.......Perricone MD High Potency Amine Complex Face Lift.....

They have a new version with amine c(19) that tends to eliminate the problem with psuedohydration of the nucleotide bonds.

Repeated kisses by a 20 something are said to do the job

See a dermatologist. They have all kinds of treatments today that can be very effective.
I also like “Kiss My Face pure C/ester C, which is available at Drugstore.com and Whole Foods:

It’s lightweight and I’m not allergic to it.

That's a good one goat granny. My Mom always tells me that getting old is not for sissies.

“Yes to Tomatoes” is also a nice moisturizer, and it smells wonderful:

Wow, I have to ask how do you know this? I didn’t even know I had nucleotide bonds! But I know nothing hydates like Perricone. I was shocked how thirsty my poor little face must have been before I started using this.

Take 2 grams Ester C each morning and 2 grams each night. I had dark circles under my eyes. I am now 71 and they are gone. It takes a while but it worked for me. Besides the Vit C makes you healthy.

I would never do a face lift. I think women who have them look ugly and artificial.

I have kind of pushed my age a little too. I say I am 69 but I won't really be until this coming Sept. All my life I thought some day I will be 60 but I never thought what it would be like to be 65 or 70 or beyond. Then on my 60th birthday I fell down some cement stairs and could easily have snapped my neck and died. I had a cracked rib, a sprained wrist, a lump on my jaw and various bruises. I have often wondered if the Lord just decided at the last minute not to take me. I am happy that he left me here because my husband has had some health problems and he has needed me. I am grateful for every day the Lord gives me.

If this is a genetics thing, you won’t have much success countering it as you’d prefer.

Generally speaking, what goes ON your face and hair won’t have anywhere near the long term effect that what goes into your body through your mouth has.

Sun exposure is certainly one exception to that, and there are others, but the generalization is much more true than false.

[tuffydoodle]

I was coloring my greys this morning and thinking more about this thread. You are right, what goes into your body is more important that what goes on it. Take care of yourself, eat right and exercise because when you have your health, you have everything. For the rest, put on a little makeup, get a nice hairstyle and keep your grey covered and dress nice every day. Keep your nails manicured and pedicured. That’s about the best that any woman can do.

Be happy and always remember, everyone gets old, if they are lucky.

[savedbygrace]

I’ll disagree with you about the hair coloring (at my own peril, I’m sure).

Gray hair (or even white hair) on a woman with a youthful face and attitude is far sexier than any of the twenty something stick figures being paraded around today as the modern sex symbol standard. Take care what goes into your bodies and your minds.

Ladies, God has given you everything you need to remain attractive and sexy for many years. You don’t need to look to Madison Avenue for advice on your appearance and the products you should buy to achieve that appearance.

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things.

[tuffydoodle]

You are right, of course. I’ve seen some beautiful gray-haired women. And God has given you everything you need to remain attractive but there is certainly nothing wrong with a little makeup, skincare and nailcare. If it makes you feel better about yourself, go for it!

I went to Dr. Denese about 6 years ago. She is the sweetest person on the face of the earth. And a walking advertisement for her skin care. She's a beauty.

[Miss Didi]

I love her story, too...in the first chapter of her book she tells how she came to the US from communism with less than forty dollars to her name.

When my children were small and I had to wash my dishes by hand I developed a terrible rash on my right hand. It was so bad that I had to go to the Doctor and wear a glove a night with a special cream underneath for weeks. The Doctor told me to NEVER use Dawn or any grease cutting detergent because it was cracking my skin open! He told me to buy Dove Dish Detergent and use Valesine Ultra Care for my hands for the rest of my life! Praise God,we soon received a second hand dishwasher from a generous neighbor!
Those were the days!

I wish I could afford Perricone’s skin care! I’ll have to save my pennies. In the meantime, he has a recommended diet that anyone can use. Lots of fish. :)
