She sees wrinkles on other women though and is able to ascertain their approximate age.
It's a perplexing riddle.
I wish! But self-delusion 'r not us here.
I know I look exactly my age - darn it. I just have to be thankful I don't look older than my age.
I'm very well aware I used to be attractive in my 30s and 40s - but have reverted to plain now I'm in my 60s:(0 -
I had my first wrinkle at the age of 45. I have never used make up foundation, due to it drying out my skin. No grey hair either. The thing is I like grey hair. I have a few very light lines under the eyes now. But I am fifty years old. My tip moisturise every night. It does help.0

I mosturise too and take hydrolised collagen daily but i did that to stop dry skin and it worked so i've never stopped doing it. I was thinking of trying out wifey's alginate face mask stuff to see if that is any good for frownie :undecided
Safety concerns
Hydrolyzed collagen, like gelatin, is made from animal by-products, including skin, bones, and connective tissue. It is possible that consumption of hydrolyzed collagen risks contraction of Transmissible spongiform encephalopathy.
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), also known as prion diseases, are a group of progressive conditions that affect the brain (encephalopathies) and nervous system of many animals, including humans. According to the most widespread hypothesis, they are transmitted by prions, though some other data suggest an involvement of a Spiroplasma infection.[1] Mental and physical abilities deteriorate and myriad tiny holes appear in the cortex causing it to appear like a sponge (hence spongiform) when brain tissue obtained at autopsy is examined under a microscope. The disorders cause impairment of brain function, including memory changes, personality changes and problems with movement that worsen over time.“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”

I'm 41 and pretty much wrinkle free, however I found my first grey hair when I was 18 and lets just say I would resemble a badger by now if it wasn't for hair dyeI'm not an AE I'm just an idiot who forgot to update email details, went away for a bit and then tried to come back after the old laptop died

About 28, like most people, whatever they might claim.0

Put it like this it's no accident that your eyesight fading as your wrinkles increase happens around the same time.
I may have them I just can't see them .....0 -
Not a wrinkle yet, aged 52
Although I'm grey, and stopped colouring it last year so now au natural
Mind, I've got a saggy jaw line which is very aging0 -
Hardly anyone on here admits to having any wrinkles. I'm 37 and have reasonable skin, dryness and dehydrated skin being a problem that I try to manage to prevent premature aging but when I smile I have little lines round my eyes and when I move my face there are crinkles that didn't used to be there 5 years ago. Are these not classed as wrinkles? I have never seen any woman over 30 who doesn't have these fine lines to varying degrees.0

17. Frown lines just like my dad. They're not bad though, and I don't really care. I am quite happy expressing myself by frowning!0

I'm amazed by all the people who say they don't have wrinkles, I do and am fairly sure all adults do, to varying degrees. Laughter lines are (small) wrinkles. I can remember girls at school doing eye treatments and using eye creams in sixth form!
I think people must have different opinions as to what wrinkles are. Or they never smile or laugh. Or maybe it's related to poor vision.
I'm fairly sure tiny wrinkles appear before the first grey hair, on most people.
Don't worry about it Spinkz. Most men get increasingly attractive with age.0
