Please what does it mean when someone says "you don't look your age" is it a compliment or an insult?

It depends. Could be a compliment and could also be an insult. It's either you look older than your age or you look younger than your age.

I can only tell you what the person means specifically, if you tell me your age and show me your current picture

I think there's a difference between, you don't "look" your age, and you don't "act" your age.
