Apart from hands, feet and knees, one can easily guess your age by looking at your body parts. It is called body parts betrayal. 

To mention a few, here are the body changes that says more about your age; 

1. The nose gets bigger

Most of us stop growing in height after attaining 18 years of age. However, some body parts keep on growing bigger and bigger and this is common with the nose. The process of growth will stop after you attain 60 years.

Biologically, this happens due to soft tissues, cartilage and muscles that form the nose. Having a big nose shows that you are old enough and you are not underage. However, let's take it with a grain of salt. 

2. Eyelashes get shorter

 It is now lucid that your lashes get shorter as you age. Thyroid issues, improper eyelid care and allergies are believed to be the causing factor. Besides, these conditions are common in ageing people. The eyelashes become thinner and shorter with every passing year.

 3. Freckles dissipate 

People with light skin complexion usually have freckles that start disappearing when they get old. A person is considered old when he or she is over 40 years and this is where the pigmentation spot on the surface of the skin disappears. 

4. Hips get smaller 

This can also betray you by revealing your age. As you keep ageing, the hips attenuate in size.
