eyes are defined neatly or in smokey touch with red lipstick. This is created
by making use of black eyeliner. These are typical characteristics of Gothic
Lolita fashion. There are some sub-styles of Lolita where the overall look is
kept natural. Gothic is linked to a white powdered face, but the current
fashion trend of Lolita is improvised.

Lolita has been difficult to get public acceptance in certain nations as
everyday clothing. Some users consider it an exaggerated dress. It is
considered a childish improvisation of various outfits by some of the public.
It certainly causes unnecessary glare and stares if you wear it as daily wear
in the street. Lolita is believed to be a Japanese manifestation of comics,
animation, and games by some unaware of its origin. So, it is used in cosplay
events and as a costume for particular events. Some consider it to be a global
culture mixing. Wearing it and not over-accessorizing it is much better, and
keeping it close to natural look is considered best when you wear it otherwise.
