[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even faces without wrinkles look old.

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[/quote]
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.[/quote]
