Your Favorite Custom Skins?

A thread like this hasn't been around for a while, so why not open one?

I've been using Kurasoberina's Primer Skin as a default replacement in SD since forever.

I actually wonder why I picked the SD one (1K face & bodies). Do we need a special mod for the HD, HD+ or UHD ones?

Anyway, that aside, I also have some of Kurasoberina's older skins as non-defaults to use on some sims. They are available here. I have the Freckled Starfruit which has freckles all over the face and body and Epicanthic Starfruit which I use on Asian sims (it helps their eyes look more epicanthic).

I've been hearing a lot of people Brntwaffles skins, I've never tried them but I just downloaded their Freckled Berry, which a mix of Kurasoberina's freckled starfruit skin and Brntwaffles' signature Blueberry Pie skin. I'm planning to try it today.

Also, here are some of my sims using the Default SD Primer Skin by Kurasoberina.

Please do share your favorite custom skins, and do provide pictures if possible!

I use several different skins in my game. I use Kurasoberina's HD versions for my darkskinned and Asian sims, and her freckled starfruit whenever I can, as I just love it.

The main characters in my story "wear" Navetsea's Adult Hairy4, which I think is very natural and realistic looking, even on toddlers!

Considering the different variations of skins available...I might be going on a skin-hunt. :evil grin:

I'm starting to sound like this guy. :nervous:

@jillbg, I might check out the freckled skin that you use for your sims and the Navetsea one. I'm not sure if I downloaded the HD+, but I have kurasoberina's various Starfruits. And I might also take a good long look at Mango Smoothie. Because frankly every sim...here that I see looks really nice.

Mango Smoothie is my favourite too. It's really soft and plain, I love it, even though my man sims don't look all that "manly" using it :D

Lincoln is using a lot of beat up makeup, but you can see it's still nice and smooth.

And Ester dressed up showing a really pale, almost white addon skin, Mango Yoghurt ( She has a pinky blush on, but you can tell the forehead is quite pale - and that isn't even the lightest setting )

Edit - Sorry for one more image, but Smoothie also looks really beautiful in dark tones as well, as Illustrated by Jayda -

I tried Primer, but it looked so pixelated in my game that I couldn't bear it, and I took it out. Other people don't seem to have that issue, but I do.
I'm incredibly picky when it comes to skins, it took me about six years to switch out my defaults I'd had since the first replacements came out, to Mango Smoothie, but I'm glad I eventually did.

I have custom skins, but I got them so long ago I've completely forgot what they are and have way too many packages to tell what is what :D

maybe someone else konws, in cas i can choose a skin and it'lls ay something like "s w e e t" or "s e x y" or "s t a r b u r s t" across the colour thingy.
