    I'll turn 40 on July 22. Does this mean I have 24 days left before I need to invest in one of these?

    I'll be 40 on July 14. Maybe we can find a two for one deal?

    Being happy and healthy looks better on everyone.
    Photos are me at 42 and then yesterday at 55.
    Do I look the same?? Heck no. But I'm healthy, happy, and above ground!!

    You look amazing! And I love your hair. I'm blonde and I hope mine turns that shade
    eventually.
    FWIW I do think that miserable people look older, whether they've lost weight or not. Although context makes a difference. I used to know a woman who was the most depressing person ever and had nothing good to say about anything or anyone, But she was married to a man 20 years older so people used to tell her she looked young (because she did compared to him). I guess that's one way to appear younger?
    Anyway, people with sparkling eyes and a big smile automatically look younger.

    My sister always said she would celebrate wrinkles and aging skin because they were earned through living. I like her attitude.

    Agree with previous sentiments if you have the $$$ some subtle cosmetic intervention is the only way to go. Or even atleast just getting Fraxel, RF skin tightening things like that. Creams do *kitten* all. And the obvious hydration, good food especially your proteins and vitamin C's etc, silk pillowcase, facial toning exercise may help...
