With all the pressures of modern life and social media, it has been revealed that the age women feel most confident in their appearance is 33!
A recent survey on behalf of Healthspan Nurture Replenish, found that when women were that age they felt they were at a weight which suited them, they had no wrinkles or grey hairs, and their hair was in good condition. They also put the confidence down to having a toned stomach.
Celebrities who are currently 33-years-old include The Crown actress Claire Foy, reality TV star Khloe Kardashian and Avengers actress Scarlett Johansson.

There were many reasons given for 33 being the age that women feel most confident, with the most popular being that they felt comfortable with their weight. As women aged they said thinning hair was the worst part, along with getting age spots, wrinkles and losing the elasticity of skin they had in their earlier years.
The survey also found that 62% of women said weight gain was most likely to cause their confidence level drop, along with the condition of their hair and how their teeth look. The study also revealed that 72% of women reckon their overall confidence depends on how they feel about their appearance. However, this isn't always down to being young, with 46% saying self-esteem levels grow as they become more comfortable within themselves.
The study, carried out via OnePoll.com, also found more than 60% said a bad hair day can have a huge effect on their self-esteem, whilst more 50% reckon a day can be wrecked by bad skin.
