I was pleasantly surprised today when I got a sneak peek of this new Eva skin from Tuli! They’re so pretty!
These skins will be released on March 18th (next week), when the Journey sim reopens.

My last skin review (Leah, Glam Affair) got a lot of interesting comments, so I will try to do a better review this time, and thanks to all the helpful suggestions, I am even trying a new Windlight setting.
This latest skin from Glam Affair is Giselle, and I think a lot of positive changes were made with this skin. First, I noticed right away that the Blonde brows have a lil’ more color to it, closer to what I would normally wear. I also like that the skin is a bit smoother on the face (with less visible pores), but I noticed that there are a lot more random beauty marks placed on the face, along with freckles. I’m a fan of a random beauty mark now and then, but not when it is permanently on the skin (and not on a tattoo layer that can be removed). One of my biggest turn off with this skin, even though I like the face a lot (it’s adorable), is that the highlight seems to be very strong, making the forehead seem White! Although the face is no longer gray, the body of the skin still is gray (to me anyway, although a lot of you guys commented on my last post and said you don’t see gray).
I also noticed the face/body color mismatch problem is most noticeable when zoomed out, on full body photos. Most of my skin reviews shows torso and up, but one of the comments I received last time from a reader, said she wanted me to do more body photos, so here you go! I’m not naked though, but if you want to see the bits, try it on your avatar so you can zoom in super close and check it all out.

I love reviewing skins, but when the review is less than glowing, I feel a lil’ uncomfortable. I want to review to make people happy, not mad at me! But if I couldn’t review skins my way, I would not do them at all. This is why I haven’t reviewed many this year, but a lot of friends encouraged me to keep going.
What I like to do is add tattoo layers to my face to add blush or in this case, I used a highlight layer that’s tintable, to make the highlight LESS bright, then added blush. The images are labeled, so you can see the difference that tattoo layers can make! I personally would wear this skin with all the tats on it — cos it looks better.
For this post, I used Strawberry Singh’s StrawberrySinghDotComCloseUps Windlight setting, just to make sure people do not think that my Windlight setting is “bad” or somehow making the skin look worse. You can download Strawberry’s WL setting on her page, along with a couple of others.
Hope you guys enjoy the review, visit Glam Affair to check out Giselle!
If you have any more suggestions, leave me some comments and I will work it into my next post.

I wanted to blog these KHUSH tights for ages, cos I looove the colors!! Oh they’re sheer too! Each color includes 2 versions – with seam and seamless. I would’ve worn it without panties beneath but I’ll spare you up-close shots of my bits 😛
You can wear these with anything and go classy or crazy. I’m an 80’s kid so I LOVE HOT PINK!!!!!! <3

Okay, today I wanted to blog about an accessory I saw on Flickr, but I couldn’t teleport to the event cos it was over. I tried to find it at the main store, but the owner showed up so it was a bit awkward. Do you guys teleport away really fast when the store owner shows up, or do you stick around shop? I teleported away before I could find it, so I’ll just blog about something else. Something that you also can’t get… blahhh…..
This new Studded Heart Clutch from LaGyo, is from last week’s Fifty Linden Friday event. Although the items are cheap, the FLF event is way too short (just 24 hours), so I don’t really cover it anymore. I find that once I do find time to blog the item, it’s already gone from the store, or the price is no longer $50L.
This Studded Heart Clutch is amazing, if you do have one, don’t you just love it? A HUD is included to change color and two metal options.
I’ve been cleaning my inventory, and trying to plan my next few blog posts. Til next time, BYE! 🙂
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Harley (Peach)
Truth – Candy (LightBlonde01)
Teefy – Odette Dress (Mint) S
LaGyo – Studded Heart Clutch (bent arm)
SLink – Mesh Hands (av)
Flair – Nail Huds set 104 My Attic Special
This is a preview of the new Audrey skin from Tuli that will be released later today tomorrow. I’m really excited about Audrey because I think she looks nothing like what Tuli has done in the past – the face is completely different, and the brows and lips are just amazing. I’m also really excited that there are lots of 2.0 lipstick layers to choose from!
If you’re dying to try Audrey before the release, join the Tuli Update group ($250L fee) and get a free group gift skin.
My hair is the new Lily style from Exile. It is available at The Dressing Room for a limited time only! The regular release will not have the 4 hair colors sold here.
“If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.”
Do you agree with this quote? I have something nice to say about this dress, but I also have something I dislike about it. Should I say nothing at all?
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel Skin
Exile – Locomotion
Emery – Eva Dress (Sea) Small
Remember when LAQ was known as Laqroki? Almost everyone in Second Life had a signature LAQ complexion at some point—realistic skins with sweet faces and flawless features. To this day, I hold Mallory Cowen’s skin textures in high regard; they are the epitome of perfection. Her craftsmanship in creating enchantingly soft features set the standard for realistic and supple skins in Second Life.
The market for mesh heads within Second Life is undeniably competitive now. Numerous brands are launching their exclusive high-definition UV templates, with some even partnering with LeLutka to create EvoX-compatible options. LAQ’s latest innovation is the Era2 mesh head (Elle), boasting their sophisticated SupremeUHD head that comes bundled with a skin, an EvoX head, and a classic Standard SLUV head—truly enough choices for everyone. From my perspective, to truly capture the SupremeUHD’s detail, skin creators should release skins for SupremeUHD and not create EvoX skins for LAQ, it would never do the head justice.
