like i want my nikki to have a clean look, its the same reason i don’t apply eurekas they just make her look messy :(

fluffstuffmcguff

I didn't mind when they did this with Nameless Selfless because we have other purple eyes and the main special effect was on the foundation, but I am dying over here for more brown and/or orange options and this will make this set not very versatile 😩

lilyofthegraveyard

nameless selfless doesn't have an effect like that, though. am i missing something?

wwwl set and born flawless are the ones who have special effects, and both are tied to lenses.

With Nameless Selfless the effect is on the base makeup, not the contacts. I do think the eyes are kind of specific to more spooky looks. I just don't mind it as much as I do here, because we have purple eye variety already.

notbuni

how do you know its tied to the contacts? i know for Born Flawless it was, however that doesnt necessarily mean in this makeup set it is also tied to the contacts.

We don’t know yet if it’s attached to contacts, base makeup, or in the best case eyelashes. I had only mentioned that the location is at the corner of the eyes 😂

levelgrind

I’m bummed because I really want a freckled blush like this that isn’t ORANGE and doesn’t have any other special effects or drawings like just give me some plain makeup pleeease

dividedthoughtshelp

I like the base makeup the full evos def resembles a lot already z

absurdtheory_

I hope it is on the base makeup because I really really was excited for more red eyes

AnimeWineAunt

If it’s on the lenses I will be very angry

Stunning_Meringue_41

I mean born flawless makeup also has special effects, its like white glitter

EquivalentJumpy5594

I’ll get base make up butth eyes of the final evo look like the spider eyes we got with the spider makeup kit and web

The Wanxiang eye makeup also has these petals flying off the side too! When you have a close up of Nuannuan face, you can see it. But from far away, especially when she has side bangs or hair covering the side of her face, the effect gets covered up

Endles5waiting

I'm not a fan of these types of effects, especially attached to the face. I won't be pulling whatever piece it's linked to.

Penalty_Accurate

Well if it is tied to the lenses - it makes 0 reason for me to pull even those 20 pulls. Wanted to pull for these beautiful eyes only but I don't really like the looks if these petals. Maybe would reconsider when we get to dee it in-game, promos might be confusing

Do we know what the image in the eye is? Is it a rifle?

I feel like the eyes would have been nicer without it but thanks for the clearer image.

Connect_Tree_7642 [OP]

Some people said it’s bullet, but I’m not sure

sukiidakara

The pupils are bullets

Alive_Collection1652

I don’t remember the name of the outfit who allows you to change expressions but the special effect is linked to the lashes I think ? So you can easily change them for others lashes if you dislike the effect.

s0ngbird0405

i have those contacts and, unfortunately, the effects are indeed on the contacts, not the lashes. so, no turning it off. (i just deal with it cuz the eyes are super cute, tho)
