You need to subscribe to the XSkin mod on the Steam Workshop. Once subscribed, it should automatically download. Then, just activate it in the XCOM 2 launcher before starting the game.
Honestly, if you have the mod but it's not working, double-check you don't have conflicting mods enabled. Sometimes, it's just a matter of switching the load order or disabling a rogue mod.
From experience, I've found that some mods just conflict no matter what you do. If XSkin isn't working, try disabling other character customization mods one-by-one to find the culprit. Good luck!
Simple fix: Make sure your game and all mods are updated to the latest versions. A lot of the time, it's just an update issue.
