Who over 45 views challenges on TikTok? Or even over 35 ish? I am serious.


NP. I’ve seen them on Instagram.

I agree with some of the basic stuff like flexibility. Also I got progressive glasses and contacts as soon as I needed them. You look old when you cannot read your work or phone. I’m not sure why people resist that one.

A lot is genetic, especially skin thickness and resistance to wrinkling.
I do Botox to lift my forehead and around my jaw, my pruny mouth (never smoked) is my downfall. I must have had resting b face too much.

Being social has nothing to do with skincare.

Dp. No, but it brings happiness, which makes pp look good. Mean, unhappy people don't look that good when they're older. Being nice, in shape and happy goes a long way in making older people look good. Also, no booze.

You’re wrong. My very social friend is a smoker and drinks a lot when going out. She looks older than her age.

No smoking and minimal drinking. Lots of water.

Plenty of sleep. Nothing ages you more than lack of sleep.

Stay out of the sun. Sunscreen.

Stay within weight.

Retin-A every night at highest strength your skin can tolerate.

You think only nice and happy people are social? And mean and unhappy people aren’t? Again, has nothing to do with skincare.

Mom of 3 older DC, 55. I avoid the sun, wear sunblock daily and always wear sunglasses.
I’ve had the same skincare regimen I was 12: wash face with Dove soap, apply Ponds cream at night and in a.m. Garnier or Neutrogena moisturizer w/ SPF (obviously those are new products)

I had severe eczema as a child (all over my face) and so had to sleep with heavy moisturizer on my face - sometimes I’d sleep with a Vaseline face mask of sorts. Sometimes still do this.

I also try to keep my weight steady - learned that fast gain/loss causes stretch marks/sagging skin.

Extremely light drinker. Maybe a sip of champagne on a special occasion or I’ll share a mixed drink with DH.

Near daily exerciser - walking and hiking and yoga. Mostly vegetarian. Haven’t had beef in decades and lifelong fish and shellfish allergy. Choosy to picky eater - tend to eat low sugar. Never drink colas or sodas.

Eat well and stay in shape. It’s nutrition more than gym. don’t do any interventions like Botox but I would NEVER stop coloring my hair. And very good skin care routine. Serums, eye cream from Dr Sturm and La Mer.

I have Botox regularly. It makes a world of difference.

What are you doing to stay looking good? I am 46 and hitting the wall hard, like all at once. I’m open to any ideas! Every category. Haha.
