Yeah. Could be the art-style. RWBY is based on anime, and it's no surprise that women in anime often look younger than they truly are.

Heck, I even saw an anime where a 60+ years old woman looked like a 10 years old girl. No, I'm not kidding. But in RWBY, in some cases it can be justified. Monty said Cinder uses tons of makeup to look young.
