Feel Unattractive

Yes, I know I sound vain. I'm in my early 50s and I looked ok in my late 40s. I have suddenly aged. I hate seeing myself on Zoom meetings.

I get my roots dyed, have my eyebrows waxed and cleanse and moisturise. I use an eye cream.

Despite this I have wrinkles under my eyes and smile lines. My teeth are yellow.

I had a go on a dating site and got very few messages. I used to get quite a few in my 40s. I suppose attractive men my age can get younger.

Can anyone relate to feeling like a car crash or have any beauty tips?

Well I’d get your teeth whitened - yellow teeth aren’t a good look regardless of your age.

I don’t think smile lines or normal under eye wrinkles make anyone look unattractive as such - but if you really think they do and you’re unhappy with how you look generally then I would go and get a refresh on your hair colour and cut, make up and skin care before you start on tweakments.

Get recommendations for a hairdresser and a local make up artist (or Bobbi brown counter makeovers are good).

Also put a filter on zoom..
