The End

Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know that I’ve decided to let this blog die peacefully, over the last few months I’ve come to the inevitable conclusion that I’m simply not interested in sims 4 anymore. 

I started this blog in 2014 (I do believe it started as a One Direction fan blog) and what a ride it’s been, I feel so grateful that in the end 11,816 people saw something they liked and decided to follow me. What a butt load of people. I thank each and every one of you for your support. But I knew one day I’d come to the end of this journey so I wanted to give my thanks and a proper goodbye before disappearing for good. This is my last post as shirosims. 

Much love and happy simming!

if you want more notes you should start linking your cc

Come on man, I’ve been back with two posts after two months hiatus. All of my lookbooks last year had the cc listed.

if you’re already photoshopping everything, why don’t you start making cc? Like makeup or skin, all you need is photoshop

… and some actual talent and skill which I lack immensely. I left tumblr partly due to my overwhelmingly shitty editing skills. I don’t think I’m quite up to making cc.

Okay so, firstly I want to start off by welcoming all the new followers that have come across my blog in the last two months I’ve been away, I appreciate that you saw something you liked and decided to follow knowing the blog was on a hiatus. 

Secondly, I’m stuck at an impasse now on whether or not to come back officially. I peruse tumblr every now and then like a ghost seeing all the amazing talent and new content that’s come out, it leaves me inspired and feeling creative. So today I decided to jump on that creativity train and get back into it... it did not go the way I wanted. I tried different coloured backgrounds and different styles to try and create something that I haven’t before but I couldn’t get it right and in the hours I was doing that I was just getting increasingly frustrated and disappointed in myself. 

Behind this very photo there are THREE looks that I created, edited and ultimately scraped because I wasn’t feeling it. 

Lastly, I left tumblr/sims because of my declining mental health and I thought if I gave up something that brought me anger and stress, I’d feel better.. however in the past few months I’ve found myself just going more and more downhill. Turns out, what I do on this blog was just a tiny tiny factor weighing in on my mental status. 

So at this point I don’t know what to do, but perhaps I’ll occasionally post a cute photo like this one.. I don’t want to disappoint anyone. 

Love you all.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Hi--I just wanted you to know that I really appreciate your lookbooks and what you do :). I know it requires a lot of time and effort on your part, and I'm sorry you feel like you're not getting anything back from this community. >_< I feel like the sims community isn't the best about liking/reblogging things... but I hope you can see that a lot of people do really value you and what you do :).... even if they're not the best at showing it, haha.

Thank you, I appreciate your words a lot. ❤️

:( eyeliners are hard

Yeah no kidding, I can have bad days where I just can’t get them even or they are too thick or just bad in general. But keep practising!!

[shirosims]

Nonono, I meant the eyeliner in your picture

Sorry yes. I use a pen eyeliner (the easiest in my opinion) and free hand it. I’ve been using eyeliner since 9th grade so it’s just practise really.

Hello! I do think it is a struggle even in the internet to have friends that would truly be with you. It is so hard to communicate with others, and when you find one person who is willing to be your friend I think that is still better than having notes. I guess what I'm trying to say is that your "complaints" are reasonable, a lot of people can relate to it. I hope you'll find people in your life that will always be there for you :)

Thank you

You have mentioned that your sims' eyeshadows are photoshopped, can you give tips and if possible resources on how you did it?

All I do is use the burn tool to create shadows and depth :)

There are definitely better ways to create shadow but that’s just how I do it.

Hello how did you do your eyeliner

I use twinklesimstress and alf-si’s eyeliners.

Edit: Also I’ve just realised I don’t know if you’re asking about my sims or my actual face.
