So, firstly, I recently got glasses, and I want to know if they help me pass, or hinder, or do nothing at all.
<----------With glasses
Without glasses:

Second question: I'm going to try to make myself a facial hair prosthetic. If it works I'll post a tutorial, but I want to know what style I should go for. I was thinking about something like a stylized circle beard, but I'm not sure it'll be realistic seeing as I'm only in 11th grade. :P Anyone have any suggestions on what'd look all right and would make sense with my age?
Thanks!
On the glasses: honestly I think you look more male without. Sorry :(
On facial hair prosthetics: the only realistic facial hair for the overwhelming majority of 11th-graders is a scruffy patchy mess, mostly in the sideburns and goatee area. And fake facial hair is almost universally bad anyway, at least if you intend to be seen from a distance of less than 10 yards. I'd skip it. But if you really want to, go with sideburns, it's reasonably common for young-looking high school boys to be able to grow them. And if you want something on the chin, a soul patch wouldn't seem terribly out of place.
Pass more without glasses, and as for the facial hair, i just dab mascara on my face haha.
I think both look good. With facial hair the best option is to get crepe wool and some gum paste. Chop the crepe wool up very fine and brush it onto your face with a blush brush. A slight sideburn stubble, lip hair, and a beard similar to shaggy from scooby doo would be the maximum amount of facial hair that would look passable.

I put it on a bit thick and had trouble figuring out how to shape it properly.
I already know how I'm going to do it, I was just asking for style suggestions. I think I'm decided now, though - something sorta like this:

Also, I realized most people on the street don't know, much less care, how old I am.
I do think you look more male without the glasses, so if you are trying to pass they don't help you (though I love glasses on people so I wouldn't complain and I think you look attractive :D )
It's hard to know what style of facial hair looks best on someone until you've seen them with some facial hair. I would say the safest bet would be sideburns cause a lot of young men have them because that's usually one of the first things that start to grow, besides a mustache.
You could try the Orlando Bloom deal though; at least it will be easier than attempting a full beard.
Your display picture is more feminine, but I don't think it's just the glasses. (You're wearing a V-neck and your hairline appears more rounded.)
Profile picture does not pass, not sure about the other. Should probably ditch the glasses if you're concerned about it.
