To: @Mort_Opal: Here's a quick demo on sliders.
It's amazing what the sliders can do in order to change your sim's look. NO CC.
Pick any sim from the bin. Let's take for example this one:

Start using the sliders.

If it wasn't for the same clothes. Would you believe they ALL came from the same base sim?
Like I said, I used no CC...just used the base sliders...and they "don't" look alike.
OK...let me remind you again what the BASE sim looks like.

NOW, I'm not going to touch the sliders and I'm ONLY going to use CC.

Now do you see why everyone is telling you to learn how to use the sliders. You can do a LOT with the sliders, without even utilizing CC.
