Default We can now adjust the opacity of makeup
I thought I'd mention this because a lot of people don't know. The strategy guide mentions one of the new cas features lets us now adjust the opacity of makeup. It uses eyeshadow for example and says you can now lighten it or make it darker. Just another cool feature we'll be getting in this game.

Wonder how this will affect all the custom makeup out there. Sounds like a very cool feature though.

This is something I'd really like to have. I always seem to have trouble making lighter makeup.

I once thought i was sad because I had no shoes, then I saw a man with no feet.

So you've used it? Can you adjust the opacity of lipstick as well?

Yes, you can. You can change it for eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush and lipstick. I've found it VERY useful, it's a great new feature.

I just don't understand why we can make makeup or tattoos be completely transparent. Why even have the tat or makeup if it's totally invisible? But I do like being able to make them darker or a little lighter so they look faded

By adjusting the opacity, you can make it as fade or as dark as you like. Of course none would make a completely transparent makeup or tattoos, thats just stupid.

@emino not really. When your sim wants a tattoo and you don't want too see your sim wearing one, make it transparent. (:

It's one of the best new features--it's so much easier to make natural looking lips without fiddling with all the colors.

Now our boys and men can sport some rosey cheeks and lipbalm without looking like drag-queens ingame. YAY.

^My thoughts exactly. My males where so plain-faced and most of my females didn't wear blush cause of the opacity of the makeup. It's just too dark the old way.

If anyone is here, how do you get the opacity slider? I don't see mine and most of my makeup and tattoos are very light like barely there. I want my tattoos to show up.

It's a slider. Do you have this?

Still waiting for TS4 to get this feature. The makeup is a bitch right now, and I rely a lot on makeup. Even the Sims of mine that supposedly don't use makeup, do. I just need it to make them look real.
