Hello. I want to make a character for commercial use, have already sculpted head and body (based on g8f). Now I want to make a custom skin, but don't want to make it from scratch, especially normal map. So the question is - are there any g8f skins on the market, which can be used as a base for further customization and selling? How to find such products?

At the very least you need a product that specifically says it's a Merchant Resource - but you probably also want to read all the documentation to ensure that it can be used for your specific needs.
A place to start looking might be Skin Builder 8 for Genesis 8 Female(s) which states it can be used to create skins and is also a Merchant Resource. Make sure you follow the advice in the description to double-check everything: "Please read the User Guide and Merchant Resource Agreement to get an easier understanding on tips and workflow regarding how this product can be used."
Any product marked as a merchant resource can be included in your own products for sale according to the terms of the license.
Raiya's Perfectly Imperfect skin series are a great place to start and derivatives can be used for commercial products. Make sure you buy the product for G8 as these cover multiple generations seperately.

There are many artists selling skins you can use as a basis for your own but most of them require you to make alterations and do not allow them to be used on figures you give away as freebies. Check the documentation.
To search the entire store simply search for 'merchant resource' in the storefront and use the figure filter check boxes to restrict the results to G8/G8.1. e.g.:
