There is beauty in aging gracefully. "Your face is marked with lines of life, put there by love and laughter, suffering and tears. It's beautiful." -Lynsay Sands
I think signs of aging can honestly be so much more attractive. grey hairs, smile lines, crow's feet, wrinkles, blemishes. i think it makes someone look so much more...idk like...inviting? warm? i just really like seeing people who have visibly lived a life.
I’m 30 and here’s my message to the teens and early 20’s out there: EMBRACE the “cringe years” and glow up later!! I look at pics of myself in my teens and early 20’s and so happy with how I look now! Also, aging gracefully should be embraced more. It’s a BLESSING to get older!
As a 20 years old i truly think aging is a blessing there's people that die way to young and that don't even have a chance to age. Aging is such a chance, ofc i'm a little bit scared to age but i'm slowy accepting it
I'm 29, going to be 30 in the summer, and I'm proud of my wrinkles and lines that are forming. To me, they're memories. Times I've laughed, cried, just lived life. Granted I do need to get a basic routine besides soap and water on my face, but I'm not worrying about all this anti aging stuff.
@gwendolynallen3218 That's a nice sentiment, but not at all what I have experienced. Also born with a facial birth defect (like the op mentioned), and I had over 25 faci reconstructive surgeries to try to even just look _"normal."_ Never happened. The surgeon that had since the age of 3 months had no more skills to get me to where I wanted to be, by the time I was 20. When I started working full time and got health insurance, I had several additional reconstructive surgeries. I came to the realization that my particular birth defect will *never go away* even if I had 100 more surgeries. But I'd like to think at least I *_tried,_* and that was in some weird attempt to appease others and not get condemning comments, slurs and disgusted looks. Altering one's face a few dozen times certainly wears on a person. I am close to 60 now, and I couldn't give a sh*t any about what anyone thinks or says. 😁
@@amg9163I'd love to talk to you. You seem like you've lived a lot of life and gone through a lot of unique experiences along the way. I think it's lovely that you are ok with what you're at, though I'm sure getting to this point wasn't linear and there are still good and bad days. Have a great day!
It makes me so sad to see teenagers feeling like they have to use retinol and anti-aging products. Being a teenager is already hard and constantly being told that you need to invest in expensive skincare treatments to look young makes it so much more exhausting.
@@lucilock713 Retinol for teens is probably fine especially considering that, but there are literal 10 year olds using very harsh retinol in their 15 step skincare routine
My concern is if one of these Gen Zs and Alphas (older ones) get pregnant, while taking retinol and having no idea that retinol is contraindicated in pregnancy.
It’s crazy isn’t it? It’s imperative to use good skincare as a teenager as spots etc (my own experience) and every other girls was normal. Fear of aging at this age is sad.
This infuriates me for several reasons: 1. It's performative, not preventative. Other than sunscreen, you're not preventing anything at that age. Cleanser, simple mousturizer, and sunscreen is all you need. 2. The skin care companies are loving this because it's a new market and they are ROLLING in the money. 3. These girls are missing out on the whole "carefree" childhood and teen years. 4. These kids are starting a routine that they'll never be able to stop at such a young age, they're going to be burnt out at a young age. 5. Medical procedures for no reason....I can't even......😡 6. They literally need to touch grass. Roll in the grass, throw a mud pie at their friends....😭
They indeed prevent nothing with anything but sunscreen. Sunscreen, cleanser and moisturizer is all you need at that age. Also, if you use retinols that young, they might not be working as well when your collagen starts slowing down later. Our bodies can get used to every substance we use and develop a tolerance to it. Tretinoin won’t work as well when you are older when you already used it since a very young age. I have seen it in patients who used it for acne since their teens. Yes, they often do look younger in their 30s than others but they also always used sunscreen, because that’s a must with this acne treatment, so that plays a huge role. If you use the tanks before your even at war, you’ll have nothing left later.
And it's just a band-aid. It's going to get worse every year for them. Every birthday will be a painful event. They'll hate themselves more with every year. We're already taught that the number itself is "bad" (for some reason). You know, the "never ask a woman her age" thing already implies that the number is something to be ashamed of. Y'know?
LIFE DOESN'T END AFTER 25! I'm 41 and I look fucking rad! I can say that now too because of the confidence age has brought to me. People SHOULD have self love and confidence because it's a healthy mentality. I don't look 20 but I don't look 40 but even if I did WHO THE HELL CARES?! I take great care of my skin and body and that's healthy, but obsessing over it to the point you mutilate yourself thinking it's somehow a time machine, it's just not necessary! Wisdom comes with age too and that's worth so much more than many realize. Take care of but don't pickle yourself 😂❤
I'm nearly 40 and I still find any products marked as "anti-aging" to be really embarrassing. I don't even fully know why. But fighting aging feels super embarrassing to me and always has. 🙈
Yall, the comment above me is a spam bot deployed by a prolific UA-cam scammer. He has many different spam accounts which he uses to deploy spam comments designed to elicit a strong emotional response from users who do not realize they are interacting with a bot. Another of @ville_ ‘s account is @NotVille_. He has many more. If you see any of his bot comments I strongly urge you to first report the entire account to UA-cam as a “spam/scam account” and then return to flag his comments as spam. I have done so myself, unfortunately it seems it takes a large response for YT to actually do something to stop these spammy accounts that collect engagement and subscribers through illicit means.
Yeah it's bizarre, I'm in my 40's and keep meeting both millennials and genZ that think I'm their age, and ppl I've known for years have somehow forgotten that I'm 10 to 15 years older than them. I don't know what has happened to them that didn't to me, but all I can think of is diet and genetics 🤷♀️
29 and same. growing up i never read paid much attention to my looks, i wasn’t thinking about how im being perceived. only in my mid 20s did i start becoming self aware in that way. worrying about looks and appearances from such an early age is going to have such drastic effects on mental health.
I’m 30 and my middle school years were shitty enough without having to worry about 17 step anti-aging skincare routines. I can’t even imagine having to grow up with this kind of attitude.
As a 25 year old that’s been CURSED with baby face, this is hilarious to me. I WANT to look my age okay? All I want to do is go buy a bottle of wine or smokes without being carded every. single. time!!! 😭😭😭 Edit- I just remembered… doesnt Kylie get Botox? and every unfiltered video/photo we see of her she looks like 40yrs old? And people that haven’t even BRUSHED near my age are getting them? 💀😭
I am almost 21 and I had to give up my dream of being a teacher because I look like 16-year old (I'm really small and kinda chubby, also with a very young looking face). I tried working at a school, but LITERALLY EVERYONE thought that I was a student. It was terrible. And yeah, all the other things in life, like movies, books, trips, alcohol (I live where it is 18+). I even have to provide my id for energy drinks, because our state government decided to mark them as 16+ and I barely pass. I'M AN ADULT WITH AN ACTUAL JOB, WHY CAN'T I LOOK LIKE ONE😭
As a 42yr old who dealt with a baby face my entire life & hated it for most of it: you will SO appreciate the baby face in another 10yrs. Now, I still get carded occasionally and thoroughly enjoy the surprise & confusion when they realize I’m in my 40s lol
I'm a millenial here. Born in 94' The reason we look younger than gen z people is because WE WERE KIDS uninterested in adult influencers (maybe we looked up to our older sister or mom) but we could not be bothered with what adults were doing. We were kids enjoying being kids. When I was 13 I used face wash for teens because I was getting pimples. Lmfao. I wasn't wanting a stupid ass tumbler for Christmas. I would've been upset. I wanted a damn game cube with games. Thats why we look young...because we got the chance to be young and not poisoned by social media. In 4th grade the popular thing was cute shawls and livestrong rubber bracelets...at 10 years old I asked for a shawl and a bracelet, and I wanted to smell like chocolate... lip smackers. 😅😅😂 we got that child hood.
I am 41 and I like the way I look. I am thankful for being healthy and I enjoy life. Ageing is a blessing and I cherish every moment. I take care of myself but don t make it my purpose in life!
I'm 33 and I love how real and down to earth you are! When I first saw your videos, I thought you were older than you are; not because of your looks, but because of your mature way of thinking. Could totally vibe with you irl. Never change 🌼
Hey Arnold called this back in the 90s with teen magazines. Rhonda: but Helga this mask will reduce wrinkles and signs of aging. Helga: we don’t have wrinkles! We don’t have signs of aging! We’re NINE YEARS OLD.
The only “skincare” a teenager needs is anti acne steps. AKA: washing your face, moisturizing, and an effective spot treatment. We didn’t have a lot of gentle products when I was a teen, and I didn’t realize my sensitive skin didn’t like the neutrogena products I was using. I’m glad there’s more products for the sake of handling sometimes painful acne, but the anti-aging stuff is outrageous.
I mean, to be honest what you say also isn't neccesary, it is totally normal when you are young, it's not a problem at all nor anything like it, unless of course you have a pretty aggresive acne, which like you say may really cause you physical disconfort/pain or something like that
@@doloresgronenberg5882Querrás decir que no es necesario para todo el mundo, pero hay adolescentes que sí necesitan esto y si quieren enviar unas cuantas espinillas no hay nada raro ni innecesario
they dont need all that to prevent acne. they need to not eat like stoned junkies, then there's no excess oils for your skin to work out of itself in the first place.
