Sims Freeplay | Fashion Hunter Hobby | Glam & Glitz Update

Who can be a fashion hunter?

Teens and adults can be fashion hunters.  Up to 5 Sims can complete this hobby in the mall.

How can you be a fashion hunter?

You need to complete the Pretty Little Planters quest and the make up artist hobby.  Once you have completed those you will need to unlock 'Memory Lane' which is the second area of the second floor of Sunset Mall.  Once unlocked you will need to bring as many Sims over to the mall and clean up the area.
Once all cleaned up you will need to build the 4 stores on the right side of the mall - Legit, Mandolins Boutique, Kthxbai! and Electric Kapow.  Only when all of these stores are built will you get access to the fashion hunter hobby.


To take part in the fashion hunter hobby you can either click on the 'sale stalls' in the centre of the mall or the clothes racks outside any of the stores in the mall.


What will I unlock?

As soon as you build the Fashion Hunter Bargain Center a 7 day limited time event. You will need to complete the fashion hunter hobby within the time limit to win the sky diving. You will unlock the Movie Theatre even if you don't complete the hobby within the 7 days.


What are the fashion hunter options?

There is only one option when completing the hobby - 'Hunt for Fashion' for 5 hours 30 mins

What are the fashion hunter collectibles?



As with the make up artist hobby each time you complete a row of the collectibles you unlock a new store in Sunet Mall.

What do I win?

The first time you complete the grid you will win the Movie Theatre and is you complete it within 7 days you will also win the Indoor Skydiving.

What if I can't find a collectible?

Just keep going.  It is completely random which collectible you win each time so there are no special tricks to getting a specific one.  You need to get at least one Sim up to level 6 though to be able to collect them all and you can have up to 5 Sims completing the hobby at one time.

Sims Freeplay | Designer Rug Event

On Tuesday 15 September 2015 the Designer Rug Event comes to Sims Freeplay.  It is a 7 day  limited time event where you can win 7 different sets of rugs.  Was anyone else really sick of those rugs that we won with the Dance To Remember Quest? I know I was.




So what do you have to do?

To win one set of rugs you must complete the whole of the fishing hobby grid. That means to collect all 18 of the fish on the fishing hobby collectible grid.  To do this you must have at least one Sim at level 8 in the fishing hobby.



How to complete the event in time

Remember there are 4 spots you can fish.

The park


Deer Spring Falls


The beach


In a neighbours town at either their park, Deer Spring Falls or beach.














  • Have a Sim at each of the four spots completing the 10 minute 'Go Fishing' option.
  • Have one Sim at level 8 fishing hobby.
  • Remember to reset the fishing hobby each time you complete it.


What do you think of this limited time event?  Are you excited for some new rugs like I am?

Sims Freeplay | Make Up Artist Hobby | Glitz And Glam Update

The make up artist hobby was released with the Glitz and Glam update in September 2015



Who can be a Make-Up Artist?

Teens and adult Sims.

What do I need for a Sim to become a make-up artist?

You will need to have built the second floor of the Sunset Mall and completed the Pretty Little Planters discovery quest.  Once you have completed the quest you will need to build 4 second floor stores in Sunset Mall and Hangout Central.  Once you have built all of these you will be able to build the Make Up Kiosk.

What will I unlock?

As soon as you build the Make-Up Kiosk a limited time hobby event begins.  You have 7 days to complete the make up hobby to win a vanity.  If you miss out on completing it within the 7 days you will unlock the coin fountain in the mall.



What are the make up options?

To complete the make up hobby you will need 2 Sims.  You click on the make up kiosk with your first Sim and 'Wait for customer' for 10 mins, then, with your second Sim click on the make up kiosk and 'make up' for 4 hours 30 mins.

What are the make up looks?


As you can see from the grid each time you complete a row of the grid you will unlock a new store to build on the second floor of Sunset Mall.

Completing set 1 (Prime Example, Concealed & Contour) will unlock  Y.O.L.O. Wear Fine Threads



Completing set 2 (Blush and Attract, Powder Prince & Brow Specialist) will unlock Bang! Bang! Salon


Completing set 3 (Clump Avoidance, Shadow Ninja & Line It Up) will unlock Everybody Skirts


Completing set 4 (Mascarader, Lash Out & Lip It Up) will unlock Scene And Heard


What do I win?

1st time you complete the grid you win the coin fountain (if you complete it within the 7 day time limit you will also win the ultimate vanity)
2nd - 8th times you complete the grid you win a new make up look




What if I can't find a make up look?

It's completely random which look you win each time you complete the 4 hours 30 min option.  If you can't find one all I can suggest is you keep going - you will get there eventually.



After completing the make up artist hobby you will be able to unlock the second area of Sunset Mall and begin the Fashion hunter hobby.
