I’m sorry but I was led to believe there would be a reasonable window between pimples and wrinkles. So why am I experiencing them both at the same time? THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

When you figure it out, let me know. I will be 45 in September and these pimples along with crow’s feet are enraging.

On a related note scientists exploring Uranus have discovered that Uranus contains much more methane gas than they originally thought. Does men in lab coats exploring Uranus freak U out or is it a turn on?

I find that sagging skin is worse than the others. However sagging skin usually goes hand in hand with wrinkles. So that’s the absolute worst.

I have a little blonde mustache that’s barely visible. I’m not about to shave it and have the hair grow in darker and thicker. My husband’s bi and said “I’ve been in relationships with dudes with beards you think I care if you have a mustache?” He has no idea how much better he made me feel about it

It won’t come in darker and thicker. That is a myth. I use a face shaver every once in a while and it’s never caused that. It also helps with exfoliation and helps makeup look so smooth.

Serene Malcontent @serenemalcontent.bsky.social

I’m on the autism spectrum and have sensory issues with makeup so I rarely wear it, and if I do, it’s probably just eye makeup. Imagine putting on a mud mask and letting it dry, then walking around with it on all day. That’s what even the highest quality foundation feels like to me.

I hate to break it to you, but... you'll have to change your products, skin care regimen. Walk a fine line (pun intended) between moisturizing, keeping wrinkles at bay, and preventing blemishes. I have years on you and still have the occasional breakout.😳

I thought the same at your age & wanted Barbara Walters to do some investigative journalism on the subject. Never got to make that pitch. I learned three things. One, you can’t fight DNA. If you’re prone to oily skin as a teen, usually means less dry skin as you age. Opposite is also true.

Two, drink a LOT of water. Helps minimize wrinkles & is just generally good for the body. Living is a moist climate doesn’t hurt, either. Three, use a good moisturizer with SUNSCREEN. Ask a dermatologist for recommend ingredients that work for your skin type, not specific brands. Few guess I’m 65.
