They look like mine, and I'm 33.

Hope this is good news...

Ok, hmm, well they look a little bit mine and I'm 45, but I'm not a crone.

Does this help? :)

I'd say you were in your mid to late twenties

I'd guess mid 40s. I don't think your hands look old - just a little pale.

Thanks MrsBungle I'm halfway through painting them and it occurred to me my hands look somewhat older than the rest of me. It's Essie All Lacquered Up, the bestest red ever. That's only one coat!

Anyway, I think they look mid-40s too but I'm only 30 Angry

I'm guessing they're going to look like this by the time I'm 50?

When I was 15 my charming godmother told me I had the hands of a 30 year old :(

I'd say mid 30's. but it's difficult to tell. I can't understand this obsession with hands. Though Madonna's are totally awful. Good excuse not to exercise!

Vivienne I hadn't noticed many other people have an obsession with hands? I do though, prob because I'm obsessed with nail varnish and I would like beautiful hands to go with it.

Btw, my name is not meant to indicate that I think people in their mid 40s are or look like crones Grin

There's nothing wrong with your hands. And you're right not many people have an obsession with hands. But I only meant I think it's not very important. I'd rather have lovely hair or face but not that bothered about hands.

I've just tried to take a picture of my hands; it's surprisingly difficult to get a decent shot!

I'm 27 and they look very like mine!

To be fair Vivienne I would choose new hair or a new face over new hands!
