Skin Fair 2025 – GA.EG, Alt3 and Sparkle Skye

I am tall in RL, so when I landed in Second Life and everyone was a giant, it was a really bizarre experience for me. I never set all my sliders to 100, but I would feel really strange standing next to any girl who was a good head and a half taller, because that was not my reality at all. It took a lot for Mel to convince me to go closer to scale, and I did eventually. There were a lot of tears along the way, but while I am taller according to the numbers in the edit appearance, I am as tall as I feel myself to be realistically. I’m rambling, but I swear I have a point here… height plays a lot into the body I wear. For me, Slink was a no-brainer, and it had a lot to do with the legs, especially the knees. When changing bodies due to content, I chose Ebody Reborn for much the same reason. My friend Whimsy is the same—without even discussing it, it was about the legs for us. When we looked at some options out there, we felt that regardless of leg length, they still felt like short legs just stretched. Because of that, knees end up playing a huge part when it comes to skins, and today’s skins are by ALT3. As far as the knees go, they do not disappoint at all. In fact, they go above and beyond in my book. Skin Fair just opened on Friday, and there are skins galore, but funnily enough, I had a skin shopping experience days before it opened and saw so many knees to look at. So, when ALT3 was put on and the knees were perfect, everything else just fell into line beautifully.

The skins come in 30 tones, ranging from fantasy to human, and I have not seen so many fantasy options that I’ve wanted to try myself. As you know, fantasy is not my usual go-to, so for a skin tone to bring that out in me—that’s winning. The human tones are also beautiful; I’m wearing tone 3, but that 00 is incredible looking. If you’re a skin creator, they’ve also opened up the options for you to make faces for the body skin line by applying for their developer kit HERE.

The current skin line is made for Legacy and Reborn Waifu. I am not wearing Waifu, just the Reborn body on its own, but it still provides complete body coverage. The skin line is also packed full of mod enhancements by other creators. There are muscle add-on skin options for the Muscle Mami mods and more. It includes skin tinters, and the skins themselves are modifiable. I’m not wearing it in the gif, but in the main picture, I am wearing the toned belly layer. You could dive into the options ALT3 has and not come up for air for days. I look forward to seeing other creators adopt this body as their go-to, and if they don’t, there are also neck blenders to make your faces work with as much as possible.

I’m also wearing one of their own skins on my face, which is Naomi. She has a great look, and I especially like the little smirk line on her cheek. The skin is EvoX and comes with nude or gloss lips. I’m wearing the gloss, which is very subtle.

I’m wearing the Ga.Eg head Scarlett, which is a very youthful-shaped head, and it didn’t take me long to get it looking exactly how I wanted. It has an abundance of features on its head HUD. There’s also a fully decked-out animation HUD, along with many add-ons. It’s definitely something to check out at Skin Fair. It’s always fun playing around with the shape sliders on a new head, because they all differ slightly, so you can get more experience with how shapes work the more you play.

The other thing I spent a few days doing before Skin Fair was running around Second Life, in love with my Body Art by Sparkle Skye. I may have gotten a teaser before the event opened up, and honestly, I was only wearing clothing that would show them off for days. If you’ve been around Second Life for a long time, you know that Sparkle Skye is incredibly talented, and she keeps expanding on that with different things she does in Second Life and Real Life (she’s very artsy). So much so that she hand-painted these flowers and then brought them into Second Life as these stunning body art options. They are created on the tattoo layers, but they’re not considered tattoos—more like the idea that you lay back on a rock at some huge music festival and someone just decided to paint you right there for a few dollars and a beer. This set of dainty flowers comes in four colours, with left and right options, so you can wear just one or two like I did in different colours. The ivory and blush have been my go-to all week. The placement also has me loving them because they look like you just picked up some flowers while walking through a field and tucked them into your pants to keep your hands free for more. I love a good origin story.

The Baggy Jeans and Tubetop set I am wearing is part of the Tough Love collection coming to Equal 10 on the 10th by Cynful, there are PBR versions as well as regular and speaking of mods, my word does this cover them all ( I hope all because honestly the amount of work that would have gone into this release is bananas) there are rolls versions, squish versions, there are flat and high feet versions for the jeans, there are mod versions for the panties bottoms and let us just say that your inventory on just unpacking reborn alone is going to grow upwards and outwards, there are 46 pieces in that folder. I think that Cynful tough loved herself! I am so grateful for the flat and high feet options for pants because it really does help you get dressed.

I was recently over at the mesh upload (free) sandbox and ran into the owner of Geek, he was so lovely to chat to and he gave me this adorable Daisy that you hold between two fingers and is just so delightful, it really was a week of flowers for me. I could not resist tucking one behind my ear also, versatility is awesome.
