Why are wrinkles undesireable?

[K.D. Lightner]

Spitfire -- your wife is stunning and I love her hair.

For 30 years, I wanted to have salt-and-pepper hair that gradually became silver, then white.

Alas, I did not have the pepper to show off the salt. We dark-ash-blonde folks just don't get to show it off -- until, one day, we stand in a floresent light and realize we have a silver aureole around our heads.

It happened to me, now I am a Silver Fox. If I live long enough, I will become an Arctic Fox.

More wrinkly inspiration!

The Swedish designer Gunilla Pontén:

Today (80 in June)

She looks incredible! I have never heard of her but I am amazed at how vibrant she looks - I can't believe she's 80!

I love her make-up too I might add!

Undesireable or not, I think it means you're old. Perhaps you need an ironing!

I absolutely adore Catherine Deneuve, Isabella Rosselini and Isabelle Huppert, they are amazing looking women. I'd like to add a quick word for the beautiful Audrey Hepburn who aged quite naturally yet stayed stunning (I have seen pictures of her wrinklier than these, but can't find any online):

i happen to think wrinkles are great especially what i call happy wrinkles like the ones on eyes and smile lines it means you have smiled a lot in your life, and to me that is attractive[

Ava was a full blown bomb shell at all ages, I only hope I age half that well

Here are some pictures of my mommy. I think she is positively lovely, and I hope when I am 55 that I will be as lovely as she is. (Sorry i am in them all she hates photos and usually only takes them with me because I respect her dislike of having her photo taken)

"I have been using Acid (Retin A Acid cream) since the age of 30, it Realy helps, its only on prescription in the swan River Colony, so it embarrassing at the medical centre, when there is a new Doctor,and I ask for the script, and they have never heard of it!" I have to go through the whole story again!!!!"Doctor I realy do need to look younger!",.............. and it as cheap as chips!"

Beauty of Spirit in people like Audrey Hepburn will always shine through.

Yes, she was a beauty because of her looks when she was younger - and she had a hard life as a teen in War-torn Holland - but she continued to be beautiful because of her graciousness and generous spirit as she aged. So wrinkles didn't age her the way a poor outlook would have!

I've never thought too much about how I look or how I will look as I age. I'm not really that fussed over it. Wrinkles and grey hair will no doubt come. [huh] Just got to keep that happy outlook that means inner beauty will shine through. I personally think I have too many quirks about my looks to be called anything near 'beautiful', but not everyone can be stunning. You just have to work with what you have.

Oh, and genetics sure help! Both my parents look much younger than in their late 60s, although my Dad is super wrinkly from alot of years in the sun whilst my mother who has never liked sunbathing has great skin.

Stay out of the sun! That, and keep smiling.

and Life and Time.

P.S. I love how Charlotte Rampling (above) has beautiful "old eyes" when she's young.

While I'm not scared of a few wrinkles, I do hope I have inherited my mum's skin - she spent years, decades even, going abroad to hot sunny places (my grandad was a travel agent and she worked for him for 15 years, going everywhere, and has had the bug ever since too) and never used the slightest bit of sunscreen until a few years ago. While I obviously would never advocate this, her skin is fantastic and apart from the usual wrinkles - forehead, crows feet and smile lines, she looks absolutely great and at least 10 years younger than 63.

I also have to add drugs. Nothing will age a person faster. The most beautiful woman I ever saw just about looks unreal now due to a life of drugs.
Have you seen the meth ads showing this. Unreal what it does to a human face. One time and you are hooked.

If I could cry a thousand years for those on meth I would. May God help them and those that love them.
