    my dad looks younger than he is...I know we (me and the 4 other siblings) sucked the youth out of my mom so uh.... but yeah, I worry about getting older.

    I still get carded so I guess I'm good for now.

    I think abt it from time to time but it doesn't worry me . Now that I'm older I realize things like nutrition and exercise and not stressing are probably the best things you can do to stay looking young. So I'm trying to improve upon these things in my life. Also I always wear suncreen. My mom 54 and could pass for 40. Hardly has any wrinkles. She says its bc she has always taken care of her skin. From the time I was old enough to walk she was always telling me "put on suncreen you know you fairskinned" lol

    Nah, not at all. My family members look young as hell for their age so I don't think it's a problem. Usually white women are more worried about that because they wrinkle up quite a bit more than black women. And u got both sides Roscoe so :-/ idk...but then again u got that vanessa williams type swag so I think you'll be fine

    And Kat looks spanish so she'll be aiight lol

    My mother has always looked at least a good decade younger than she actually was and no one believes her or my fathers age.
    I looked older when I was younger and still get carded from time to time and ladies, not even men, females young and old always look shocked when they find out my age. Just had a 19 year old and a 50+ year old tell me I look 22 (in the face) :)

    I still can't stand the thought of aging and so I work out, drinks lots of water and moisturize, moisturize and moisturize.

    Lol. Actually, no. But the older you become, every year you get deducted from your age counts. Lol @ people guessing my age and I'm all "YES!" and when I tell them my age they laugh. Some guy said I look 18 before :/ He must have been on something though.

    I"m not, my parents look great.

    And I'm totally not trying to bring this up but if I was white/lighter complexion I'd be scared sh*tless. I dont think I've ever seen them age well.

    I worry bout it.
    I hate wrinkles, especially laugh lines.
    I'm 17 and plan to get a lil 'tox here and there at 25, they say prevention is better that cure, so starting young is recommended.

    not necessarily because i'm still real young looking. one thing i've started noticing is that my hands get a lil drier so i have to moisturize a lot more. my skin overall seems like it a little drier. i just try to be more regimented with my skin care to keep it up.

    like now i slather lotion on my hands and feet and put on gloves and socks be4 i go to bed. i stopped going to bed with my make-up on and have been more careful to not stress myself out, stress is a big factor in aging.

    Lady @ the clinic told me to put A&D Ointment on my hands and wear gloves to bed. She was asking me if my hands hurt b/c they're so rough. I bought the A&D and never felt like doing the glove thing.




    So I started putting the A&D on my ? after I baby powder my nuts when I get out of the shower. Then I tuck it away in some boxer briefs.


    So yeah, you should try A&D Ointment before you glove up.
