Be honest. How old are you. How old do you look?

I think I looked about mid-20s until I was ~32 and had my first child. I aged at least 5-10 years during that first year of parenthood. I then probably looked about mid/late-30s until ~47, when the stress of working long hours, parenting/schooling kids during the pandemic, and a mild illness made me age rapidly in a short period of time again. Now, I think that I look like a rather haggard 48. Wishing I had the bandwidth to take better care of myself so that I could feel and look better.

It's because around 40 their eyesight starts to decline. Their face in the mirror is blurry.

I'm 60, I still get carded. I must look 25.

I am 56. I could pass for a 46 yr old but since last year, I look like a 56 yr old.

Isn’t this the law? I get carded every where and never thought that I look 20.

I'm 47. I could pass for a solid 46.

43; I think I look 47. I’m healthy, wear sunblock, etc., but a major trauma definitely aged me.

I’m 48 and look it. I could do without the ma’am’s all the time but other than that, it’s all fine.

50 and look it.

^^I should add that I always looked younger up until about 45 years of age.

To the younger ladies - enjoy being told you look young. It doesn't last forever. And so what? Embrace aging.

Asking people to self-assess on this is silly. People are terrible judges of how old they look (and how attractive they are)

Young 40 yr old who looks 21 with perfect vision and a thick full head of lush hair. My 20 something yr old peers all wear glasses or contacts and have thinning hair.

The doctor walked in. She looked at me and refused to do filler. She asked how old I was and I told her. She said you look 38, you have no wrinkles and you have perfect volume.

She literally told me that while she would love to take my money, I should go to Saks across the street and buy some new shoes.

So what made you think you needed filler in the first place?

The honest answer is that I am so afraid that if my face changes the slightest bit, I'll start to look old. Was trying to stay on top of it.
