📋 About This Mod
What this mod does
I thought I'd make this amazing skin more available for SE, made by rxkx22, the author of all the Bijin mods.
These textures are for the female player and all female NPCs (Except beasts) that uses default skin.

What I've improved or changed from the original
Uncompressed diffuse and normal maps were saved in BC7 format. Switched SK maps to those from Fair Skin Complexion saved in BC7 format. CBBE textures made compatible with CBBE Special. Added normal maps for elders. Added a muscular normal map and a no moles head diffuse maps. Added blankdetailmap, freckles and rough detailmaps from Fair Skin Complexion to erase neckseams that is caused by vanilla detailmaps. Added realistic head diffuse with no moles.
Added curvy CBBE normal map (both default and muscular) and added skinny UNP normal map (both default and muscular)
Requirements
CBBE or UNP body meshes.
Touched by Dibella: Download CBBE version
Vanilla body: Download UNP version and use Vanilla body with UNP Textures
Install with a mod manager (Recommended)
Manual installation
Take the content of the folder 0 - Base and paste in your data folder. Then take what you want out of all the folders, you need something from every folder 1 - 4 (5 - Tintmasks are optional) and paste them in your data folder. It's quite clear what is what.
Uninstall with mod manager (Recommended)
Manual uninstallation
Remove all the female folders under textures\actors\character and the blankdetailmap under textures\actors\character\male
If you chose tintmasks, then remove them under textures\actors\character\character assets\tintmasks.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Massive community trust – 42,912 endorsements and 2.5M downloads, this is a staple for Skyrim SE players
- Works with both CBBE and UNP, so you're covered no matter which body mod you use
- Simple texture replacer – no complex patches or load order headaches, just drop and go
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2018 – might not be optimized for the latest Skyrim SE patches, though textures usually age fine
- No screenshots or detailed description provided, so you're flying blind on the actual look until you try it
- Only covers skin textures – if you want body meshes or other enhancements, you'll need separate mods
For Skyrim SE players who want a polished, realistic skin texture for their female characters without dealing with complex body mod setups. If you're using CBBE or UNP and want a quick visual upgrade, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or need a mod that's actively maintained.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have either CBBE or UNP body mod installed first, as this only replaces textures
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install – it's a simple drag-and-drop, but managing overwrites is easier with a manager
- If you're using a mod that changes body textures, load this one after to ensure it takes priority
