Trap help.

Okay, well i' a 19 year old guy who loves to crossplay, and 'trap' people. I've even 'traped'
people when i wasn't in cosplay.
The problem is that due to me having already gone through puberty so i feel like i've lost some of my looks. I'd like some tips to be at least a bit better at it. any help would be wonderful~!<3

I didn't start cosplaying, let alone crossplaying, before I hit my adolescent phase (which was when I was around 12 years old), but I have done some research on makeup for a cuter appearance for the younger characters I am planning to crossplay as (i.e. junior high/middle school age) and found that eye makeup is a crucial part of doing this. It seems like you're not using eyeliner or mascara in these photos, so you might want to look into that and perhaps using some light-colored eyeshadow. Highlighting and contouring might help to provide a more youthful appearance as well. Contouring the edges of your nose to make it appear slimmer and the jawline to make your face appear rounder will really make a difference.

Some of the tools he's using will help, but you can get by with a basic set (I suggest a blender, dome, and eyeliner brush). Also look into using a little bronzer or blush on TOP of the cheek bone (Underneath will make you look more masculine, it's a trick F>M crossers use). Lip gloss or tinted chap stick will help a lot, too.

You have a really good natural base to work with and I think that you'll be able to trap people very well. To modify your body shape, if you're comfortable with skirts, try pumpkin skirts.

If you're not comfortable with that, you're doing the right thing by wearing clothes with pockets to make your hips look wider.
