Reddit user Nearest distance shared the anti-aging beauty tip in a post.

A habit she developed in her twenties paid off after decades of use.

“I have been using clear medical tape on my face since my late 20s. I am now 55 and I no longer have deep wrinkles,” she said.

“At least, I don’t think so.”

At first she relied on the tape to write her 11 sentences.

“I started using it because I squint a lot due to farsightedness and I noticed that frown lines were appearing between my eyebrows,” she says.

While the taping technique is now popular among skin care enthusiasts, she says she came up with the idea herself in her late 20s.

“I just thought of it one day. There was no social media back then,” she said.

“I’ve always been a cheap, creative hat type.”

Now the tool comes in handy when she wants to treat her skin.

“I also use clear medical tape for other things, like giving my face a little invisible lift here and there if I need it,” she says.

She said she initially started taping her face with “regular packing tape,” but had to switch after discovering a few issues.

“It was too shiny and people at work looked at me like I was crazy and laughed at me because I often wore a hairpiece between my eyebrows during the day. It was so noticeable!” she said.

She noticed a huge difference after she made the necessary changes to save herself from public ridicule.

“I tried to share the hack, but they didn’t believe it would work. They didn’t know I would have the final say,” she said.

In addition to the tape, other lifestyle changes helped her regain the skin she was happy with.

In addition to her healthy eating habits, she explained that she also uses a lot of sunscreen.

“I am a lifelong runner and weightlifter. I don’t drink, don’t smoke, and don’t eat a lot of junk/processed foods,” she said.

“I have a regular skin care routine with Aveeno Positively Ageless products.

“I also live in Seattle and we don’t get sun for about nine months of the year. But even then, I still wear sunscreen religiously.”
