I have no idea what Skinomi skins feel like but have read a few favorable reviews. If it's anything like an Invisible Shield, the surface will have more a lot more grip than yours does currently:
Clear Skin and Screen Protector by Skinomi (shown below)
Here's the one in brown. Select the photos to the side of the main one on the product page and you'll get a sense of the possible texture from the shot of the woodgrain skin being applied. Notice the diamond pattern.
If you want more customer feedback on the quality and idiosyncrasies of the skins, search for Skinomi wood grain and clear skins on more mainstream iDevices and you'll find a lot more reviews.
Here's MR member FatDog talking about the same sort of carbon fiber skin that Skinomi makes for the Aura:

I put one of the Skintomi carbon-fiber on my Viewsonic tablet and it works great. The texture is now better to hold in the hand and the ridges give it a real rugged look.

There's also this, which always adds a bit of texture to smoother surfaces:
Decal Girl Skins for the Aura HD
I'll be picking up both over the next few days.
