I used to think that I didn’t wear dark skin tone skins -let’s say it BLACK skin tones, because I couldn’t identify with them. Chalk that up to being white and American. But then, I realized I also didn’t identify with being blue or pink or any other color which I am known to wear……..so why the hang up?
That was when I started experimenting. I made it a point to pick up black and or just darker skin tones (let’s face it I’m a pasty white girl in both lives). And well, I just didn’t love them. Any of them.
One of my good friends in SL is African American and has gone through various black skins. I always feel bad telling her “Man, I can’t really see definition on your FACE.” but usually it’s true – and I don’t want her to look crazy.
Now my opinion is one of someone seeking an exotic color of skin – and not of an ethnic person looking for skin they can personally identify with. That being said. OMG.
OMG.
OMG.
This skin is absolutely beautiful. The skin tone is rich and vibrant and the makeup is completely gorgeous.
The party dress is just one of many gorgeous items at the Lemania Cupid’s Arrow Hunt that started on 2/1 and goes until 2/28. A huge bouncy skirt combined with vibrant striped makes this a perfect compliment to such an elegant skin.
