Recently in RL, I did a colour analysis of my complexion and it has become my new obsession! My mum has Spanish & Chinese-Filipino ancestry, and my father has Malay-Filipino ancestry, so I'm something in the middle. Turns out, my brown has 7 shades of neutral and cool undertones and the colour palette that suits me the most is Deep Winter!
Which also explains why most real photos of myself rarely show the brownness, and I always end up looking fair in photos with flash, or soft light (similar to Priyanka Chopra, who turns out to be the same skin tone as me this whole time!).
Also why it's been so rare for me to find brown shades that match my skin (they mostly cater to warmer browns!) and I've had to mix and match lighter and darker browns to get something slightly in-between shades.
And so, in SL I've been on a side quest to try and find a skin tone that is closest to my RL so I can keep consistent with my colour discoveries.
For most of my SL, I'd choose something darker to mimic my tone after a beach trip, but it was always "too brown" or "too red" and never really felt like me. I was never really Sunkiss, but also never really Brownie (although I always wore Brownie).
Thanks to someone's post on Flickr, I discovered the store Moccino, who makes face skins in this new tone I'd never tried before: Illa - a miracle of a tone! Right in-between Sunkiss and Brownie!
So I ran to Velour to find the matching body skin, but there was no Illa in the recent releases. Thankfully, I found it tucked away in their older vendors. Gosh I'm late to the party! But I do hope they include Illa in their latest releases once again! Or at least hope these all stay useable for a long time.
Nothing deep here, but equally as important. :P I'm very happy to be able to play with my colour palette in SL, and happier to have Gigi looking more like me, finally! Goodnight world ♥

A little over a week ago, Zaid was rushed to the Emergency Room due to internal bleeding. After one week in the hospital and multiple daily tests and procedures, Zaid is now stable and still recovering but now has to go back to work.
I am thankful for this grace period, revealing what needed to be revealed, to heal and recover together; Where we finally had a moment to stop all things to hold onto each other and refocus.
Beyond all this, it was a huge reminder of what's really important: every new day full of grace, and every new day with Zaid.
Thank you to all Scafall team members who have written expressing concern. I will be writing another update shortly.

It is with a heavy heart I present these words by Zaid. At the same time, I am so grateful, and so proud. It is a dream to love someone who enjoys creating with me - from brainstorming, to all our eureka moments, the singing and making faces, the crazy acrobats we do for deadlines, to the birth of the final piece and the circles we walk around it afterwards - these are just a few of the things I will deeply miss. We both have background in traditional art, but he is the one who sucked me into the 3D world. My teacher, who was and is so patient and gentle with me. Now I am able to hold my own.
There will never be enough words for how much I feel, but I hope to make him so proud, and I hope you all stay for the ride. I will still be creating with his eyes and his voice in my mind. I know we will have our time to collaborate again, but probably not for a while. If any of you want to write to Zaid, please message me, and I will text it to him as he'll only be able to log in on weekends. Alternatively, please write below!
Thank you all for supporting Scafall - it means the world to us.
