How can i look older??

Question

I have like no boobs, im short and i have a baby face. I am 18 years old but people always think I am like 10 or twelve, at best 13. Even people at my job who don't know me think I might be too young to be there. People always tell me its a good thing cuz i will look 20 when im 40. As for now I wanna look my own age. And by the way boys always know I am 18 except for the ones who think I am older. Whats up with that??
Please tell me how I can look older.

Answer 1

If you want to just look older, stay out in the sun until you dry up; smoke a lot because that will add wrinkles; drink a lot because that will put bags under your eyes, etc
I'm going to change your question to how you can look your best. Just be thankful for everything you are and act accordingly. The sexiest young lady I ever met had a AA bra cup. It was her attitude. Your language (I mean refined, not crude) will make you appear your age. It is attitude. A little makeup does wonders. I say a little because the little children pile it on without knowing how it should be used. A more mature person understands that less is more. If the makeup is obvious, there is too much of it. It is attitude. Wear clothing that is appropriate for your age. Dress dignified. Slutty clothing is for the ignorant and the sluts. It is attitude. Have I gotten the background point across? Attitude will make you appear your age.
Two other points: 1. the last time that I was carded (in an 18 state), I was 29 and flashed a police badge; 2. I'm a guy.

Answer 2

I feel the same way as you do. im 16 but people think im 11 or 12. Id say wear makeup. If you already do, put more on. or, you can try a new hair style. I recently got bangs cut in my hair and a lot of people told me I look older. but you just gotta experiment with things. but other than that, dont worry what people think of you. you know your 18 no matter if you look it or not =]

Answer 3

wear make up sweetie, that'll make you look some years older but in a sexy way, change your style of clothes, just because you have no boobs doesn't mean wear sexy clothes, high heels, wear shirts the come down in the middle, you can even go get push up bras or padded bras to help...also it's all about the way you talk to people, if you talk to them like you're a little girl they'll think you don't belong with the adults I mean there's nothing to it.

Answer 4

1. sophisticated hair cut that plays up your more adult looking features. if you have chubby cheeks get layers that fall at your eyes or lips to draw away from your cheek bones. or a shorter hair cut that frames your face

2. use make up to flatter your adult features too.

3. dress more sophisticated. wear stylish clothes not boring t-shirts and not things that are childish, even if they are trendy.

4. try heels or platforms to make you look taller

5. maybe it's not just how you look but how you act. if you act kind of immature and don't look very old you'll end up seeming to be a lot younger than you actually are.

Well I guess those girls you know, just try and pick on you. There are a lot of people your age who look young, you still have more years to grow-maybe. Or just wear more make up. I dunno.
