Don't draw symbol eyes/nose/mouth like that. squint your eyes draw what you see, and if it helps use image manipulation so you can find better shapes. note using binarization/posterization the eyes/nose/mouth can be abstracted into graphic shapes instead of lines; it omits unnecessary detail, yet still reads well.
by comparison in your drawings:
>the reflected light on the bottom lip is overstated
>the occluded area of the eyeball is overstated
>the lines on the nose are overstated
>the left side (our left) of the face is overstated
overstated meaning too high contrast. generally avoid lines and hard edges for a 'younger' look. your medium doesn't really help, but compare the value gradients on the cheeks/jaw

in terms of form,
for younger skulls, the forehead is more rounded. the plane of the eyebrow ridge should protrude under the corners of that spherical shape. the eyelid should also be more rounded/portruding, and be lighter in value. etc etc you can play spot the difference for yourself.
