Wrinkles

[blushing]

Do you have any wrinkles on your face yet? Or any fine lines? If you do when did you get your first one?

I am asking because I am now 30 years old and I don't have any wrinkles or fine lines yet, but everyday I wake up and expect to find one. I am thinking though being very overweight is helping the cause and when I lose weight that I might be a bit more wrinkly.

I have fine lines around my eyes and on my forehead, and one or two slightly deeper lines on my forehead, but I'm also 43. I use SPF religiously, though I'm outside a lot due to sports, so I probably have more wrinkles than I would otherwise. I didn't really start to see much in terms of wrinkles until my late 30s. SPF and a fat face helps!

I just asked H. He says I don't have any (I'm 45). I do know that I have a few lines under my eyes from rubbing them (allergies) but I've had those lines since I was in HS.

I think I have some lines around the corners of my eyes if I give a really big smile. If I raise my eyebrows I also have forehead lines.

I'm starting to get fine lines at the corner of my eyes. I blame my love of the sun and the fact that I squinted a lot for years before getting my vision fixed. I do get told I look younger than I am (almost 35), so I'll side with uk and say a fat face helps!

I am 27 and have a few wrinkles. I also still have pretty problematic acne so I think it's pretty damn unfair.

My crow's feet when I smile are definitely deepening (I'm 29). Just sort of fine lines when I'm not smiling.

I use SPF added moisturizer everyday.

I'm 29 and have noticed lines across my forehead recently.

I plan to Botox the shit out of them when I save up the cash and courage to do so.

Flame me.

I'm 38 and am still dealing with teen-age like acne. It's so unfair! But I have not noticed any wrinkles. I blame my super oily skin for both.

This exactly. I don't really mind wrinkles as long as they're from smiling. :-)

Yeah, I feel like my super oily skin and huge zits should save me from wrinkles. But apparently that is not the case.

You Botox those bitches girl! I totally would too.
No wrinkles yet (I'm 33) but it's got to be any day now with all the smiling I do.

Ok. Seriously? You're going to shoot up your face with toxins to get rid of a few lines? Have you ever looked at some of the famous people who use Botox and can't move their face into normal expressions? I think it looks completely unnatural and would MUCH rather have a few wrinkles. You're not going to escape them forever anyway.

Done flaming. :-) It's your choice, carry on.

Sunscreen is really great. Just saying...

That is EXACTLY my intent!

I think if you start young and use Botox prevention as much as possible one can avoid the celeb "smooth face/old lady neck" look that is so prevalent in Hollywood.

:Y:

But yes, your choice. That's the beauty of the world, right? Freedom to spend our money on pretty much whatever silly thing we want. I spend mine on overpriced chips.

I wouldn't look at celebrities, they all seem to overdo it thus giving a bad name to the perfectly common and unexaggerated practice of having a little botox injected to prevent small wrinkles from turning into unappealing canyons much too soon. Some people are more prone to them and I see no harm in having that fixed anymore than when people get their teeth fixed or wear contacts 'cause they don't like wearing eye glasses. Besides, friends/acquaintances of mine have had a couple of "touches" and I would have NEVER said they did. All it takes is a doctor that understands the aesthetics of one's face and works with it.
