Genius. I basically got this mod only for Adrianne because her makeup looks way over the top especially after switching to BnP skin. She looks SO much better now for someone supposedly working in a forge all day. Thanks! Endorsed.
Hi. I would need to ask for permission to mod Serenaholic. Though, even if I did get it, I don't have much time to mod games anymore. Sorry... it's kinda easy to do and I've explained how I did it in other posts, so maybe someone else can take up the task.
You're doing amazing work here. However, this is not my solution. I'm using Bijin Skin and want to remove the makeup, is there any chance you would consider adding this in the future? Maybe as a seperate mod?
Probably not. My incentive to mod comes mostly from my friends using them and nobody I know does. I thought about it last year, but nobody in my circle needs it. Sorry.
These non make up mods for Bijin are so much needed. Now those ladies are looking much more in place and more natural. Thnx for this. I tried also the one from Shiva for all NPC. I thought maybe it would work on the ones from Pan and Kallies. But sadly, no. Hope to see them patched someday. Non make up versions
I'm glad you like it. I should have the update of the other two up soon. I'm having trouble uploading mods to Nexus right now.
If you want to try doing it yourself, I believe paint.net is free and can open and save DDS files that Skyrim uses. The only thing is you wouldn't be able to share it with anyone (without permission).
What you can do if you feel comfortable in the Creation kit is installing the empty tintmasks in the Miscellaneous files on No Makeup FaceTints on Vanilla NPCs and then export new FaceTints for Pandorable's and Kallies' NPC mods.
Thnx for the advice Shiva and very sorry for the late reply. I have no idea on how to do this. I do not have so much experience with CK. Can i find a tutorial somewhere?
Sure. You'll want to extract and modify the facetint DDS file for the NPC. If I recall correctly, it should match their BaseID number. When you open it up, you'll see what looks like a napkin with an imprint of a clown's face.
The quick and dirty method is to use a color pick tool to get the average skintone on the forehead or neck areas and just create a new DDS file filled with that color. The end result will be a facetint with just the skin color and no makeup. While this method works, there's a probability that you may see a visible neck seam because of a slight color difference between the face and body.
To avoid the neck seam issue, you'll want to cut the makeup out in the center of the image. The idea is to leave the original edges in the texture file so it will blend with the body properly. Then you can fill the area you cut with the average color and blend the cut edges with the original skin texture. This isn't my expertise, but I think I used GIMP to created a layer mask and used a gradient tool for the blending - I followed a tutorial on youtube. Although, for the last version of the mod, I shelled out for Photoshop and used the content aware tool, which was much easier.
Thank you very much for this amazing mod. Would it be possible to add make-up removers to the rest of the Bijin folks like Serana/Valerica, Toccata and Chaconne? That would be really awesome.
I can probably do that, but I've been extremely sick for the past few months and it's hard to get anything done. In fact, I have 3 other mods near completion that are sitting on the back burner. When I get better, I'll add it to my list of things to do. I'm glad you enjoy the mod.

Any chance of just a Karliah warpaint remover?Thanks in advance.
Could you also do this for Pan's mods and Kallies mod's?
I want to be your friend.

i use Muscular Women, and having a 300 pound boulder of a bandit charge screaming at you with drag queen makeup is more than a little intimidating

I hope that helps you.
haha gross
i'm assuming that's called a tint mask? i remember a mod called high res tint masks and it looked like the above description.
either way, that was VERY helpful, thank you!
