It varied for a number of reasons. Cupid was usually represented as a pudgy little baby boy with wings, while Eros was usually depicted as a young man (also winged).

It should be noted that Eros, as a personification, predates the concept of Cupid as the child of Venus and Mars. In fact, Eros was attached to Cupid - The Greeks saw Eros as a personified concept, not as the child of gods.
