Hello I have been playing sims for a long time now, but I have never use custom content before. I'm trying to install this sim on my game ( http://www.thesimsre...ndy/id/1136912/ ), the sim shows up in the pre-made sim panel but it looks different from the sim on the site. My question is how do I get this sim to look like it does on the page? I did download the CC Not Included, all except Hair, Skin, and Lipstick. I figure that the skin, hair, and lipstick wouldn't be a big deal, is it a big deal to the over all look of the sim?

Any help will be appreciated it :D and thanks in advance.

Yes, it is a big deal. The hair and lipstick aren't going to make that much of a change if you don't have them, but not having the custom skintone will definitely change the appearance of the Sim. That custom skintone is basically a new facial texture that gives a different look to the nose, eyes, mouth, etc than the default EA face. So if you don't have that, the face will look different.

Do you have all the custom sliders as well? Not having these can change the look as well.

Cheddarprime, the Sim in question does not use any sliders, so that is not something that Ochow1 has to worry about. ;)
