Jasmine Hexem Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Is there any light/medium skin tones for a black person that don't make me look like I'm smacked by flour or needs some moisture for lelutka because I'm tired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxMare Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 It Girls, PEPE Skins, Amara Beauty, Glam Affair, Pumec, Mila, Skinerry, Bold & Beauty... Just make sure to demo both head and body cause it seems a lot of brands focus on detailed faces but not as much on body, I haven`t tested much lately so can`t really vouch for anyone in that sense... Some offer more diversity, some less, but each store mentioned above has at least a few worth checking out! Btw rather go to in-world store or check their Flickr, MP stores are not always updated on regular bases. Flickr is great source of info when it comes to shopping in SL! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the darkest tone but worth checking out the lighter ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question: Are any of these making FULL BOM skins or just a tattoo for the head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know where the ENVIRONMENT EDITOR is and how to change the lighting? If you do, change it to Annan Adored Optimal Skin No Shadow to view skins and/or take photographs. Here is a screenshot, first go to WORLD > ENVIRONMENT EDITOR. Click ENVIRONMENT SETTINGS. Check CUSTOMIZE MY ENVIRONMENT and check FIXED SKY and then click on the setting name there which may be MIDDAY and a menu of all kinds of different lighting will open. Annan Adored Optimal Skin No Shadow is a great one for viewing skins. You can also find a quicker way but I forgot what the name of the icon on the bottom row is to change your lighting as well.

Laurel Aurelia Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Along with the ones already listed, Tres Beau and Session have some beautiful options for darker toned skins in my opinion. If you aren't already, definitely take a look at Flickr to window shop. Lelutka has a group just for products that work on their heads. You might have to do some digging, and definitely don't trust the vendor ads at face value as they often cannot show their entire range of colors and the trend is to Photoshop. So demo demo demo. And there is something to what FairreLilette says about lighting. My avatar looks really featureless and washed out in certain lighting especially if you use a super bright windlight like Midday. Since I use Firestorm predominantly, I mostly walk around using Nam's Optimal Skin and Prim which is still pretty bright , but not harsh. I hope this is helpful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasmine Hexem Posted November 3, 2020 Author Share Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) i did on FS but not on black dragon (i'm not sure if it has the windlight that you lot are talking about and i use black dragon).

Laurel Aurelia Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 I think since it has EEP , you might have to important windlights to get your old settings back. Fortunately, someone took the time to create EEP doodads for each setting, and put them on MP for free. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Firestorm-Default-Sky-Windlights/20088838 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasmine Hexem Posted November 3, 2020 Author Share Posted November 3, 2020 how do you import those? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurel Aurelia Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 You unpack them like you would a clothing item and it will live in folders in your inventory. Then you should be able to either right click them in your inventory and set it that way and it should also populate where you can change where the basic skies are too. I wish I could show pictures, but I am slagging off at work again >.> and don't have access to my viewers currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an EEP glitch that has yet to be fixed that make people look like plastic dolls. You can clear that by turning off materials on you skin/body. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurel Aurelia Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) @forbrezeIf you don't mind, try sharing a picture with us here so we can see what you are seeing. I've seen people who have their environment settings turned up too high in their head/body hud have a gray cast or practically metallic.

Rowan Amore Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) Well, they all look nice to me. It's going to be difficult finding a skin that is NOT Plain without highlights which is what I assume you meant by 'smacked by flour'. If you're BOM, maybe an old system type skin? Those were mostly flat looking with the darker skins. Edited November 3, 2020 by RowanMinx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne Little Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 How about Revoul? I am not sure if you are using Lelutka or Lelutka Evolution. Revoul has for both heads, this is new for the Evolution heads. Take a look. https://www.flickr.com/photos/revoul/50207209026/in/dateposted/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasmine Hexem Posted November 3, 2020 Author Share Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) ah the "smacked by flour" bit was me saying that the skin looked ashy, sorry but revoul skins are too shiny for me, sorry.

That's the brand you want to investigate. It's actually the brand they use in a lot of their product images. 4 hours ago, forbreze said: i never liked itgirls and those skins makers stuff just look unpleasant on me, sorry Well, in that case I dunno. You could try Angle Rock, but I personally find their skins often are a bit ashy: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/76460 Edited November 3, 2020 by Pussycat Catnap 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuri is the one I'm currently using from ItGirls to go with the head by the same name. I did buy another but don't recall the name at the moment.
