emo isn't short for emotional, it's short for emotive hardcore (a type of music from the early 90s). the look is nothing like goth, but tons of emo kids wear black eye makeup and have short black hair. lip piercings or septum piercings are also pretty emo.

it's not really that goth. i've personally never known one emo person that put white makeup on their face, that's definitely a goth thing. another major difference in emo/goth makeup is that an emo person wouldn't wear black lipstick, and they usually don't draw on their eyebrows. those are more goth things to do.
most "emo" kids i know where a lot of smudgey eyeliner and that's it. the females usually have short black hair with sideswept bangs. the males usually have messy black hair that covers their eyes.

Emo means lots of eyeliner, whiteish face- think Billy Joe Armstrong of Green Day.
And it's not gay like the other person said.

'Emo' is short for 'emotional'. An emo person is someone who is really emotional and makes their problems seem bigger then they really are. Emos are ALWAYS sad, depressed, and feel like no one loves them.
Emos wear lots of eye liner (I mean, LOTS) and usually dye their hair black. This is known as the 'emo' look.

goth is a lot of black eyeliner and red eyeshadow. you can draw eyelashes or other black designs on your eyes and face. emo can have black eyeliner that is winged on top lids and a bit on the lower outer corner of the eyes plus black/dark blue/dark greea/purple eyeshadow.
