  Nobody smokes anymore.

    Gen Z/A is going to look even more youthful with their lower alcohol consumption.

    That’s really what it is. Smoking ages you hard

    I smoke and people still think I’m 10 years younger than I am. 🤷

    Millennials smoked a lot and still do. And the more recent generations have simply moved to vapes.

    So yeah, people still smoke.

  Plastic surgery has gotten better if you’re really only looking at celebrities. I know plenty of non-celebrity millennials that have aged like fine raw milk in a hot sun.

    That buccal fat removal trend is going to age like milk though.

    Also millennials use sunscreen.

      Of course we do. There was that bizarre song in 97 that made sure we never forget to wear sunscreen!

  I just watched Ghostbusters for the first time since I was a kid. Those dudes were like 30 ish. They looked like they were 45-50. I’m like 8 years older than most of them were at the time, and not to blow my own horn, but I think I and my friends look far better than they did at that age.

  There’s probably some survivorship bias going on here. You’re not really going to see pictures of people who have been unattractive their whole lives, I wouldn’t think.

  If there's any trend that way, in the general population, it's because of increased sunscreen use and decreased cigarette use. But, like, I don't know if you'd look at a 40 year old farm worker and think they look young?

  I have no idea who she is. She looks like she’s in her 20s on the left and 35-40 on the right to me. I’m in my mid 40s.

  GenX - I think I look my age but when I tell people my age at work they look so surprised. So to some extent I think people just think, say, 50, looks older than it does. It’s true I don’t look like my mom did at this age (and she wasn’t a smoker) skincare and sunscreen do work. And I work out more. Like the lady in the images, I did look about 25 at 15 but then looked like that for a long time.

  As someone else here said though - if you are looking at celebrities, in general they have also had work done, and Botox, the lady in the picture looks botoxed for sure.

  If you go farther back, most people had harder lives. My maternal grandmother aged faster because her husband beat her; her mom was in the Great Depression, and so on. We complain now because we see how good it could be but it’s still better than the past was.

  No, but they look older than their age when they’re <20

    Yep lol she looks 30 in both photos.

    I’m a baby/tail end millennial and I’ve been assumed to be in my mid 20s for the past 15 years ¯\(ツ)/¯
