Which skin tones do YOU prefer?

Making decisions can be hard sometimes.  This is one of those times!  I've been toying with the idea of removing certain skin tones in the Entice line.

The problem is: which ones?  Several are quite similar to each other, but they're all somewhat different as well.  Almond is "yellower" than Cinnamon... Mocha and Truffle are similar shades, but Truffle is "redder".

While these skins are all different, they are slightly redundant and kind of a strain on store space.  So, some of them need to go.

If you're a Nora skin user - I'm asking you which skin YOU prefer.  Along with sales information, I may just be able to make a decision without pulling my hair out!   Hee!

I would say to keep your darkest and lightest. Working from the darkest, Espresso, skip every other skin on down the list. By adjusting your sliders up or down you can pretty much match the intermediate tones. It was a heck of a sale! It took me 20 minutes to get in and of course the lag was bad. I wound up not getting skins I thought I got and doubling up on skins by mistake. Heh Heh, maybe I should have gotten a male skin so I can dress up like the original Speed Racer from the cartoons or even the upcoming movie! GoSpeed

I love love LOVE latte and champagne, and I would like you to keep both too, because even though they are very similar, they aren't the same and i'll cry if they go!!! I also heart Cinnamon and Almond.. ARGH.. I am of no help, at all!

I know latte and champagne are similar, but they do provide for different looks -- so I would vote for keeping both of them :) Thanks again for the great sale! I wish you well with your future plans :)
First off, thank you for the fabulous sale. :) As a result of it, I have skins from all the skintone ranges except the two darkest. It was, admittedly, a little hard to see the difference between some of them in store, so it may be a good idea to consolidate into fewer skintones. On the other hand, when I switch between them on my avatar, the distinctions between each are quite clear. Still, between Cream and Espresso the rest sort of seem to fall into pairs. Looking first at Latte and Champagne, Latte may not be needed to cover the gap between Cream and Champagne if you take into account the modifying option. To me, it looks like Latte and Champagne have similar warmth and mainly differ in lightness. I do like the fact a lot that you have both Almond and Cinnamon, because its often hard to find a medium-dark skin that looks naturally medium-dark rather than tanned, and I think both of these do that job for different types of medium-dark. Then again, the sliders can add a bit of red or yellow too. If I had to pick one of these two over the other, I would lean towards Cinnamon because its the more unusual and because I think its easier to use the sliders to warm up a skin than to cool it down. I picked the Mocha over the Truffle tone myself, but comparing the Mocha and the Cinnamon I think it looks like one may be able to get close to Mocha by darkening Cinnamon. Since silly me didn't get a Truffle I can't compare Truffle and Mocha directly, though, but whichever you can get closer to by darkening Cinnamon (if that one is kept)could probably go. I also didn't get an Espresso, but like Cream it looks like its distinctly at one end of the scale and not really part of a pair as the others. So, I think I would keep Cream, Champagne, Cinnamon, Truffle and Espresso. Perhaps you could include notecards with the skintones that you keep with suggested slider settings for getting close to the ones you removed?

I always love your champagne colore skin cuz I'd like to show myself healthy in SL. It's not so blight, and not too dark. It suits with dress of rose pink, orange/vermilion, and peridot yellow well. I tested many other shop's skins, and I like your's best. Thank you Sezmra! :)
