Reason for choice:

I have loved Carina since she was first introduced as part of the Circus Noctarcana, but I couldn't buy her until 2012. Thankfully, she is a basic and custom, not just a limited.

Best Points:

Face sculpt. I just really love it! And her faceup... except--

Worst Points:

--not a big fan of the bright lips, but I'll live with it. It's super hot-pink on the white skin.
