And if you scroll all the way down to the eyeshadow section on this page, there's one that has eyeshadows that are a lower eyelid crease that might help achieve a monolid look: http://simplelife.chagasi.com/sims3.html
I thought this was a pretty good shot of the mansion on a stormy night.
Sarah and her brother had decided to turn in for the night, Sarah slept well, but
her brother spent half the night tossing and turning and worrying about what eyes
might be lurking in the closets.
The next morning Sarah discovered a quiet little garden, the poor plants
seemed to have been forgotten about, and begged for a little tender love and
care. She hoped the owners would not mind her helping out a bit.
Fred: What ya doing?
Sarah: You startled me! I'm just watering these plants. It looks like they haven't
had water in years.
Fred: If Constance finds out you touched her gardens, she'll Axe you.
Trust me, you don't want to mess with the widow bride.
Sarah: I'm not afraid of some old bride.
Constance: Creepies and crawlies, tails of a rat...Call in the spirits
wherever they're at.Witches and Wizards, wherever you dwell, give
us a hint by ringing a bell.
Constance: Looking for husband number 13....I think this young
Human might do just fine.
Sarah still couldn't find her brother...knowing him he probably fled
at sunlight, the boy was a coward, just the drop of a pin and he would scream
in fright. She wandered down the corridors, ignoring the paintings on the wall, each
seemed to follow her every movement, but it didn't bother her.
Daniel: Good Morning Sarah....I must say you don't seem frightened at all.
Sarah: I'm not afraid of anything.
Daniel: You might think yourself brave, Sarah. But everyone has fears.
Sarah: So, what's your story? It seems like everyone here has a history.
Daniel: I think it might be better if I showed you.
Daniel held his hand out, beckoning Sarah to take it.She hesitated a moment,
and felt a small twinge of fear, the first time she was nervous about anything but
after a few moments she took his hand.
Constance: Well, Hello there handsome.
Thomas: Hola, Senorita.
Constance: So do you believe in love at first sight? Or should I float by again?
She gave Thomas a flash of her smile and brushed her hair back.
Thomas: No No no no. You don't go nowheres.
Constance: You know, this party is dead...Why don't you and I go somewhere more
lively.
Thomas falls to the ground letting out a small sigh.
Costance: -laughs- Are you okay?
Thomas: Si, I'm ok...okay.
Constance: Alright, come with me handsome.
Finally was able to log in to this site from my computer. I'm not sure what the problem was, but I did several things so I think one of them fixed it. Going to get my newest update posted, do the things I need to do, then will probably play some more.
Jacob got up to eat his breakfast. Today's menu included a piece of pumpkin pie.
Oliver had to attend his first day of high school.
All the family, minus Oliver, had band practice in the morning.
Jacob had to leave the practice so he could finish one of his opportunities.
In this picture, Brandon and Lily got a little romantic. I also think that the picture by Lily's head is their prom picture. I'll have to go check it out, but I believe it is.
The Goth family set up their instruments outside the theater to make some tip money.
I originally thought this Sim, Latonya Goth, was a descendant of original townies but I was wrong. She's just a pudding face Sim who happened to marry into the family. I only included her because I had the picture of her, lol.
Jacob was one of the lucky ones to get tips.
Oliver stayed at home to get his homework done.
Lastly, Lily went to a party where she met this teenaged girl. I forgot her name, but I think she's related.
@Emily4331 - Perfect...that "overlay" was exactly what I needed. Haruo choking on a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
His son's family tree with both sets of grandparents (evidently Fiona became a "cougar" and married Haruo's friend...now his best friend is his father-in-law... oh dear...and Fiona is pregnant with River's half-sister - as if Life wasn't complicated enough...).
River is a three-time mother...(third on the way) - her half-sister is going to be younger than her oldest daughter. I dunno what the heck is going on with that town but they're having babies left n' right.
