2nd place: Sagging

I’m shocked to see the sagging cheeks in photos and first impressions, as they make me look older all at once.

I’ve had sagging skin since I was young, but it’s gotten worse every year.

I don’t want to look old. (40’s/Sensitive Skin) – It seems like I started to develop presbyopia and found myself squinting unconsciously, which resulted in slight wrinkles between my eyebrows, and an increase in the smile lines around the corners of my eyes that I’ve had since I was young. The nasolabial folds are also getting darker and starting to wrinkle. (40s/combination skin) – This is because when I turned 40, the wrinkles and fine lines on my forehead suddenly deepened, and I realized that my face looked older.

・I’m curious about everything. When I turned 42, my skin started to sag and I suddenly felt older. (40’s/Sensitive skin) – This is because the skin tends to be reddish and rough. If it weren’t for the dryness, my skin would be whiter (40’s/dry skin) – I’m still worried about dryness in my 30’s, so I think I’ll become more concerned about it (40’s/dry skin) Skin): If your skin is dry, your makeup will easily come off in the evening and wrinkles will become more noticeable.

I’ve had friends and family point out my skin, so I’m worried that they’re staring at me (I’m in my 40s/combination skin).I’ve been concerned about darkened pores and bumpy skin since I was young. However, since I turned 40, my pores have become even more sagging and noticeable. (40s/combination skin)
6th place: Dullness
・Even if I apply foundation, I can’t hide it completely, and I’m worried that my complexion will look pale and unhealthy. (40’s/Dry Skin) – I thought so because I am in my 40’s and my skin problem is dullness. Compared to when I was younger, my skin has deteriorated and I’m most concerned about dullness (I’m in my 40s/combination skin) and my skin tone has worsened and I don’t get the color I want. The brightness of my skin color has become less bright. (40s/oily skin) – I think the biggest problem is when your skin becomes dull because it makes you look dirty and older (40s/dry skin) – It’s good when you’re wearing makeup (foundation). However, if you don’t make up, your skin tone will look bad due to the dullness, and people will ask, “Are you sick?” (40s/combination skin)
7th place: Others
・Perhaps because of my age, I sweat a lot, especially around my forehead and nose, and my makeup tends to come off easily (I’m in my 40s/oily skin). It goes away easily (I’m in my 40s/sensitive skin) – In my case, I’ve had dark circles since I was young, even after getting a good night’s sleep, and I’ve tried various things like concealer and massage, but I can’t really hide them.
