First, reset your Face ID, by turning it off, then back on. If you have ever allowed your cousin to unlock your phone with the Passcode while they are looking at it, then the Face ID data is being updated to reflect any appearance changes. That is how it is supposed to work as people's looks do change. Don't give your Passcode to anyone else.
