- Lynariela13 years agoSeasoned AdventurerSimilar to how there is a "lock" for hair that you can unlock and set different hairstyles for different outfits, they patched in a feature that allows you to do the same for makeup. Have you ensured that the lock is "locked?" Also, the makeup you're using, is it 3rd-party or EA-created? Sometimes 3rd-party created items will not be unlocked for certain outfits and even with the 'lock' on, cannot be worn in, say, pajamas.
If this is really just a bug and it's not one of the aforementioned possibilities, please let me know. Just good to cover all the initial bases first. :) - MiyuEmi13 years agoSeasoned AceMaybe not, but check and make sure also that it's not just changing based on their career outfit. I use little to no makeup on my sims but my sim looked like a street walker when she first geared up to work (Art Appraiser). If it's just the career makeup, it should change and then stay if you use the mirror option to change appearance while they're wearing their career outfit.

No it's all of them. I'll correct all of them and right after I do if I change her outfit they have all changed again - I know it's been a while since this problem was posted but now I'm having this issue too. I'm in CAS and everytime I switch to a different outfit, like say from everyday to formal, the eyeshadow goes from the way I want it to the one that comes with supernatural. So I fix it and then click back on everyday and back to formal and it's back to the supernatural eyeshadow again. I have it locked so that all outfits have the same makeup and I don't have any cc. its not just outfit changes, it's whenever the clothes change, like if I go to tattoo mode the eyeshadow changes too. It's definitely some kind of bug. Hoping I don't have to uninstall supernatural.
- I have this exact same problem! I do my sims make up really nice and normal and halfway through playing it will suddenly change so she has a lightening bolt or batman face! Really irritating!
- I have the same problem.. Has anyone found a solution yet?

This post has not been replied for a while but I have the exact same problem. I'll try to find a solution, but surely the Supernatural and Ambitions eye shadows are bugged. Don't use them.
EDIT: Sorry for editing twice but I have a solution. Not using Ambitions and Supernatural eyeshadows fixes the problem of the lock and the changing.
I have this problem too, but I've just learned not to use world adventures and ambitions makeup.- I know it's been a while since this was posted, but I was having the same issue. I noticed when I used a different eyeshadow, it stopped doing it. Hope this helps someone!
- Meela_Pasht9 years agoRising VanguardI don't know if this will help but when you are creating your Sim and you get to the make-up part, you have to 'unlock' that lock in the top right corner; then make the necessary adjustment; then 'lock' the lock back once you're completed. Do not leave that section until you lock it back. The make-up should then remain the same for each outfit. I hope this helps.
