I look my age. I have to because my age is what my age is. Savvy? That said, however, my household mirrors say that I am at least 50 years younger then my birth certificate says.
I’m the world‘s worst judge of age, so I have no idea. People are always surprised when I tell them my kids are 40 & 36. Or when I say I’ll be retiring when I turn 65 next May. I attribute it to not smoking or drinking, dying my hair & mostly good genes. I will say, after 45 years as an RN working in a hospital, my hands look older than my face, lol.
Oh, yes, the hands (and forearms). I have grown a whoppin' bunch of those sun spots/age spots/large freckles--whatever they are called-- just in the last year or two. Jeez.

I've never really thought about it but my dermatologist (several different ones over the years) always comments how good my skin is with no wrinkles. I always had dry skin so I'm always putting lotion on and no I don't wear sunscreen as I have an allergy to it. My dermatologist says she doesn't believe I don't wear sunscreen and I sleep in my makeup, lol. I'm 54. I do use a retinol lotion on my hands which I think helps. I have always drank a ton of water too.
Honestly, I used to always pass for being younger. I had cancer 7 years ago and ironically I think I look 7 years older than I am. Oh well. At least I’m still around to look old.
I just turned 60, but due to chronic health conditions I think that I look 80, and I feel like I’m 90. Edited to add: This photo was taken at my sons wedding in May.
My age, 53. I used to look way younger than my real age, but after my hysterectomy in 2016 my body just flipped the Aging Switch. I also stopped dying my hair a few years ago and am very salt-and-pepper now. Eh. I don't care much.
Lots and lots of hair in my family. No male pattern baldness, no thinning for the women. I'm lucky in that my hair is coming in a very pretty silver instead of dull gray. My sister is only just about three years younger than me, doesn't dye her hair at all and has no gray or silver. She takes after my Mom's dad, who had a gorgeous head of caramel-colored curly hair until the day he died.
I don't know how old I look, but I do know still in my 30's not paying attention to the TV commercials, my kindergarten daughter at the time said, Dad, you need that. What is that sweetie, looking up from my magazine. She swipes at the corner of my eyes, it's for your wrinkles!
