🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since this mod is from 2013, make sure to check if your Skyrim version is compatible — if you're on Special Edition, you might need to convert the textures or find an updated port.
If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2, install this mod and let it overwrite any conflicting face textures — load order matters for textures, so place it after other body mods.
Try all three variants in-game to see which one fits your character's appearance best — you can switch between them by reinstalling and choosing a different file.

- Three variants give you options to tweak the look to your taste
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2013 — may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods
