Sunkissed Lemon

In the past year or so, I have been wearing skins with a base body by other creators, much like most people, but when the opportunity presents itself to wear the body skin of the creator of the face portion, I jump at it. When it is also just a stunner of a body skin, it becomes the new norm. While a neck can match, and a tone can be the same, there is a softness to a skin that has to translate head to toes and that is not always the case with buying your finished product from two different creators…do not misunderstand, no one is doing anything wrong, it is just that that overall coverage from one creator can lead to a different kind of feel for your skin. For many of us, skins were on a skin layer only, that was it, then appliers came along and then going to two stores for the final product became a thing and we lost a lot of that, while it makes things a lot easier in many cases, it is just nice when you can feature an all in one vision.

Today head to toes I am Nuve, the body is the Rhea body skin, it is so lovely, and the tones are fabulous. I went with Sunkissed, but I also enjoy many of the other tone options, pay special attention to the ankles and feet when trying on the body skins, because these are almost flawless (anything not perfect is an SL thing not a Nuve thing), and that is saying a lot, because that area on the SLUV is a horror, and they look incredible. I am also wearing the New Mandy skin/tattoo and eyebrows. This skin/tattoo was released over the weekend and she is a stunner, I am wearing it on the Genus Morph head, and I love the nose and also how thick and fabulous the brows are. I am also a huge fan of Nuve underwear (Bakes on Mesh) layers, and have mentioned that more than once…this is a micro bikini set in (Bakes on Mesh) that is just too fabulous to not add to my favourite wearables for whenever in the need. I really enjoy the colour palettes available and they are also mod, so you can tint as much as you like, so fun.

Wanting to show off the skin I went with this jawline length hairstyle by Monso, it is just all sorts of dried in the sun gorgeousness. I love the roots versions of Monso’s hair, because the built in hairbase goes not only to the upper roots, but along the hairline itself, giving a very realistic look. There is a fabulous falling tendril (bangs) option for this hair, but it blocked the face a bit too much when showing of a skin/tattoo for the first time.

Also keeping to the beachy/ocean spirit of the look, this necklace is a stunner by Sigma. You can turn off the seahorse and because the jewellery is mod, you can tint (as I did) the coral to match whatever you need. The necklace has rigged versions as well as unrigged if your body is not catered to, but so many are. Sigma calls the unrigged versions unskinned, which is correct, but makes me giggle every time.
