The Sims 4 got a free baby update last week, and modders have already been working hard to provide players with even more options to perfect their ideal family. This includes beautiful babies. While I understand wanting to adjust the hair or eye color of a fake baby, a lot of mods go further than that. Kotaku readers, I present to you: Babies with perfectly trimmed eyebrows, permanent blush, and huge falsies. Personally, I think theyāre a little young to be learning about the Sephora industrial complex, but Iāll let you be the judge.

Growing Together is a major expansion that allows Simmers to explore the infant life stage for both the child and their parents. Sims are now permanently altered by āMilestonesā like potty training, and they can develop quirks that will follow them for the rest of their lives. But babies donāt just have to worry about peeing and lifting their heads. The real question is, are they social media worthy?
Itās not just women now: Virtual babies can also be held to unnatural beauty standards. Just look at some of these eyelash mods. āINFANTS NEED LASHES TOO,ā wrote the mod creator. Theyāre right, of courseābut not those eyelashes. I donāt know any baby or adult whoās capable of growing those without generous applications of mascara or some falsies. And these baby brows look glued on. To another creator, I ask: Must babies look like they have a cold all the time? Why are babies doing the TikTok under-eye blush trend?

Thereās technically no minimum age for children to get their ears pierced, but this baby earring mod makes me think there should be.

The Sims community were as disturbed as the Kotaku staffers were. āI cannot stop laughing at these Bella Hadid ass babies!,ā wrote one redditor. āLike sir, please: Why does this newborn baby have buccal fat removal and look like it has a diverse stock portfolio? I just want mine to look like a fat potato.ā Several Simmers commented that they were looking for cute clothes, not baby eyelash extensions. Not all of the mods were about giving the babies a glow up, though.This āpuppyfaceā mod adds baby fat to babiesā default faces in order to create a more natural look.
āPeople who want to yassify their babies need a [Child Protective Services] call,ā wrote one redditor
