Shine.  For you are light and wonder.  For there are galaxies within you and star dust dances in your soul. Stars live in your eyes, and glory and grace live in your bones.  You are beautiful.  You are light and wonder.  You shine. ~ g.c.

After my last post I decided to take the advice in the quote and go full on mesh. Looking over the first photograph of myself all meshed up I came to the conclusion that my schnoz was quite large, so under the virtual knife I went and had a nose job.   I am now quite happy with the result.  So much so that I went through my closet and added this new mug to all my outfits.  I have fully embraced the all mesh me and wanted to capture a portrait of the new and improved Cougar.

I busied myself with my small (by 2nd Life standards), but varied collection of hair as I said I would. I am happy to report that I was able to find hairbases from most of my favorite hair designers that work well with them.  There are even a few pre mesh updos that are still relevant that can be used as well.  So I have left the old and embraced the new and fully intend to shine on.  Be kind to one another.  TWMA♥

The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. ~ Socrates

After my last post I thought to work on the Catwa Catya bento head I had purchased when it was first introduced. I’ve worked a little bit everyday on it, adjusting this and that until I finally feel fairly comfortable showing what I have accomplished, though by no means am I done.  This will be a continuous work in progress for a while I fear until I am satisfied with the result.

I’ve used eyeshadow that came with my new skin (Amara Beauty of course) and then blended further with the Catwa Master HUD.  Sticking with my preferred natural look clear lip gloss was applied. Being a no fuss kind of gal I used lashes that came with the head. I did purchase a few more lip and eyeshadow colors that will be put to use once I redo my closet.  I also purchased the Catwa mesh eyes as they were recommended for the bento head but the color options are not to my liking and while I did try a couple of appliers from other creators I wound up trashing them.  I went back to using IKON and can report that so far they work well with this bento head. I also intend to go through each and every hair currently in my closet and see what does and does not work. I may be disappointed or pleasantly surprised. Lots to keep me busy  for a while.

The outfit I am wearing lends itself well to a growing baby bump and everything shown in the above photo is mesh except for one small item.   The cougar ring I wear on my right index finger I’ve worn almost day one of my existence in 2nd life. It’s no longer available and I am not about to pack it away. Old habits are hard to break 🙂   Be kind to one another.  TWMA♥
