Am I too young to have wrinkles?

I am 26 years old, am an avid user of sunscreen, have a fair complexion (although I can tan without burning), and do not wear makeup. I eat well (no junk or fast food, no sodas) and drink water as much as possible. I find myself baffled by creases that have appeared on my forehead. I have


two horizontal lines coming in from either side of my upper forehead, about 2-3 inches long on either side. They don't appear as wrinkles or creases, but rather as indentations, as though my head had been resting on something. I


do not often wear hats, although I do climb and wear helmets at those times. I feel I take good care of myself and my skin, and am too young to reallythink that they are wrinkles. I am just wondering what these lines might be, and what might help me in reducing their appearance.

i think you could moisturize your skin more. i was born with eczema so i have had my share of learning about skin care. Vaseline intensive care lotion is a pretty good skin care product. it's been effective and it is inexpensive. i've also heard that sprouts are good for rejuvenating cell matter. you could work them into your diet.


i have located a skin care sight for you to peruse. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_care . i really hope your concern is remedied.


take care.

No really, it sounds like you have done all the right things, so it's probably just a genetic thing. I am 23 and starting to get crows feet around my eyes, my bf (23) has the same sort of thing as you on his forehead. I personally do not get hung up about it - I actually think it does give us character. Something I noticed is that I squint a lot in the sun so that may have contributed to mine... My bf frowns thoughtfully when he is concentrating very hard - which has probably added to his. So maybe try to be concious of making your expression neutral... But it really probably is genetic aswell!
Reply:If your lines are permanently present, then observe whether they get worse with movement. If they do then its an expression line caused by muscle contractions. To treat this they can be reduced in appearance with a glycolic acid product. If they don't get worse with movement then they are static lines caused by a lack of collagen and elastin. To treat this use antioxidants, vitamin A and peptides to get the bounce back.
Reply:Hydration is the key, I use a water based product that has been tested at 100% hydration and my face shows it. Greak on wrinkles too. I use the eye cream on my upper lip area and works. NO PARABENS OR PRESERVATIVES. It is the only skin care that the Japan Government has certified as 100% natural. Most products are giving us breast cancer with the preservatives and parabens. Check out your leading brands. They use harmful chemicals to make us look good. We are all going ot be pretty in a casket. Methyl Parabens, and every other kind of paraben. Go to the breast cancer site and research parabens and you will toss you products. I buy it from a gal named Allison. She gave me the site called www.revolutionaryskincare.info. her email is allidari@yahoo.ca.
Reply:Sounds like you take pretty good care of yourself. How about moisturizer? Be sure you use it - both men and women need it - skin is skin! Do you squint your eyes a lot (maybe from being in the sun, or from reading)? It could be that you need either glasses or different sunglasses to shade a larger portion of your eyes from sun and to protect from wind. Start really paying attention to when you squint, and what is causing you to do so.