We all use cleansers. I have pretty sensitive skin and didn’t realize my face wasn’t handling Noxzema well at first either (I am pushing 50). Moms start putting moisturizers on newborns after baths as soon as they can and keep it up until the child can do it themselves. I think it’s fine to stress the importance of moisturizing after a shower/bath. It’s a good habit to get into along with eating your fruits and veggies & drinking water. Kids just need a very gentle, unscented, cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen. This is what dermatologists recommend. If they have issues with acne in the tween - teen years they need to talk to their doctor and go from there. Some of these kids are currently destroying their skin barrier with all this extra crap:
I’m 18 (almost 19) but when I was in high school and middle school I looked like a kid. I wasn’t doing skin care or wearing full faces of makeup. I was wearing age appropriate clothes and wasn’t on social media (bless my parents for that). Seeing all of this unfortunately makes me feel bad about myself sometimes but why? It’s stupid and I’m happy I never fell into this and like I know it wasn’t too bad a few years ago but seeing all of this and watching my younger sister fall into this trap is honestly heartbreaking.
The pink sheets on the car window are also illegal,.. it obstructs the drivers view of the blind spots. Man alive. This is WAAAAY too young to be developing this obsession. I really hate to say it but my generation the obsession was cigarettes and bulemia. Anorexia was just before my generation age. Gross. Where’s the generation where the kids obsess about being happy and doing good things for each other. That would be the wow generation. Loved the video, just saw you in my recommends and i thought by the thumbnail it was Sydney watts, but your a new young voice of reason on the tube. Really excellent. You’re adorable, and i love the accent. Cheers 😊
I just realized that (it’s obvious I just never thought about it) Hayley’s channel is actually super healthy and beneficial for young kids/adults mainly with these types of videos. She is very intelligent for her age especially compared to most her age these days….obviously lol.
I was already super insecure about my looks when I was a teen, if I added worrying about aging on top of that and all the pressure to look flawless on all social media and all these stupid nitpicky things they focus on with your body and face I probably would have had a mental breakdown. Now I'm older I care about my appearance but not nearly as much as I used to, now sleep and money weigh out my desire to think about it too much. No wonder kids now have so many issues, I don't know how they cope with all this pressure and constant anxiety about looking flawless and never aging. Because it's a losing battle, everyone will age eventually and die, trying to stop it will just drive you crazy.
You are SO self aware and smart for someone so young. Bless your parents and family for raising a young lady with such a good head on their shoulders!!
@@vogue_paris3106 Bro this one girl was calling the quiet girl ugly nonstop and she got asked, "How am I ugly when you wear 3 pounds of makeup?" Class went silent. Middle school is weird.
@@vogue_paris3106when I was a freshman in highschool I just wanted to be like the halle berry Catwoman and when I was a sophomore in highschool I wanted to be like V from V for Vendetta. 😂
An older Gen Z here. I love the thought of aging! I have a small wrinkle on my forehead from having too much of a furrowed brow and being expressive and I can care the less. Cant wait to be old and finding myself beautiful regardless of how much I've aged
@@user-zw6pe2zv5tI love that it shows you’ve edited this comment, yet your grammar in it is still incredibly wrong lmao. Maybe stop caring so much so that people won’t point out your hypocrisy in the future.
@kdmusic10 I'm 26 and i freaking hate the wrinkle in the middle of my eyebrows. I feel like I am way too old to be this insecure. How did you get yourself to accept your "flaws" - in this case your small wrinkle. I am having difficulties with this (so embarassing). :/
I'm gen X. You're a very bright person, so well said (& expressed! With your face! Yay!) With so much in the world to deal with, the focus on aging is sad. Maybe it gives a sense of control - especially for the future? Like a skincare bomb shelter. Use your faces girls, this is madness. Worrying makes you age, not just physically. ❤
From a 40 yo woman= There is absolutely NO skin care or botox regime that can keep ANYONE looking 19 yo till death. Aging is inevitable. Take care of yourself, look after your skin and body but please, don't dedicate your whole life to trying to prevent visible signs of aging as a result of an irrational fear of aging ❤
The more you disrupt the skin barrier and acid mantle, the more irritation, swelling, etc. you'll have to contend with later. There really is such a thing as doing too much, especially when it comes to skincare. Keep it basic, find what works for your particular needs, and stick with that, no matter all the hype around the latest "it" product. And when in doubt, especially over more serious concerns, please see a dermatologist!
Yes, I am teaching my daughter about skin, but not like this. I teach about ingredients and what they do and what they are good for. That way no matter what the current trend is she can buy items for whatever she needs in the future just by reading the ingredients label. For example: glycerin is great for skin hydration, niacinamide helps with too much oil production, salycilic acid helps exfoliate acne prone skin, you can use cocoa butter and she butter to diy body butters and so on. These oddballs are not learning anything just jumping on the aesthetics of it all. There is a limit to what you should put on your skin at one time if you don’t want a reaction just like you said. I bet if you asked them what ingredients were in what and they preferred they would struggle to explain.
I'm Gen Z and I'm a guy who's had to deal with self image/Esteem issues since I was 11. I've been an overweight goofy 4 eyed freak my entire childhood. I hated the world I hated my parents and I hated the way I looked every time I saw myself in the mirror. I use to get bullied for being socially awkward and by the time I was 13 I would be sexually harassed by many boys school and at one point get followed home. Due to how often I would get into fights (usually with the same person) and with how often I didn't feel listened to I use to starve myself just to have some feeling of control in my life (among other things). At home I would try to make myself vomit after eating something but because I use to get put in choke holds a lot I taught myself how to relax whenever I felt my breathing would be compromised. It didn't take until I was 17 that I started to enjoy life again and actually start working out and eating a bit more healthy. Last year I went on a self love journey and it made me realize just how much I've wasted my life being angry at everything when In reality all those negative events in my life were preparing me for how horrible the world can be and my view on a lot of things have change since. Today at age 23 I can actually look at myself and actually be happy at what I'm looking at despite the layers of bags formed under my eyes along with veins sticking out of my face making me look like palpatine from Starwars. I'm comfortable with myself now and I'm not letting anyone else take my peace of mind away from me again.
I’m so sorry people treated you that badly and even though I don’t know you I’m so proud of you for trying to heal from that and not repeat the cycle! I’m a young woman so I relate to the sexual harassment and I know how much it can mess you up. You deserved safety. You always have and always will!!!
@@EmL-kg5gn Good morning and thank you so much for your kind words. Even though I was a kid when all this happened I was not entirely a victim there has been times where I instigated problems and said things I shouldn't have said. Although I would apologize to some of these people years later I work with myself everyday to not make those same mistakes. which is why topics like workplace bullying and Wage transparency are things I'm passionate about.
Based on some of the comparisons you used, you sound like a cool person. Sorry those things happened. Please continue to remember be a good person despite the negative people. I had my fair share of horrific bullying so I have to remind myself to appreciate myself and that there’s beauty and nice people out there.
@@secretpeace-wp6xgI am truly so sorry that happened to you. Some people just really f'ing suck, ya know? I'm happy to hear that you're doing so much better now and have been able to move past it all. Bullying is horrible. I went through it in elementary and Jr high to the point it completely changed me and the course of my life. I'm happy now but it took many, many years. Take care of yourself and I wish you lots of love, luck, happiness, joy, and peace, my friend ❤❤
I had to get botox for headaches and couldn't take it. It helped the pain so much but I couldn't handle the sacrifice of being unable to express myself. It was SUCH a loss.
As a female raised by a russian mother, who was told to start using anti aging skincare in my teens, I got to say that nowadays most people think I am 7-10+ years younger since I barely have any wrinkles at all. BUT it came with a cost. I am so horrified of aging that it takes a toll on my mental well being. I feel so sorry for these children, whose minds are infected by those new age standards..:/
Russian women also have a diverse genetics which plays a major role how you will look. Stress, eating habits, sleeping habits, etc all play a bigger role than these products ever do. More bs from this outdated hyper-consumerist society.
I mean, people think I’m 7-10 years younger and all I did was not like going outside during most of high school/college. Of course when I was 15 they though I was 25 so genuinely, I just think people don’t know what ages look like
As a female who doesn't use skin care and that got ID in front of my parents at 37 and got ID until I was 45... My mum was the same when she was 40 people thought she was my 16 year old sister. Chances are you looked young anyway
I’m sure that is more genetics 🧬 than anything. Im 36 and my mom just told me to moisture my face and neck. My skin looks great at 36. I tanned, smoked etc. kids need to worry about being kids. Life is not about looks.
I'm fifteen, and honestly, I think aging is beautiful! I personally think it's nothing to be scared of, as my mama says, our bodies are a beautiful vessel for our soul, love it.
