How old do I look?

You can be honest. I know everyone says this, but people really do tell me a lot that I look younger than my years. What do you think?

Homeschooling over lockdown might have aged me just a tad.

Your hair looks a million times better than mine OP. I don't know how you do it! Well jells. Envy

Mind you, lockdown and homeschooling was hard on all of us, you don't look that badly affected. Two days of Mathswatch and I looked worse than you!

I mean, like, you have a great complexion but I'm a bit, like, concerned that you look hollow behind the eyes, almost dead like a cereal killer. Are you okay? Maybe someone could recommend an eye surgeon or something. Apart from that,perfect.

Hmm. You do look a tad dehydrated, how's the colour of your wee?

I am a bit sweaty. Maybe it's time for a shower.

Have you considered highlights? Lovely for autumn.

God these posts are about a million times more tedious than actual 'how old do I look posts' (which I actually don't mind).

But mocking other posters by repeating a tired joke thats been posted a dozen times before is just dull.

I think if you did your hair differently and wore a 'pop' of lipstick you'd look about 23.

BusySittingDown · 21/09/2020 15:40

@Veterinari But you read it and decided to post? Grin

ArticulateYourLife · 21/09/2020 15:45

@Veterinari I quite agree

OP is a plagiarist

Alloftheboys · 21/09/2020 15:52

OMG babes! Are you wearing the new younique lipstick?

roguecat · 21/09/2020 15:55

Try using a bit of Olay, you could look even more younger/stunning. I am well jealous, you look a lot better than me. Smile

user127819 · 21/09/2020 15:58

I didn't know Mumsnet allowed minors to post photos of themselves?!

flourbroach · 21/09/2020 15:59

Where did you get your cardigan?

liverbird10 · 21/09/2020 16:03

Ignore the haterz, you're beautiful.

Laiste · 21/09/2020 16:10

You're so so beautiful OP! I wish i looked even a little bit like you.

I guess .... 31? Or even late 20s.

anotherpersontoday · 21/09/2020 16:15

Mid to late 30's? I'm 42 and I think you look younger than me. You have lovely skin and a beautiful smile.

netsybetsy · 21/09/2020 16:17

Mid-20s - what lovely bone structure!

So you’re saying it was a tired joke when you made it? Grin

I bet you're the one who's been leaving all those nasty reviews for my motel on TripAdvisor.

What’s wrong with your eyes OP, they make me feel queasy for YABU and very vain.
