I was talking with some friends lately about how old we looked. I got a very wide age range! So we decided I would be brave enough to ask mumsnet!!! Go ahead - I won't be offended!

can I play the "how old am I game"?

lockdownalli · 01/07/2020 17:19

Late 40's Maybe 48?

User24689 · 01/07/2020 17:20

Oh wow! I was going to say you look about my age, which is 35. Yes please spill the details on the cream 🤣

ButterflyOfFreedom · 01/07/2020 17:20

I was going to say 42 - and looking really good for your age!
So I'm surprised you're 50, what's your secret????!

SecretSquirreI · 01/07/2020 17:21

43 - you have great skin.

Delbelleber · 01/07/2020 17:30

Wow I never would've thought 50, I was thinking late 30s.

Reminds me of something my dd said to me, that I look older than my sister, who is 50 and also 15 years older than me Hmm

EveleftEden · 01/07/2020 17:34

You look bloody great for 50!

Minniee · 01/07/2020 17:44

I love this game and you're the only one that has ever looked younger than they are.

Crystal87 · 01/07/2020 18:00

Was going to say early 40s. You don't look 50 at all

toffeeghirl · 01/07/2020 18:02

Jeezus, I was going to say 29. You look fab.
I'm 50 later this year and look itBlush

BreatheAndFocus · 01/07/2020 18:16

I was going to go for 44-46. You have very good skin and a smile always helps you look younger 😊

DariaMorgendorffer · 01/07/2020 18:56

Shock my god op you look incredible!

TimeWastingButFun · 01/07/2020 18:56

TimeWastingButFun · 01/07/2020 18:58

OMG 50! Really you don't look it at all. Unless this is actually your friend, haha!
I'm guessing you don't drink. You look great.

pisspants · 01/07/2020 19:00

ooh wow just saw you have revealed! you are doing really well for 50!!!

Misty999 · 01/07/2020 19:04

Amazing I would have said mid late twenties x

AhBallix · 01/07/2020 19:04

People are asking what the OP's secret is, but I reckon genes play a large part. Staying out of the sun and not smoking are definitely the way to go for wrinkle free skin. But even then, it's not everything. I don't have too many wrinkles at 53 (just a few round my eyes which have been there for years) but, crikey, the shape of my face has started to morph. It looks kind of rectangular, like Spongebob Squarepants. The OP has a youthful jawline and I reckon that's got more to do with good scaffolding (ie bone structure) than good skin - although she does have great skin!

Stripeytopgirl · 01/07/2020 19:07

I was gonna guess 35, you don’t look 50?!!

NiceLegsShameAboutTheFace · 01/07/2020 19:18

I've seen the update but I looked at the pic first and thought around 35. Looking mighty good for 50, girlfriend Smile

Could I draw your attention to all the additional things that you'll need now that you're 50 –according to day time TV:

  • a funeral plan
  • a Saga coach trip
  • a sheltered warden type apartment
  • Tena Lady

TJ17 · 01/07/2020 19:25