I was so happy with the Skincare craze a few years ago bc I have acne and I just wanted to get rid of it (esp. since I had it since I was like 9). But now it’s led to this and it’s so irritating. Everyone is so misinformed and insecure and they don’t even know they are probably aging themselves more by doing certain ‘anti aging’ trends.
It's just sad that people are doing anything and everything to mask their insecurities when there are people out there who will love them for who they are. Nothing will last forever if they keep feeding their insecurities with unnecessary ways to enhance their "youthful" appearance.
Or better yet, people who are literally dying horrible deaths from hate crimes in other countries, and yet here we’ve got five year olds worrying about “looking too old”. What is wrong with our society?
It's so nice to see young people like you who are so no-nonsense and wise already. Thanks for calling this out. I didn't know about this trend since I am not on Tiktok.
I just feel bad for these young girls 😢 But I understand them. Society don't allow women to age. Even when an older woman is complimented in her looks it's because she looks way younger. Also the red pill bros are saying everywhere that a woman over 30 are old and rotten, and we should stay forever 21...
The main audience for Red Pill are young men below 30; ofc they're gonna think 30 year old women are "rotten". Just wait until they hit 30, then realize no young chicks look their way anymore cos there's always "fresh meat" out there.
It's so disturbing! I'm nearly 40 and JUST started using vitamin C serum and retinol in a skincare regimen a couple years ago. I'm certainly not God’s gift to perfect skin or anything but I'd say my skin and face look just fine for my age 😂
Same! I only started with skincare in my mid-to-late 30s, too. And somehow, even with zero anti-aging efforts, I didn’t magically turn into the Crypt Keeper at 20yrs old lol These girls are just stressing themselves out for no reason.
I'm all about graceful aging. I'm 34 and I started getting frown line Botox because I have anxiety. I specifically rejected Botox for my eyes because I want crows feet so I can show a life well lived. It's a way to take control of the direction of my aging, rather than preventing life entirely.
I am currently 17 years old and will turn 18 in July. It's sad to see how insecure my fellow Gen Z peers are about their appearances. Many believe that using certain skincare products will prevent aging and maintain a youthful appearance, but this is not entirely accurate. Aging is a natural process that will occur no matter what products or skincare routines are used. It's important to embrace and accept the changes that come with aging rather than trying to resist the inevitable.
LMAO EXACTLYYY, I mean I'm afraid of aging myself too but come on did they really think they could stop aging with skin care products? 😂😂 there is literally nothing that can keep us looking 18 forever because as you said, its a natural process, its not only our skin that ages its literally our entire bodies from the inside and outside, literally nothing is going to stop our bodies from aging lol
right? we use skincare products to try and get back the skin we had at 13! now now won’t even have that untouched, baby skin because they are slathering their face in chemicals day and night :(
Literally patriarchy is the cause of all this,,,aging must happen to all of us even a baby born today in 100years won't be here the age shaming must stop!!!
i can’t be the only one who’s always WANTED to look OLDER. i have a baby face, im short, and some can say “skinny” but im a healthy weight. my entire life, people always thought i was younger, they treated me like i was younger than i was because they didn’t know i was older than they thought, but when i mentioned it, they’d be like “you look so much younger!” and it made me feel so ashamed of myself. i just wanted people to take me seriously. when i was 19, someone on tiktok told me i looked 26 and it made me HAPPY. i don’t even know why. i also remember posting a tiktok a few months before that and my comments were flooded with “you look 78” or stuff like that, so i took the video down because it was cruel, even though i KNOW i don’t look 70! when i was 12, people thought i was 8. when i was 13, people thought i was 9. when i was 15, people thought i was 11, when i was 16, people thought i was 12. when i was 17, people thought i was 13. and now, im 20, and customers AT MY JOB will literally tell me i don’t look old enough to work (they always say i look 12!) which pisses me off, but i suppose that i really DO have it easy when it comes to that. i hate looking young so much but everyone else is doing whatever it takes to look 19 forever?
In my mid 20s rn and I didn't even learn about skincare until a couple years ago! All we had when I was a teen was Clear and Clear facewash, and pimple cream. A bit of moisturizer. That was all. Seeing these little kids freaking out over a single crease are going to be real upset when they get old enough, come to realize that no matter how much money you spend, all the creams and serums in the world aren't going to stop the wrinkles from forming. You can't stop aging even if you try. Just sad.
This is legitimately TERRIFYING Between this the completely inappropriate Christmas lists, not being able to read and write(I know that’s more Gen Alpha but still similar idea) the Sephora mayhem etc the future of America and the world is hanging by a thread. At this point I honestly don’t know how it’s even fixable. It’s easy to say just be tougher parents be less allowing take away technology etc but if were being 💯 it may be too late. Once kids have reached too far past like toddler age there’s only so much of their core personality you can change. People do mature and grow overtime I know but you can’t just flip a light switch and expect things to get radically better. Sadly there’s no software update on children like on their beloved devices. You can’t just update their operating system to fix what’s wrong. Once they’ve become a certain age they are who they’ll be save for a few tweaks around the edges. Yes there are rare instances of people transforming themselves as adults but that’s rare. These kids have been babied coddled and allowed to run wild for so long the toothpaste is out of the tube the genie is out of the bottle so to speak. I’m 28 soon to be 29 and I’m really worried about my future if this is the kinda youngsters that are gonna be in charge one day. Some of these kids are gonna have to be doctors lawyers auto mechanics bankers etc. If they can’t even do basic grade level work or sit still for more than a millisecond how on Gods earth are they gonna function in society? I’m being totally upfront here with y’all. The parents have given them everything they want for forever that when they have to enter the real world these Gen Z Gen Alpha etc are gonna lose their minds because as we all know grown ups don’t put up with no BS. Idk y’all idk it’s a sad depressing dark road ahead. There’s still some chance at making things a bit better because all these kids are young but I’m afraid for the most part this nightmare is here to stay.
@@viciouslady1340 as a homeschooler, this is it. all my homeschool buddies hate tic toc. when we are hanging out, no one is on their phone (only if a parent is texting one of us or taking pics) that's it! we live in the moment, we talk to each other. we play board games, go outside and play catch or something, go to a park (no matter how cold it is outside). You can really see a difference between schooled kids and homeschooled kids.
Well said thank God am highly educated and can just maintain my very small social circle of scientists and classy people I don't have to interact with the rest of trash of humanity
As a part of the younger side of gen-z, I’m turning 16 and I don’t use skin care products or “anti aging” creams, because I know they’ll do the opposite of what they’re “supposed” to do. Instead of making you young and keeping you that way forever, they’ll make you get older FASTER, which I don’t understand why people are using these products, even if they’re unneeded. SMH Edit: Someone did make a point saying there are good skin care products, but I am specifically talking about the ones from “drunk elephant” that actually makes your skin worse
You are wise beyond your years chica. I appreciate your videos so much. I wish I was this smart at 19. I was just boy crazy and excited about college at 19.
41yr old millennial here that just recently started botox and using an actual skincare product. On a good day i look 28, on a bad, 32. to answer the retorical question of what we did when we were 19?! - drugs. We did drugs.
Bruh I was born 1990. When I was 10 I was a video gamer, went fishing, learning science and going on adventures across the states with my grampa. I saw what adventure meant and got to do a lot of things most kids weren’t able to. But the biggest thing as a kid was learning to embrace joy in life and breathing outdoors, feeling the earth and learning about it. Gen Z didn’t get those lessons and this is what they came up with. We need a massive course correction.
I was on the fence, but your videos convinced me any future kids aren’t getting access to a phone till 18 or when they get a job; whichever is first. And computer time will be limited as well. I’m glad I grew up before all this social media crud. I’ve always been focused more on macro political problems, but there’s a lot of other disturbing stuff going on. Didn’t notice myself because I’m not on social media. You have a great presence and present the information in a very enjoyable and engaging way.
I heard from a dermatologist on here (I forgot her name but if i remember I'll add later) that using retinol when you're young is doing more harm than good. Plus depending on the strength of it it can damage your skin barrier I had to learn that the hard way when I went over board
I’m 37, life is short don’t stress about the small things. Life only goes one way! Embrace who you were created to be and your God given talents. Thank you luv for your video!
I really dont know how this generation got to this idea. I'm seventeen and I love every wrinkle in my face. I love being expressive and I hope when I'm old I become a sweet wrinkly grandma with laughing-wrinkles, frowning-wrinkles and all the other wrinkles you can get.
As a 33 year old, I appreciate that you are ok with aging. I think your generation and mine are going to be dealing with much bigger issues than the wrinkles in our faces in the 2040s-2060s... Like water wars.
Yes I’m older but I completely agree!! For me it’s because one day I want to be old like my grandparents 🥰 I remember as a kid I always thought they were so beautiful!
