It’s time for Skin Fair again! Last year, I came home with a new skin from Tuli, and this year I was fortunate enough to be allowed early access through a blogger group. I completely love my Jade skin from [PXL] Creations, but I am always willing to give a new look a try.

One thing I discovered is that there are some absolutely amazing skins available on the three sims of the Skin Fair. I grabbed a LOT of demos, but as is always the case when choosing a new skin, unless you are willing to completely change your face – and I’m not – you are limited to what works with your existing shape.

Of all of the new looks I demoed, the only one that I loved with my shape was the Wrath skin from 7 Deadly S{k}ins by Izara Zuta. It fit my face like it was meant for me. And there are so many options with this skin! I admit that at first it was a bit daunting trying to decipher the coding she uses, but what it breaks down to is that each skin has a choice of tones, with or without cleavage, with or without freckles (full body, even!) and with or without sunkissing. And then you get combinations of all of those options. Check out the chart she has displayed and is included with your skin. It helps make easy work of understanding the options.

Of all of the tones, Tone 2 suited me best, and that is what I am wearing. I chose the option with everything – full-body freckles, sunkissed and cleavage. I do love that the freckles are all over the body. They are well done and cute. I generally shy away from freckles, but the skins I have previously tried only had freckled faces. And since I live on a beach, the sun-kissed highlights on the face, cleavage, arms and legs make perfect sense.

The skins come “naked” so you can add lipstick and eye shadow of your choice. You do get combined makeup on tattoo layers with the skin (I am wearing Makeup 3 in the photos), but this makes it easy to mix and match. And I honestly like the unadorned version. You will probably get to see me sans makeup here at some point.

As with every skin I have ever tried on, there is some little detail that I am not totally happy with. On my Jade skin, it is the elbows. With Wrath, it is the shading on the hipbones. However, since those don’t usually get a lot of daylight with me it wasn’t a deal killer. There is also a bit of shading under the jaw that shows up a bit dark in certain lighting. Honestly, I didn’t notice it until I was going through various Windlight settings for these photos and it was evident only with settings I won’t normally use – nor will most people who will be seeing me.

7 Deadly S{k}ins is located on Sim 1 at the Skin Fair and it is now officially open. Check out Wrath – she is a beauty. And there is a Skin Fair special that you need to check out. Two skins in Tone 2, makeup, and all appliers for only L$250! Nobody could accuse you of Greed if you pick it up 😉
