February Poll Results - Make-Up Sets

The question for February was 'At the Beautician, do you sell the pre-made sets or your own designs?' and there was 72 votes this month.

So the results are in on what style players use to decorate their boutique with and they are:
1st = My own designs!
2nd = Pre-made sets.

Totally knew pre-made sets was going to lose as I've seen that most players love making their own sets and that of course would've been the more popular one to sell. Personally I sell the pre-made sets as I used them to work out what kind of styles customers would hint they fell under so I could use them in fashion shows. But I didn't work at the Beautician much anyway, so I never sold many sets.

Underwater Dreamscape won the poll!

The new poll for March is 'What is your favourite item to design?' To vote, simply scroll down the side bar and the poll is under the game box images.

Beautician - Magda's Sister Request

When working at the Beautician in Style Boutique 2, you may come across a customer who claims to be Magda's twin sister. A girl named Polly claims she is the twin sister of Magda who is the local fortune teller. She tells you that Madga has no memory of her and requests that you give her a make-over to look just like her. She hopes that that will trigger her memory of them being sisters.

She will give you a photo to reference for the make-up. Magda wears gothic style make-up and the game will tell you the colours of each make-up item. You can pick any tone in that colour (i.e. purple) and you do need to match it exactly. For example, the game asks for a purple tone, you can pick any tone from the purple palette.

After the make-over, the truth is revealed that Polly is not Magda's twin sister and just idolises her mysterious persona. Polly become caught up in mimicking Magda that she forgot who she truly was. This request is similar to the copycat Five Sister requests that appear in the game.

Caprice Chalet - Cat Themed Rooms

At the Caprice Chalet, you can create different themed rooms and rent them to characters in the game. Only certain themed rooms can be rented out to characters and must have specific items placed in them to fit into a rental category. This post will look at the cat themed rooms and renting them to characters.

Cat themed rooms are a cute simple room that contains toy cat miniatures. To set up the room, layout a simple design for the room and be careful not to use items that will categorise to room as something else, i.e. crystal balls or food items. Cat themed rooms must contain about two or three toy cat miniature items. These items are available under the Plants and Animals category and there are three to collect: Grey Tabby Cat Toy, Tabby Cat Toy and Black Cat Toy. You can place the toy cat miniatures anywhere in the room such as the floor or on a cabinet.

Characters will appear at your boutique with a small house symbol above their head. Select this character and they will tell you how they noticed a room at the Caprice Chalet that had a certain theme. With cat themed rooms, the character will talk about how they would love to play with the toy cat in the room.

The character will request to rent the room out and you can either select yes or no. The rental periods for rooms is 24 hours and renting out rooms is a good method for earning money without effort in the game.

Characters will stay in the Caprice Chalet room for about 24 hours. When you visit the Caprice Chalet, rooms that are rented out will have a small person icon displayed on them. If you select this room during the rental period, the character will tell you how they are going or how business is doing. Visit the room after the 24 hour period and the character is ready to leave the room. They will thank you for allowing them to rent the room and tell you how they went. The character will then pay you the rental fee for using the room. The rental fee for cat themed rooms is $300.