At that age they aren't even wrinkles from aging, all you will have is natural lines like when you laugh...just stay hydrated, eat healthy...and hope like hell you have good genetics...look at your mother and grandmothers, that's the best way to get an idea of how you will age.
“Anti-aging” is one of the most nonsensical and harmful scams. There’s nothing wrong with taking care of your skin, and even your body in general. But how do you live in the “now” when you are terrified of what is essentially inevitable? How do you see the beauty in yourself period when one little wrinkle scares you? It is just a harmful trend that breeds an infection of insecurities of the inevitable.
Good for you for talking about this anti aging insanity. There's nothing wrong with enjoying your youth and growing into yourself,That's a beatiful thing. Worrying about aging as a teen just adds to all he pressure you face and who needs that? Anything beyond washing your face and using a goid sunscreen is a waste of mental energy. Cherrs!
I embrace every scar, wrinkle, and freckle that I have earned over my 36 years. They are a testament to my journey and the battles I have fought. I wouldn't trade them for anything because they are a part of who I am today. My story is one of hard work, perseverance, and resilience. I am proud of every moment that has brought me to this point, and I have no regrets.
It's still funny to me that Gen Z is 26 turning 27 at their oldest and the entire generation is scared of being 30 (which for most won't even happen for years) 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
And besides you are not even old at that age, you are still young, and for someone who's not your age and who's really an adult and has been an adult for a while, for them you're still pretty much a child being 18 to your early twenties
This is insane. With 15/16 I looked way younger and people who were my age didn't see me as their age. It was actually terrible and the guys who were interest in me were extreme creeps.
Hi Haylo, Im so proud of you for standing up for your future face and body as there is a kind of humble beauty that grows within that actually comes out in your personality. I've been spinning on the earth for a while. I know these things😊ps I now understand why my eyesight is blurry, it's to save me from seeing any unrealistic perfection❤pss my beauty treatment at 12 was grease and dirt.😂😂
What a waste of money lol children and young people have plenty of collagen , they don’t need al of that . Like u said yes sunscreen and a good moisturizer is fine but giving your children Botox is child abuse imo. It’s so refreshing to see a young woman like yourself giving such smart and sensible commentary in a day and age where most of the world has gone insane!! Thank you! 😊
I’m now 23 & I am usually mistaken for a 17-19 yr old. I could most likely convince someone I’m 16 or even 15 too if I wanted. I think it’s really cool and going benefit me in the long run and I’m grateful. The one downside is I’m more unattractive now, but I think I’m just gonna hit my peak at like….42 or something 🤣🤣. Which is cool, I’ll take it hahaha.
I'm 37, I only used body lotion on my face until I turned 30... Not even much make up, to be honest. Still no signs of any wrinkles. Eating healthy, no smoking (!), trying not to stress, hiking as many times as you can, living the moment is the recipe is for your best self.
I’m almost 28 and transitioning so I’ve been having a lot of sadness about missing out on experiences of my teenage years, and struggling with not feeling as young as I actually am. This has definitely helped my anxiety because damn I would rather have smile lines and experiences than spend money on procedures
insane that even preeteens are using retinol. to be honest, i didnt even start wearing sunscreen after 18. what kind of parent in their right mind buys stuff that will harm their child in the future?? do they really expect to look 19 when they are 70?
Hoi sweeties, I'm 64 and proud of my age!!! Happy that I made it so far cause not everyone makes it!!! So just enjoy every age you go through and do not care about lines and wrinkles. Be glad you are alive!!!!! Lots of love from Pinkie 💖to you, sweet Hayley BTW: How funny, that 14 year old was so full of herself that she didn't realize that she was completely wrong about massaging the cream on her neck!! You should rub from bottom to top and not the other way around!! Young and stupid haha cause she better do such things right next time. I pitty those kids, they only care about their ouside, not their inside (and I do not mean about food and drinks, I mean, their soul, their spirit and their intelligence/brain). So sad. Their parents should better watch over that instead of over their 'looks'!!! AGE IS BUT A NUMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i find it really disturbing what skin care has turned into. i am 19, going on 20 and it makes me sad to see people my age and younger worry so much about aging. admittedly, i love skin care. it has helps me manage my skin problems, like severe dryness and irritation; it helps me feel like it's ok to take care of myself. what i think went wrong at some point in time, is that we forgot that certain ingredients are for different age groups. personally, i see no issue in starting to use sun screen (because it helps prevent skin cancer!), moisturisers, light serums or exfoliants at my age, as long as you are aware of what ingredients to avoid. such young skin doesn't need actives like retinol! and there are plenty of products without retinol, vitamin c and the such to choose from, that still have very positive effects on skin health. i really hope that one day, we as a society will be able to move on from these superficial standards of looking young forever and start taking care of our skin, not because we fear aging, but because it deserves to be taken care of. it's our largest organ and is so beautiful, no matter our age and amount of wrinkles. aging and looking old is a huge privilege
Well try skipping makeup, it makes skin issues much worse and can leave scaring...just use some eye liner and mascara...maybe some shaddow for a more noticeable look. It's just insane how much foundation and other full face paint younger women wear now days. It can turn clear skin into acne but ppl keep trying to cover it and only make it worse. The only ppl who used to wear such heavy makeup was actors and dragqueens, and the current trends like contouring and these really heavy looks come from the Drag community...so we have real women walking around looking like troons...and it looks terrible.
@@whispersinthedark88 please do not talk about women in this manner. while, yes, wearing a lot of make-up can make skin irritation and acne worse, it isn't the root of the problem in many cases. you brought up drag queens. many of them don't suffer from severe acne or the sorts. knowing how to remove make up and taking care of your skin properly (which doesn't have to include an elaborate and expensive routine) can really minimise the effects of wearing a lot of make up. if a woman chooses to wear make-up, it's up to her and her alone, to do, what makes her feel comfortable and confident. still, i more than acknowledge, that society, cooperations and media make women and fems more insecure which leads to increased make-up consumption for many. as for myself, i rarely ever wear make-up. my skin issues stem from having neurodermitis since birth, making my skin really sensitive. so, in my case having an age appropriate skin care routine, is a must, if i don't want my skin to start hurting again, every time it comes into contact with moisture
@@whispersinthedark88 also, no, contouring and the likes existed and were popular, before drag became more mainstream. please don't blame drag queens for women's issues. they're also just people expressing themselves and creating art. they are not responsible for "real women" using contouring. additionally, "real women" aren't a thing, there's only women and all women are real women
I’ve always grown up with the idea that growing old is a privilege. A lot of people in my family in the last few generations havent been able to grow old. Growing old and having the proof that you’ve lived a good or bad life show itself as wrinkles is the biggest privilege someone can have.
You are so right, my friends who are younger than me always put loads of makeup on where I maybe put on lipgloss! My skin still is smooth and they are getting different procedures done!
Damn, turned 17 last year and I am honestly flabbergasted at what other people around my age are doing. That extremely complex twice a day skincare at routine is INSANE?!? I personally use cleanser and moisturiser every other day and then before and after wearing make up (which is also not something I do often) social preasure is getting crazier by the day
Was 20 when I obsessed with skincare. But as time went on, I looked older than my friends, I don't know where I went wrong, so I scratch everything, went back to the basic (cleanse, toner, a serum for my acne, moisturizer & spf), and here i am, looking like my age (29 going on 30).
I'm 40, and I remember in the '90s people being peeved that airbrushing was common on magazine covers because it gave unrealistic expectations for how women "should" look. Social media came along, and loads of women were able to get modelling contracts or become influencers by posting their real selves without airbrushing, and I thought, "Great! A way to work around magazines. People like real representations of ourselves!" Until all of these filters took over, and now good luck finding a picture someone takes of themselves without some kind of filter on it. Now here we are again, with all these kids doing these routines that are only meant to throw focus from important things onto vanity, which is a vapid and fruitless endeavour. Imagine caring so much what you look like all your life, then finding that all of these routines and procedures eventually run their course and age just takes over - how much of a bombshell that will be for these girls.
I’m 19 and have looked a few years older than my age since I was about 16, it was around that time that I started passing for an adult. I’m not sure why I would feel bad about it when being seen as an adult for the past 3 years has helped me out in many ways.
Many in your age bracket are ageists. Hate to wave my old fist but the only ageism that mattered was at elderly people when I was 19. It was annoying feeling like I didnt get enough respect, but I knew it would come eventually. Never before was there ageism among same age groups before Z. Never ever did a 15yr old think of a 20yr old as ancient and irrelevant. Older was cool, not someone to insult,
they think theyll look 73 in like a month😭😭
Lol😂
I just turned 14 and I just want a peaceful life but my generation and Gen Z keep on doing this like take a break
All that vaping and social media

