When did you start to notice that you'd aged?

[pinklite]

I'm turning 27 next week, which obviously I know is not old but I've just looked at myself in the mirror whilst I was doing my skin care and I'm already noticing more lines and creases! Especially around the eye area 😬

I'm dreading aging more and am starting to think about getting some Botox.

At what age did you start to notice?

Mid 30s. Not that I looked particularly old but I realised those lines on my forehead were there to stay and a few grey hairs were creeping in.

I'm nearly 68, never had any "work" of any kind done, and I think I look pretty good for my age. Lines and wrinkles of course, but I haven't sagged round my face or developed jowls or a turkey neck. Good genes from my dad help, also No7 serum and cream, not sunbathing, lots of tea!

But the best facelift of all is a smile, and with years of practice I can now keep one plastered on my face, even when I'm not thinking about it.

Around menopause so about 50. My secret weapon is I’m mixed race. The massive diverse gene pool plus a Father who had amazing skin and culturally being raised to avoid exposing myself to the sun. I also inherited Mothers very high cheekbones.

Until then I looked really much younger I do still look younger but not the huge amount I used to. My favourite was when I was 40 and a student asked me what A levels I got as assumed I was another first year undergraduate, I was a member of staff.
