It says “you could also take a look at Michelle Phan’s Gothic Lolita make-up tutorial, that is, if you prefer to look like a Pullip doll.”
It seems to me that they don’t put much credit on her tutorial for Gothic Lolita, just suggesting it as a sort of really loose guide.

And isn’t this written by DollDelight? I absolutely adore her work. ♥

Although I appreciate that CosGen has taken the effort to properly research and promote lolita to the masses and distinguish it from Cosplay, I don’t think the choice of photos are appropriate. DollDelight is a wonderful Lolita, but not the only one out there and as an article on lolita fashion in general wouldn’t it be more suitable to have a mix of different styles and Lolitas? Gothic, Classic, Sweet etc. I’m sure many members of the EGL community would be delighted to be featured in this article.

Also, Phan while a skilled make-up artist, tends to be a hit-or-miss when it comes to tutorials of these types. Her ‘Gothic Lolita’ tutorial really is more Halloween costume than actually aimed towards the fashion.
