Estrogen generally will add a layer of subcutaneous fat - a thin layer of fat under the skin.
It won't add it, it will thicken it. Every human has it.

do you think it will make my face more feminine cuz i already look that way lol. will female hormones make my face more masculine? i am slightly chubby and i dont want my face to look more chubby. also i read somewhere that female hormones add more fat to the lower face. is this true, because that doesnt make sense. males have more fat in their lower face.
another question, do females have healthier skin than males? even females who dont use skin products every day? i know females have longer lifespans, but females have way fairer skin than males the same age.
It will feminize it and will prevent further effects of hormones which will make it more masculine.
It adds fat to the cheeks, not much to the lowest face (might even take quite a bit from there)
Women usually have softer, brighter skin than men, as well as a better texture:
* Women skin is thinner and more sensitive - this makes it brighter and your sensations to touch heightened.
* The thicker underlying layer of fat helps the softness, as well as the reduced skin layers which removes the coarseness.
It is actually said that men's skin ages more gracefully, due to the thick layers it is more resistant to wrinkles, sun radiation and damage. Yet most people agree, a female skin is much better looking. A man's skin protection (coarseness, thickness) is what damages the skin appearance and contributes to it looking "rough" and masculine.
Another thing is that men skin is more oily and the blood vessels are different (changes on hormones) between men and women, this also contributes to pretty/rough feminine/masculine look.
