Roslin Petion and CJ Carnot of Tete a Pied held a preview event today for their new skin line - Vivant - which debuts Monday. She may not remember, but Roslin actually did all my custom freckled skins way back when (well, OK it was only last fall). Today, I rediscovered TaP and sincerely think the Vivant line will raise the bar in a big way.

Here’s a look at four of the new ones coming your way tomorrow. In particular, I want to point out the eyebrows, which are absolutely perfect in my opinion. I *really* love them. I don’t do “bits or butts” in this blog, but I can tell you, you’ll be very happy if you care about what’s underneath your clothes For me, it’s all about the makeup.

Note: These pictures have not been retouched in any way. Just cropped and framed on the white background.

From left to right (click for full size):

• TaP Vivant Buff (tone), Sultry (style), Makeup 3 * this is my absolute favorite*
• TaP Vivant Bronze (tone) Basic Nude (style), Makeup 1
• TaP Vivant Blush (tone) Candy (style), Makeup 3
• TaP Vivant Buff (tone) Pin-up (style), Makeup 1

I hope you’ll agree that these are exceptional. There will be 6 skin tones, 16 styles (I think!) and 3 makeup variations for each tone. Singles are $500L and packs of 3 are $1200L, which is a total steal.

You can’t go right this second but you can go tomorrow. So do that and try the demos!
