I'm a size 6/8, yet my face could easily be from someone twice my size. I'm not the only one who's noticed either, a lot of people pick up on it. It also makes me look a lot younger than I am. I'm 18, yet many people believe I'm only about 12 or 13. Is there anything I could do to make it thinner? Or at least make it LOOK thinner?

It's normal for quite a lot of people to have a chubby face.
See post number 2, overall exercise may be the answer.

Plastic surgery, duh!

Some people hide it with the way they have their hair cut eg i think longer hair makes a face look longer and therefore thinner, whilst bobs draw attention to the roundness of a face - hope that helps

Yeah I agree with the hair cut ^^

If you wear make-up, you could maybe play around with trying to highlight cheekbones?

It might 'thin' out as you get a bit older. I used to have a chubbier face until I was about 21/22 and now it seems a bit more defined, especially around the cheekbone area. Don't try and loose weight or anything though, as it probably wont make a difference and as you're already tiny it would be unwise. Don't worry about looking young, it's annoying now, but when you're 30 and look 24, it'll be a bonus

It really isn't worth losing weight over when simple things like a new haircut or new makeup style could be the solution

Use bronzer to contour your face.

Oh I know the pain, people also like to pinch my cheeks

I definitely know where you're coming from: I have a dictionary-definition baby face at age 23 (dimples and all). I've largely learned to accept and even like my chubby cheeks, but if I'm really doing myself up I'll contour with bronzer and/or blush.

story of my life. but, this is what I think about to reassure myself. did you ever watch gilmore girls? Alexis bledel was portraying a 16 year old as rory at the stat, but she was actually 19. she looks more like 13 in the first season because she has so much puppy fat on her face. however it's only by the 4th or 5th season (when she was 20 in the show, and 24 in real life), that she began to lose the puppy fat on her face and had a much more defined face shape. she did lose a bit of weight too, but not tons.

I guess a good hair cut could flatter your face shape, have you tried contouring, that could make your features seem more defined, its definitly worth checking out on youtube.
