Hypocrite? Me?! Nevahr!

One of the biggest hurdles of being a hypocrite is admitting you actually are one, so yeah. Here we go.

I'm a big, fat hypocrite!

I cringe when I walk into messy houses, despite the fact I have the worst problems keeping my own clean. I deplore my husband for the amount of coke he drinks, when the ice tea I drink is probably JUST as bad. My overweight relatives frustrate me with their lack of ambition to become healthy, but here I am, *completely* out of shape myself. (Skinny I may be, but athletic I am not.)

I think it's natural to pay more attention to faults in others than in ourselves, but in my case, it seems the things I'm more IRKED by are the things I actually do, too... But I think part of the reason that is is that I want someone to actually prove me wrong so I feel hope that I can actually fix my own problems, too.

So yeah. This was an INCREDIBLY tangentical blabber just to say all of one thing:

I installed some CC hair/skin/eyes/makeup into my game... And I actually like them. XD Which is TOTALLY irrelevent to what I actually just said above, because it's not anything *bad*... I just feel really dumb for doing something that really irked me about other blogs. But maybe because it was just the wrong CC? I dunno. Anyways!

I went to an enormous amount of trouble to find the skin I liked the best:

(Click her to see all of them!)

I settled on either 2, 4, or 9.

• 1 is the original EA skin (if you're curious about the 'control image')
• 2's shading (or lack there-of) I really like, but the lips are a bit TOO light and look odd on really pale sims that shouldn't have such light lips. Like, Brad looked like he was wearing lip gloss. XD
• 4 has some really awesome shading, but it only looks good on certain sims. I may have to download it as a non-default.
• 9 looks great on almost all my Sims, except Elder females, where the under-eye gets a tad blurry... It also tinges the skin a bit more peachy, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

I still really like the EA skin, don't get me wrong, so what I may do is just download non-defaults (if I can find them) of all the skins I like, and just use them on the Sims they look good on. That's just a lot of work I'm too lazy to do, sooo... Mm.

So as of right now, I have #9 installed, and this is what it looks like on Sims you'd actually recognize:

As you can see, the skin's more noticable on some sims than others.
(Also, I have two types of custom eyes on here; Jeb and Brad and wearing one kind, while Alesha, Margo, and Meredith are wearing another.)

Thoughts? Flames? ;D

Oh, and as a bonus image:

With the help of the new Poser mod I got this image of zee family, and it was way too cute not to show off.
