The use of Botox and makeup among Gen Z has sparked discussions on their appearance, with some noting that the thick makeup and Botox may be contributing to an older appearance. The debate was fueled by a comparison of identical twins, one of whom had regular Botox for over a decade, while the other didn't. The discourse suggests that the lack of age signifiers in fashion and the prevalence of thick makeup may be leading to a blurring of age distinctions in style and appearance.

I also think Gen Z's obsession with wearing a thick layer of makeup (foundation, powder, contour, overlining lips) contributes to this. Thick makeup is incredibly aging. And all that powder is drying out their eyelids and skin at a very young age. https://t.co/oFRw3aFSjY
given this 0.2 seconds of thought but the whole ‘gen z looks older’ thing to me can be bottled down to the fact that there are simply no signifiers of age in style anymore 30 year olds are dressing like 15 year olds who are dressing like 45 year old old money heiresses https://t.co/KzhNB0IT5C
I've seen a bunch of "Gen Z looks weirdly old" discourse, which has really helped me articulate something I knew in the back of my head but couldn't articulate. They look like old people with anachronistic teeth and skincare. I can't unsee anymore. https://t.co/jNoLbjHp64
One identical twin, 38, had Botox for 20 years - the other didn't. Who do YOU think looks better? https://t.co/9T7bbjVwJh https://t.co/5iESFv697j
My Gen Z sister has looked 14 for like a decade but maybe the obsessive vaping and “preventative” Botox wasn’t the move https://t.co/De2A2V4bKB
