Face painting used to be reserved solely for festivities and celebrations.
Now it’s not uncommon to see people walking around with painted-on freckles, graphic blush, or cute face decals! I think a combination of normalizing everyday makeup use – plus the introduction of the e-girl into modern culture – is what caused this shift.
Either way, I don’t think anyone’s complaining.
Let’s add some hand-painted fun to your Sims’ looks with these custom face paints!
This is another cosmetic item categorized as “Blush”, so sorry for sending you all over CAS.
But this face paint is so pretty! I’m definitely not qualified to talk about how important and significant the bindi is, so I’m going to keep this short.
There are fifteen design options in total and they all look stunning.
This face paint design is very sharp and segmented. It kind of looks like a butterfly, especially with the extra “wings” at the outer corners of the eyes.
This one’s in the “Eyeshadow” category, which means you can enhance the look with some eyeliner or another custom face paint design.
It isn’t uncommon for Pralinesims to do massive sets with dozens of options in each set.
Don’t get me started on their custom eyes and custom lipstick sets, because this Dot Face Paint N57 set already contains 100 design versions with 20 placement options.
And each design can come in an additional five colors.
I don’t know how to properly math this madness. All I know is, this set is absolutely worth downloading.
This custom face paint only has one variation, and it only comes in one color.
But it’s so cute and pretty, I had to include it.
Even if you’re not building some sort of fantasy narrative in your game, this fun, sunshine-y cosmetic option is still great to have in your CAS arsenal.
I have no idea how many times I’ve recommended this particular facepaint set by Valhallan, but I can’t help it.
War paint speaks to me on a spiritual level, and the patterns in this set are so bad-ass. But despite it being paint, these recolors can – for some reason – be found in “Blush”.
Don’t worry; they’re totally worth clicking a couple categories over.
You can never have too much starry, sparkly blush.
And this is tagged as “Facepaint”, so don’t worry.
Like the creator’s Pridedust Facepaint CC, this cosmetic item comes in a sizable number of color options. Specifically 28 pastel colors from the creator’s own palette and 36 swatches from WDWEHT’s V3 Disney Palette for a whopping 64 color options.
I know clown makeup isn’t supposed to look aesthetic or attractive, but who says we can’t bend the rules a little?
Certainly not Serawis!
Their custom overhaul for EA’s default clown facepaint turns the makeup from crude and cartoonish to colorfully artistic.
I don’t know if it’s how softly the colors are blended or if it’s how everything just sits on the face better, but the visuals of this overhaul are quite mesmerizing!
16. Queen Lagertha Facepaint by Magnolian Farewell
Based on the bold, beautiful, and utterly bad-ass Queen Lagertha from Vikings, this face paint set adds just a couple swipes of color on your Sim’s face.
But because it’s modeled after such a powerhouse of a woman, they can add so much to your Sim’s presence.
By the way, the main download link is broken, but the second one (labeled with “no adfly”) works just fine.
These cheek flowers were an unexpected find that I ended up liking a lot more than I initially thought. Like peachiiesims Pridedust and Stardust facepaints, these flowers look like colorful freckles!
Get them in two variations, with ten colors each: lily or daisy.
I think the quick horizontal swipes are a simple but bold statement, and I’m certain a handful of Simmers will find this particular facepaint relevant.
