Infinity Nikki's Chapter 6 transports players to the enchanting Wishing Woods, a realm inhabited not by humans but by the mystical Faewish Sprites. To venture into this forest, Nikki must first secure a special permit, setting the stage for the Cleansing Oil Quest. At the heart of this mission lies Timis's Beauty Lab, a sprawling dungeon where Nikki must restart the workshop facility to borrow the Ultra-Light Cleansing Oil. This item is essential for advancing the quest, turning the lab into a treasure trove for Stylists who can collect elusive Whimstars and Dews of Inspiration—key resources for enhancing abilities and unlocking new paths. The Beauty Lab, with its labyrinthine corridors and fantastical machinery, offers a blend of puzzle-solving and exploration, inviting players to navigate its many secrets in 2025. 👗

As Nikki steps into the Beauty Lab, the first challenge is locating the three hidden Whimstars. These star-like collectibles are cleverly concealed across the facility, requiring a mix of size-changing abilities and precise jumps. Starting off, players use the Ability Outfit to shrink Nikki down, slipping through narrow doors and following winding paths. Upon reaching an upper level by leaping across platforms, a breakable cover on the ground catches the eye—this is where the first Whimstar hides. Returning to human size, a plunging attack smashes the cover, revealing a hidden area. Jumping upwards through a gap leads to another room, and there it is: a gleaming Whimstar floating serenely.

After grabbing that first prize, the journey continues with another size shift. Back in miniature form, Nikki traverses escalators and hops onto a colossal vase, only to spot a small hole near the exit. Dropping down and riding the first escalator unveils the second Whimstar tucked beneath the second escalator. This spot requires quick timing and a keen eye for environmental cues. 🧩

Moving into the purple-themed section of the lab adds a splash of color and complexity. Before exiting via a small door, an entrance on the ground beckons—jumping inside leads to a makeup room filled with mirrors and brushes. The third Whimstar sits proudly in front of a mirror at the back, rewarding persistent exploration. Despite the lab's vastness, finding these Whimstars feels like a dance of intuition and skill, with each discovery unlocking a sense of accomplishment.

While the Whimstars are few, the Dews of Inspiration are more numerous, totaling 18 and appearing in pairs throughout the facility. Their collection demands systematic searching, as each set of two dew drops enhances Nikki's purification powers. Starting from the entrance, the first pair is found by breaking the same cover used for the first Whimstar—a plunging attack opens the hidden room, revealing the dews shimmering in the dim light.

Progressing deeper, the Aroma Extraction Room checkpoint offers another opportunity. Glancing left at the mechanism reveals two more dews, easily overlooked amid the industrial setup.

From there, it's all about size manipulation: shrinking to navigate tight spaces, Nikki lands on a gigantic vase, then enlarges to use the Purification Ability Outfit, snagging dews from an opposite vase. The path twists onward, with escalators leading to holes and gaps—dropping into one near an exit exposes another dew pair across the void.

Entering the purple zone, the Cosmetic Assembly Line checkpoint buzzes with activity. Bypassing branding machines, Nikki slips through a small door and spots two oversized makeup brushes. Turning human again, a jump to the platform above yields three dews. Not far ahead, a ground entrance leads to an escalator with a square stamp machine—riding it to the top and activating purification snatches dews from a high platform.

Finally, the Cleansing Oil Workshop checkpoint houses the last dews among perfume bottles, capping off the treasure hunt.

To summarize key locations:

  • Whimstars: Found by shrinking, jumping, and attacking covers in three specific spots.

  • Dews of Inspiration: 18 total, always in pairs:

  • Hidden room after breaking cover

  • Aroma Extraction Room left of mechanism

  • Vase top using purification ability

  • Hole near exit across gap

  • Above makeup brushes in purple zone

  • Stamp machine platform

  • Cleansing Oil Workshop near perfumes

As players gather these collectibles, they not only progress the quest but also immerse themselves in a world where every corner holds potential. The Beauty Lab's design, with its escalators and hidden chambers, feels alive, yet it leaves lingering questions: How do such intricate environments influence player creativity in solving puzzles? And what deeper stories might the Faewish Sprites hold beyond the permit? 🌟
