Please do not ask for me to upload any of the Ryders in my screens.
I have a personal Ryder and one game going where I constantly face swap to test mods/take screens and I'm constantly overwriting them as they are just
throwaways and I don't keep them. I recommend browsing for Ryders on the Nexus or the offical Mass Effect Andromeda Archives if you are unable to make your own for whatever reason.
Thanks for understanding!

YOU CAN APPLY ANY OF THESE COMPLEXIONS TO ANY PRESET OF ANY SKIN COLOUR EXCEPT DEFAULT SARA RYDER.
USE THE COMPLEXION SLIDER IN THE CHARACTER CREATION SCREEN/FACIAL RECONSTRUCTION SUITE IN THE MEDBAY TO CHANGE YOUR RYDER'S COMPLEXION :)
Eyebrows from some complexions can look good on some presets, and bad on others.
I can't change the headmorphs at the moment, so you're just gonna have to fiddle with presets/brow height to get something acceptable (it is mostly default preset 7 and 9 that have a problem with the brows, but you can see that complexion 4's brows are still a bit weird on my modified preset 8).
This is going to be a place for me to post all of my complexion replacers. They are all going to be unique - with different styles of brows, makeup/no makeup, markings, etc.
I'd just like to say - some of the complexions (especially Amy and Ana) will have makeup that some of you consider too 'heavy'.
I will be uploading the complexions individually, so you can pick and choose which ones you like.
I'm a qualified makeup artist and beauty therapist in real life, and I wear a lot of makeup.
I also like to have my characters wearing a lot of makeup too.
That being said, not all of the complexions are going to have lots of makeup or even any makeup in them at all.
If they aren't to your liking, I ask that you please just kindly move on from the file as no one is forcing you to download it.
I'm not open to 'constructive criticism' - this is my mod and it will be how I want it.
I am not currently taking requests.
If you want something completely different, please utilise the Andromeda forums!
Thanks for understanding :)
You can track this file for updates, or you can follow my game mods blog on tumblr where I will be posting every time I upload something.
(V1 SCREENS)
I HAVE LABELLED ALL SCREENS WITH THEIR APPROPRIATE NAMES
I've also included screens of how the complexions look:
- On the corresponding default preset/with no makeup
(how the complexion looks on it's own with no makeup applied in the CC)
- With light makeup (applied in game CC not, included in complexion)
- With heavy makeup (applied in game CC, not included in complexion)
- On a different preset (some complexions)
(V2 SCREENS - SINGLE SCREENS)
I HAVE LABELLED ALL SCREENS WITH THEIR APPROPRIATE NAMES
In the new single images, all complexions are shown without makeup applied in the CC.
I have used the exact same preset to model them to show you how different they can make your character look.
- JAYDE/DEFAULT SARA RYDER -
features refined face tweaks, tidier and more shapely brows. Replaces complexion 0 (default Sara Ryder's complexion).
- JAYDE/DEFAULT SARA RYDER - - V2
Huge improvement to the first version. I recommend using this instead of V1.
features refined face tweaks, tidier and more shapely brows. Replaces complexion 0 (default Sara Ryder's complexion).
- AMY -
features refined face tweaks, dark ombre brows, and winged eyeliner. Replaces complexion 1.
Preset 1 uses this as her default face texture.
- ANA -
features ombre cutout brows, ear tattoo, heavy eyeliner and other texture tweaks. Replaces complexion 2.
Preset 2 uses this as her default face texture.
- CORA -
** This does not replace Cora's complexion - this is complexion 4 which is the default complexion of Preset 9.
It is called Cora in the game files **
features minor face tweaks and lots of freckles. Replaces complexion 4.
- ANNIE -
features a complexion made from a mashup of Cora's complexion, other preset's complexions, and my own tweaks.
Replaces complexion 10. Preset 10 (the red and freckled one) uses this complexion.
I have also included a body texture to match the face.
- BIFTU -
This complexion was tricky to make fit to the default face, as the brows are shaped quite weirdly even with vanilla complexion. On very dark skin, the brows kind of go a bit of a blue colour - I am not sure why this is (possibly due to tinting issues??).
I have included pictures of the complexion on other presets/brow bone shapes so you can see that the eyebrows are actually straight and it seems to be preset 7's head morph that makes them a little off.
I don't want to whitewash my mods, but after around 10 edits of trying to get the eyebrows sit right, I'd recommend not using this complexion on it's default preset (7). My other complexions work better on the darkest skin slider, however!
Default Sara and Preset 9's complexion also had a similar issue with the eyebrow bones.
Alternatively, you can use a hairstyle that covers her right eyebrow.
- EMILY -
Bushy but manicured brows with a colour corrected face texture.
Replaces complexion 6. Default preset 3 uses this as her default face texture.
- EMILY WITH DARK BROWS -
Exactly the same as above, but the brows are much darker in colour.
- SUSAN -
A streamlined retexture with a few small moles/large freckles.
Brows have been manicured and thickened slightly and are a medium brown colour.
Replaces complexion 9. Default preset 4 uses this as her default texture.
- SUSAN WITH DARK BROWS -
Same as Susan Complexion, but with very dark eyebrows.
- DESIREE -
A lightly freckled and colour corrected texture. Eyebrows are thicker and shapelier.
Replaces complexion 5. Default preset 6 uses this as her default texture.
- MARIAH -
Smoothed out and colour corrected texture. Countouring and thicker brows.
Replaces complexion 7. Default preset 5 uses this as her default texture.
- RAYLENE -
Bushy but manicured brows. Freckles and a smoothed out texture.
Preset 8 uses this as her default face texture.
Replaces complexion 8.
- ANA - ALTERNATE -
Replaces complexion 2. Default preset 2 uses this complexion.
This is a direct texture port of my Addison V2 Retexture - I have just smoothed out the wrinkles to make
it more suitable for a young Ryder.
- BELLE -
Inspired by the beautiful Belle Lucia. Thick brows, clear skin, and a beauty mark.
Replaces complexion 10.
- BELLE WITH DARK BROWS -
Exactly the same as Belle but with dark eyebrows better suited to black/blonde hair.
Replaces complexion 10.

Even though the brows are even on the texture map, the left brow (left if you're looking at it, right brow on character)
is slightly raised/dented on the character model mesh. I tried experimenting by moving the brows up, but they didn't look any better, so I just left them as even on the texture map.
I believe this issue is most noticeable on the default Sara Ryder preset, Preset 7, and Preset 9. .
