It's probably worth mentioning that many of the very realistic looking sims make subtle use of makeup to give additional visual structure to faces. I think the name of the default skin I use, "Primer", already suggests that idea. Because of my color vision, I abstain from doing this, as the resulting faces would probably look like that of a mandrill, and this means that my sims will always look a bit bland. However, even with default sliders alone, I think you can already get some decent results, even if it won't be "top tier".
I don't use much makeup but I almost always use this EA eyeliner on my sims

I make the opacity about half and change the color to go with the hair color to give subtle lower lashes.
I will use lipstick on the female sims and sometimes blush/face highlighting / face contouring on both genders.
P.S. You sims look good without makeup. :)
I do use the eyeliner, but I make the color very close to the skin color and then turn the opacity down to almost the lowest it can be. I also do the same with some of the blushes. But I cannot do makeup in real life and definitely can't do makeup in the game. LOL..I know my limitations. I will look around for makeup/face highlighters. I think that's what I see that makes sims look different. It's all about the shading!
Your sims look really good. They look like their facial features are different. And maybe I need some new hair. Most everyone has CC hair and I have mostly default or store hair, which isn't great.
