Description
Mama, am I pretty yet?

This mod adds makeup, as well as decisions to apply or remove it. You can attempt to make yourself uglier with makeup too, and applying always costs some money.

Each level of makeup is analagous to a level of the beauty/ugly traits.
They give the same attraction opinion and affect your fertility by half as much ("beauty traits increase fertility because more frequent seggs or beautiful features often being natural fertility indicators? I do not know, so I split the difference").

They still affect your portrait. You can have hideous makeup at the same time as being naturally beautiful and so on.

Likely future features:
- Health risks of using makeup. Yeah fun fact a lot of the means by which medieval peeps attempted to match the beauty standards of their times were unhealthy or even outright dangerous.
- Cultural and religious attitudes towards makeup, including differing opinions dependent on whether a character is male or female.
- Tweaking of odds of getting different makeup traits based on your character's traits and stats. Possibly a trait specifically related to how good you are with makeup.
- Asking to do makeup for other characters or requesting them do it for you, with the odds of them accepting or declining depending on their traits*, opinion of you and relation to you.

*(which could be pretty interesting. A zealot of a religion that says makeup is cringe for their gender is obviously gonna be opposed to it, but one of a religion saying it's based will love it. Maybe a new trait just for whether or not a character likes the idea of wearing makeup, and then having the brave trait at the same time as either increases their impact as someone who's brave is gonna be more willing to defy you by refusing to let you put any on them if they don't like makeup but more willing to accept if they like makeup even if their religion/culture say makeup is cringe. Paranoid peeps won't like anyone else touching them, whereas trusting peeps are more likely to be up for it)

My legitimately awful YouTube channel. As of writing I'm close to finished on the first serious video on the channel, and it's gonna be full of videos explaining my mods, how to mod for CK3 and stories I'm writing (the stories are the main focus of the channel, but there will probably be more CK3 modding vids just because of how much easier they are to make): https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCq2ULiT-uUkuIDXLY8JYxtA

It should give the same portrait changes as having beauty traits. If your character already has a beauty trait of the same level or higher than the makeup their portrait will be unchanged, although they'll still benefit from higher attraction opinion and fertility. Character gender doesn't make a difference.
If no portrait changes occur on characters without any of the normal beauty/ugliness traits when they have makeup traits then yeah I'll need to do a lil tweaking. In the meantime before I check and, if any fixes are needed, do a lil fixing I'm afraid it's imagination time.

Fair enough.

Yeah, but it's kinda stupid that the game does it with makeup since it's supposed to be congenital.

Doesn't the game already add makeup if you are "pretty"?
