The "Tribute to Gala" collage represents quality hand drawn original skins since at least September 2006 (when I entered the game). Gala probably had been making them long before. Since I have been in SL her skins have consistently been some of the best in the game and you can see that I have owned many of them. These dates are just when I personally bought the skin. So it is a timeline of my personal enjoyment of Gala skins through the years. Thank you Gala.

I got a new skin and have been using it in blog posts without saying much about it for a week. I really love it though and wanted to focus on it today.

I am not sure why I got a demo of Amberly Europa at Collabor 88. It is so pale its almost white and I have not ever found a glam affair skin that I liked on my avatar previously, but I did get a demo. Wow, I really loved how Glam Affair Amberly looked on my shape, a lot. I blogged it here.

The inexspensive one at collabor 88 was still too light for me, so I decided to go to Glam Affair and get all the demos. I have not ever liked a skin tone there before. The lighter tones looked nice on other people, but I like a tan skin and had not found a tan for me. The skins were really well done and looked gorgeous on other people, but I just could not find one that was "me." Trying on skins on my shape is such a personal preference thing. So I tried the darker colors of Amberly on not really expecting to find a skin tone that I liked. I was wrong, I did not like it, I loved it!


 I love so much stuff about this skin, the tone, the details, the BUTT DIMPLES!! I have not really seen anyone mention them when reviewing this skin, and maybe I just missed it, but the butt dimples are so adorable- LOVE. I think it looks gorgeous on my face too.


 I ended up getting Jamaica 07 (red lips) and Jamaica 09 (neutral face), and I wished that I had understood how this skin is sold because I would have bought the pink lips 02 instead of 09 if I had. You get a "clean" version with each skin and that is basically an awesome bare skin that you can add tattoo layer makeups to easily. Oh well, I will probably be back for the pink and maybe the purple lips too. I really love this skin! If you have not tried the new skin tones at Glam Affair (Artic, Europa, American, Jamaica, India, Africa), go get some demos. The skins are totally different from the previous skin tone lines.
I used Glam Affair Amberly in all of these previous blog posts: Merry Christmas, Kirsten's Windlights, and Vacation.

I went to collabor88 early on the 8th or 9th, but it was so packed and laggy, none of the pictures rezzed for me and I kept crashing. I grabbed the LISP umbrella pose pack (used previously) and gave up. I finally made it back a few days ago and bought two dresses, hair, and some accessories. Better late than never...
