I am feeling better today - maybe my typist had not had enough sleep yesterday.
I have been curious to try some skins I have seen on the feeds that have teeth showing. So, I went to Vive9 hoping to get a demo and try. I was happy to discover that in addition to all of their demo skins, they have a free folder of skins labeled as beta that I could use for my trial.The folder includes 3 skin tones of a soft pink makeup with and without teeth and freckles.
One of the reasons I was so curious about skins showing teeth is incredibly silly. When I was 11 years old, I had a friend who was very, very pretty and also happened to have an overbite. In an effort to emulate her looks, I walked around biting my bottom lip so that my teeth would show like hers did. In pictures of these skins, they seemed to have the same expression I must have had on my face for half of the school year. It must have worked on some level since my friend and I "went steady" with twin boys in our class. (It is a wonder my parents are not blind from all the eye rolling I must have induced from them when I was a kid.)
Anyway, this skin? While quite pretty, is not really me. It does, however, nail my sixth grade expression. It also makes me look a little confused. I might save it and wear it when I need to look incredibly naive. ("I am not sure who deleted the floor in here, Jerremy, Honey.")
