I really don’t think it’s any secret that I love buying new skins.  And I’ll confess that lately I have been extremely bad about grabbing up new skin after new skin (although I’m sure the skin makers love me for it).  So I thought I’d start a new mini-series dedicated to my newest skin finds, which I hope will be helpful in giving a variety of beautiful skins their due airtime.  Unfortunately, I don’t really have enough time to do a fullscale review post for each new skin.  However, I won’t be recommending any skins with seams or obvious flaws, and I highly recommend you try the demos anyway, so you can use your own judgment.

I just picked up this beautiful BARDOT-Yoko skin from [KA] Skins last night, and I really fell in love with it immediately.  The skin tone is gorgeous and the selection of available makeups is amazing.  Because I am trying to be a bit sensible, I bypassed the fatpack and bought a single makeup that I can wear quite regularly.  And this one (makeup 06) really grabbed my attention.  I love the thick, smoky eye makeup, and the subtle lips are absolutely perfect for me.

I was already a big fan of Kira Ahn’s skins, and this new skin is certainly no exception.  The body is always gorgeous and smooth, and the makeups are exceptional.  If you’re in the market for a new skin, I highly recommend you try all of the demos at [KA] Skins.  And be sure to check out the awesome clothing, too!

One more thing:  I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention a cool little Flickr group which might also be helpful in giving you new skin ideas.  Be sure to join the SL Skin Reviews Flickr, which showcases a wide variety of different skin reviews from over 30 different contributors.  And if you’re a skin blogger, be sure to add your skin reviews to the pool.
