How do I look older than I am??

Question

I am 15, but people say that I look like I'm 12 or 13. I am so tired of ppl saying that I look younger than I am!!! I am kind of small for my age; I barley weigh 105 lbs, and im about 5'4. I desperately need some tips on how to look older than I am!!!

Answer 1

Don't wear pink or anything that glitters.

Answer 2

I know it's frustrating now but you will love it when you get older, looking younger is a good thing. But for now just carry yourself with more cofidence that is the only way I can think, because you don't want to load on the make up that will just make you look cheap. I say don't worry about it too much really. You will be thankful of it one day.

Answer 3

It is in the way that you carry yourself and in the way that you dress. Carry yourself with confidence - good posture, head held high, no matter what your height. Looking self-possessed like that will make you seem older.

When dressing, don't follow the teeny-bopper trends that girls your age tend to to do. If it is the fad of the moment, avoid it, because that will 'date' you and your outfit. Dress in a more classic, sophisticated style, with timeless fashions and more elegant cuts and colors. Do NOT do the teen-slut look. That is extremely stupid looking. Those girls think that it makes them look more mature, when in reality it makes them look cheap.

Answer 4

Do what MaryKate Olsen does: wear older, mature looking clothing, use a very pale powder on the face, dark eyeshadows, and a dark red lipstick. This will age you more than you will want though.

Answer 5

I don't think you need to seem any older or younger than you really are. Don't slab on makeup because you want to be accepted.

Answer 6

if ur allowed 2 wear makeup put some around ur eyes and maybe cut your hair to a more edgy look, and change ur style

Answer 7

haha, everyone says that to me too, enjoy it, don't try to look older because when you are older everyone will be jealous of how you look younger than them......Don't change a thing! trust me!

Answer 8

Wear some eyeliner. Makeup always makes you look older and mature.

Answer 9

wait until your 30 and look 20, very cool

Answer 10

to be honest you should be happy that way when ur 40 u'll look 30 and everyone else will look like old wrinkled hags while u'll be looking like a sexy cougar (nice looking older woman). be happy because when u start looking too old ur gonna hate it.
