hahaha!

Febuary, march, April ,may, June ,July,August,September,you are slacking girl,    get yourself back to that gym.

yes you 'might' have a point

i'm 27 and noticing lines round my eyes!!! so i bought some anti wrinkle cream

not bothered about other lines really....just my eyes cos they were my best feature

I have a couple of wrinkles round the eyes and if I didn't colour my hair would probably be nearly grey now, but I'm 43, and a woman of my age has these things.  It shows we have lived.

I'm lucky though, because I have naturally good skin, though I think now the change is starting I am getting a T zone again, and spots like a teenager, but I use SBC cleansers and their collagen moisturiser and find it tightens my skin and leaves it lovely and soft, and lasts for ages and ages because you don't need to buy a body moisturiser, it does face and body.

The only thing I would like is a smaller bust!!

Old sucks

Mebbe that's it with me. The T zone thing. But probably wishful thinking hon.  

What's a T zone

A steak.

draw a line from your nose to the chin,that iis the t zone that is the oily part of your face

I toyed with botox for ages. Chickened out. I've recently invested in L'oreal collagen eye filler and am kinda pleased with the results thus far. Have seen another advert with that dark haired actress bird who keeps banging on about a virtual facelift (another L'oreal thing) so I might try that.

As for grey hair, I went grey at 24. Have to dye my hair once, sometimes twice a month. Have been tempted to just dye the whole lot silver but I'll look like a corpse.

Me too Marg, but I do sooooo wish it still fit me

Karma, ditto

This my lifestyle motto! 

"When I am Old
I will wear Purple!

When I am an old woman,
I shall wear purple - - 
With a red hat which doesn't go,
and doesn't suit me.
And I shall spend my pension
on brandy and summer gloves and satin sandles,
And say we've no money for butter.
I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tired
and gobble up samples in shops
and press alarm bells
and run with my stick along public railings,
and make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
and pick flowers in other people's gardens
and learn to spit!
You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
and eat three pounds of sausages at ago,
or only bread and pickles for a week,
and hoard pens and pencils
and beermats and things in boxes.
But now we must have clothes that keep us dry,
and pay our rent
and not swear in the street,
and set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner
and read the papers.
But maybe I ought to practice a little now?
So people who know me
are not too shocked and surprised
when suddenly I am old,
And start to wear purple!"

 

This is how I feel too, you can't stop the natural decay, but you can choose to welcome the new day and just live anyway 

I like decay.  

Getting older's not so bad, it's much more relaxed.


Youth is wasted on the young though  

Yah, fook the cliches obviously, but I couldn't give a rat's about me age. 

I love that poem!  I always try to wear purple on my birthday.

Wrinkles are a road map to your life.  Crow's feet and laugh lines show that you have enjoyed your trip, I don't think I could give them up.

what about frown lines and bags?

They don't exist in my world!

sadly my 'relaxed face' is a frowny one

I make a point of never starting a fight I can't win.

Plus, I can say to my kids, "See this wrinkle here, you gave me that when you were 7 years old and climbed to the top of that tree and gave me a fright."

I also blame them for the fat I can never shift!

No .... get down to TJ Hughes pronto & purchase some Retinox night cream for the bargain price of £3.99 and in a few days you'll be looking at least 10 years younger

I'm not bothered, I use Vaseline Intensive care lotion everywhere....and Shove a bit of YSL Touche Eclat under me eyes every morning to hide the black rings and all is fine!

I'm just resigned to being a character (non)actor.

Sounds like we have a few QVC shoppers here,SBC,Elemis etc,

You think you've got problems? I've turned into my mum, and she always looked like a miserable old cow! Love you really Mum RIP  

Maggie, don't tell me hubby, he thinks i get all cheap off ebay.

Same here,But do love trying different stuff on there,love a bit of Decleor or L'occitane

Maggie

Maggie, I swear by SBC stuff, having very, very sensitive skin and prone to outbreaks of eczema, I find it's the only body care range that I can use that never gives me an outbreak and in fact helps it if it does, I use the Cotton bath time range and the collagen moisturiser  and Vitamin A moisturiser as well as the cellulite gels, all brilliant, all natural ingredients and more expensive but I think that it saves me money as I haven't had to renew my eczema cream since using the stuff, I usually wait until they are today's special value on there and stock up that way as they do last!

Hi PB,nice to see you around again,hopefully that means your SIL is on the mend.i use the collagen gel,but my favourite is the arnica gel,i could never be without it for aches and pains,i too would like a smaller bust,I'm not massive but only 5ft 1inch,so they look bigger!!.Never happy are we,some people would pay a fortune mine,and they would be very welcome to have them
