    PS im 15 male 100lbs and about 5"4 or so

    Sounds like thats just the tone of your skin and there is nothing you can do about it. There is the possibility that you may be anemic and need more iron in your diet.
    Why does it bother you? I have really really pale skin and have to say it doesn't bother me.

    You're fifteen. Your face will fatten with time.

    As for the paleness, don't worry about it. You're probably the envy of every emo in your school. That's the kind of thing that no one really notices but yourself.

    I know you say you don't want to wear makeup but would you not try Benefit Benetint? It's just a stain for your cheeks, you only need to dab a tiny drop on and rub it in to put colour into your face... Just an idea

    I suppose as a guy he's opposed to the idea of it.

    Do you freckle?
    Do you play sport? It would build you up physically.

    That's what I thought. Are you getting enough iron in your diet OP?

    Yes! that could possibly be it. I'm anemic and I'm fierce pale.

    but to make yourself less pale, maybe pinching your cheeks? should redden em up a bit. Take up exercise outdoors? i'd say start with a change in diet and see if that helps first.
