How old do you think I look?

I live abroad and have aged a bit over the last two/three years. Always looked really young for my age when I lived in the U.K., but have started to notice how I'm ageing a lot more around my eyes and 11 lines. DP thinks I have dysmorphia and it's all in my mind. I feel like I'm ready for a bit of Botox, as I've been feeling a lot less confident about my appearance. To settle the argument, please tell me how old you think I am. Both pics are without filter and one with just mascara, a bit of concealer to hide the dark shadows and eyebrow pencil. The bathroom one is before I had a shower, with just eyebrow pencil.

I'd say around 40 but please don't think you need to do anything to your face! You have great bone structure and lovely clear skin. I agree with your DH, no work needed.

Some of the posters here are hilarious, late 50s, I mean as if 😂😂

shrumps · 01/09/2021 20:35

These threads never go well, and what is it about us women that do this to ourselves???
You'd never see this on a men's forum. You are beautiful OP, don't worry about the number.

Silverparting · 01/09/2021 20:35

38-40.

Please don't but that poison in your body. I bet your husband won't be getting Botox!

NotStayingIn · 01/09/2021 20:35

Early 40's? For what it's worth I think you look beautiful.

Palsy · 01/09/2021 20:35

So - you're 58?

Have you got eyes? Have you honestly not noticed that you look at least 15 years younger than 95% of 58 year old women on the planet?

merryhouse · 01/09/2021 20:35

I'd say 40.

@Tempusfudgeit "11 lines" are those two little frown lines between your eyebrows.

@Concernedaboutgranny Personally I'd like to get rid of those two little frown lines because they make me look grumpy. Which I'm not.

ThisBeTheName · 01/09/2021 20:36

Mid to late forties.

Chickychickydodah · 01/09/2021 20:36

40s

fizzyandbusy · 01/09/2021 20:37

I'd say early 30s.

Foreverinthenineties · 01/09/2021 20:38

42

SummaLuvin · 01/09/2021 20:38

these threads are pointless.

10% will be honest
70% will shave a good few years off their guess as they don't want to offend
20% will guess outrageously high because these threads are annoying

so you won't actually know the truth at the end

my personal guess is 44, might be a touch high as I'm influenced by the fact on these threads the pictures chosen are purposely flattering and if you are concerned enough to start a thread you probably aren't that young.

You look fine and skin looks great.
Nobody ‘needs’ Botox imo.

No, I was joking to that poster. I'm definitely not 58 😂

WeirdCouncil · 01/09/2021 20:39

Do the 11 lines chop off people's eyebrows?

Thinking 38.
Please don't get Botox or whatever - you're already beaut Smile

Oblomov21 · 01/09/2021 20:40

What's the point?
Get the Botox. Or better still, don't. You seem obsessed.

You look fine. Please don't belittle body dysmorphia because it's serious and my closest friends ds had just announced he's trans.

Putthekettleon2021 · 01/09/2021 20:41

I would say 42. You look lovely and definitely do not need to bother with botox!

YorkiesForAll · 01/09/2021 20:41

I reckon 33?
