Beautician

The Beautician has returned once again to the Style Boutique games and has had bit of a makeover. In New Style Boutique 3: Styling Star, the Beautician allows players to purchase make-up products and make-overs, get a new set of nails or help customers pick out new look. The Beautician is managed by Lorelei and will open during the main story line of the game.



In Styling Star, you no longer have to unlock colours or locate make-up sets. All the make-up items and sets will unlock automatically as you progress through the main story line. The Make-Up Lab has been removed from the game and you can no longer design your own make-up sets. You cannot sell make-up sets either or change the look of the Beautician.  

Lorelei hard at work providing make-overs

At the Beautician, characters will appear on the bottom 3DS screen. If you talk to a customer, they will request you assist them with picking out new make-up or giving them a new set of nails. If you talk to Lorelei, three options will appear: Buy Make-Up, Surprise Me & Nails. We will now go into more detail about each option she offers:

Buy Make-Up
Here is where you can buy new make-up items and make-up sets. There is a variety of items available which include: Make-Up Sets, Eyebrows, Eyeshadow, Eyeliner, Mascara, Coloured Contacts, Blusher and Lipstick. A preview is shown of the colour of each item on the top screen when selected and you can add multiple items to your cart to purchase. Once you have purchased a make-up item, it will be available at your Apartment. The colour palette system is different to the one in Fashion Forward and has a swatch style look to it. The colour palettes are shown on the left hand side of the bottom 3DS screen and are organised in a way similar to make-up palettes in real life rather than the colour system in Fashion Forward. For more information on make-up sets in Styling Star, please visit the Make-Up Sets Guide.

Example of the make-up Sweet Heart

Surprise Me
Select this option to receive a make-over from Lorelei. Each make-over costs $75 and will result in a look similar to the style chosen. The surprise make-overs are similar to ones offered by Arabella in Fashion Forward, but the selection has been shrunk down to three options from five. Lorelei will present you with three make-over style options: 
  • Cute - Charming & Sweet 
  • Cool - Elegant & Fierce
  • Bright - Dazzling & Zesty
