Acne has been sorely missing from The Sims 3, so I’ve created this mod to add an acne system to the game! I recently hit 2,000 followers on this blog, so please consider this a follower gift and a thank you for supporting me 💙💙💙
Thank you to @misspats3 for helping me with the lovely cover photo!
In order for the face acne to show up, please download Around The Sims 3′s converted acne face overlay here called “ATS3-makeup-TU-acnee-sims4”.
Around The Sims 3 has allowed me to add a modified package file of the acne face overlay to properly enable Adult acne. The package is now included in the zip file with the mod.
(Thank you for allowing me to use your cc @aroundthesims!)
Sims aged Teen to Adult will have a random chance of getting the new custom Acne Breakout moodlet that applies face acne at 6:00am every day.
By default Teens have a 20% base chance, Young Adults have a 10% base chance, and Adults have a 5% base chance.
Certain traits can also increase or decrease the chance of a sim getting acne by 5%.
Increased Chance Traits - Slob and Unlucky
Decreased Chance Traits - Neat and Lucky
Pregnant Young Adult and Adult sims have their chance of acne increased by 5%.
Sims will also get the Embarrassed moodlet, unless they have the Brave, Inappropriate, Insane, or Rebellious trait.
Sims with the Diva or Dramatic trait will take a larger hit to their mood when the Acne Breakout moodlet is active (-30 instead of -20).
Werewolves, Witches, Fairies, Genies, and Mermaids are half as likely to get acne as humans (Teens 10%, Young Adults 5%, and Adults 1%).
Vampires and Plant Sims have no chance of getting acne (vamps because they’re technically dead and plant sims because they’re… you know, plants). Pregnant sims of these occult types do not have their chance of acne increased.
All of these percentages are tunable in the XML file.
- [New] Apply Acne Toner: An interaction at the sink that only appears when a sim has acne, gives sims the custom Feeling Fresh moodlet and reduces the Acne Breakout moodlet by 4 hours. This interaction can only be used once every 6 hours.
- [Additional Feature] Gussy Up: Using the Gussy Up interaction on a mirror has a 5% chance of removing a sim’s acne.

Acne Breakout: Given when sims get acne, lasts 24 hours, -20 mood
Feeling Fresh: Given when sims use the Apply Acne Toner interaction, lasts 6 hours, +10 mood
I wanted to make this mod as flexible as possible, so there are quite a few tunable values listed on the mod page under the spoiler.
This is a new script mod so there shouldn’t be any conflicts.

Additional thank yous to Gamefreak130, Battery, @flotheory, @zoeoe-sims, TheSweetSimmer, and olomaya for helping to make this mod all that it could be!

u ever get sad for younger u
like someone shoulda helped u bby
u didn’t deserve it
!!!
Me af
fascism looks like asking elderly & disabled individuals to turn their air conditioning off and die while your HOA/county also bans putting solar panels on your roof because “what if it’s ugly”
it’s also: telling people to evacuate their homes in a natural disaster and not offering them any method to leave whatsoever
71% of people who died in Hurricane Katrina were over the age of 60 or disabled
climate change will kill disabled people and the most vulnerable first. it already has. the fucking White House itself even admits they utterly failed disabled/elderly people in 2005
Waking up to headlines like this broke me. This is our worst nightmare happening to Hawaiians in real time
