‌

  • Shows makeup/nails of the first everyday outfit when naked.
    • Makeup/nails also appear when in robe or towel
    • No change if you try to edit/create a new everyday outfit without makeup/nails after creating the sim
  • Affects post-update created sims, not old households.
    • also affects everyone, if you start a new save

Workaround:

  • When creating new sim, make two copies of the everyday outfit: the first one without makeup/nails and the second one with them included
  • Once in live mode, go to CAS and remove the first outfit

Also, doesn't affect nails got from pedi- and manicure, because you can always remove them.

EDIT: Updated game version and added recently bought University EP. No change, the bug still occurs in my game.

EDIT: I have tested, and the bug occurs also in base game. After reinstalling the whole game, sims still wear makeup/nails when naked.

    Why would they "take off" their nails when nude though? Regarding makeup I think it totally depends on the situation, for example if they're going to have a shower I would expect that they would take off the makeup or have the makeup they potentially have with their swimwear, but if they're for example streaking I would expect them to still wear their everyday makeup.

    @SqueamishNerdwow, someone actually replied. So do you have this bug too?

    And like you, I'm fine with nails showing but having makeup in bath, in a sauna or in the spa, for example, doesn't make sense to me. I just wanted to highlight that makeup showing while in nude/towel/robe is connected to the Spa Day update and nails.

    If you get a manicure at the spa, it overwrites the nails you include in all the outfits in CAS, until you want to take the nails off. I think it's connected to that

    I had a look in my game, and it seems like sims take off their nails but keep their makeup when getting nude.

    Example pictures. First picture is a sim in her everyday outfit, she has makeup and nails. Nails were added in CAS. In the second picture she has taken off her clothes, and she kept her makeup but removed her nails.

    I tested if it differed depending on which outfit she had before getting nude, but she always change into the everyday makeup when getting nude, at least for taking baths and showers.

    From the future here... Sadly the issue is still very much alive. It is very frustrating. I know that adult mod for a time auto-fixed the issue as its system changed how the sims got nude. However, it doesn't work the same way anymore. I hope it gets sorted out soon.
