How can I do my make up so I look older?

So Im sixteen. I look like Im 13. Honestly. Its pretty ridiculous. I have a stunted growth, but not that bad. Im 5'2. Dancer boobs. My doctor told me it was best to get boob implants on my 18th birthday. I have a baby face like no other. Looking So...

young. Everyone who doesnt know me mistakes me for a freshman. Eww. How can I do my make up so I look older? Any tips?

why do you want to look older. If you look younger than when your 50 you will look 40-45. I think you should be comfortable how you look. Plus, you dance so you are prob in decent to really good shape. I think you should be happy you look young and keep it that way. Make-up wouldnt make you look older just sluttier.

I agree. LOVE YOURSELF. Everyone is more critical of themselves. I get carded almost everytime I go out drinking. I'm 21 and I get carded to buy cigarettes because people think I look 16!

I would think just doing a good job on your make up would make you look nice but not necessarily older. And a boob job?!? Thats a waste in my opinion. Whatever makes you happy, but you should learn to love yourself for how you are.

oh hun please dont grow up to fast, you have the rest of your life to be older, now is your youth, enjoy it for what you are! you have to be a women for most of your life its now that you enjoy being an adolescent. And dont get a boob job at 18, your boobs are still growing until your atleast 21 so if your dead set on egtting a boob job atleast wait until they have grown fully, who nos at 18 you may have a growth spirt and they'll get bigger all on their own, its to early to be making these types of decisions.

hey I know exactly how you feel im 17 and im only 148cm tall people say I look 12 but honestly its not bad at all, I find that guys love it and as for implants I had the same idea personally I am an A cup, for a while it got to me but it really doesnt matter, if this is about you feeling like guys will judge you bout the size of em the guys that do arnt worth s***t b comfortable with your self hun everything will fall in to place.

The things you've described here, sound like Turners Syndrome. It not really anything too serious, but it could answer a lot of questions for you. Talk to your doctor about it. In the meantime, look it up on the web.

A lot of girls have it without knowing... my little cousin has it, and so does her best friend, they met at a supprot group for girls with Turners...

Hey, well first of all I am 13, but still, use a lot of black eyeliner, it works!

Okay- if you are 5'2 I don't think you need to worry about Turner Syndrome.
Also- I agree with the "boob job" at 18 being a bad idea. Personally, I resembled a boy chest-wise until I was 23. They sprang up over night and now are perfectly in proportion to my body. Just be patient. I'm 5'1 and 24 years old. Most people on the street guess me at 14.
If you are 16 and people are mistaking you for 13, it's probably the way you dress (you may need to ditch the baby-tees and ultra low-rise jeans and go for a more sophisticated look), and you aren't an adult. There is an air of maturity that comes with age. You can't buy it and you can't fake it. Just be patient!
If you think makeup will make a difference, less is more. A little mascara, and some lip gloss every day. Play up the eyes on special occasions, but use neutral colors. No fuschia or peacock blue! Also- get your eyebrows done. That helps a lot. All in all, don't rush it!

Okay, I had the same problem. lol, I'm 16 also, but thanks to the magic of make up, I look older, like 17-19. Anyway, first, start with the eyeshadow, choose a light colour like pink and cover your eyelids with it, and then take a darker colour(probably 2 or 3 shades darker than your pink, try sticking to one colour to not make it stand out too much) and from the OUTSIDE of your crease, to the inside apply the eyeshadow, so it should have you a more defined look. Now add on mascara, and use a bit of black eyeliner on the top of your lid. This takes lots of practice, so don't be bumed if you can't get it right away. My email is Fun mail me if you have any questions or whats to see pictures, step by step. ^.^ Good luck.

just use not 2 much make-up because then you will look like your trying to be older and it will look slutish, use eye liner/black and smudge it round the edge of the eye lids above and below for a smokey effect. don't use lip stick, use a clear lip gloss, use some foundation and some blusher, make sure they are powder or you will look like an orange/ strawberry. use eyelash curlers and a really thick good mascara. make sure you take all the make-up off at night and use a spot cream and moisteriser, you will need them from wearing so much make-up. Also a tip to look older is hair!, your hair depends a lot on what age you look!. full fringes make you look younger so if you want to look much older get a side sweep fringe, highlights and either long hair/extentions or a short layerd hair cut. hope this helps!! xx

Hey Beautiful,
I am 16 too and I am so sick of being told "Oh I thought you were 12"
So I get the your problem
First of all try not to over do it. If are deliverately going for an out there you can stil do it with style.
Like a lot of my pictures are a little crazy because I dont like want to be like everyone else. And thats fair enough
I dont always like to look older but it does come in handy. Try to use a transluicide foundation and put a light powder over the top of that. Make sure you give it good even coverage because there's nothing worse then a patchy face.
With your eyes because I cant see your skin tone I would stick with something very nutral ... A gold or brown. Mascara is an amazing thing and I suggest something that helps boost the size of your eyelashes
The thing you have to remember with lipstick and lipgloss is that dark lipstick makes your lips look smaller. So if you already have small lips I would avoid it. Where as gloss expands the size of your lips.
These are just a few things I picked up in my classes =]
Take a look at some of my pictures you will see what I mean :P

I'm 19 and people think im between the age range of 12-16, it gets really annoying when someone younger then me will talk to me like a kid, but I know in the end it'll be worth it! Appreciate it because we might look younger now but when we are like 30, 40 it'll be a good thing.

And but really how much do you really change in three years I still look the same as I did really when I was 12 so people are technically right, only some physical differences like my height, and just recently my breast are bigger but that was just recently I put on weight ( was underweight)

If your worried about guys not liking you or something, I have the opposite affect guys seem to like the fact that I look younger, it doesn't keep pervs from stalking me...Lolita seems to be in now adays

I'm 15 and I use a lot of blackeyeliner also, It does add atleast 2 years to my age. Some people don't believe that im only 15

well, to make myself look older I pile on foundation, outline my eyes with liquid eyeliner and wear heels, and dress a bit older, im 14 but when I was 12 I cud get into 15 movies at the cinema, when I was 13 I told served alcohol at a hotel, and now im 14 people are shocked to find out how young I am, most people think im at least 16, but others have their doubts

I have the same problem. im 17 and get asked for id to see 15 films.. though I didnt get asked for ID in ann summers when my mum took me there as a joke :s I've learnt that the older you get and the younger you look makes you feel younger so get out there and have some "innocent" fun while you last... you may nt be so lucky later on in life and end up looking not so young... keep active and eat healthily and dont stop doing the things you love...

I know exactly what you mean. I'm 22 (almost 23) and always get mistaken for a highschool student all the time. I get carded for everything even lottery tickets. I have a very youthful looking baby face and can't grow any decent facial hair and am also very skinny. I tried to make myself look my age (not older) but my age by trying to grow some facial hair which I couldn't even grow to save my life as well as exercise (weightlifting to bulk up) about every other day of the week. None of these things worked so now I am left underdeveloped looking with a highschool aged body built with no facial hair. It's worse looking young in your twenty's then as a teenager because I am a College graduate and nobody even takes me serious at the workforce. Everybody treats me like I'm 14, 15 or so, I always get called boy, kid, teenager, etc. Believe me I know how difficult it is I was once there, and I'm still there. Hang in there I guess later on we'll be so lucky that we look so young. When we are in our 50's others will mistake us for being in our 30's.
