Habits that make you look older?

[Bolshevik***]

An older bum.

And there is a difference between not shaving a week and not shaving 5 years.

but when i shaved i didn't look like a bum.

i don't know how much more facial hair i'd have if i didn't shave in 5 years. probably not that much more. it just seems to stop growing after a while.

It wasn't about looking like a bum either way. First you looked normal then you looked like a bum and probably a bit older. Not that I've seen you. It's not a fail proof way to look older, I have to admit. Some do, some don't.

I think Brock does.

most lotions have alcohol in them, which dries the hell out of your skin.

i've heard semen is good for your skin. or maybe that's just something i made up. i can't remember :icon_lol:

Sauce?

The Mayo Clinic is still endorsing moisturizer:

February 24, 2012
Dear Mayo Clinic:
I'm a 42-year-old woman, and lately I've noticed more wrinkles starting to show on my face. Ads for "amazing" anti-wrinkle potions are everywhere. Is there anything that will really work to lessen the wrinkles I have and prevent new ones from appearing?

Answer:
Wrinkles are a normal part of aging. Although you can't eliminate wrinkles completely, you can take steps to make them less noticeable.

Two big risk factors for developing wrinkles are aging and ultraviolet light. You cannot control the aging process, but you can reduce your exposure to ultraviolent light. The best thing you can do for your skin is to habitually use sunscreen on all exposed body parts. On days you are not out in the sun for long periods, use sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 15 to 30. When you spend time outdoors on a sunny day, use sunscreen with an SPF of 30 to 50.

Smoking is a significant risk factor for developing wrinkles, in addition to being bad for your health in many other dangerous ways. Smoking has by-products that break down the collagen and elastin that help support the tissue in your skin. That can speed up the aging process and make your skin more wrinkled. If you are worried about how your skin looks and you smoke, you should stop.

Another key step to reducing wrinkles is to keep your skin well moisturized. Dry skin creates wrinkles. Use a high-quality moisturizer on your skin twice a day, once in the morning and once at night before you go to bed.

Maybe if you live in Miami or something, you may as well not use moisturiser. If it's cold and dry I don't see how it's worse than letting your skin crack.

fapping in the morning instead of at night

I heard that doing it in the morning actually boosts your testosterone

Well if I don't use moisturizer in the winter, I'll go full on Freddie Kruger.

That makes me look a bit older.

how about using aloe, cocoa butter, or coconut oil?

As the tilt says, what habits make u age faster?

Biggest question - does smoking cigarettes really make you look older faster?

Yes, smoking is just about the worst thing out there for making your skin age faster.

Other factors include sun exposure, stress, drinking, lack of physical activity, obesity, and (obviously) drug use.

"Some of the worst vices of people include smoking and drinking. They

Yeah, I've smoked off and on for about 13 years or so and I've always looked really young for my age but I've noticed real wrinkles forming around my eyes now. Funny, I've quit a few times and health was never enough of a motivating factor to keep me off of the cigarettes, maybe vanity will.

Meth will age you quickly. Drugs are generally bad for you all around.

 

[Pupi]

Cigarettes, drug abuse, alcohol, tanning, eating red meat, and not exercising all make you age faster.

I heard straining too hard while shitting adds 5-10years in your facial features.

Is this true?

i've heard of people dying on the can because they were having some serious trouble with a stubborn bowel movement.

Pretty sure any beach hobby will age you due to the Sun always blasting your face.

Not sure, but I DO know that driving around our area will make you age faster. Too much damn traffic for such an area that is not that big...