They will look 73 if they keep using these products and chemicals on young skin! 😩
The only "skin care" a kid needs is drinking water and eating veggies, and wear sunscreen, unless they need a special thing for a skin condition.
Just depends on the child
It is just my personal opinion... But I think they can at least use a moisturizer and a sunscreen..
@@Coffee-jg7zs you're right I forgot moisturizer, and the basics.

Also, aging gracefully should be embraced more. It’s a BLESSING to get older!

@gwendolynallen3218 That's a nice sentiment, but not at all what I have experienced. Also born with a facial birth defect (like the op mentioned), and I had over 25 faci reconstructive surgeries to try to even just look _"normal."_ Never happened. The surgeon that had since the age of 3 months had no more skills to get me to where I wanted to be, by the time I was 20. When I started working full time and got health insurance, I had several additional reconstructive surgeries. I came to the realization that my particular birth defect will *never go away* even if I had 100 more surgeries. But I'd like to think at least I *_tried,_* and that was in some weird attempt to appease others and not get condemning comments, slurs and disgusted looks. Altering one's face a few dozen times certainly wears on a person. I am close to 60 now, and I couldn't give a sh*t any about what anyone thinks or says. 😁

“Let’s talk skincare!” 💀 To a 5 year old???? What’s wrong with those “parents”? EW!
Exactly! She was giving the 5 year old GLOW RECIPE TONER?!
She is gonna have acne at 10!
All the “skincare” a 5 year old needs is “you skin is part of your body and you take care of it by keeping it clean and wearing sunscreen.”
It makes me so sad to see teenagers feeling like they have to use retinol and anti-aging products. Being a teenager is already hard and constantly being told that you need to invest in expensive skincare treatments to look young makes it so much more exhausting.
retinol was originally an acne treatment and that’s what i use it for (i’m 16)
@@lucilock713
Retinol for teens is probably fine especially considering that, but there are literal 10 year olds using very harsh retinol in their 15 step skincare routine
@@justhylwaa1558I’m 13 and use retinol for acne and hyper pigmentation. It was prescribed by my dermatologist
My concern is if one of these Gen Zs and Alphas (older ones) get pregnant, while taking retinol and having no idea that retinol is contraindicated in pregnancy.
It’s crazy isn’t it? It’s imperative to use good skincare as a teenager as spots etc (my own experience) and every other girls was normal. Fear of aging at this age is sad.
This infuriates me for several reasons:
1. It's performative, not preventative. Other than sunscreen, you're not preventing anything at that age. Cleanser, simple mousturizer, and sunscreen is all you need.
2. The skin care companies are loving this because it's a new market and they are ROLLING in the money.
3. These girls are missing out on the whole "carefree" childhood and teen years.
4. These kids are starting a routine that they'll never be able to stop at such a young age, they're going to be burnt out at a young age.
5. Medical procedures for no reason....I can't even......😡
6. They literally need to touch grass. Roll in the grass, throw a mud pie at their friends....😭
They indeed prevent nothing with anything but sunscreen. Sunscreen, cleanser and moisturizer is all you need at that age. Also, if you use retinols that young, they might not be working as well when your collagen starts slowing down later. Our bodies can get used to every substance we use and develop a tolerance to it. Tretinoin won’t work as well when you are older when you already used it since a very young age. I have seen it in patients who used it for acne since their teens. Yes, they often do look younger in their 30s than others but they also always used sunscreen, because that’s a must with this acne treatment, so that plays a huge role. If you use the tanks before your even at war, you’ll have nothing left later.
Reminds me why I don't say I'm a proud gen z fr. People are demented out here😂😂 imo

And it's just a band-aid. It's going to get worse every year for them. Every birthday will be a painful event. They'll hate themselves more with every year.

@@ville__100% sure your comment counts not only as spam, but also doubles as misinformation.
LIFE DOESN'T END AFTER 25! I'm 41 and I look fucking rad! I can say that now too because of the confidence age has brought to me. People SHOULD have self love and confidence because it's a healthy mentality. I don't look 20 but I don't look 40 but even if I did WHO THE HELL CARES?! I take great care of my skin and body and that's healthy, but obsessing over it to the point you mutilate yourself thinking it's somehow a time machine, it's just not necessary! Wisdom comes with age too and that's worth so much more than many realize. Take care of but don't pickle yourself 😂❤
I'm nearly 40 and I still find any products marked as "anti-aging" to be really embarrassing. I don't even fully know why. But fighting aging feels super embarrassing to me and always has. 🙈
Bc your brain functions like a normal human being lol.
also because it does nothing, putting that stuff on your skin isn't scientific, it's performative.
All anti aging products are a scam, truly.
Exactly, it's honestly just inevitable we have to embrace it. Everyone ages, no one stays "19 forever" even if it seems like it
The obsession with appearance and looking old that our society has is so incredibly sad.

29 and same. growing up i never read paid much attention to my looks, i wasn’t thinking about how im being perceived. only in my mid 20s did i start becoming self aware in that way. worrying about looks and appearances from such an early age is going to have such drastic effects on mental health.
I’m 31, and I looks younger than many of these girls. I feel sad for them ‘cus they’re going to mess their skin.
I’m 30 and my middle school years were shitty enough without having to worry about 17 step anti-aging skincare routines. I can’t even imagine having to grow up with this kind of attitude.
This is actually really sad and disturbing
I agree!!! We shouldn't even be worrying about this when we're not yet adults

I am almost 21 and I had to give up my dream of being a teacher because I look like 16-year old (I'm really small and kinda chubby, also with a very young looking face). I tried working at a school, but LITERALLY EVERYONE thought that I was a student. It was terrible. And yeah, all the other things in life, like movies, books, trips, alcohol (I live where it is 18+). I even have to provide my id for energy drinks, because our state government decided to mark them as 16+ and I barely pass. I'M AN ADULT WITH AN ACTUAL JOB, WHY CAN'T I LOOK LIKE ONE😭

As a 42yr old who dealt with a baby face my entire life & hated it for most of it: you will SO appreciate the baby face in another 10yrs. Now, I still get carded occasionally and thoroughly enjoy the surprise & confusion when they realize I’m in my 40s lol
I'm a millenial here. Born in 94' The reason we look younger than gen z people is because WE WERE KIDS uninterested in adult influencers (maybe we looked up to our older sister or mom) but we could not be bothered with what adults were doing. We were kids enjoying being kids. When I was 13 I used face wash for teens because I was getting pimples. Lmfao. I wasn't wanting a stupid ass tumbler for Christmas. I would've been upset. I wanted a damn game cube with games. Thats why we look young...because we got the chance to be young and not poisoned by social media. In 4th grade the popular thing was cute shawls and livestrong rubber bracelets...at 10 years old I asked for a shawl and a bracelet, and I wanted to smell like chocolate... lip smackers. 😅😅😂 we got that child hood.

