How to apply a custom skin to WP_Editor / TinyMCE?

Question

Apparently, the default WordPress style files overwrite a custom TinyMCE skin. So what you need to do is deregister WordPress’s TinyMCE skin.

Since I needed the custom skin to only apply on the front-end on my website, I wrapped it inside an !is_admin() conditional.

function remove_editor_buttons_style() {

    // If not on wp-admin
    if ( !is_admin() ) {
        wp_deregister_style( 'editor-buttons' );
    }

} add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_editor_buttons_style' );
