New Crown Crate Lip Tints Remove Character's Eye Makeup

So this is my character in her default makeup:
I love the eyeliner but have long wished I could change the goth girl black lipstick. So I was actually pretty excited to find out we were getting a RED lip tint in the new crown crates this upcoming season. So today I opened my free crates and discovered that I got the Nocturnal Indigo Lip Tint. While not the color I wanted I was excited to see how it would look. Well, it looks like this:
That's right, it REMOVES her EYE MAKEUP entirely. Note that she is also wearing the Subtle Dark Lashes from the crown store and THOSE do not remove her eye makeup OR her lipstick! So, buyer beware... these lip tints are pretty bad and for those of us who have hoped to be able to change our character's lipstick ALONE... this doesn't work. Indeed, I am wondering if this is unintended and if it will be fixed before ZOS actually starts charging money for them. @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom can you let us know? because if, like many problematical crown store releases that have flaws, it is NOT going to be corrected to where it does not alter the eye makeup I see no reason to purchase even one crate in hope of being able to get this item.

✭That's definitely intended. They're both face markings, and you cannot have two face markings active at one time.
It's the same with argonian scales that are completely removed by tattoos. Or how skins remove vampirism. There's no system in game to "Overlay" multiple cosmetic textures on top of each other.Edited by Marto on September 27, 2017 4:36PM"According to the calculations of the sages of the Cult of the Ancestor Moth, the batam guar is the cutest creature in all Tamriel"4 -

Yeah, basically what I was going to say. The lipstick is a facial marking layer, which will overwrite any other active facial marking layer.
That said, Marto's not exactly correct, when he says that there's no overlay system. The game actually supports multiple layers overlapping each other. For example, previewing a skin on a vampire will produce an otherwise unavailable variant. (And, Before Dark Brotherhood, equipping mindshriven on a vampire would result in glowing red eyes.)
So, technically, the system could be reconfigured to display multiple skins or other modifiers simultaneously. That said, I suspect there's some internal limit, that causes the game to flake out if it's exceeded. We've seen some of this with the bug where some cosmetic items would cull whenever you transitioned if you had enough active at once.2 -

It does.
It says "Head marking" on the top left corner. That means it will replace any other head marking equiped.
This is not like, for example, the Midyear Victor's Laurel Wreath, which despite being a hat, doesn't behave like a hat. That one is clearly bugged.Edited by Marto on September 27, 2017 7:07PM"According to the calculations of the sages of the Cult of the Ancestor Moth, the batam guar is the cutest creature in all Tamriel"0 -

Sure, why not? I realize a lot of people don't get Saintie Claws khajiit humor but I agreed with her sentiment and joined her little campaign against the gamble boxes which have just gotten worse and worse. Remember when they told us they were just going to have special mounts and discontinued store costumes so you could "have a second chance" at them? And that cosmetics would remain available for outright purchase? And then almost instantly started putting all kinds of unique pets and cosmetics in them?PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!0 -

I'm not quite sure why they can't seem to figure out their own layering schemes. It's super frustrating.PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!0 -

It's a face accessory. When it originally dropped, you could stack it with another face accessory, and the result with the crowns was actually pretty snazzy. Of course, they fixed that part, but it still shows up as a hat instead of an accessory.1 -

Now that we're talking about this I have heard of several cosmetics that remove something else. So apparently it's a system-wide flaw and they just aren't doing anything about it.PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!0 -
Bloodtruffle✭✭✭I was equally disappointed when Oracle Eyes couldn't be paired with facial hair. All Maormer men must go baby-faced, it seems. It's just very frustrating when you have this particular look you want to put across but hodge-podge design keeps it from happening. As Alexandria said, it's shoddy. Crown Crate purchases could never be as big as they can be, because people will think, "Man, I really like that new goatee, but I can't see my character going without his kohl eyeliner."
In my case, I guess I shouldn't be QQing because I'm making a race that isn't supported. But let's put it on more basic terms: "Should a blind man be able to have a beard?" I mean, I love Elder Scrolls, and this isn't going to have me up in arms. But it's something I would strongly encourage they improve.2 -

Oh rats, never saw that one. I too tried to make "a Maomer"; I'll have to post another pic at some point..
