stars who've had really good plastic surgery and expert skin care and even then,the lighting and choice in makeup/clothing is crucial.

So to answer your question, no I don't think I look good in comparision to my age peers.

No woman thinks she looks good. That's why they do.

Sorry for camera quality, it's a canon powershot sd 400 and takes TERRIBLE(REALLY) photos.

you need to fix those eyebrows, stat.

Because his eyebrows obviously prevent him from being successful or from having sex with a woman? :confused:

You'd be surprised. Yes, I know I need to fix me brows... But it looks kind of weird when a guy waxes his brows. O_O

I'm going to be 24 in a few days, and I've had people tell me that I look under 18. I've had one person tell me I looked like I was 14.

I'm 18 and I probably look my age. Maybe a little younger if I have a vacant expression, maybe a little older if I have a mean expression.

That's semi-bad, semi-good. I look like a pedophiles wet dream. :(

You're right about that. I asked my fiancee (so there's no bias) and she said "12 or 13?".

I look young for my age. I'm 22, people pass me for like, 15. LOL. Guess when I'm in my 60's I'll like that, now it's kinda annoying. Mind you it's good in a way. People often think I'm a co-op student even though I'm full time, so if I screw up something and they'll forgive me. :p

Then they find out I am 18 and have this look of shock. Really, I look EXTREMELY YOUNG. Maybe that's my problem? (L&R)

I'm actually in the exactly opposite boat. I took a college class (all upperclassmen if I remember correctly) when I was 16. Nobody had any idea I was 16, apparently, and if if my age got out in conversation, it was met by surprise. Now let's hope I stop looking old as I actually get old...

it comes down to... you want to look older when you are younger and younger when you are older.

i think everyone wants to look 21 when they are late teens, but then after the mid 20's everyone wants to look 21 again.