As Told By Ginger, too! The makeup episode!
The only “skincare” a teenager needs is anti acne steps. AKA: washing your face, moisturizing, and an effective spot treatment. We didn’t have a lot of gentle products when I was a teen, and I didn’t realize my sensitive skin didn’t like the neutrogena products I was using. I’m glad there’s more products for the sake of handling sometimes painful acne, but the anti-aging stuff is outrageous.
I mean, to be honest what you say also isn't neccesary, it is totally normal when you are young, it's not a problem at all nor anything like it, unless of course you have a pretty aggresive acne, which like you say may really cause you physical disconfort/pain or something like that
@@doloresgronenberg5882Querrás decir que no es necesario para todo el mundo, pero hay adolescentes que sí necesitan esto y si quieren enviar unas cuantas espinillas no hay nada raro ni innecesario
they dont need all that to prevent acne. they need to not eat like stoned junkies, then there's no excess oils for your skin to work out of itself in the first place.
I think kids shouldn't be allowed to use Skincare until they are adults because the only things they need are lotions & a good acne cream
We all use cleansers. I have pretty sensitive skin and didn’t realize my face wasn’t handling Noxzema well at first either (I am pushing 50).
Moms start putting moisturizers on newborns after baths as soon as they can and keep it up until the child can do it themselves.
I think it’s fine to stress the importance of moisturizing after a shower/bath. It’s a good habit to get into along with eating your fruits and veggies & drinking water.
Kids just need a very gentle, unscented, cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen.
This is what dermatologists recommend.
If they have issues with acne in the tween - teen years they need to talk to their doctor and go from there.
Some of these kids are currently destroying their skin barrier with all this extra crap:
I’m 18 (almost 19) but when I was in high school and middle school I looked like a kid. I wasn’t doing skin care or wearing full faces of makeup. I was wearing age appropriate clothes and wasn’t on social media (bless my parents for that). Seeing all of this unfortunately makes me feel bad about myself sometimes but why? It’s stupid and I’m happy I never fell into this and like I know it wasn’t too bad a few years ago but seeing all of this and watching my younger sister fall into this trap is honestly heartbreaking.
The pink sheets on the car window are also illegal,.. it obstructs the drivers view of the blind spots. Man alive. This is WAAAAY too young to be developing this obsession.

The more you disrupt the skin barrier and acid mantle, the more irritation, swelling, etc. you'll have to contend with later.
There really is such a thing as doing too much, especially when it comes to skincare. Keep it basic, find what works for your particular needs, and stick with that, no matter all the hype around the latest "it" product.
And when in doubt, especially over more serious concerns, please see a dermatologist!
Yes, I am teaching my daughter about skin, but not like this. I teach about ingredients and what they do and what they are good for. That way no matter what the current trend is she can buy items for whatever she needs in the future just by reading the ingredients label. For example: glycerin is great for skin hydration, niacinamide helps with too much oil production, salycilic acid helps exfoliate acne prone skin, you can use cocoa butter and she butter to diy body butters and so on. These oddballs are not learning anything just jumping on the aesthetics of it all. There is a limit to what you should put on your skin at one time if you don’t want a reaction just like you said. I bet if you asked them what ingredients were in what and they preferred they would struggle to explain.
I'm Gen Z and I'm a guy who's had to deal with self image/Esteem issues since I was 11. I've been an overweight goofy 4 eyed freak my entire childhood. I hated the world I hated my parents and I hated the way I looked every time I saw myself in the mirror.
I use to get bullied for being socially awkward and by the time I was 13 I would be sexually harassed by many boys school and at one point get followed home. Due to how often I would get into fights (usually with the same person) and with how often I didn't feel listened to I use to starve myself just to have some feeling of control in my life (among other things).
At home I would try to make myself vomit after eating something but because I use to get put in choke holds a lot I taught myself how to relax whenever I felt my breathing would be compromised.
It didn't take until I was 17 that I started to enjoy life again and actually start working out and eating a bit more healthy.
Last year I went on a self love journey and it made me realize just how much I've wasted my life being angry at everything when In reality all those negative events in my life were preparing me for how horrible the world can be and my view on a lot of things have change since.
Today at age 23 I can actually look at myself and actually be happy at what I'm looking at despite the layers of bags formed under my eyes along with veins sticking out of my face making me look like palpatine from Starwars.
I'm comfortable with myself now and I'm not letting anyone else take my peace of mind away from me again.
I’m so sorry people treated you that badly and even though I don’t know you I’m so proud of you for trying to heal from that and not repeat the cycle! I’m a young woman so I relate to the sexual harassment and I know how much it can mess you up. You deserved safety. You always have and always will!!!
@@EmL-kg5gn Good morning and thank you so much for your kind words. Even though I was a kid when all this happened I was not entirely a victim there has been times where I instigated problems and said things I shouldn't have said. Although I would apologize to some of these people years later I work with myself everyday to not make those same mistakes.
which is why topics like workplace bullying and Wage transparency are things I'm passionate about.
Based on some of the comparisons you used, you sound like a cool person. Sorry those things happened. Please continue to remember be a good person despite the negative people. I had my fair share of horrific bullying so I have to remind myself to appreciate myself and that there’s beauty and nice people out there.
@@secretpeace-wp6xgI am truly so sorry that happened to you. Some people just really f'ing suck, ya know? I'm happy to hear that you're doing so much better now and have been able to move past it all. Bullying is horrible. I went through it in elementary and Jr high to the point it completely changed me and the course of my life. I'm happy now but it took many, many years. Take care of yourself and I wish you lots of love, luck, happiness, joy, and peace, my friend ❤❤
@@TRUMPisOPPA I will and I hope everything in life works out for you.
Hayley!!❤❤ I cant believe you’re only 19!! You definitely have an old soul. I’m 27 and I totally relate to you!!🧡🧡🧡🧡
I had to get botox for headaches and couldn't take it. It helped the pain so much but I couldn't handle the sacrifice of being unable to express myself. It was SUCH a loss.
As a female raised by a russian mother, who was told to start using anti aging skincare in my teens, I got to say that nowadays most people think I am 7-10+ years younger since I barely have any wrinkles at all. BUT it came with a cost. I am so horrified of aging that it takes a toll on my mental well being. I feel so sorry for these children, whose minds are infected by those new age standards..:/
Russian women also have a diverse genetics which plays a major role how you will look. Stress, eating habits, sleeping habits, etc all play a bigger role than these products ever do. More bs from this outdated hyper-consumerist society.
I mean, people think I’m 7-10 years younger and all I did was not like going outside during most of high school/college. Of course when I was 15 they though I was 25 so genuinely, I just think people don’t know what ages look like
As a female who doesn't use skin care and that got ID in front of my parents at 37 and got ID until I was 45... My mum was the same when she was 40 people thought she was my 16 year old sister. Chances are you looked young anyway
I agree, genetics also play a huge part- I think most of the people and teens do not consider this and think they can stop the time @@cashkitty3472
I’m sure that is more genetics 🧬 than anything. Im 36 and my mom just told me to moisture my face and neck. My skin looks great at 36. I tanned, smoked etc. kids need to worry about being kids. Life is not about looks.
I'm 41 and I take care of my skin. I started at 35 , but I feel more beautiful than I ever have. Age gracefully ladies. It's beautiful

