Olay skin advisor how old does it say you look and how old are you

If you put a selfie in to the Olay Skin Advisor does it get your age right.
How old are you and what age does it say you are?
Wondering if it gives a vanity assessment or not

Mine was 50... I'm 57, so I'll take that!

IllDoItButOnlyForTheAttention · 13/06/2022 13:38

Oooh, it put me at 36. I'm 43. Thanks OP, that was fun! Only got a bit of tinted moisturiser and eyeliner on, but admittedly the light isn't bright. Still, I'll take the little boost Grin

Olay website must have had extra traffic last night 😂
Apologies to anyone who has been made to feel bad by it am fairly sure its not accurate.
Definitely don't try the L'Oréal app, it doesn't give an age but gives a score and they are not kind 😂

I got 4yrs knocked off with no makeup, unwashed hair and woeful selfie skills - pretty pleased I look under 40

Wafflefudge · 13/06/2022 13:52

Actually just done the L'Oréal ond properly and it's not too mean, I accidentally used a smiling photo which you aren't supposed to do as they pick it up as wrinkles I guess. With a neutral pick I had good scores on everything except firmness and eyes where I got average for age.

First time it added three years. Second time it was bang on. The only thing I did differently the second time was turning the bathroom light on.

First time added 2 years , second time- in exactly the same location and light deducted 2 years.

Lavapalaver · 13/06/2022 14:37

13 years off me. I think it’s extremely accurate 😄

EllaPaella · 13/06/2022 14:40

It said I'm 38, I'm actually 43 so I'm quite happy with that Smile

bluesky45 · 13/06/2022 14:59

It put me at 30. I turn 30 in 9 days so pretty accurate I'd say! I do however get asked for id all the time for any type of age restricted product including red bull!

BrennieGirl · 13/06/2022 15:09

It was fairly accurate with me.

My sister did it with her 20 month old daughter and it came out at 24 years 😂😂.

riotlady · 13/06/2022 15:11

I got 19 and I’m 29- my skin is good but not that good lol

ArtVandalay · 13/06/2022 15:17

41 - I am 51.

JuneJubilee · 13/06/2022 15:19

First time 5 years younger, should have 'stuck', twisted instead & 6years older.

frankly I've not been well this past few days & aged badly over covid and a life changing accident plus health worries, I'm more surprised it didn't say 90. Or 'corpse'

no cream is going to improve things.

Rosehugger · 13/06/2022 15:22

How do you get it to use a previous photo? Mine would only let me take one.

OceanbreezeSun · 13/06/2022 15:24

I’m 36 and it said I look 38🤣

I will try not to take to heart since in real life, people often think I about 5/6 years younger then I am
runs off to see how much botox is

fossilsmorefossils · 13/06/2022 15:27

I did it twice with different selfies (different lighting) and it knocked 4 and 5 years off. I mostly do get estimated about 5 years younger (due to extra weight in my face, natural fillers eh).

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 13/06/2022 15:32

Mine is exactly my age. I'm happy with that as it's an awful photo and I still look rough from having my baby a couple of months ago. Might try with a nicer photo 😄.

zoopigi · 13/06/2022 16:40

I'm 47...two attempts gave me 54 and 51...not playing anymore

LadyLapsang · 13/06/2022 18:04

It made me 14 years younger and that was with tinted moisturiser and no concealer.

LadyLapsang · 13/06/2022 18:10

Just to add I wear Factor 50 SPF every day.

woopdedoodle · 13/06/2022 18:20

Apparently I look 78!

Handsnotwands · 13/06/2022 18:27

Ok this mornings just woken up bed selfie -10 yrs. This evenings selfie +7 years. It’s been a hard day clearly

Tensmum11 · 13/06/2022 18:39

Mine said 42, I’m 50! I’ll take that, thank you very much!

theyetijumpedoverthemoon · 13/06/2022 18:57

My 6 year old is 24 apparently
