sarada has various facial features that are from sasukes face and various facial features that are from sakura's for instnace she has the same smirk as sasuke same fourhead of sakura, same facial shape as sakura and her face doesn't match that of karin in any shape or form so its my opinion that kishimoto is simply trolling us to ensure that we do not miss a single chapter

on another note

who is to say that Orochimaru body hopped into a normal human notice how he has perfected cloning so who is to say that he didn't actually clone himself

and then body hop into a clone of his younger self Don't take this personal, but I don't believe you. So often when I skim through the manga, it takes me a moment to determine which one is Sarada and which one is Karin. She looks nothing like Sakura. Even in those pictures where they edit Sarada to look like Sakura she looks nothing like Sakura. Maybe it's the placebo effect that makes you think that way.
