Like most countries, Australia has an agricultural fair which they call Royal (city name) Show (eg. Royal Melbourne Show) and when there’s royal show there are showbags; a themed carry bag of goods from a commercial sponsor.
They contain samples of the range of goods produced by the vendor.
Most showbags are marketed to the young, containing lots of lollies (candy) and chocolate, dolls and other toys. Common themes for showbags include confectionery brands, trademarked toys.
They used to be free or have only a nominal charge to promote the brand awareness
I’ve seen this done at several shows here in the U.S. I’ve been to a bunch of medical shows where the exhibitors give out bags that only have their name, logo, etc. no product.
I have also been to an agriculture show where vendors gave out bags with a bunch of product. So it looks like this is not unique to Australia.
The names I like so far are Blondie, Cupcake, Fiesta, Gypsy, Pixie, Candy, Chiquita, Toots (like tootsie), Twiggie, Doll or Dolly, Genie, Zelda, Barbie, Roxy, Giselle, or Thalia
Chiquita,Pixie, and Cupcake are too average. Blondie, and Roxy sound good.
for my grand entrance i want to come out of a box maybe a life-size doll box or a magic box but i don’t know where i would be able to get that from so if u can help me that would be great
You’d probably have to construct one. But it isn’t as hard as it sounds: visit your local appliance store and see if you can get your hands on a refrigerator box. You’d have to shorten it a bit, and I believe they come with a ‘cover.’ Then you could decorate it with paint or wrapping paper as you please.
Good luck
I am willing to buy online. I live in the USA and I love himegyaru style. Does anyone know of some good Japanese make up brands that I can buy? I know of kissme and I really wanted to buy Candy Doll lip concealer, but I can’t find it anywhere. Does anyone know where to buy it from?
If you have ever read ageha magazine, that is the makeup I’m aiming for. A glowing, pale skintone[I have dull, pale skin], concealed lips with a milky pink gloss over it, and a mascara that brings out my eyes[I have hazel eyes]
I’m not sure how much you can pay for the makeup that you’d really like to get but it seems you may contact some local consignor like below to ship the items to you on behalf of you. It may cost pretty much accordingly.

I’m 13, and it is going to be cold as shit. It always is…. @_@
I was planning to be either a porcelain doll (they are CREEPY) or Eric Cartman from South Park. Any better suggestions? Or help with the doll costume, because I’m not sure how exactly to put that together warmly. Plus I wear glasses- thin, black rectangular frames. I am also pale as a sheet.
For the suggestions, I don’t care how masculine/feminine it is. :3 Candy is candy.
