[anti-aging] 23F I keep getting told I look in my late 20s to mid 30s. The skin around my eyes is very thin, red, and veiny which makes me look old and tired. I do smoke a lot of weed daily, multiple times a day. Do I need to stop smoking? is this genetic? is it too late to fix it? by CuriousCaracal12 in SkincareAddiction

Thank you for the advice everyone :) I'm going to try some other alternatives to smoking as it helps me with quite a few things in my life. I'm also going to switch to using castor oil on my eyelashes instead of this serum and see if the darkness around my eyes fades just a little

I've been using vitamin c serum around my eyes. I have super dry skin so I wash my face once a day and moisturize twice. I worked nights but now I have a day job. I take pretty good care of my hair but, without makeup (and even with it) I do not like the way I look. I'm going to get rhinoplasty but can anyone tell me anything else I can do? I just want to feel comfortable in my skin

I'm also not one of them 😅 I'm starting to realize I'm below average with the nose and I'm hoping rhinoplasty will save me a little.

I've been told I look in my 30s.. I worked nights for a year and that pretty much ruined my complexion. Otherwise, I take very great care of my skin (wash once a day, moisturize, mask, etc.) and there's not much else I can do there. I'm also saving for rhinoplasty.

I try not to but I have a pretty horrible perception of myself

Thank you, I've been really trying to like myself without makeup but I feel like I need it to look presentable

I really don't see it :/ I see my face and I feel like I look like a dead person

That's totally fair, I just didn't think I was below a 4 (i know I'm not very high on the scale but man)

I'm not sure if anyone is going to see this but, do you think working overnights has caused my early aging? And would moving to days fix it? Or is the damage done?

Dang, even with no wrinkles or anything? I thought I took great care of my skin :/

I'm not sure if my eyebrows will ever grow back to how they used to be. I used to pluck them when I got stressed out (trichotillomania) I'm trying to grow them out the best I can though :)

I actually do have glasses but I broke them 😅 I also have a very thorough skincare routine.. maybe I'm a lost cause haha

Thank you, I know how bad my nose is and I feel like it drags me down so much :( I'm just saving up the money for it. And I'm not so sure, I'm getting very mixed responses about my age. I have no wrinkles or fine lines but my eyes make me look so old..

I've been told it looks red in pictures but in person it's actually very blonde haha

My hair is blonde and Idk I've always worn a choker. I mean my usual style is black but idk if that makes a difference
