How to Fix the Brown Face Bug in Fallout 4
First up, try 'Refreshing Actors'. Open the console with the tilde (~) key, and then type 'taa off' followed by 'taa on'. It's like giving the game a quick refresh. If that doesn't do the trick, reloading an earlier save before the bug appeared can sometimes work wonders. Saved my Lone Wanderer's good looks more than once!

The brown face bug is often a mod conflict or outdated graphics driver issue. Make sure your mods, if you have any, are in the correct load order. Tools like LOOT can help with that. Also, check if your graphics drivers are up to date. Outdated drivers are notorious for causing all sorts of glitches.
LOL just enjoy the apocalypse with some extra flavor. Who says a bit of brown face can't add to the gritty atmosphere?
Just disable all your mods and then enable them one by one. Tedious, but it's the best way to pinpoint the troublemaker. Trust me, been there, done that, and it turned out to be a custom hair mod conflicting with another texture overhaul. Also, remember to clean your mods with FO4Edit; it can fix issues you didn't even know you had.
Seriously, most of the time, it's a mod issue. If you've got a ton of mods installed, chances are high one of them is messing with character textures. The solution? Mod management. Make sure they're updated and not conflicting with each other. It's almost always a mod thing.
