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

Late 40's/ early 50's I'd say.

panicstationsready · 24/05/2020 14:48

I guessed about right - early 50s. To me you look your age. Which is fine. I don't understand the craving for people to look younger than their age, why? What difference does it make how old you look (unless your job depends on looking young). You look lovely!

Oh 52, sorry 🤪
I am leaving now 😆

I find mumsnetters always guess about 10 years older for some reason, I think this deliberate. I'm tempted to do one of these myself as I know I look younger than I am but no doubt I would probably get ridiculous responses Grin. To me you look late 40's actually and you are very attractive.

AlexisCarringtonColbyDexter · 24/05/2020 14:50

I's say early 60s

MrsBlue4 · 24/05/2020 14:50

58

NameChangeNugget · 24/05/2020 14:51

A very lovely late 50’s?

Smallgoon · 24/05/2020 14:51

51 imo

ShredMeJillianIWantToBeNatalie · 24/05/2020 14:52

Mid 50s but you could’ve used a better photo I think! Too far off and from under your face does you no favours I suspect.

Sharkyfan · 24/05/2020 14:52

50?
But I wouldn’t be that surprised if it was 45 or 55 tbh

rowrowrowyaboat · 24/05/2020 14:52

55

StoppinBy · 24/05/2020 14:52

Late 40's, maybe very early 50's.

JRUIN · 24/05/2020 14:52

57?

3luckystars · 24/05/2020 14:52

I was going to say 47. You look good.

VettiyaIruken · 24/05/2020 14:52

I'd say 50s.
You look fab.

IncrediblySadToo · 24/05/2020 14:53

Skipping right to the end in case you've already said.

I'd guess at 52, but you look lovely. Yes, slightly 'lived in' but in a good way. You look friendly, happy, but also intelligent, calm & sensible, with a definite hint of fun & sexy.

I make snap judgements, but I'm seldom wrong.

ShredMeJillianIWantToBeNatalie · 24/05/2020 14:53

I mean, I could select two photos where I think I look like there’s 10 years difference Grin.

maddiemookins16mum · 24/05/2020 14:53

Late 50s, early 60s.

Lsquiggles · 24/05/2020 14:53

45? Smile

icansmellburningleaves · 24/05/2020 14:53

Mid fifties. You look lovely. Your skin is great.

GeorginaEstonia · 24/05/2020 14:54

I think you look your age, I guessed early 50s. But you look really happy in that photo and that was the first thought I had. I think you are pretty.

thedancingbear · 24/05/2020 14:54

A well-preserved 110

Sixlifetimesinone · 24/05/2020 14:55

@firsttimemum30 Go for it! Post a photo and ask your age!

It’s kind of useful because people’s responses can prompt you to make good life changes. For example I have lines because I definitely sunbathe too much and I should change that, maybe that’s why people are guessing I’m 60 when I’m 52 this year, so that’s helpful to me.

50-something

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 24/05/2020 14:57

OP is off drowning herself in a bottle of vodka because, in reality, she's 25. Grin

Only joking OP and FWIW I think you look lovely.