So refreshing that you have that healthy mindset! Keep it up in your twenties too!
I was so happy with the Skincare craze a few years ago bc I have acne and I just wanted to get rid of it (esp. since I had it since I was like 9). But now it’s led to this and it’s so irritating. Everyone is so misinformed and insecure and they don’t even know they are probably aging themselves more by doing certain ‘anti aging’ trends.
stressing over what you look like gives you wrinkles a lot faster than if you dont be stressing about it
It's just sad that people are doing anything and everything to mask their insecurities when there are people out there who will love them for who they are. Nothing will last forever if they keep feeding their insecurities with unnecessary ways to enhance their "youthful" appearance.
Or better yet, people who are literally dying horrible deaths from hate crimes in other countries, and yet here we’ve got five year olds worrying about “looking too old”. What is wrong with our society?
@@fourlittlebirds6166 Everything is wrong with our society
It's so nice to see young people like you who are so no-nonsense and wise already. Thanks for calling this out. I didn't know about this trend since I am not on Tiktok.
I just saw this channel and i already love her energy so much and i find her really funny too😭😭
I just feel bad for these young girls 😢 But I understand them. Society don't allow women to age. Even when an older woman is complimented in her looks it's because she looks way younger. Also the red pill bros are saying everywhere that a woman over 30 are old and rotten, and we should stay forever 21...
The main audience for Red Pill are young men below 30; ofc they're gonna think 30 year old women are "rotten". Just wait until they hit 30, then realize no young chicks look their way anymore cos there's always "fresh meat" out there.
Word. Also, I'm turning 30 this year and personally I consider redpill dudes thinking that makes me ugly an absolute win tbh 😂
That right there is honestly the biggest issue and so true, society wont let women age
man who gives a shit what they think, my dad always said "it's other peoples' problem if they think you're hot or not" and he was absolutely right.
It's so disturbing! I'm nearly 40 and JUST started using vitamin C serum and retinol in a skincare regimen a couple years ago. I'm certainly not God’s gift to perfect skin or anything but I'd say my skin and face look just fine for my age 😂
Same! I only started with skincare in my mid-to-late 30s, too. And somehow, even with zero anti-aging efforts, I didn’t magically turn into the Crypt Keeper at 20yrs old lol These girls are just stressing themselves out for no reason.
@@NotVille_cringe
Lol yeah for real, it’s good to look your age.
I'm all about graceful aging. I'm 34 and I started getting frown line Botox because I have anxiety. I specifically rejected Botox for my eyes because I want crows feet so I can show a life well lived. It's a way to take control of the direction of my aging, rather than preventing life entirely.
@@missdenisebeeand stress causes wrinkles 🙂
I’m 22, but from my 20 I have changed a lot. Due to stress and war in my country. Stress, not lack of routine makes you look older
I'm 31, never in my life ever washed my face with anything other than water. I don't even wash my face very often either. I'm still told I look 20.
I am currently 17 years old and will turn 18 in July. It's sad to see how insecure my fellow Gen Z peers are about their appearances. Many believe that using certain skincare products will prevent aging and maintain a youthful appearance, but this is not entirely accurate. Aging is a natural process that will occur no matter what products or skincare routines are used. It's important to embrace and accept the changes that come with aging rather than trying to resist the inevitable.
LMAO EXACTLYYY, I mean I'm afraid of aging myself too but come on did they really think they could stop aging with skin care products? 😂😂 there is literally nothing that can keep us looking 18 forever because as you said, its a natural process, its not only our skin that ages its literally our entire bodies from the inside and outside, literally nothing is going to stop our bodies from aging lol
Haley fakes her vids at least I actually put effort into mine LOL
right? we use skincare products to try and get back the skin we had at 13! now now won’t even have that untouched, baby skin because they are slathering their face in chemicals day and night :(
Literally patriarchy is the cause of all this,,,aging must happen to all of us even a baby born today in 100years won't be here the age shaming must stop!!!
Any parent or doctor willing to let a 16 year old inject Botox into there skin needs to be put under the jail, cause wtf, what has the world come to.
I'm turning 13 in September and I'm BAFFLED at how obsessed ppl are with looking young..
i can’t be the only one who’s always WANTED to look OLDER. i have a baby face, im short, and some can say “skinny” but im a healthy weight.
my entire life, people always thought i was younger, they treated me like i was younger than i was because they didn’t know i was older than they thought, but when i mentioned it, they’d be like “you look so much younger!” and it made me feel so ashamed of myself. i just wanted people to take me seriously.
when i was 19, someone on tiktok told me i looked 26 and it made me HAPPY. i don’t even know why.
i also remember posting a tiktok a few months before that and my comments were flooded with “you look 78” or stuff like that, so i took the video down because it was cruel, even though i KNOW i don’t look 70!
when i was 12, people thought i was 8.
when i was 13, people thought i was 9.
when i was 15, people thought i was 11,
when i was 16, people thought i was 12.
when i was 17, people thought i was 13.
and now, im 20, and customers AT MY JOB will literally tell me i don’t look old enough to work (they always say i look 12!) which pisses me off, but i suppose that i really DO have it easy when it comes to that. i hate looking young so much but everyone else is doing whatever it takes to look 19 forever?
I get it 😞 I’m 24 and when I answered the door to my apartment for the internet guy, he asked for my parents…. 😶😐
As a Gen Z (2006), Ive always found this a tad bit too much .. like GIRLIE YOU’RE NOT BECOMING 65 IF YOU DONT USE ANTI AGING CREAMS 💀
In my mid 20s rn and I didn't even learn about skincare until a couple years ago! All we had when I was a teen was Clear and Clear facewash, and pimple cream. A bit of moisturizer. That was all. Seeing these little kids freaking out over a single crease are going to be real upset when they get old enough, come to realize that no matter how much money you spend, all the creams and serums in the world aren't going to stop the wrinkles from forming. You can't stop aging even if you try. Just sad.
Not only are the pink sheets unnecessary, but it creates huge blindspots for thier parents, who are the ones driving. 😮
I totally agree! This is great advice for young women.
This is legitimately TERRIFYING
Between this the completely inappropriate Christmas lists, not being able to read and write(I know that’s more Gen Alpha but still similar idea) the Sephora mayhem etc the future of America and the world is hanging by a thread.
At this point I honestly don’t know how it’s even fixable. It’s easy to say just be tougher parents be less allowing take away technology etc but if were being 💯 it may be too late. Once kids have reached too far past like toddler age there’s only so much of their core personality you can change. People do mature and grow overtime I know but you can’t just flip a light switch and expect things to get radically better. Sadly there’s no software update on children like on their beloved devices. You can’t just update their operating system to fix what’s wrong. Once they’ve become a certain age they are who they’ll be save for a few tweaks around the edges. Yes there are rare instances of people transforming themselves as adults but that’s rare.
These kids have been babied coddled and allowed to run wild for so long the toothpaste is out of the tube the genie is out of the bottle so to speak.
I’m 28 soon to be 29 and I’m really worried about my future if this is the kinda youngsters that are gonna be in charge one day. Some of these kids are gonna have to be doctors lawyers auto mechanics bankers etc. If they can’t even do basic grade level work or sit still for more than a millisecond how on Gods earth are they gonna function in society? I’m being totally upfront here with y’all. The parents have given them everything they want for forever that when they have to enter the real world these Gen Z Gen Alpha etc are gonna lose their minds because as we all know grown ups don’t put up with no BS.
Idk y’all idk it’s a sad depressing dark road ahead. There’s still some chance at making things a bit better because all these kids are young but I’m afraid for the most part this nightmare is here to stay.
The only solution is too home school your children and keep off tic tock .
@@viciouslady1340Literally just keep them off social media and make sure they are not badly influenced
@@viciouslady1340 as a homeschooler, this is it. all my homeschool buddies hate tic toc. when we are hanging out, no one is on their phone (only if a parent is texting one of us or taking pics) that's it! we live in the moment, we talk to each other. we play board games, go outside and play catch or something, go to a park (no matter how cold it is outside). You can really see a difference between schooled kids and homeschooled kids.
@@guidedexplosiveprojectileg9943and discipline the damn kids alot of kids don't fear authority!!!!
Well said thank God am highly educated and can just maintain my very small social circle of scientists and classy people I don't have to interact with the rest of trash of humanity
As a part of the younger side of gen-z, I’m turning 16 and I don’t use skin care products or “anti aging” creams, because I know they’ll do the opposite of what they’re “supposed” to do. Instead of making you young and keeping you that way forever, they’ll make you get older FASTER, which I don’t understand why people are using these products, even if they’re unneeded. SMH
Edit:
Someone did make a point saying there are good skin care products, but I am specifically talking about the ones from “drunk elephant” that actually makes your skin worse

Bruh I was born 1990. When I was 10 I was a video gamer, went fishing, learning science and going on adventures across the states with my grampa. I saw what adventure meant and got to do a lot of things most kids weren’t able to. But the biggest thing as a kid was learning to embrace joy in life and breathing outdoors, feeling the earth and learning about it.
Gen Z didn’t get those lessons and this is what they came up with. We need a massive course correction.
I was on the fence, but your videos convinced me any future kids aren’t getting access to a phone till 18 or when they get a job; whichever is first. And computer time will be limited as well. I’m glad I grew up before all this social media crud. I’ve always been focused more on macro political problems, but there’s a lot of other disturbing stuff going on. Didn’t notice myself because I’m not on social media. You have a great presence and present the information in a very enjoyable and engaging way.

