Actually realistic face mods that are true to Skyrim?

I am in the process of making a list of mods for the Xbox One that I would like to download and am keeping track of how many bytes each one uses, the titles and creator names, and things I need to know beforehand (i.e. I need to download a mod for adopting more kids BEFORE I start a playthrough in order for it to work right). I'm trying to be organized and prepared so I'm not scrambling when I finally get the remaster. I was hoping to find a mod to - there is no nice way to say this - fix the usually ugly faces of the men in Skyrim. Now, the mods I've found on Nexus Mods seem to match what people are saying are available on the Xbox One, so I'm searching through Nexus to find what I'm looking for, and am having no luck.


I have only ever played on consoles, no PC unfortunately, so I have no experience with mods. This is pretty much my crash course before I take the plunge. I don't know if I'm using less than helpful search terms or what, but pretty much every male-face-fixing mod I've come across is so starkly different from the graphics and art style of the game, it's laughable.


I enjoy the art style of Skyrim immensely, it was one of the first games I ever played and I was always struck by how it had a unique look in comparison to the games that try to be hyper-realistic. I absolutely love the style and am grateful the remaster looks like it doesn't lose that style completely, whilst allowing downloadable enhancements! So, I'd like a mod that's as close and true to the look of Skyrim as possible, while making sure Onmund doesn't look like his mother was a Neanderthal, for example. I am not looking to change the faces of the women, or to have the dirt or makeup or wrinkles removed off of everyone. I've tried looking for both NPC-specific mods that I can download as a group and all-male mods to cover everyone and am only coming up with mods that make me think the creator wanted a game that featured Final Fantasy males. Seriously, so many of these face mods make me wonder if the creator was daydreaming about playing a game surrounded by boy-band members.


I am open to suggestions for specific NPCs and for all NPCs, I'm okay with checking out both-gender mods as well. Just as long as they actually look like they belong in a high fantasy RPG where there are no daily bathing routines, anti-aging creams, or Botox shots to be found. Thanks folks!
