“Besides the obvious wrinkles and skin quality let me tell you what is ageing you.
“Number one is your outdated hairstyle, the hair theory is real and this is the idea that people will perceive you differently based on how you style your hair.
“So if you’re not keeping up with hair trends it’s making you look older.
“Number two is being overweight, seven out of 10 Americans are overweight.
“You’d be surprised at how much younger you will look if you lose 10 to 20 pounds.
“Healthy lifestyle and maintaining a healthy weight will keep you looking young.
“Number three is yellow or crooked teeth. Avoid drinks like coffee and red wine to maintain a youthful smile.
“Number four is your outdated style. If you’re wearing clothes in your closet that are more than five years old – this is ageing you.
“And Number five is being a ‘Karen’. Your attitude has everything to do with how people perceive you.
“Nagging and complaining will get you nowhere but a positive attitude will project a youthful spirit.”
Hundreds of people decided to share their reaction to her video.
One wrote: “The weight thing is so true.”
Another added: “I feel being too thin actually makes people look older. Mid size for me looks best, my face stays plump.”
A third said: “No way I’m giving up coffee or wine! Let’s hope my shining personality makes up for it.”
