Question

that i am starting to fade !!

Answer 1

Yup, at 33 you're over the hill. Until you get to be 40, then you'll think you're over the hill and wishing you looked as young as you did at 30. Then at 50, you'll think you're over the hill and wished you looked...well, I think you get my point.

I actually started noticing I looked 'older' when I started developing breasts. But, that's not quite what you are asking.

I am 60, and a young man of 36 asked me out the other day (people take me for early 40s). I will be the first to admit I have an arsenal of beauty goos to help, and I do my hair in a youthful manner, and I keep by body trim and toned. But, the key is, I don't act as if I have faded, because I certainly haven't, not inside, anyway.

And, you're not fading, you're morphing. You are starting to develop character. Just start using those anti-aging products to make sure not too much character develops! There is also something about pampering yourself with goos, potions, and lotions that take away the edge of aging, because you know you are doing your best to look your best, every day.

Answer 2

older age doesn't equate being less attractive. Some women look better at 40 then when they were 20. Depends on how she takes care of herself. Some people start feeling old even at 30. it's ridiculous.

Answer 6

I'm 32 and noticed changes about a year or two ago. Just little subtle changes that make you feel so old and like it's the end of the world. I bought this sort of rough washcloth and gently scrub with cetaphil cleanser and rinse with cold water and apply cetaphil lotion and some eye cream and it makes such a huge difference in my skin. I've always been kind of lazy and not washed my face at night, but I do now and it's so much better. I also like to use oil of olay definity serum at night. And if you don't already, drink lots and lots of water. I know you didn't ask for all of this but I thought I'd share my experience. :-)

Answer 7

I always looked young, but I started to look older when I was in my 30's, my feet and hands started looking old first. I would get scaly things on my eyes, and then suddenly I would have skin that was thick over my eyes. Grow old gracefully and with dignity and you will always look pretty. I am 56 years old.

Answer 8

Haha, I'm 16 and I think I just started to look "older"!
When I turned 15, my style changed, I carried myself more elegantly, and I started wearing make-up.
I remember going to work one day and someone asking me," What college do you go to?" and I laughed. She thought I was joking!
I like my youth though :D

Answer 9

my mom hasn't started looking old and she's 45...but she is naturally like that cause of my grandma...she still looks lke she's 30...i would say it's different for every1 depending on when they start to get gray hair and wrinkle. but my greataunt started getting gray hair when she was 25 or so and started wrinkling around 40 so i guess it's dependent on genes. but don't freak out...i'm sure that you look fine and even better if you look confident

happy holidays!