I heard from a dermatologist on here (I forgot her name but if i remember I'll add later) that using retinol when you're young is doing more harm than good. Plus depending on the strength of it it can damage your skin barrier I had to learn that the hard way when I went over board
Yea all this skin care is gonna make them look older
I was lucky enough to learn tht early on from my grandma
I’m 37, life is short don’t stress about the small things. Life only goes one way! Embrace who you were created to be and your God given talents. Thank you luv for your video!
So many products that young would damage your skin before it's started forming
I really dont know how this generation got to this idea. I'm seventeen and I love every wrinkle in my face. I love being expressive and I hope when I'm old I become a sweet wrinkly grandma with laughing-wrinkles, frowning-wrinkles and all the other wrinkles you can get.
As a 33 year old, I appreciate that you are ok with aging. I think your generation and mine are going to be dealing with much bigger issues than the wrinkles in our faces in the 2040s-2060s... Like water wars.
Yes I’m older but I completely agree!! For me it’s because one day I want to be old like my grandparents 🥰 I remember as a kid I always thought they were so beautiful!
Embrace it, because there are people out there who are terminal, and would love to have the chance to become a wrinkly grandma/grandpa
At that age they aren't even wrinkles from aging, all you will have is natural lines like when you laugh...just stay hydrated, eat healthy...and hope like hell you have good genetics...look at your mother and grandmothers, that's the best way to get an idea of how you will age.
you have wrinkles at 17??
“Anti-aging” is one of the most nonsensical and harmful scams. There’s nothing wrong with taking care of your skin, and even your body in general. But how do you live in the “now” when you are terrified of what is essentially inevitable? How do you see the beauty in yourself period when one little wrinkle scares you? It is just a harmful trend that breeds an infection of insecurities of the inevitable.
Good for you for talking about this anti aging insanity. There's nothing wrong with enjoying your youth and growing into yourself,That's a beatiful thing. Worrying about aging as a teen just adds to all he pressure you face and who needs that? Anything beyond washing your face and using a goid sunscreen is a waste of mental energy. Cherrs!
I embrace every scar, wrinkle, and freckle that I have earned over my 36 years. They are a testament to my journey and the battles I have fought. I wouldn't trade them for anything because they are a part of who I am today. My story is one of hard work, perseverance, and resilience. I am proud of every moment that has brought me to this point, and I have no regrets.
It's still funny to me that Gen Z is 26 turning 27 at their oldest and the entire generation is scared of being 30 (which for most won't even happen for years) 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The thirties are Awesome 😎
And besides you are not even old at that age, you are still young, and for someone who's not your age and who's really an adult and has been an adult for a while, for them you're still pretty much a child being 18 to your early twenties
I am 27 and just starting a skin care routine but a lot of the time I am just glad if I manage to wash my face before bed 😅😅
This is insane. With 15/16 I looked way younger and people who were my age didn't see me as their age. It was actually terrible and the guys who were interest in me were extreme creeps.
Finally. I’m glad somebody said it. “They is nothing wrong with looking your age. Period.”
Hi Haylo, Im so proud of you for standing up for your future face and body as there is a kind of humble beauty that grows within that actually comes out in your personality.

i find it really disturbing what skin care has turned into. i am 19, going on 20 and it makes me sad to see people my age and younger worry so much about aging. admittedly, i love skin care. it has helps me manage my skin problems, like severe dryness and irritation; it helps me feel like it's ok to take care of myself. what i think went wrong at some point in time, is that we forgot that certain ingredients are for different age groups. personally, i see no issue in starting to use sun screen (because it helps prevent skin cancer!), moisturisers, light serums or exfoliants at my age, as long as you are aware of what ingredients to avoid. such young skin doesn't need actives like retinol! and there are plenty of products without retinol, vitamin c and the such to choose from, that still have very positive effects on skin health.
i really hope that one day, we as a society will be able to move on from these superficial standards of looking young forever and start taking care of our skin, not because we fear aging, but because it deserves to be taken care of. it's our largest organ and is so beautiful, no matter our age and amount of wrinkles. aging and looking old is a huge privilege
Well try skipping makeup, it makes skin issues much worse and can leave scaring...just use some eye liner and mascara...maybe some shaddow for a more noticeable look. It's just insane how much foundation and other full face paint younger women wear now days. It can turn clear skin into acne but ppl keep trying to cover it and only make it worse. The only ppl who used to wear such heavy makeup was actors and dragqueens, and the current trends like contouring and these really heavy looks come from the Drag community...so we have real women walking around looking like troons...and it looks terrible.
@@whispersinthedark88 please do not talk about women in this manner. while, yes, wearing a lot of make-up can make skin irritation and acne worse, it isn't the root of the problem in many cases. you brought up drag queens. many of them don't suffer from severe acne or the sorts. knowing how to remove make up and taking care of your skin properly (which doesn't have to include an elaborate and expensive routine) can really minimise the effects of wearing a lot of make up. if a woman chooses to wear make-up, it's up to her and her alone, to do, what makes her feel comfortable and confident. still, i more than acknowledge, that society, cooperations and media make women and fems more insecure which leads to increased make-up consumption for many.
as for myself, i rarely ever wear make-up. my skin issues stem from having neurodermitis since birth, making my skin really sensitive. so, in my case having an age appropriate skin care routine, is a must, if i don't want my skin to start hurting again, every time it comes into contact with moisture
@@whispersinthedark88 also, no, contouring and the likes existed and were popular, before drag became more mainstream. please don't blame drag queens for women's issues. they're also just people expressing themselves and creating art. they are not responsible for "real women" using contouring. additionally, "real women" aren't a thing, there's only women and all women are real women
I’ve always grown up with the idea that growing old is a privilege. A lot of people in my family in the last few generations havent been able to grow old. Growing old and having the proof that you’ve lived a good or bad life show itself as wrinkles is the biggest privilege someone can have.
You are so right, my friends who are younger than me always put loads of makeup on where I maybe put on lipgloss! My skin still is smooth and they are getting different procedures done!
I Love you no lezbo but just your honesty and knowledge its totally ridiculous how crazy this world is

Damn, turned 17 last year and I am honestly flabbergasted at what other people around my age are doing. That extremely complex twice a day skincare at routine is INSANE?!?

@@Rand0m_uploaderwell….yeah, that too 😶🌫️
Was 20 when I obsessed with skincare. But as time went on, I looked older than my friends, I don't know where I went wrong, so I scratch everything, went back to the basic (cleanse, toner, a serum for my acne, moisturizer & spf), and here i am, looking like my age (29 going on 30).
I'm 40, and I remember in the '90s people being peeved that airbrushing was common on magazine covers because it gave unrealistic expectations for how women "should" look. Social media came along, and loads of women were able to get modelling contracts or become influencers by posting their real selves without airbrushing, and I thought, "Great! A way to work around magazines. People like real representations of ourselves!" Until all of these filters took over, and now good luck finding a picture someone takes of themselves without some kind of filter on it. Now here we are again, with all these kids doing these routines that are only meant to throw focus from important things onto vanity, which is a vapid and fruitless endeavour. Imagine caring so much what you look like all your life, then finding that all of these routines and procedures eventually run their course and age just takes over - how much of a bombshell that will be for these girls.
I’m 19 and have looked a few years older than my age since I was about 16, it was around that time that I started passing for an adult. I’m not sure why I would feel bad about it when being seen as an adult for the past 3 years has helped me out in many ways.
Many in your age bracket are ageists. Hate to wave my old fist but the only ageism that mattered was at elderly people when I was 19. It was annoying feeling like I didnt get enough respect, but I knew it would come eventually. Never before was there ageism among same age groups before Z. Never ever did a 15yr old think of a 20yr old as ancient and irrelevant. Older was cool, not someone to insult,
