How Old Do I Look ? (photo included)

No editing on photo, took in natural daylight. Bit blurry but hopefully can still see all the natural skin lines, etc

I’ve had plenty of lockdown thoughts about being grateful for my relatively ok health (asthma and very minor heart condition) and future travel ambitions so just wanted to know if I look as ‘lived-in’ as I feel.

I don’t wear any makeup/foundation/tinted moisturiser etc , just mascara.

I’m not sensitive about my age so be as brutal as you like Grin

I'd say somewhere between my mum and dad's ages so 49-56.

SouthernComforts · 24/05/2020 14:26

Early 50's.

Whatever age you are OP you have beautiful eyes and very nice shaped lips! I'd love to get my hands on you for a very subtle make-over (soft smokey eyes and a touch of colour on mouth) and with those features you'd be a very striking woman. Please note I'm NOT saying OP isn't attractive in her own right as she is (and it's great she's obviously comfortable and confident to post to the world). I just love playing with make-up and, IMHO, enhancing.

ginlover7 · 24/05/2020 14:28

I'd say late 50's early 60's

I’ve never done one of these before, just asking because I’m curious if I look as lived in as I feel.

I’m happy with my age because I’ve done a lot in my life, but still want to do more.

For some background, I’ve had my children late (at 40), lived through a 7 year extremely violent relationship, and travelled (hitch hiked) through North Africa and Ibiza in my 20s and 30s between jobs. I’ve also thought I’m a right minger Grin but in a very matter of fact way. I’m not photogenic at all and always considered myself ugly since a child, but I don’t need to be reassured otherwise, I’m happy with how I look at this age.

Lockdown has just made me grateful for so many things, and prompted me to make more practical decisions about my future which were formerly just ‘pipe dreams’.

late 40s?

Thescrewinthetuna · 24/05/2020 14:30

I’d say about 50. You’re beautiful

Larkspurandhollyhocks · 24/05/2020 14:30

So what age op???

Bunnymumy · 24/05/2020 14:30

You could be anything between 48 and a young looking 60. Let's go with 48 lol.

thestarvingcaterpillar · 24/05/2020 14:31

52 you look good on it OP!

Spacecudet · 24/05/2020 14:31

I think you look beautiful, and could be anywhere between 45 and 60.

Sixlifetimesinone · 24/05/2020 14:31

Thanks everyone, bit of lighthearted fun. It’s nice to read so many lovely comments though that’s a bonus Thankyou Flowers

I’ll be 52 this year.

When is the big reveal?

diddl · 24/05/2020 14:32

mid-late 50s

Pinkvici22 · 24/05/2020 14:32

I’d say late 50s, early 60s. I’m terrible with ages though and even with my own family if I didn’t know I couldn’t tell...my mum is early 70s and most people would put her late 50s.

GetOffTheTableMabel · 24/05/2020 14:32

About 55. You look comfortable and confident.

Delta1 · 24/05/2020 14:32

Ah. I was coming on to say 47/48 Smile

SummerHouse · 24/05/2020 14:33

X post. You are a lovely 51 op.

MonkeyToesOfDoom · 24/05/2020 14:33

Over 40 under 60.
Whatever age, you're very far away from minger.

Notajogger · 24/05/2020 14:33

I think you look friendly!
57-62.

Asiama · 24/05/2020 14:34

I was going to say 45 but saw your update. You are beautiful and for 52 you look great!

MuthaClucker · 24/05/2020 14:34

I said early 50’s.

You’re not a minger at all. Dear God, I currently look like a face drawn on a thumb!
