*UPDATE* 8.17.14 - Surely someone has figured this out before me, but I just learned how to enable makeup for babies, meaning this set is now truly available for all ages. Please redownload if you are interested in these being enabled for babies. The files have the same names, so they should overwrite the old ones, assuming you didn't rename them.
To use these on babies, you will need a modded object that allows you to make changes to a baby's appearance. I use the Sim Blender by twojeffs.

Original Blurb
I've been finishing up small projects lately, and since this one is pretty fun to use, I thought I'd share it. What we have here is another DIY special effect kit, only this time it's focused on the eyes. What you'll find here are 3 sclera blushes, 4 inner iris tints, a pupil to go over those iris tints, 2 types of cataracts, 1 pair of corrective contact lenses, and 4 spotlights. The scleras, irises, and pupils are available for all ages and genders and found in the Blush bin. The others are found in Costume makeup, or as I prefer to call it, Full-Face makeup. Spotlights and cataracts are available for all ages and genders, whereas the contact lenses are only available for children and older. (Since I play Child Sims as being 5-12, I thought it'd be fine for them to use them too.)
Hit the purdy button if you like to read lots of blah, blah, blah. Go on, reading's good for you!
Sclera Galore
If you've seen my other uploads, you may have noticed that I like imperfect Sims. And layers. And multi-wearable layers. So when I was making a dark sclera blush, I thought, "Hey, none of these sclera look like my eyes. Them Sims need more allergies!" Thus, the birth of the bloodshot sclera. Perfect for Sims suffering from allergies, lack of sleep, stress, or too much "juice". These can't be worn together (why would they be, they're completely opaque), but they can be worn with all other blushes. As for the light sclera, that's just the same sclera you'd find on my Simply Eyes. Handy if you like collecting sclera blushes. We all have our hobbies.
Since you can't make out the full details of a sclera from a front view, I was feeling generous and snapped some shots of Sims pouring soap into a fountain.
Iris and Pupils, oh my!
There's nothing too special about the inner iris; just four basic colors to add some diveristy to your Sims' eyes. Assuming my brain cells aren't completely failing me, these also can NOT be worn together, as it just looked unnatural. Otherwise, they layer fine over other blushes, but be warned! You want to use a pupil with these, as they discolor the Sims' original pupils. You can use the one I provided or ones from others. I also use sugarandcaffeine's Eyekit FX, since those pupils work well over these irises.
Cataracts and Contacts for the Visually Impaired
NOTE: In case you were thinking these are modded somehow to make your Sims actually blind/impaired, think again. They're just simple special effects.
I've worn corrective contact lenses for, what, 15 years now? While it's fun to have Sims wear glasses, it kind of bugged me that I couldn't find any corrective lenses for them, since it is subtly noticeable. So, I made my own. It has a very light blue tint and makes the eyes look a little hazier, glassier even. These will not fit well over eyes with large irises, like Maxis eyes. They were intended for my Simply Eyes, but they fit nicely enough over other eyes with smaller irises.
As for the cataracts, those were a special request by Lastgale. They can be layered over each other to make an opaque film over the pupil. Like the contact lenses, these were made especially for my Simply Eyes, but again, you can use them over other eyes with small pupils. They fit nicely over my pupil effect, too.
In the Spotlight Now
Lastly, the spotlights. These were fun to do. I was a little disappointed with how my last bunch looked on very dark eyes. So that was enough incentive to make some more. These look glossier and softer than my others. And you can still layer them over each other (and over my last set) to make your own unique eyes. Unlike most of this set, these also look great on Maxis' original eyes, although I don't have a pic to prove it.
Wondering how these look on different types of eyes? Well, I took the liberty of testing them out on some random, er, selectively chosen eyes of different styles found right here on Mod The Sims. Whether you like doll eyes, cartoonish eyes, or sem-realistic eyes, this is a nice sample of how it will work:
Those were all grey or almost grey eyes, so you know. So yeah, like, cool and stuff.

MAKEUP: Some of them can't get enough of Kimsie's Realistic Eyeliner. They're also wearing Nysha's Peahen Eyeshadow. Besides that, they're wearing special effect makeup from my UnBeauty Parlor.

TOU-Have fun! You may use my textures for anything you like. You may tear apart my meshes and do whatever you want with them. Just respect the policies of any creators whose work I may use in my own projects. Otherwise, have fun.
If you ever do use any of my stuff as a basis for your own, I'd love to hear from you, just to check it out. You can either PM me or leave a comment in one of my uploads. But you don't have to get permission from me to post anything; consider permission already granted.
