Potion of youth not working

I thought the same but was mistaken. The potion only resets your sim to the beginning of its current age.

The potion only works on the life state your Sim is currently in. If you wait till your Sim becomes an elder, they're simply reduced back to Day 1 of the Elder stage. You needed to use the potion during their Adult stage to revert it back to Day 1 of Adult.

I had 28 days before becoming an elder. I purchased the potion of youth. I now have 26 days before becoming an elder. Am I doing something wrong?



I also tried the other potions and none seem to modify my mood. I am playing on the long mode.



Please advise.

Had your Sim just had a birthday? If you take it at the beginning of the life stage, it really doesn't change anything because you're already at the beginning. The benefit is when you're, say, just a few days from becoming an elder and then take it; it takes you back to the beginning of the adult life stage.

Edit: And yeah, be sure you actually drink it.

In my game it's working perfectly.

Works fine in mine, used one just today. Do you have mods installed?

Potato/Potatoe! ;)

i became an old person (my hairs are white now) i have used it my appereance has not changed but i have realised that she was alive longer. so as some friends said before, maybe it is only resetting the time in current age. if its not like this (please confirm that it has worked for you and changed the appereance also) confirm it

this happened to my sim also but i though it was cause he was a npc sim

same.. this seems to be bugged :(

Look at the days the sim has been an elder. That's all that resets. Your sim won't go back to YA.

Your just old forever.
