Petite Oval

How can makeup make me look older...?

Hi. I'm a sixteen year old girl who often gets mistaken for a 12 or 13 year old boy. It has nothing to do with my body(although I am petite). It's my face I guess. haha Anyway, I don't want advice on how to dress or how to act. This is a makeup and eyebrow crisis ONLY. haha I know that sounded stupid, but it's true. I'd really like step by step eyebrow stuff, and I want to stick to wearing black eyeliner/brown eyeliner. I have medium length sort of bushy brownish blondish hair that I have been straightening lately. I have blue eyes, and I guess my face type or whatever is oval. Light skin..Anyway, I really need someone's help!!! Thanks!!!
For anyone saying 'i'll be glad when I'm older' I'm aware of that. But I want to live my teenage years as a teenager, and not as a 12 year old boy! haha please understand that. Thanks

Eyeliner alone can just make you look like a raccoon, especially if you don't do it right. With your coloring, I would suggest you try some eyeshadow and mascara to emphasize your eyes. Try shades of violet, bluish-gray, or silver for the eye shadow (that will complement your blue eyes) and use black mascara (it will look better than brown!), but not too heavily. Also, just a touch of blush (a rose shade, not too pink, not too brown) on the "apples" of your cheeks, from the center of the cheek outwards. That ought to be enough to emphasize your femininity without making you look overly made up. Unless your eyebrows are bushy or overly thin, don't do too much with them. If they are very pale, you can darken them a little with a brown eyebrow pencil, but don't overdo it. If they need shaping, pluck the really stray hairs but definitely do not over pluck. You may want to find a friend who does her makeup well and get her to help you with technique. Or take advantage of the people who do "makeovers" at department store makeup counters, but emphasize that you are looking for a natural daytime look. A little makeup subtly applied can make a huge difference. Too much makeup will just make you look slutty or stupid. When in doubt, use less.
