Custom Reflection
The Sunglasses template allows you to use a simple 2D image as a custom reflection. To use a custom reflection, enable the Custom Reflection checkbox.
The custom reflection will not be influenced by the environment map
Changing the Custom Reflection
Edit the custom reflection’s texture by changing the Reflection Texture property to your own custom texture. To import a custom texture into Lens Studio, select + -> Import Files in the Resources panel.
Adjust the Reflection Intensity slider to define how prominent your custom reflection is.
Custom Sprite
A custom sprite can be added to the lenses as well. Unlike the custom reflection, the custom sprites are attached to the frames and rotate with the sunglasses. To enable the custom sprite, check the Custom Sprite checkbox.
Changing the Custom Sprite
You can change the custom sprite’s texture by changing the Sprite Texture property to a custom texture you’ve imported into Lens Studio.
Make sure the imported sprite texture is not transparent so it can be blended with the lens reflection.

Finally, you can adjust the custom sprite’s position using the Sprite Offset X and Sprite Offset Y sliders.

The template includes a handful of environment maps that you can try out. You can find them under the Environment Map folder in the Resources panel.
