"I look 10 years younger"

[Anonymous]

In a swimsuit with a hat and sunglasses I look 10 years younger, but only because I have kept in shape and no one can see my face

I think part of it is how I carry myself, how I dress, my haircut, being short and petite, and generally not being frumpy looking which most women can avoid. The only thing that I did right when I was younger was being religious about moisturizing my skin, not tanning excessively, and not smoking. The strange thing is I do think I look younger without makeup on. Maybe I'm just not wearing makeup right but I definitely look older with it on.

Most people do.

Screw makeup then!

Like the PP said above, this is good but not great for today's generation. For reference, I am 35 and I have worn high SPF sunscreen and used high strength prescription retinoids on my face daily since, no joke, 12.

OK, but you're not going to drag someone older than you for not having had access to those things, right?

I'm not going to "drag" them, but they should probably ask younger people their opinions if they want to spout off about looking 10 years younger. I have had access to that stuff, but a newly 22 year old still doesn't think we're the same age, no matter skin condition. The above is totally minimal prevention it's odd to state that as a reason for looking younger. "Sunscreen since 30" is a low bar.
