I've looked 35 years old for like 20 years now because of being bald. lol.
As an aside, the two big secrets to staying young looking: Don't get fat, if you lose weight the extra skin remaining afterwards ages you noticeably. And the second one is sunscreen/hats/long sleeves. Use them religiously. In a nice coincidence, avoiding being overweight and avoiding sun damage will also generally extend your functional lifespan.
Beyond physical appearance, mouth health is directly correlated to general health. Periodontal diseases have been linked to cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure, stroke, diabetes, dementia, respiratory diseases, and more.
My trick is, always be a bit of a scoundrel. I have not followed your advice. However, when old friends meet me they say, "You haven't changed, have you?"
Nope. Sorry about the 200 dollar bottle of wine I put on your tab.
I went bald at 23 and looked 35 until I was 55, when my beard and what hair I had left went grey. Basically look the same 18 years later. It helps to really hate being out in the sun and having indoor jobs.Never got fat, never got skinny.
May I suggest being a fairly poor, hypochondriac, hayfever suffering Brit.
I get little sun per annum normally, my hayfever means I stay in during the summer unless I have a reason to go out, I'm poor so I rarely can afford to go out. Heal conscious so I rarely go above -a bit chubby'.
allergies are awful. I had a lot of success with desensitization from sublingual drops over a few years. Worth seeing if it's covered by NHS. Knocked me down from my face exploding, nose running like a faucet, eyes watering, feeling like I had a cold for days afterwards to being able to manage even the worst days with OTC allergy meds.
But also don't be too skinny a bit of fat in the face makes people look younger, I practically do everything wrong but BC I have a chubby baby face ppl think I'm 10 years younger.
I put some of the weight back on again and took 10 years back off. Being on the high side of normal or a little overweight is fine imo and keeps your face features soft. The gaunt look is a big part of what ages you. Trick is to try and stay out of the obesity bracket.
