I put on lots of sunscreen on my face and arms, and wear a hat. Now I try to get my sun on the parts that have less exposure for an equalization of wear - if only my face was as fresh-skinned as my belly! But my skin still looks younger than most women’s my age - probably because I gave up tanning in my teens and got serious about sun protection a while later.

I’ve come back from a walk in the California hills looking 15 years older than I started, from the sun and the wind, fortunately temporary. Ladies, protect your faces!

You're right, too. A lot of sun, I guess too much, will age the skin. I remember in our 20's meeting a friend's cousin who's family owned a beach club. She had worked outside there all her young life and in her early 20's her face looked at least in the 40's, maybe more.

BTW no joke, I remember Liberace saying his face remained young because he coated it with vaseline every night before bed.
