MESH: AUTO RESIZE!!

Tired of re-doing your shape because it doesn't quite fit the mesh standard? Tired of having your inventory full because of all the mods you've already made? Tonight...someone special informed me that mesh is going auto! But.........it's only a preview of the future. Right now, the creators of Jamman Jewels and Accessories are offering their latest release, Ultra Mesh Rigged Fingernails, with the ability to auto-size the nails to your avatar's hand!

Auto-sizing! What an idea! No more trying to fit you avatar with the mesh - no more hassle! At least, with these. Be on the lookout in the near future for the rest of the mesh community to convert to this new system of consumer-convenience that, quite honestly, should have been considered in the beginning.

However, I digress, better late than never! : )

NEW VIEWER = BETTER FASHION!

Minds from the creators of beloved clients like Firestorm, Exodus, Catznip and Linden Labs are joining forces to create a viewer that allows clothing to be seen like never before! It's very exciting if you a) love fashion and/or b) create it! Still in it's beta stages, the future Materials Project Viewer enables 'normal and specular maps on Second Life objects.' HUH, you say?? It means fashion items will be higher quality with options to make them shine and have a bump texture. Check out the demo video from Leezu:

Last Day: Cosmetic Fair!!

Soooo..*drumroll* it's the last day of Cosmetic Fair!! That is Tuesday, April 30.. Sad? Don't be - there's still hours left in the day..that said, here are my final faves in no particular order:

---

Here I am, fresh-faced, no added on makeup. Again, I ask that you use this as a reference to compare the other pictures to...no photoshop, just the real deal (skin = al vulo - aisha)!

---

6. MONS / Makeups ... Smokey Eyeshadow in chocolate ... Comes in 10 vibrant, but cool colors. On the right is their Amazon Eyes shadow shown in lime. It's a heavier eye shadow, making it more dramatic and both are definitely a high quality pick!

---

7. Kooqla ... Spaghetti eyeliner ... A very shimmery, ready to party/dramatic eye makeup which I think would look great on any skin (realistic or soft).

---

8. elymode makeup ... Confetti-ish eye-shadows ... Comes in bold, bright and soft with 6 colors respectively.. This makeup is also very fun and well-done! If you want to glam it up a bit or are ready for a night out, then this makeup is a must-have in your bag.

---

9. BOOM ... Pick up Liners xtra thick - Dramatic ... A nice thick black liner every gal/guy should have in their inventory - lets face it, its just an essential! And BOOM does a great job giving it a reflective quality on the upper lid.. A winged-tip version is also available.

---

10. .LXB. ... Striking (eyebrows) ... Comes with very thick eyebrow options and, as we know, thick brows do grant lots of added character to the face and overall ambiance to an avatar. Again, I see this as an essential to have in your stock! This particular set comes in 4 color/thickness options (black and brown) and offers a brow shape (not shown).

---

There's so many other great makeups available @ the Cosmetic Fair at this time - so be ready to shop!

Cosmetic Fair 2013!

Oh my! Okay..did you hear..Cosmetic Fair is going on and it ends NeXt Tuesday, April 30!! Man..where does the time go?!?! There are so many fabulous designers participating in this year's event it's insane.. Seriously, I tried to pick my top *5* picks for you but that is only where I leave off today... Everyone is really showing their talent..and if you love makeup as much as I do, then go now and don't miss this year's Cosmetic Fair!

Before I show you my likes, here is a fresh-faced me! No fancy photoshop edits - just raw shots here.. So let this be a guide to show you the difference of each product:

---

Here are the start of my top faves and why I love them thus far:

1. Oceane ... Dee Full Makeup - Cat (fatpack) ... Comes with 9 options from Army, Black, Cerulean,
Chocolat, Copper, Green, Grey, Purple and Red.. Plus an alpha for system lashes .. This makeup is very dramatic and reminiscent of a Mac-type makeup! It really gives a great deal of style and accentuates natural features, enhancing everyday contours of the eyes and lips.

Eyeshadow only can be purchased separately, for mix and matching purposes!

---

2. Shakeup! ... Sessie Lip gloss Dual ... 6 lip glosses plus add-ons: pout lips, teeth, teeth with gap (shown in 2nd pic) .. Very high quality add-ons and the Dual takes a matted upper lip and matches it with its corresponding glossy lower lip. The combination of the styles gives this lip look a very abstract and fashion forward feel.

---

3. Rozena ... A very natural-looking selection: Baby Gloss v2, comes in citrus, hot pink, purple and scarlet..and it's now one of my most faves because it's so soft yet realistic looking!!

---

4. Pink Acid ... Ultra glossy in beautiful spectrum shades of pink and natural hues! It comes with teeth options on select items. With such a big variety, you'll definitely have the hardest time finding another avatar like yours with any combination of their makeups!

---

5. .Pekka. ... Metalic under eyeliner - Turquoise ... fatpack comes with 14 colors, high quality keeping it simple yet sexy.

---

More to come, stay tuned!

Pose Fair!!

With over 60 vendors that are all about poses - you are bound to find something amazing at this year's Pose Fair - even if you weren't looking! It started just yesterday and will run 'til April 14th (only 2 weeks!). Poses are really so much fun because it's not limited to single static poses - nope! There's friend poses, couples poses and most come with props, like these ones from Elephante Poses:

1. "Call Me Maybe" ... This is a fun, playful set, it comes with 6 poses centered around, what else - a mesh celly! 

---
2. "Leaving Through the Window" ...this is an art/photo lovers pick I'm sure! It lets you be more creative with people wondering why they didn't think of creating something like this already! The window frame is color-changeable (script driven). There's also 8 poses scripted in it, too!

 

These are just a preview..Of course, Elephante's friend poses are also fun - made for 2 avatars at a time, and they can work for either males or females. The couple poses are more intimate - so if you're looking to get closer to your special someone, then definitely check them out!
