Lily, the latest of Ryker Beck’s skin collections at Exodi, should be released sometime in the next week or so, but I couldn’t wait.  You see, a couple of weeks ago, Ryker sent me a prototype of this fantastic skin to try on.  To say I fell in love instantly would be a gross understatement.  When I learned that Lily would be featured in the auction at Requiem, an event held last weekend to benefit the Human Rights Campaign, I knew I had to have it…the fact that proceeds from the auction were going to such a worthy cause was just a bonus.

The release line will feature eight makeup selections, each with light and dark brows, as well as a faded option.  I’m continually impressed with Ryker’s skills as an artist as each new Exodi skin line is more refined than the last.  The shading and highlighting of Lily is neither too strong, nor too subtle, and combine to create very natural body definition.  Lily will be available in four skin tones: Dove, Cedar (shown), Cherry and Elm.

The makeup options tend toward autumnal tones that are rich and saturated, apropos as we wind down the summer.  But, as a bonus, each makeup includes a faded version that is softer and perfect for everyday wear, regardless the season.  In the photograph below you can see a side-by-side comparison of Vamped in both its standard and faded versions.

Finally, what would a skin post be without the gratuitous booty shot?  Actually, I just couldn’t resist as Lily’s backside is every bit as gorgeous as the rest of the skin.  The lingerie that I’ve chosen is from Annyka Bekkers’ Blowpop.  Annyka has recently begun creating lingerie and it is Phenomenal with a capital P.  It’s not often you will find lace that is drawn so well and with such amazing detail.  Annyka currently has three lingerie selections, each in several colors, Felice, Jolene and Yvette, which I am wearing.  She also has a selection of lace-top stockings that are simply gorgeous.

The hair I’ve selected is AnaLu by Truth in Coffee and sticking with the AnaLu theme, the poses are from AnaLu Fresh Poses by Ana Lutetia.
