Wouldn't say I was that great looking in my 20s, but 30's have been pretty well so far.

Men tend to age like fine wine

I've always had a baby face and really good skin quality overall which means now that I'm in my 30s people assume I'm in my early 20s. I shave my head because hair was starting to thin out which makes it super confusing for people. Look older with a shaved head but really smooth/fair skin and a baby face. People usually guess I'm around 25 now. If I could find a product I'm willing to use (no real side affects) to restore my hair I'd still look around 18-19.



As far as skin goes a large portion of it is genetic. Avoiding excess sunlight and/or using sunscreen is a factor. Another major factor I've noticed in terms of retaining youthful glow is keeping the stress down and don't smoke or consume too much alcohol or 'substances'.



I've never really researched the topic much but the females I know that don't drink or smoke retained their youthful glow a lot longer then those that did. IMO this is one of the reasons why so many girls go down-hill in college. 'Substances' are especially hard on females and can age them 10-15+ years relatively quickly.

I'm about the same. Maybe slightly better since I leaned out.

Unfortunately I was stressed and depressed from 21-24 and I think it showed.

Yeah I got on a week before my 22nd birthday so this june was actually my 5th full year on fin (I also use rogaine foam at the hairline for about 3 years). Ive had no sides and amazing results thus far. Its slightly thickened my hair as well but mostly kept it in tact so I am very happy and hoping it keeps holding for years to come. One thing though is i did have pain (1/10 on the pain scale) in my nuts the first few days after taking it, which my doc said may happen, so it was a sign it was working. Good luck fellow canada brah

Was baby face until 25 I felt I generally look awkward until I started to mature but still look fairly young. I do some volunteer at a college campus and I’ve asked twice if I’m a freshman but most of time get 23. I have notice that lack of sleep takes a toll on me more. If I go more than a few days of 4-6 hours sleep it really shows in my eyes. Hair is still looking good but I never paid attention to it when I was younger so I don’t know if I’m regressing

i'm 38 and look years younger than most people my age but thats because i exfoliate, where sun screen and moisturizers. your face should be fine as long as you maintain healthy skin and keep your bodyfat low.

I was probably better looking in my 20s, but I got laid a lot more in my 30s. There's not always a correlation.

I slayed thru high school and college but I’ve still aged like fine wine as a man with a full head of hair. 39 this month and I still get early 20’s sloots at work trying to bang weekly if not daily. For men it’s just different. The main things are having hair and not becoming too overweight from what I’ve seen in my almost 40yrs here.
This body holding me, be my reminder here that I am not alone.

Yup, its funny how everyone thinks they look younger than their age. If everyone thinks that, then it just means that's what that age looks like.

I can't go facial hair to save my life. Add that to not having a single wrinkle on my face and a full set of hair. I'm on the down slope to 40, i still get carded to buy lottery and people refer to me as kid, even though i'm 10 or more years older than them.

I suppose i'm one of the lucky ones.

Definately grew into my features as I aged as well as having a lower bf% makes my jaw stand out well. I've noticed women are much friendlier and initiate convos compared to when I was younger. Got a couple grey hairs right now but my parents and grandparents have a full head of hair so I'll be joining the silver fox crew when I'm older.

alcohol is the worse offender for aging your looks

just look at women that drink heavily from their late teens to early 20's

I don’t use sunscreen but I use neutrogena sensitive skin moisturizer. It has done wonders for me... skin looks flawless.. every other cream I would put on my face would make it oily and very dry. This is perfect.

I use sunscreen every damn day.

Here's a good spreadsheet of alcohol-free formulas:https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...9qk/edit#gid=0
I’ve been using the pink bottled Biore. Do you think I should switch for winter? How come you switch it?

As for the question. I’ll be 50 in 6 months and still have limbal rings so I think I’m aging just fiiine.

So really it's up to you! If you're not noticing any dryness and you like the finish it gives you, keep it!
Thanks for answering! Hmmmmm I’ve noticed a little more dryness than normal for me but just figured cause weather changing to cold. Still need to get on ordering the Tretinoin. I looked up that sunscreen on amazon and there’s several different color bottles. Is that because they have different ingredients?