"Quit having a freak-out, Haruo...It's the third time your wife has had a kid. Calm yourself and get your bu** to the hospital to be with your wife when she gives birth)..."

@Silverofdreams30 Yep. It has been a little slow on here, but at least it's not dead.
I can't believe you've had that cold for 3 weeks!
You need to step away from that Disney game and grace the thread with your handsome guy sims again.
@Emily4331 Wow! Beautiful lady sim! And outfit! I showed the pictures to husband and he was impressed.
I chuckled when you said this:
The realistic feet are from GrueSims so kudos to them. They'll will be credited on my blog, don't worry. Step on toes, I will not!
Love it!
So, will you provide a working DL to Gruesim's better looking feet on your blog? I didn't even know there was another "realistic feet" mod out there besides Bloom's until Bekkasan directed me to the most awesome cc sandals on MTS where you can change the color of the toenails. (They were credited on there.) I tried to find a link on Gruesim's site at that time, but didn't find it. I know you have some magic up your sleeves at finding all the good cc.
You've created some cool unisex sandals there yourself.
@Brandontaylor Enjoyed your updates. Glad you were able to log back on and post.
Wow...when I first looked at Latonya I didn't see pudding face at all. 🤷♀️ I think she's pretty.
Maybe it's her eyes...Do you use custom eyes?
@Nikkei_Simmer Glad that overlay worked for you. Haruo looks 20% cooler.
I was totally going to snag that overlay during my hunt for Asian cc - I probably still should for safe keeping in case the site goes down - but I've noticed that certain custom skins will already give the monolid look, like KB's Iced Starfruit Epicanthic skin. 👍
But yeah, I guess the nice thing about the overlay is that you can use it with any skin you want. (I'm just now remembering you were having issues with some of the cc skins so my bad. )
I'm happy for you! And yay to Emily4331 for pointing you towards the perfect cc to get the perfect look.
I've been playing one of my favorite family's the Enriquez/Keaton fam. They have four kids currently!! Kristopher, Mallory, Kristy, and Vanessa (who they adopted ). I've been thinking of having them adopt one more kid, but they kinda have their hands full lol
Update: I made them adopt one more kid lol His name Is Camden. Now they REALLY have their hands full haha!
Kristopher became a teen. It's crazy, he looks exactly like his dad!
Kristopher:
Brooks: (His dad)
Identical right?
Anyway, next Mallory will be a teen. Oh boy! Two teens in the house Their going to be very busy raising these kids
Secondly, I am not sure how this managed to happen. It is THEIR kid... EA Genetics strikes again.
Jamie Jolina: "As the Watcher is my witness...I never knew that a Sim's blood sample could explode..."
Tourist: "Muraqib Akbar, I hope she is alright... I have never seen blood do that. The things I learn when I'm on a hospital learning tour in Sunset Valley. Maybe I should talk to my trainer in Al Simhara and warn him about this."

@emorrill The GrueSim CC I got the feet from was a pair of sandals. To my knowledge, they don't have default replacement child feet. But when I'm at my computer later, I'll look into it for ya.
Saturday Afternoon at the Park.
Bree plays ball with Adriana
Haruo enjoys a relaxing afternoon with River...
What's a summer afternoon without a "makeout session".
Mom and Dad fish while Chris decides he's going to "toss the football" with Arlo Bunch.
Always "River McIrish" ...and maybe some Bebe Hart. ~innocent expression~
I hope to be able to focus more on sims 3 during the weekend, the Disney game is light
and no need to focus much on it cause I play it to not think of the coughing haha
3 weeks is nothing, I have had a cold for 8 weeks once, but I hope not now
don't have the time for it.
@tanezumi - That was probably the repo-man, did you pay your taxes at your mailbox? Taxes come Monday and Thursday.
River harvesting the limes in the park; hoping her husband can start making some key lime pie eventually. Haruo's not going to be at that level for a while yet.
Saturday afternoon fishing - Haruo managed to get to Level 5 in fishing.
