You can do so much with your face, but hands don't lie. They always show their age.
You can tell I put my skincare on the back of my left hand versus my right straight out of the applicator before I apply to my face.

If you are in your mid-30s, you're likely on the cusp of sun protection being part of your routine young. Any SPF helps, of course, but the college interns and recent grads at work are all good about wearing SPF and then reapplying in the afternoon in a way that wasn't talked about when I was their age. I remember going on vacation with some friends when I was 25 and I was the only one who brought daily SPF!
I suspect we'll see that difference pretty starkly as the generations age.
Not the political article itself, and of course move it to another more appropriate forum to ask this, but not sure if it's just me, but looking at her, she looks wayyyyyyy more like 57 than 37! Am I just crazy?
you must be a guy. Who never saw a woman without makeup.
She has no wrinkles. Just no even skintone because no make up on it.
First, makeup and lighting make a massive difference on film. Many actresses look very different waking up in the morning than after applying all of their make-up. Movie lighting is carefully designed as well.
Some people look older than their age and some look younger.
I have always felt that the popular kids in high school who physically matured quickly, were also going to look aged more quickly, while the unpopular kids who looked too young would keep younger looking for life. The late bloomers got the later pay off.
DNA is a heck of a thing. Not everybody looks their age. There is a wide discrepancy. Some of looking old is maintanance and taking care of yourself but you can't fight your DNA.
I have seen 20 year old girls that have what I call a "grandma face". They are young girls but their faces just look old. I don't mean wrinkled, but just kind of grandma shaped. It just is what it is. You can't fight your DNA.

Yes, I remember a girl from when I was that age who I always thought it would be easy to see being 40. She was stocky in build, though not fat, and she had a round pumpkin face and short hair. It was easy to picture her middle-aged.

Oh definitely... I'm embarrassed to say that I didn't start really using sunscreen until my late 20s and I still didn't use it often enough. This summer, I developed some melasma on my forehead and it really made me take sunscreen more seriously... Even if I'm just walking to the grocery store, I will at least put sunscreen on my face.

You don't know what you don't know! I found myself this summer at the beach in what I considered a good level of protection - huge hat, sunglasses, linen shirt, tons of sunscreen - and found myself considering if I should buy a rashguard. So many of the other women at the beach were swimming with long sleeves on!! And most of the kids. It's a whole different world than when I was a kid or even in my 20s. Sure, we wore sunscreen, but no physical barriers.
One of my old student workers last year told me she wore sunscreen even if she didn't plan on going outside and used a mist meant to counteract blue light. I asked my dermatologist and she said that was a good idea and what she did. Could have knocked me over with a feather! Now I keep both sunscreen and blue light-specific spray at my desk at work, too.
I'm 34 and just starting to get some little sun damage discoloration right above my cheekbones in an area that I think I must miss with sunscreen since it's so close to my eyes (my eyes burn and water so easily!). I think it's a little sliver that my sunglasses miss, too.
I have a friend who wears long sleeves and pants to the beach...She's fair and worried about sun damage... and she doesn't want to keep reapplying sunscreen. That's just too many clothes for me for the beach..lol.. I think I would get too hot... I'd rather just keep reapplying sunscreen.
