More Skin Details! Please!

FreakAboutSims

This is really needed since there is a serious lack of skin details in this game. Skin details help to give each character their own distinctive look and when you start using the same ol' freckles eventually you run back into the problem of everybody looking exactly the same. Please, in a patch, or an update, or a pack, please give us some more skin details!

Most of the custom content ones aren't even Maxis Match so they look ugly and gross with the overall asethetics of the game. We need some EA made ones.

Magdaleena

Hm, yeah, I was about to suggest custom content, and there IS maxis-match skin details out there!

But having some more official content in that category sounds good too.

Dannydanbo

I hope we get warts with witches.

Chazzzy

Let’s see, we’ve got freckles, moles, beauty marks, scars, frown lines...

What more do you want?

SimAlexandria

I just wish that freckles could be passed down genetically haha

Dannydanbo

Don't forget, we've got acne too.

To your point, yes, we do have quite a bit of options. But really take a look at them. We have two styles of freckles (and only on the face, which isn't really believable tbh), two beauty marks, and a ton of movie FX makeup scars. The scars in particular are quite dramatic, suitable almost exclusively in a dramatic actor role; Or perhaps if your Sim's backstory involves getting such a deep and visible scar on their face. But scars that are more subtle would be a wonderful addition. Vitiligo marks would also be amazing and would add so much character to a Sim's face/body!

I have a few freckles across my cheeks and nose, a beauty mark on the tip of my nose, and a moles under lip, on my chin, and next to my eye. I have a scar on my nose but it's probably half a centimeter in length and it's just a few shades darker than my skintone. I also have a deeper, less visible scar on my forehead in line with the middle of my eyebrows. I DON'T have any scars that look like I got attacked by a large animal and survived. My freckles aren't as apparent as the ones given to us in game. I have acne scars on my face and bags under my eyes but nothing as dramatic as we have as options currently.

I think if a player doesn't use skin details often, yes, we have plenty of them. But for those who love to add a variety of skin details, there's not enough. I also second the comment that it would be awesome for skin details to be genetic.

However, if it meant taking time away from other things that would be even better additions to the game, I can very easily live with what we've got at this moment.

I would like to see less exaggerated scars, more variety of freckles, and other details it's pretty lacking atm

MadameLee

using CC I have my current sim have a huge burn scar on her left cheek.

More variety would be great its kind of annoying how features like moles, beauty marks, scars and so on are just ignored when they should be expanded upon in new packs. I prefer seeing these given more options over another chair any day.

TopNotchToddler

If you exclude pimples, scars and moles, etc., this is where we are after four years:



This is where I want us to be:



There is only so much you can do with sliders. We really could do with more details.

I also think that more skin details are needed, and not just for face but for body as well!

Here are some that I think that would be good to have. (Many of them are already mentioned above, but wanted to make a small list)

For body and face:

- More mole, beauty mark and freckles options.
- Vitiligo or other pigmentation changes. few options with typical appearances for example.
- More scars. I like what we have now, but need some different kind of scars.

For face:

- Different dark circles under eyes, more natural ones I mean.
- More wrinkle options.
- Redness for nose, cheeks, chin or around eyes. (Some people have that kind of skin coloring for different reasons.)

For skin, eyes and hair:

- Would be nice to have option for heterochromia also. At least for eyes.

We need total-body freckles; a Sim having freckles on their face but literally nowhere else just looks stupid.

Yes! Whenever I make a Sim with freckles, I always forget to give them to the kids.

mika

Still waiting for freckles to be genetic.

LeGardePourpre

Sure and I also need a pale pink skin, the pale yellow skin is like a sick person.

Mariefoxprice83

I'd love more skin details, especially genetic freckles.

ea must think that people with beauty marks on other parts of their body other than their face don't exist... :(

List of details we don't have:

1.Eye bags
2.visible pores(we have acne give us some blackheads)
3.different swatches of freckles(some people have dark freckles some people have ginger freckles, some people have incredably light freckles) 4.one shade of freckles does not suit every skin tone.
5.wrinkles just above the eyes
6.wrinkles to the side of the eyes
7.wrinkles around the neck
8.sagging of the neck
9.dimples on the chin
10.dimples on the face
11.more than 2 moles (I REPEAT 2 MOLES BECAUSE THAT'S JUST SO MUCH VARIETY!!)
12.creasing around the bottom of the mouth
13.creasing around the eyebrows
14.realistic scars (as in scars that don't look like you've been attacked by a bear)
15. full body freckles and I'm not talking about giving us one single swatch (give us a variety of swatches with the freckles on different places on the body; give us multiple freckles, singular freckles, freckles in a concentrated area. it's impossible to accurately represent your sims and create diversity with the freckle options we've been given, ea is basically asking us to download custom content, we shouldn't need mods to give our sims diversity in a game that is about making and expressing diversity!!!)

Give us more skin details ea (•̀ ︵ •́)!!!!!!!!
