Lighting Overlay 2.0
Lighting Overlay 2.0 is an overlay to create fake shadow on your sims to sort of simulate a more realistic lighting in The Sims 4! I made this overlay CC to improve your screenshots aesthetics, not for gameplay, CAS genetics, etc!
This version is basically a standalone updated version of the first Lighting Overlay. Compared to the first version, it's softer, darker, and blends better. This version also only affects face, neck, a little bit of chest area, and won't affects outfits!. So, it'll be compatible maxis match and alpha outfits!
Two versions available: True Black Version and Color Version

TRUE BLACK VERSION
This version can be found in Skin Details, Makeup, Tattoos, and Brow Ring (left) categories! This version, however, is not makeup sliders compatible.
Preview of all the swatches!
The last two swatches are meant to be leaves on trees shadow. If you guys like shadows like that, I might consider making another lighting overlay just for that!
Below is a preview on various skin tones. Unlike the first version, the version 2.0 still look good on the darkest skin tone!
COLOR VERSION
This version can only be found in Makeup category! It's makeup sliders compatible!
By default, the color of the shadow in the color version is blue/purple-ish. You can use the hue slider to change it into any color!
I highly recommend using the makeup sliders to reduce the white edges by maxing the saturation slider and lowering the brightness slider

Lighting Overlay CC
I made this lighting overlay to create fake shadow on your sims to simulate more realistic lighting in The Sims 4! It's good to make your screenshots look more realistic and dramatic!
What and how does this CC works?
This overlay can be found in multiple categories like Skin Details, Makeup, and Tattoos! It adds fake but still realistic shadow to your sims. This overlay will not conflict with any other CC/mods since it's just cosmetics, not a real lighting mods or something like that! I highly recommend using this only when taking pictures of your sims!
This overlay affects the whole body and outfits! (except the last 2 setups that only affects head and neck area)
For all frames
Basegame compatible
15 different lighting setups, each with 5 different opacity!
For infant to elder

Found in Skin Details, Makeup, Tattoos, and Brow Ring (left)!
Compatible with hue, saturation, lightness sliders! (Makeup category only)

The Ring-A-Date Perpetual Calendar was designed by Giorgio Della Beffa in Italy in the 1970s and produced by Euroway in Turin. It's a classic design and an important part of the Italian plastic designs that were created in the 60s and 70s and took over the world in these decades within interior design.
