I am with Allan here.  My son's face looks sickly green in Kodachrome.  
The little fellow looks much more healthy in real life and in Velvia.
Velvia will give unatural color skin if underexposed but it is OK with
proper exposure/slight overexposure.  I have had good luck with Sensia 
for "people pictures".
