Hi fairies! <3

This is a bit of a difficult post to make, but I’ve thought about it a lot and I’ve come to my a decision (:

Entering this community has saved me and given me purpose in a part of my life that was very difficult: I was at uni, in a full blown student crysis, isolated from the world because of covid and other difficulties, feeling worthless and lost. Sharing my passion for The Sims 3 on my instagram account made me happy, gave me a new hobby to cultivate everyday and an excuse to grow into my creative side and feel good at something; that has evolved in what has been less than a year and escalated in a beautiful way, as I’ve already told you several times.

However, the idea of making this a sort of “work” or source of income in the future making me able to do it full time as exciting and amazing as it would be is not impossible but still very difficult to make a reality, at least for me, and in the last month I had started feeling lost in life again.

Unexpectedly, I had a very good occasion and found a job in a field I really love and I see a future for myself into. I wanted to continue cultivating this at least as a hobby, but as 2 weeks have passed and I am outside of my home from 8 am to 10 pm 6 days out of 7, I’ve started realizing that it would only bring a lot of stress upon myself, at least for now, and after a lot of years of struggle I just want to be happy and make things easy for myself just once.

It pains my heart to leave, because I really love interacting with you and creating custom content, learning new things everyday, but sadly I can’t afford to and I entered this world old enough to have to make decisions like this, so here we are :/

So I guess I’m announcing un undefined hiatus, one I won’t be coming back from in 1/2 months. I want to say that it won’t be forever, but life is pretty complicated so I don’t want to promise anything.

I’ll stop billing on Patreon from today (obvy) and all my socials will become inactive.

Thank you for everything a thousand times and it’s been beautiful making this brief journey with you <3

Hi lovelies!

Sorry for my prolongued silence but I started working full time last week (which will hopefully not change from now on) so I’m taking a little break to get accostumed to my new lifestyle. 

I’ll get back to work soon, and even if I’ll be a little slower I’ll continue creating for you everytime I can :)

Thanks for all the love that you’re giving me and see you around! <3

♡ WIP - DUOYIN MAKEUP SET ♡

Hi beautiful fairies!

A few days ago I’ve started working on the first item of my upcoming set, which will be the Duoyin Makeup Set  °•. ✿ .•°

For anyone who doesn’t know, Duoyin is a chinese alternative for Tiktok and the makeup trends that originated from the platform have peeked quite often into my Pinterest feed in the last months - so I decided to give it a go.

It will be a pretty big set for my standards, counting more than 10 items that will be released in 3 different parts. The items will be in the eyeliner, eyeshadow, blush, highlighter and lipstick categories - and maybe even some other mystery categories, if I succeed  ☆

I decided to start from an eyeliner, since the only one I’ve made till now is pretty simple and I wanted to challenge myself; and it was quite a challenge indeed, but at the end I made it!

The eyeliner (which doesn’t have a name yet, bare with me ;-;) adds a little flick at the end of the eye and sculpts the inner eye corner, the undereye and eyebag accentuating them and giving the illusion of a bigger eye.

The eyeliner will be avalaible in two swatches (black and dark brown + the eventual others needed to make it work on darker skincolors) and you will have the options to choose between different combinations of the eyeliner and sculpting parts (for example: all, eyeliner only, eye sculpting only, etc), so that you can achieve different looks with a single package.

I still have to do more testing and adjustments, so take this as a full WIP yet! But I was too happy not to share it with you  ૮ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ა

Down below, you can find pics in this order: bare eyes, eyeliner+lashes and eyeliner only. No eye overlays and presets have been used <3

For full quality & resolution pics, look at my Patreon post (free, obviously)

Creator to creator: It’s okay to share knowledge.

People are so afraid of being copied, facing competition, losing attention, or losing profit.

These are all valid concerns but get this: The people that love your work, will continue to support you even if someone comes along and does something similar. There’s more than enough room for everyone.

If you help someone and they copy you, that speaks on their lack of creativity. If you help someone and they take what you shared and do it better- be proud of them, be envious, but don’t be bitter. There is always room for improvement. You helped them succeed, and someone else will help you succeed.

We need community made tutorials in order to thrive together. And, when we thrive as a community, everyone profits. Simblr is the main hub for content because we made it so. We supported one another. We reblogged. We shared. When one of us fails, we fail as a community because we’ve stubbed out someone’s potential before they even had a chance to grow.

Warning creators about youtube account “DSims” stealing content

I know I don’t like getting involved on this kind of stuff, but this one hit too close home and I couldn’t just stay silent since most of you would NEVER know about this without being able to read in portuguese, so here is the thing:

This person right here has been stealing our content and selling it back for her members. How does she do that? (this is a bit long)

Cowbuild: Remove the transphobia.

@cowbuild This is the last time I am going to ask this. I am very clearly asking you to remove the intentional misgendering posts you made about me. I am also asking you to remove the posts that say I do not exist. For the sake of my own mental health and wellbeing.

I am also asking those of you who are supporting this transphobic suicide-endorser why you are supporting her. Explain it to me. And if you support HER but not what she has done to ME, then call for her to remove her transphobic comments towards me and apologize.

This is the fifth time I have called for her to do this and she refuses. I am also offering to video chat with Cowbuild to prove that I am not @mack3030 . Enough is enough. I want the transphobia and Cotard's triggers involving me off of her page immediately.

Hell, if it'd help Bucky I'd even offer to be on the video call at the same time. Enough is enough.

This is absolutely shocking and disgusting behaviour, to attack someone on a personal level is bang out of order!! How is this creator still in the Sims Community!? I say they should be boycotted altogether by the rest of the community to the point that they shuffle off elsewhere. We are here because we love the sims game, we're not here to be bullied or threaten and we should not be expected to support creators lifestyles.

SO COWBUILD I WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU AND YOUR CRONIES GET OFF YOUR LAZY BACKSIDES & GO OUT AND GET A JOB!! like the majority of the sims community!! instead of expecting us to fork out our hard earned cash for you and your cronies creations!!

If you want to demand money, your behavior as a creator with a platform that reaches thousands of people should reflect someone who is responsible and professional as well as community-minded and generous.

GIVE YOUR MONEY TO PEOPLE WHO TREAT OUR COMMUNITY WITH RESPECT. NOT WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE BIGOTS, BULLIES AND TRANSPHOBES.

We stand with Bucky against Cowbuild’s blatant transphobia. Lest we remind you this is the same person who has said things like:

So we can’t say we’re too surprised…

We fully support and stand with Bucky!
