Asians looking younger than their age

[wuxian]

I had a somone ask me what I do to look so young. (I'm 24 yrs old, but I can still pass of as a 12 yrs old.) I didn't know what to say. I didn't do anything in praticular. Maybe it because I don't get stress out easily. Or may be Asian just have very good genetics genes when it comes to aging. I sure many of you find yourself in the save situation. Do you guy do anything I particular to looks young?

I know what you are talking about, i think Asian people age slower then other race. Just compare a 30yrs white woman to a 30 yrs Asian woman, i bet that Asian woman will look why younger. Its just the way asians are.

Eatting healthy will look younger and live longer!!!!! White and Black usally eat all junk[burgers, fries, candy, subway etc] food where-as Asian eat bit of everything so we're healthier

Yes, I agree. When I told my international friends my age, they seem to be so surprised. In contrast, I found that most Arabic people tend to look older than their real age!

[SkineePanda]

yes, i get mistaken for some years younger than I am. It's good to anti-age but at the same time the "omg, I'm already in my 20's, what the hell have I done so far?" mentality picks up.

I get mistaken for a teenager pretty often as well... and I often misjudge non-Asian people's age as well. I suppose it is in the genes for some of us, since I do have friends(Asians) who look older than they actually are.

1. makeup
2. sun exposure

[strife_au]

too much fast food, more western girls smoke too, more druggies as well

Exaggerated expressions increases wrinkles. Sun plays a huge part.
