I am looking for a skin and have been trying to find what i want for a long time but with not luck, so i thought i woul ask here. It can either be one i go buy, or if you can recommend a skin maker who does custom works :)

I am after a
-pale skin
-minimal makeup
-freckles
-a quality skin
-not the hand drawn painted look (ie sin skins, which is the only one i have found that comes close)

any ideas??

look for kid skins, they would have freckles and minimal makeup

no reason an adult can not wear a kid skin
(just be aware that other parts may or may not be as detailed as you would like)

I have a fair skin kid skin, with freckles and no makeup

alot of exoticas skins have freckles and she has quite a few that are light in nature and a couple from each pack with no/next to no makeup. She has Demos.

I believe Fleur has a freckled set, but I can't remember what the makeup looks like...I think it was light. They do have some very minimal makeups there in other sets.

i wear panjen`s Joy skin. it has lots of freckles all over and i love it. Very cute. Not too pricey either. they had a few with freckles.

i have another from Tete a Pied called Viviant but it has a heart over the eye as the makeup. i am sure there must be a normal one though.

RaC skins have some really cute freckled skins. I have been wearing the Bridgette for a few months now and love it. I have a freckled skin from Insolence, but I asked the creator if she could do it. I really like that one as well. The new S5 from Tuli has a really cute freckled version also. For a low cost option, Eloh Elliots skins are really nice quality, and they are free.

A friend of mine has a skin from Hi-Rop that sounds similar to what you are looking for.

Where IS Insolence? I tried finding it in the past. I can't find it using search, (all I see is a clothing store). Is that the correct spelling?

She sells lingerie and some accessories too, so it may actually be the clothing store you mentioned.

'Just Another Shop" has beautiful skin packs...32 styles for 100L and each has a freckled option. I have them and there's a couple in the pack that are very minimalist and nice. It's one of the best skin deals in SL and they are quite beautifully done.

I think a lot of skin makers sell a pale freckled skin. I have ones by Gala and RealSKIN.

actually very few skin places do a true pale skin, they do slightly less tanned ones.


I went to RaC, but their version o pale certainly isnt mine, and no i dont want a vampire skin, just a naturally pale,peaches and cream look, which very few skin places seem to make.

I will try out the few others mentioned here, but it seems that i may have to look into getting it custom made, so if anyone could recommend someone that would be great

I've had a big problem trying to find a freckled skin that didn't make my avatar look as if she had a bad case of acne! I finally setled on Tuli - but I'm still looking for the "perfect freckles".

Ann, I couldn't find your post on Celestial Studios skins, so stuck this skin related question in here as I know you are a huge fan of them. I have seen a skin there I like very much, however I can't find the shape. The 'Body Shop' boards never rezz for me which makes me think they are empty. Believe I've left my av there for ages and gone afk and come back still nothing there. Question is, does Celestial do body shapes, if so where are they?

Thanks

I had the same exact problem when I was looking for skins - I wanted a nice porcelain skin, but not goth.

Gala Phoenix has an "Alabaster" line that I have not removed since I put it on. The last I was there she was also having a half price sale (500L).

If you would like to see my skin - shoot me an IM in world. I LOVE my Gala skin and though I have tried others over the last 10 months...I won't trade my Gala skin for anything. :)

Aren't freckles an appearance slider, regardless of your 'skin'?
