My "dear friend" is 42, and works out and is in good shape, but she has some wrinkles, gravity has taken it's toll on her bust, and military related injuries make it difficult for her to walk. I wouldn't swap her for 2 each 20 year olds.

Stay out of the sun. Don’t smoke. Drink lots of water. Use the greasiest moisturizer you can find. (I have even used Bag Balm and Vaseline in small amounts) Keep your face exfoliated. Buff-Puffs are awesome! Dead skin wrinkles. Keep it exfoliated so there is always new skin at the surface. The best cream (?) I’ve ever used is Weleeda Skin Food in the bright green tube.

I think you all might be on to something. I have allergies flaring up and I’ve been exhausted for weeks. Might be time to see the doc.

Begone wicked man, begone.

It’s a long story. I’ll send you a message in the mail. It will take a while.

My grandmother claimed the strongest astringent(that means skin shrinking or tightening agent) known to man was preparation H.

After checking wikipedia, maybe grandma was onto something. It appears the canadian formula of preparation H is a popular wrinkle remover. Grandma used it under the eyes and on the area where crows feet develop and also where sideburns are. Shrinking this region of skin has the effect of lifting your face and pulling wrinkles tight...essentially a mild face lift without surgery.

If you have never seen an allergist...get ready to become a human pin bag. They will prick you with everything under the sun to see what you are allergic to. And don’t be surprised if the Allergist asks you if you like little pricks! :P

Have you tried it yourself?

Thank you! Saved!

You’re such a sweetie! It’s good to hear that some men appreciate a “seasoned” woman. :)

I think that eating greasy stuff makes your pores larger too.

Not everyone wrinkles.

If you keep gaining weight, it keeps pulling your wrinkles tight.

Just don’t ever lose weight. Then you become a big YIKES, like that helen thomas pic.

LOL

I’ve been the pin cushion. :( But it’s been a few years and something is bugging the crap out of my sinuses this summer. Different that before.

My husband is so sick of me being sick that he’s threatening to move me back to Arizona. I do NOT want to leave Texas!

This is right up my ally.
My Must Haves: Perricone MD High Potency Amine Complex Face Lift. It's expensive, but one bottle lasts me about 6 months. I use just a few drops each morning. Before I found it, I spent way more on crap that doesn't work.
For pores my miracle find: Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch. I put it on last and pores disappear.
Any other questions let me know. Have you ever been to a Sephora store? I'm like a kid in a candy store!

I *KNEW* chocolate was the cure! lol!
