A nice BMEBoy entry for the ladies……or the gents who swing that way. In either case this blue eyed boy hails from Russia and goes by KonstantinZvyagin. But be warned, he has a bit of an ego to go with those piercing blue eyes of his seeing as the description of the photo was : “ I have beautiful eyes ”

Back a few years ago I decided to get my nose pierced again. I’d had it done twice before and twice before I’d decided I no longer wanted it and took it out. I told my friend Krista I was going to get this done again and she said, “Get both sides pierced. Only one side is ’80s.” She was joking around, of course, but I ended up getting both sides pierced anyway. Not long after that I had to get an MRI done and had to remove my jewellery. I couldn’t get them back in after that and for a third and likely final time, I retired my nostril piercings.
I’d had these (and many other piercings) done by Shawn at Epidart. Coincidentally, Shawn just happens to be the piercer of this lovely set of nostril piercings as well. (See how I tied that in there?) Here’s hoping “LoveHatesYou” keeps hers longer than I kept mine!

I remember back in the 80s, it actually was quite popular for awhile, to have multiple nostril piercings but I don’t see it as much anymore. Or maybe I just don’t notice. Nostril piercings seem to have become almost as acceptable in the work place as earlobe piercings. I ask you once again dear ModBlog reader, do you think nostril piercings are becoming (or simply are) as acceptable as standard earlobe piercings? Would you say that it’s more acceptable for a woman to have her nose pierced than a man when it comes to employment dress code, or would you say there’s really no difference?

Another 200 or so new photos have been added to BME so far today including this one. The piercings were done by Samantha Robles out of WAY Body Arts in Santa Cruz, California.
You’re looking at a healed 6ga philtrum. I’m not sure what gauge the nostrils are but I love the way these piercings compliment the face; especially the way the philtrum sits in the center of an exaggerated bow. I think this mouth was made for a philtrum, how about you?
Close up after the jump.

This is why you should always tip your hairstylist! Aside from a large gauge tongue piercing (equipped with tint brush jewellery), we also get some nice 2ga nostrils.

I’m going to be busy working on the BETA for BME’s new site to post to Modblog so hopefully the new Modblog contributors can keep up with my previous pace while I’m gone. The Year End Awards will go up on the first so don’t worry about that.
Beaker sent me a link to this video (which unfortunately doesn’t have an embed option) about the Biami tribe that had never had contact with the outside world. They’ve got all sorts of modifications but no cupcakes like our friend Adrian below! I’ve also been playing with FormSpring.me/BME so feel free to ask whatever questions you have and I’ll answer them as I can in between breaks working on the BETA.
