and everyone smiled & a little bit of skin.

[jessi_dot]

  I know, I'm a tease. I post pictures of some skins and then nothing. But I am still working on the skins, I promise... I just stupidly didn't write down ALL of the steps while I was creating them and I am having some troubles RE-creating them. Ugh. Anyways, I am still planning on doing them, it will just take some experimenting. And I have another set of skins that are being perfected, and then I should have them up soon. Yay!

In the meantime, I got bored with my selection of natural-ish lips, and felt the need to make some more. I've been feeling gross for the last couple of days, so mindless photoshopping was exactly what I needed.

The first set, 'a little bit of skin', is a blend of various lips from some Glance / Jirka skins, with an edit of a mouseyblue alpha. They come in a variety of natural shades using Pooklet's actions.

Next, 'and everyone smiled', is a lip swiped from a Glance / Jirka skin, yet again. I used these lips for a skin that I am working on and loved them, so I felt the need to create some lips from them. They come in two different sets - a Pooklet-ed set, and an Aelia-ed set. The Aelia'd set comes with some extra colors that I created from Aelia's actions to work on darker skin tones.

These are lovely! I always need new lip sets.
I particularly like the pinks in the Aelia set. I always have a hard time finding the right shades of pinks, so these are perfect.

Thank you!

[jessi_dot]

Thanks! I really like the Aelia colors, too. I love how hers turned out so natural-looking, even though the colors really not natural colors at all. :D

[hat_plays_sims]

There are some really lovely colors here-- I can't wait to mess around with them in game. Thank you!

(And take your time on the skins. They're hard!)

[jessi_dot]

Yeah, these skins are killing me. Luckily, I have another set to post soon-ish so hopefully that will tide people over until I can figure out how to replicate my WIP skins. Ugh.

And thanks! :)

[drankmywar]

Oh, so lovely! Thank you for sharing :)

[jessi_dot]

You're so very welcome! I'm glad you like them.

[eefje00704]

I did not need more lip sets, but who cares, I'm downloading them anyway :D

Oh and I love Breda! She's cute :) And her name made me laugh :p

[jessi_dot]

Ha ha ha, me too! I was browsing names and thought that was one was too weird to not use.

[eefje00704]

Actually I thought it was funny because Breda is a city in the Netherlands. The name means 'wide water', because it's the place where the river Aa becomes wider, and Aa comes from the Old Germanic word ahwo, which means water.

So I just thought 'wide water' was a funny name for a sim. ;)

Even though the last thing I need is more lipsticks--zomg gorgeous. *downloaddownloaddownload* I loveloveLOVE the iridecent effect on some of them.

[jessi_dot]

Yay, I loved that too! It was unexpected but awesome.

And I so know how that is, downloading things I don't need... It's such an addiction!

[lalabubus]

You create lovely make up. Thank you.

[jessi_dot]

No, thank YOU! I'm glad you like it. :D

[jesslove]

Jessi, thanksl! I love the ones in Pooklet's colors, but Aelia's will fit more of my sims. The pinks are particularly lovely. <3

[jessi_dot]

Thanks! I really like all the pinks, too. :D

[dancingwithmyself]

Sweet mother of pearl, I'm in LOVE with your lipsticks, jess! <3

It's a shame my computer's dead with viruses though. D:
Maybe when I get it fixed finally I can download them.

[jessi_dot]

Oh, boo! Viruses totally suck. This makes me sad for you.

And I am so glad that you like them! I'm quite pleased with how they turned out.

In other news, I am still holding on to your sims for my upcoming skintone set. I have them wearing the skins in bodyshop looking totally adorable. I can't wait for you to see them. :D
