What Causes a Face to Look Old

[Anonymous]

Yellow teeth

It’s skincare and sun damage but also hair color. As your skin changes, the same hair dye from your twenties no longer works. Too many women with over saturated and flat hair color.

Menopause
Fat loss at the temples
sagging jowls
yellow teeth
narrow, thin lips

For example, Megan Fox, Nikki Reed, and Nina Dobrev all look so old when they hit 30. Even though they have no wrinkles. If you compare to photos when they were early 20s the difference is pretty incredible. Is is the skin looking tired? Or just hollowness.

It’s scaring me, since I always look older than my age and I only have a few years left until I’m 30.

Even when I was only 18, people thought I was 25. I think it has to do with having hollow under eyes and a narrow Caucasian face structure. Megan Fox has quite a long, narrow, manly face and sharp features. Which seems to make faces look mature and not age well.

Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman both looked young in their late 20s, but now they look so so old. It’s scary. But Mila Kunis had a round face. So my theory about narrow faces looking worse is probably wrong. I did notice she has heavy eyelids and sunken eyes, which seem to age worse than less deep set eyes.

Meanwhile Sofia Vergara looks pretty amazing and is like 50. Is it because she has a wider face. Idk, cause Shakira also looked good in her 40s and she has paler skin and a narrow face

You know that people get plastic surgery , right?

Narrow face, pointy nose and thinner/flatter lips always read 'old' to me, even on beautiful women.

eg, Nikki Taylor, Hailey Beiber, Nikki Reed.

Dark shadowed eyes look old/haunted.

eg, Emily Ratahdlakhgeksi and Lily Aldridge

(all beautiful women)

A lot of the aging actually happens at 18,19 and 20. Some of the volume in the face starts to fade just ever so slightly. A model can be stick thin at age 18, and still have an appearance of healthy and almost chubby cheeks. Kathy Ireland would be a great example if you look back at her earliest modeling days. However, as you progress into your 20s, the natural volume loss along with loss when you lose weight creates and “older”, or at least more mature appearance. All of the anti-aging techniques that we use such as Botox and fillers, technically take away a wrinkles and replace volume but for some reason do not genuinely make us look younger. Your Megan Fox example is a great one. She still looks great in clothes etc. I guess, but she looks her age-35. I think the key to looking younger post 30 is just remaining thin because it’s not natural to do so we associate thin with being young.

a) yeah, people age and look different in each decade of life
b) they still look amazing
c) the best thing you can do for your skin in your late 20s is always always always wear sunscreen

I was just going to say = imagine that your fear is looking like Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman as they age.

Oh sweetie.

Hailey Bieber is remarkably beautiful. However, she cannot stay 18 forever. She looks beautiful for her age which is 20 something. I think for her, since her beauty was never directly associated with “young” features -ones associated with youth- she will likely age really well. And always remain stunning. I know she’s quite controversial on DC urban moms but if we’re being honest, she is stunning and gorgeous.

Um, Mila Kunis looks great...

OP, I'm 30 and was never particularly vigilant about the sun and the pandemic/motherhood aged me a lot, but I still get mistaken for college age regularly. A lot of it staying thin/fit and dressing in a way that isn't aging.

To answer your question: jowls, 100%. And thinning lips. And too much makeup.

Beauty is so subjective. I am neither for nor against HB, but I do not find her attractive at all.

A guy I know who went to medical school was often confused as a college aged guy, even though he was 30. For him he says it was because he was at the gym in the middle of the day and doing things that most adults who are 30 don’t do because of their jobs. Also, because he was perpetually in school, he was dressing really “young” ( sweats, etc.) that were conducive to his lifestyle.

I suppose the same can apply to women.

Straight guy I know once told me Natalie Portman really isn’t that pretty and that she must appeal to women more than men. He pointed out that he thought she has short legs. He called her a less attractive version of Keira Knightley, who he said was in fact stunning. This was many years ago by the way.

I don't dress super young or do non-adult-ish things but I do have roundish cheeks. Makes the face youthful. I hate them but buccal fat removal that everyone's doing lately is so aging.

She's attractive with her tall, healthy body and skin. She is the picture of youth, which is attractive. But I wouldn't say conventionally pretty facial features. Her hair is also thin. She'll eventually have the same aging scenario as Sarah Jessica Parker, but with less fashion and femininity to cover it.

Hailey Baldwin Bieber is considered “very beautiful” on pink mirror; a very beautiful rating is rare. She has a 9.1 out of 10 score- this is almost impossible to get on pink mirror. I like pink mirror as a gauge because it’s completely objective not subjective.
