Aesthetician Question: Why can't I have eyeshadow and blush?

[Silverbane]

They are working to improve character appearance in 7.0 -- that's the earliest we can expect any real change.
And I think better make-up options would be a worthy addition.
I don't like having to choose between eye shadow and blush, and frankly, the blush options are too limited.

Don't underestimate the amount of effort that this requires, though: this is a new facial appearance subsystem we're talking about, and while that might not be too difficult, then you have to take every existing character in the game and convert it to the new system while keep the appearance as close as possible to the old one. And that could be tough. But it does seem to be what they are touting for 7.0.

As long as the Aesthetician can alter make-up (i.e. you don't need a Fantasia to do it) then the conversion to the new system only needs to be "good enough," since the player can then fine-tune it without incurring any real-money costs. And if the conversion doesn't give a "good enough" result? Well, maybe a Fantasia or two for every existing character should be included with every purchase of the 7.0 expansion pack ...

Do you expect that, come 7.0, people will appreciate Elezen beauty and our lovely necks or will we still be mocked as savanna-escaping giraffes?

Sexy Elezen neck. <3

Ah, some appreciate swan-like neck aesthetics when they see it! (Given the length, kind of hard not to see it.)

My spouse and I already do, but Beauty is ever in the eye of the Beholder.

Tell that Beholder I have an 18 in Charisma and I'm not afraid to use it.

(Or was ever, anyway, except Beauty failed her saving throw against Disintegrate.
A bereaved and enraged Beast then pluck out the Beholder's eyes,
all 11 of them, one at a time, and stomped them into goo.
The Beholder then changed careers and became a judge.
The headline read: Beauty Bested, Beast Blinds Beholder, Justice Prevails.)

This is a misconception, they're doing a graphic overhaul including the character models.
They never said there would be new customization.

What part of "that's the earliest we can expect any real change" did you not understand?
It's not a statement that any new customization has been touted;
saying something won't happen before a certain date is not the same as saying it will happen on that date -- that's pretty basic reading comprehension stuff.
