I have a few new(ish) faces I’d like to introduce you to..
Annyka Bekkers is back with a new line of Blowpop skins and while I’ve always been impressed with her work, this newest bunch has blown away previous expectations.
Each name not only has a distinct range of skin tones and makeups, but the facial details completely transformed the look of my avatar from one skin to the next. It should be noted that I used the same shape for each, so you can really see the difference the skin makes.
Each makeup also comes with two different lip options ending the battle of nude vs. bold. If you’re an indecisive shopper like I tend to be, having the choice of both in one purchase should prove very helpful. And for the eyebrow girls, it also includes three different shapers.
For me, the face always sells the skin, but there are two areas of the body I pay particular attention to – the collarbone and the abdomen. Both are done exactly the way I would hope. The collarbone is beautiful enough to catch the eye, but doesn’t protrude unecessarily and the abdomen is shaded to perfection without falling in to the six pack trap.
If you’ve got a partner, chances are there are other parts of your body he/she cares more about, but they’ll be happy too! Annyka’s attention to detail fully extends to the umm.. centre of the blowpop and she makes the cutest bums.
I guess what I’m trying to say is – if God is in the details then hallelujah Annyka!
P.S. I’m partial to Ava.

I think I’m in love with Ava and Carmen <3
Yes, Carmen is a very close second for sure! So happy to have a beautiful, diverse skin range. <3
gorgeous skins indeed — you can really see the differences from looking at your pictures; i loved how I thought you made different face shapes for each of them. Carmen and Maya caught my eye alot~~ specially on you ^^
Thank you, Anya! The skins are so high quality, Annyka has certainly outdone herself. And they really do look like different shapes altogether! That being said, another difference in the pictures has to be credited to Caliah’s WL settings. I’d been struggling with lighting on the SL presets and just recently switched. I won’t go back, what a difference!
Thanks for reading, and it looks like Carmen is winning.
So cute! I love these girls! Maya is beautiful, I’d go gay for her not going to lie.
Ahahaha Mint! Your comment totally made my day
Maya is one of, if not the best ethnic skin I’ve seen on SL. I think I’ll have to wear it more often.
Thank you so much for stopping by to read and comment!
Hi Hayden,

Hello Elisabeth!
I’m so happy you like the post and the skins, definitely give them a demo!

Funny you mentioned voting, I was playing with the idea of a ‘last skin standing’, so we’ll see who I bring back for the next post. Looks like Maya will be there for sure!
