You also need to try on demos because some skins may have an incredible face, but there may be dark shading under the breasts and butt cheeks that look unsightly. The demos are great because you can see the total package before you invest the Linden.

I can take you several places for demos. Then you can take them home and try them on and see what works best for your shape, with the least amount of tweaking.
Be careful though. There was one skin I loved from that place everyone seems to love to go for Neko skin (actually it was the shop under the Neko place; where doesn't matter or I'd try to be more specific), but it didn't look like its demo in one important aspect. - The demo had a really neat tat on it that I thought would go great with some vampire hunter clothing I had found. So I bought the skin. Skin did not have that tat (and no, it did not say "demo", it was a cross, or something like that, burned into the skin). I IM'd the creator, who was on-line at the time, but she completely ignored me, so I never bought anything there again. Left a bad taste in my mouth for the Neko place also, though they didn't have anything to do with it (I think).
