CC Finds – Masculine CAS CC – Part 1

Hey all, It is Jezi, and for this CC Finds, we will be looking at Masculine CAS CC.  There is so much Masculine CAS CC here at TSR that we will break this down into parts.  Today, we will look at skin details, overlays, eyebrows, and makeup.   All these elements, in my mind, really add the finishing touches to your Sims.  So many times, I have caught even myself not giving my male Sims not enough attention in the designing process.  So, this listing here is to help you find CC for your masculine-styled Sims.

Skin Details

Using skin details is a great way to get unique Sims.  I feel as if I do not use skin details on my Sims, they are just unfinished.  Most of my Sims have at least eyebags, contour, and a skin overlay.  That being said, you can do more; the more you do, the more unique your Sims become.

Face Details

We are going to start with face details.  There are many different types here at TSR, from contours to eyelids to eye bags and even more.  You can create your unique Sim using details like this, turning your base game Sims into something much more!

Body Details

Creating your dream Sim does not stop with just the face. You can also download details for your Sims’ bodies, like more body hair.  I think the body hair CC looks a bit more realistic, and if you are looking for more realism, CC is the way to go!

Skin Overlays

With CC, you have Skin Details and Skin Overlays. Both can be found in the same Skin Details tab but are very different.  Skin Details are specific elements: contour, eye bags, nose mask… etc.  Skin Overlays are an entire overlay that covers the Sim fully.  So, if you are looking for a faster way to create Sims with lots of details, Skin Overlays are a perfect way to do it!

Face Overlays

Another super quick way to create a Sim is to download face overlays.  If you are trying to make a specific look for a Sim, character, or celebrity style, face overlays are the quickest way to achieve it!  You just download it and pop the face overlay on, and POOF done!

CAS Presets

CAS presets are another quick way to get your Sim out of base game mode.  You can either alter the preset after or just keep it as designed, all your choice!

Body Presets

I use a lot of body presets for my Sims.  It makes it so much easier to make Sims unique.  Of course, if you use the same body preset, they will all look the same; however… It’s your game, so you do you.

Nose Presets

I struggle with adjusting noses, so I have loads of presets downloaded!  Again, it speeds my CAS process up and allows me to design a Sim how I want to, without the struggle.

Mouth Presets

These presets are much better than the base game ones. For lips, they generally have more natural shapes, and I personally like that.

Other Presets

There are loads of presets at TSR, Not just bodies, lips, and noses.  You can download all sorts of things for your Sims.  If you want to make an Elf Sim, no problem; download some Elf Ears!

Eyebrows

We all know how I feel about the base game eyebrows, so we won’t go there.  There are loads of eyebrows to download here at TSR: alpha, maxis match, and maxis mix.  I generally like the more realistic but clean eyebrows, but I am picky.  However, if you want more fluff to your eyebrows, you can have that too!

Eyelashes

3-D eyelashes are a great addition to your Masculine CAS CC.  These eyelashes are generally in the glasses category, so they are an easy free slot unless you already have sunglasses planned for your Sim.

Makeup

Yes, I generally have makeup on my masculine-styled Sims.  I feel this just finishes off the Sim’s look.  Even with just a bit of contour to make their faces look more realistically shaped or lip gloss to add a bit of shine, it is worth downloading more CC!

Lip gloss

One thing I do with every masculine-styled Sim is to put light lip gloss on them.  In my opinion, the base game lip shades are not entirely realistic or match the color or saturation of what lips should look like.  So, I always add lip gloss even if I don’t want anything visible to add that extra element of realism and shade correction.

Eyeshadow

You cannot limit what you can do with CC found on TSR.  My goal is to highlight and show you just a sample of what is available here so that you can create whatever type of Sim you can dream up.  The variety of CC really allows for the creation of anything.  Like Vampires… Mermaids… Wizards, Overworked Ranchers… We got that, too, with that No Sleep Eyeshadow, LOL.

Blush

Make-up and Skin Details depend on whether I use a Skin Overlay for Masculine Sims.  I have a few go-to overlays with a lot of shading and highlights, and I don’t do much besides eyebrows, lip gloss, and eyelashes.  However, if I do not use a Skin Overlay, I will use blush and generally double-layer contour, one in the blush category and one in the Skin Details.  Again, this gives your Sim some natural highlights and shadows, a more realistic and complete look.

Eyeliner

Eyeliner is also quite typical for me to use on masculine-styled Sims.  Even if it is just a light eyeliner or turned-down opacity, I feel it helps bring out the eyes, giving the Sims a more unique, not base game look.  I also have noticed eyeliner makes 3D lashes look more realistic.  Just as you would put eyeliner on with false lashes, right?

Eyes

The eyes at TSR are incredible.  There is such a selection of all types and colors.  I picked just three with natural tones and designs, but I am a sucker for eyes with that hint of light reflecting in an excellent highlight showing the difference in color in the look.

Summary

As you can see, there are many options for Masculine CAS CC!  We only looked at skin details, overlays, makeup, eyes, and eyebrows! Again, I aim to highlight some of the CC at TSR to help you achieve your Sim creation goals.  There is so much here to create, inspiring me to make more Sims!  I hope you have found this blog helpful and download lots of fabulous CC for your Sims.
