To install:

Copy the esp file to Steam/steamapps/common/Fallout 4/Data folder, reload the game being sure the esp is active.

For the LooksMenu preset, please install into Fallout4/Data/F4SE/Plugins/F4EE/Presets

Activate the esp through your mod manager or manually add it to the plugins.txt file. I would sort it to come after these other mods to guarantee the conversion is successful.
