EN: Looks old; having an aged appearance
The result of stress, puyat (lack of sleep), and forgetting your skincare routine. It's what your tita says about you when you haven't seen her in a year and you've been working OT in a BPO. 'Hala, iho/iha, you're **mukhang matanda** na!' is the unofficial greeting.
Combination of 'mukha' (face/looks) and 'matanda' (old).
A common descriptive phrase. Can be considered rude if said directly to someone, but often used in gossip or as a self-deprecating comment.
