Indulge me please - how old do I look to you?

People tell me (unprompted) I don't look my age but I'm never sure whether they are being polite or if not what age they think I am. How old would you have said I look? My pic is on my profile and I'm wearing tinted moisturizer if that helps.

I think having a big age gap between me and DH makes me a bit conscious about it Blush

SlainteBooyFeckingHoo · 16/03/2011 23:19

SlainteBooyFeckingHoo · 16/03/2011 23:19

PS spiralqueen - should think not bothering with make-up just makes your skin look younger and better - it's not great for skin, except if includes SPF for day, and can often make people look a lot older.

PS My DH is also younger than me and everyone assumes we're same age.

jackthehatmcvitie · 16/03/2011 23:21

between 27 and 41. I'll plump for 34.

toomanyprojects · 16/03/2011 23:31

BIMBLEBERRY · 16/03/2011 23:33

40

caramelwaffle · 16/03/2011 23:33

Korma - on Very first look, I'd say 12.

On closer inspection - mid/late twenties.

MadameDefarge · 16/03/2011 23:33

toomany, 35?

MadMommaMemoo · 16/03/2011 23:34

MadameDefarge · 16/03/2011 23:35

I'm the one on the right. I worry that curls are rather aging

caramelwaffle · 16/03/2011 23:35

SlainteBooyFeckingHoo · 16/03/2011 23:36

MadameDefarge · 16/03/2011 23:36

Memoo, you have that look of an up all night with baby 30something.

but up all night with babies does awful things to us.

we often regain our vavavoom later on down the line!

caramelwaffle · 16/03/2011 23:37

MadMommaMemoo · 16/03/2011 23:37

And when I say will somebody do me I mean guess my age, I'm not looking for a shag!

planestrainsautomobiles · 16/03/2011 23:38

toomany around 42 - but a very small photo so a little tricky

MMM can't see any photos for you

This is a very dangerous thread!

MadMommaMemoo · 16/03/2011 23:39

caramelwaffle · 16/03/2011 23:39

Memoo 29-32 but only because you look tired in that picture otherwise.. 28

winnybella · 16/03/2011 23:40

MadameDefarge · 16/03/2011 23:40

Amazing what a good night's sleep will do!

Valpollicella · 16/03/2011 23:41

You've got 15 mins people, it comes off the profile then Grin

winnybella · 16/03/2011 23:41