Saturday night into Sunday morning...
River, Adriana and Chris having their morning breakfast; Bree's still upstairs asleep. Haruo got about two bites of his Breakfast Calzone in...before being interrupted by a phone-call...
...and Haruo would LIKE to eat breakfast but he's being kept on the phone by Troy who evidently wanted to chat.
@emorrill - yeah, I'm playing my game with minimal cc. I just put in Seasons, bc I can't not have snow...and hopefully, I'll see if four seasons drives my computer insane. I'm using mostly EA hair for my other sims. River has the only cc hair (Nightcrawler Da Bomb). Everybody else has EA hair including Haruo.
...and no... tag didn't get through. I have to scroll through your post and see if you tagged me or not.

@Emily4331 ^Oh I already have Bloom's feet for children and toddlers. Thank you though.
I was just wondering if Gruesim created better "realistic feet" default replacements (for all ages) because there's some flaws with Blooms imo. But they are very small flaws so it's not a big deal. Buuuut, if I can find better, I will. 👍
^8 weeks!? Daaaaang girl... that's just miserable!
That wasn't possibly pneumonia back then was it? (I'm no medical expert. ) Is it easy to get in and see a Doc over there? Or not so much?
Hope you feel completely better soon.
Yeah, probably was a few years ago hehe.
not easy to see them here, and they only just give you stronger cough
drops, so I rather use my own cures for the cold and save money that way.
Here is some of the latest pics of the Enriquez/Keaton fam!
Mallory and Kristy playing dolls together
Kristopher playing with his little brother Camden.
Eleri making breakfast for her five children!
Vanessa playing with dolls.... well, eating them...
Picture of Brooks after coming home from a long day of work at the Hospital.
Uh oh. Kristopher is already having arguments with his mom. *sigh*
Kristopher hanging with his cousin, Regan (Nina's daughter).
I love this little photo of Camden playing with his blocks
I wanted to share with you guys that I allowed a child to keep their imaginary friend for the first time ever, and it aged up properly! (I have mentioned here before, how creepy I thought those dolls were!) I think I'm warming up to the imaginary friends now!
I was thinking about getting that smooth patch thing everyone has been talking about for over a year, but it kept sounding super stressful with needing a custom launcher (?) and now with the new EA App coming, I read Emily was saying that patch required her to launch the game differently once she switched to the EA App and now I'm even more scared to do it lol.
My game has been running so well I almost didn't see the point in getting the patch for a while until I read them say that the most noticeable improvements were in CAS loading times, and for me with all my CC clothing, my CAS loading times honestly are now pretty much the only thing I have a problem with on this computer. If the patch could really improve that, I would love it. I just feel a bit intimidated, and especially with the new app soon to replace Origin
I probably will just make another backup (though I already made one fairly recently) and then I'll probably try either the patch or the app out! (Maybe I should try the app first since it will be mandatory soon )
I was also working on a recreation of a nursery/garden center in my town for the world I was putting together, and I split it into four lots since we have open world, and I made three of them seasonal, and I was working on adding autumn and winter decor. I am not ready to share screenshots of that yet though
I play Sims 2, Sims 3, Sims 4, and The Urbz: Sims in the City on gamecube and ds. Main Game: Sims 3
@emorrill Ohhhhh whoops. lol I might be able to do something like that in the future but in the meantime, I'll let you know if I see any fancy feet out here.
Mallory aged up into a teenager yesterday! She developed the Technophobe trait.
I think she looks a lot like Eleri.
Then, shortly after, Vanessa aged into a kid!
Vanessa developed the Rebellious trait. I wasn't really expecting her to get that trait! I feel like she is going to cause a lot of... trouble!
I have updated my Generations of Forsythes blog post as well as the Forsythe Family Tree on Family Echo (link in my signature). My Forsythe Legacy Family Challenge has taken an unexpected turn, so stay tuned to find out what happens next.
