This isn’t a Halloween costume. It isn’t even a clubbing costume. It’s a bartender. At work. Serving drinks. With black tape on her nipples and a horrible black chasm of a belly tattoo which is sucking me into oblivion. Also, bad lip-liner.

“Yamanba (ヤマンバ, Yamanba?) sometimes written as “yamamba”, is a fashion trend among young Japanese women. Starting with the bleached white hair and heavy tan of the ganguro girl, the yamanba adds white lipstick, white eye makeup, and sometimes brightly colored contacts, plastic clothing, and inappropriate accessories. Some yamanba wear stuffed animals as decorations, talk with a slurred speech, and enjoy shiny neon or dayglo colors.”
Looks like Pink got in a fist-fight with a voodoo priest. Which is kind of cool, I guess.

Stream-of-consciousness exercise:
I fully understand that maintaining one’s eyebrows is a chore. Some of us wax, some pluck, but one thing we should never do is this:

This is scary. This is called “I spit on your plucking and waxing. I’m going to shave them off and draw them back on. With a Sharpie.”
To me, it seems more of a hassle than anything else. I’m thinking you have to pull this off before your morning coffee, because the jitters could really mess up your line.
Here we have a cornucopia of awful:

Let’s see… we’ve got the drawn eyebrows (a truly spectacular specimen), frosted blue eyeshadow, and the one thing that can outstrip Sharpie Brows in terms of sheer hypnotizing power: light lipstick with dark liner. I once had a design professor who did that with the lipstick, and I swear I never heard what was coming out of her mouth–I was too busy staring at the paintjob. No, I did not pass that class.
Instead of busting out the razor and performing mayhem via marker (burning question: how DOES that come off?), here’s a handy reference for DIY plucking. You’re welcome.
