Right.  And if she said "Lets meet up, here is a photo" I wouldn't recognize her in real life.

Does anyone know what Corina Mettlin nominated Meri for and what challenge Meri is accepting?  Digging a little deeply to find that Corina is another LLR representative.

[suomi]

The challenge is that both eyebrows will align and will begin just above the inner corner of the eye.

One down, one to go. You can do it!

...and on the other end of the brow, she lifts the pencil about half an inch sooner.  Where is it written that the eyebrow should follow the contour of the upper brow bone a-l-l the way around the eye socket?

I'm not sure if my Instagram link worked.  The black & white photo challenge is to stand in solidarity with the women in Turkey and the movement to honor those murdered and missing.

Thanks Grifter Lives, when I clicked on #ChallengeAccepted, the cause did come up.

When did she buy that glompy mascara? in 1999?

[DakotaJustice]

She looks wasted.

Plus, she has a fair amount of sun damage in her neck and chest area. Guess she forgot to filter that out.

Yup. This. I wouldn't know to look for a puffy-faced, orange tinged, frizzy-haired gobble neck. The irony of this is that Meri is engaging in what many catfishers do--misrepresentation. She may not be pretending to be someone else, but she's putting out a modified version of herself. 

Clearly, she is not happy with herself. People who are secure in their own skin don't modify or airbrush most of what they put on social media.

I do not see the supposed resemblance between Mariah and Sarah but nice try, Meri.

In Meri's photo collage of The Celebration of a Quarter Quell of the Life of Her Royal Highness Princess Snowflake, there's one photo that's filtered to the point of me wondering - who the heck is that beautiful, radiant woman in the car with Mere and Audge??  I mean, Meri - if you need to turn the high-powered filters on yourself, that's one thing.  But to filter your only child to the point of unrecognizability - then you might have a problem.

I noticed that too, and given that Mariah has no qualms at all about presenting herself exactly as she is, I wonder if that photo got a negative reaction from Mariah.  It's not as if Meri fixed a wayward strand of hair before a photo was snapped, she completely altered Mariah's appearance, effectively saying, you are not quite acceptable just as you are.  I can imagine that would be a gesture that Mariah would not appreciate, Meri should tread softly, she's on shaky ground with Mariah as it is.

I would never have id'd that picture as Snowflake.  Is Meri so stupid that she thinks people don't notice the world of difference between her filtered crap and reality?

I stopped on that photo too.  Mariah didn’t look like herself.  Lipstick!  

[Gramto6]

The only resemblance I see is the nose...and maybe the round cheeks...not a big win...

[Nysha]

Seeing the older photos of Mariah with clean, brushed hair really highlights how messy, dirty, and greasy it is now.

Wouldn't it be better and cheaper to simply make your own?  It isn't like cookie butter is tough to get or even make and rice krispy treats are easy enough for a five year old to make.  Then they aren't stale and all sticky from being shipped in summer heat.

Meri - It's Rice Krispies, dammit! 

For five bucks each they better be the size of a dinner plate. Each.

She might not be able to sell them with the name of the cereal because of copyrights.

I thought that too.  It may be overlooked by Kellogg's when their brand name is used on recipe sites because after all, it's promoting use of their product.  Meri is attempting to turn this into a money-making scheme for herself. so the corporation may take issue with blatant appropriation of their name, without any benefit to them.

Great.  Sweat and stink with LLNo.  At least she's toned down the eyebrows and mascara.

Why does anyone still buy that crap?  Apparently some thrift stores don't even want LLNo donations.

[deirdra]

Is there a metal strip in there that you were supposed to mold to the bridge of your nose, Meri? All sorts of cooties will shoot out of there when you breathe.

[Rabbit Hutch]

Meri doesn't even look real.  There's a deep psychological problem on display, here.  ☹

Does she not know the hilarity of her chic panda shirt and her panda eye makeup??

Also, and maybe this is just my screen, it’s a basic ass black mask. Not exactly avant- guard. Geesh.

Isn't a sleepy panda best for a teen's nightshirt, something in a cheap discount store's 100% polyester loungewear collection?

It is non-binary purple on my screen. 

I wear 100% cotton masks and T-shirts so that my lungs & body can breathe properly.

I just thank heavens that I lived long enough to reach a time in my life where I don't give two hoots about what people think.  Not that I run around looking like a slob but I feel no need to fake anything.  I've never taken a selfie in my life so have no need for filters. Whatcha see is whatcha get!

The perk of being a member of the COL Club.

If I am interpreting Meri's post correctly, the masks are supplied by LLR to color co-ordinate with existing t-shirts.  If the masks are produced in the same sweat shop conditions the clothing is, I would think twice before putting one anywhere near my mouth or nose.

True that.  I only care what I think so dress and wear my hair to please myself.  Very freeing.

Meri is going to have to filter the heck out of Granny to make them look anything alike.  Wishful thinking on her part.

[Gramto6]

I do think there is a small familial "resemblance" but nothing that I would shout out to the world, look how DD resembles Lizzie!

I would hope that anything that someone purchases that is worn on the body, is washed prior to wearing.  

[Gramto6]

I think the mask came from another Lulano distributor to match the shirt, that is how I took the message to read.

I can see why you thought this. However, the second tag is the founder/president of LuLaNo.

In my defense, it was 4:30 in the morning and my phone was on “reduce white point” 😂 

I hope it’s at least 2 layers, though. Stretchy knits aren’t exactly the best fabric as it is for masks.

Exactly.  They are fairly useless although better than nothing.  You need a tighter weave.

[deirdra]

Wearing a 100% cotton mask can steam up your face and glasses.  100% polyester would get unbearably hot and wet very quickly.

That shirt looks like it's made out of that horrible cheap, shiny poly blend that snags the skin on your fingers when you touch it.  It also looks already stretched out and the high-quality stitching at the neck and arms is reminiscent of those super-cheap shirts you can buy in bulk at the craft store to tie-dye, wear twice, then throw away when it falls apart.

And you too can own a LLN Sleepy Panda shirt for the low low price of $27.99, after locating a LLN FB party, joining, waiting, and fighting with Madge from Dubuque over the last size Large!

You weren't that far off though.  If my monitor was accurate, it showed the mask as several shades darker than the t-shirt. Possibly it's Meri's fav. t-shirt and it has been through the washer a dozen times and has faded. 

As dreadfulLeigh pointed out, the panda theme is appealing to Meri as it somehow justifys her heavy hand in the eye makeup arena.  If it occurs in nature, it must be right???

I wonder if she offers that t-shirt for sale to her devotees eventually, she throws in the mask as an added bonus.
