Makeup and skincare industry deliberately fucks up your skin to make you buy even more products trying to "fix it".

All of cases of these zoomers aging bad is basically sun damage, some men masculanizing early and looking mature, overweight, balding or just low hormones + stress
This is how Jack Nichols looked at 32 btw

Wear sun sunscreen and/or avoid the sun if you don't want to look like that at a young age.

As attractive as this pic is it's hilarious that so many think that this is what a woman without makeup looks like. It's like 9/10 when men think a woman looks good "with zero makeup" it turns out it's just simply a woman wearing minimal makeup or natural looking makeup. A woman with ACTUAL zero makeup often gets told she looks sick.

That girl basically must have aimed a UV laser directly at her face nonstop for all 26 of those years, that ain't fucking normal at all
But also I suspect >>18678666 too. I mean constantly putting funky shit on your face caked on and then washed off with whatever acidic/basic removers over and over for years probably makes the skin a lot less happy than just leaving it the fuck alone. If you never fucking touch it, or move it really aka smile/emote, and keep it out of sunlight, it might look surprisingly OK even with little shits given. Which is very fucking ironic compared to these tryhard shitters with horrible +10/20 year aged skin who care about this way fucking more.

what happen to a paper if you draw and erase on it every single day?
they paint their face, they strip the paint, every single day
of course they will end up with a paper thin crumpled skin
tell this to a woman and she will get angry
they will never admit makeup is a scam for their health and social relationships

Huh. Funny. That's my literal least favorite one. My favorites are conveniently the ones at the ends, aka first from the left as well as the first from the right.
The first from the left doesn't even look 40. She could even pass for like late 20s/early 30s. I also like the curly hair of the first one from the right be it real or fake and her face shape is somewhat masculine but somehow at the same time really attractive and I love her tan.

Just wear sunscreen and do other basic skincare
(moisturizer, treitinoin, toner, vaseline is all you need)

Covid jabs, being inundated with wifi, bluetooth, various other forms of electromagnetic radiation since ostensibly birth. A modern diet of processed shit designed to fuck us up, which segues into my next point: Because pharmaceuticals and cosmetics are specifically designed to make you A.) sicker and B.) uglier, thus you are in an endless loop to constantly try and fix yourself, like trying to hold dry sand and it falling between your fingertips. It's fucking dire to say the least cunt.

my girlfriend is 30 and goes to the beach every day but she wears so much sunscreen her skin doesn't even end up tanning and she puts lotion on her whole body after showering so her skin is straight up amazing. i'd consider my skin just average but my skin looks and feels like shit compared to her

Good stuff m8. Though genetics also play a major part in it. I notice the frecklier thin skinned anglo-celtic type girls end up getting those really thin hairline wrinkles a lot faster in this climate than, say, a slightly more tanned and oilier skinned southern european girl. Natural oil production in skin plays a vital factor too, because convection in this climate easily sucks the moisture right out of you (unless you moisturise and/or are an oily greek).
>>
>>18679909
yeah my girlfriend is slightly tanned naturally. that might also play a part. i also know that girls with tanned skin tend to apply lotion more to avoid looking ashy. technically pale people can get ashy too but the rule is basically the lighter the skin the less it will show and the darker the skin the more it will show

from my experience zoomers in their 20s either look like bogged geriatrics, or could pose as an 8th grader w/o being suspected
no in-between
t. 24 year old zoomer who subbed at a few high schools before and often rudely mistaken as a student by teachers

This is it. This stuff never family was a thing besides maybe some cold cream for old ladies at night and everyone looked fine. Zoomers were the first Gen to do it and they're the ones who "mysteriously" look like crap now

She's wearing TONS of makeup, look at her forehead. She's covering up that nasty sun damage spotting all over her face with heavy "foundation" and lots of blush and eyeliner and a very unflattering light pink lipstick.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph. Thanks for reminding me that being gay isn't all bad. Imagine how much worse they'd look without the makeup. Of course, that's part of what did this to them in the first place.
Heterobros, what's it like being "romantic" with someone whose real face you've never even seen? I truly can't imagine.

Its honestly sad. We hired a 19 girl at our job recently and she has those lines on the corner of her mouth that make her face look aged. Would still hit but its like buying a car with a nice exterior but high milage and signs of heavy ware.

I feel that's cope, skincare is genuinely a minor factor in how your skin actually looks barring some exceptions.
75% of how your skin looks is lifestyle, diet, sleep and genetics. 20% is whether or not you use SPF cream daily, and remaining 5% is skincare.
Like me and my GF are both doing skincare since 18 years old give or take, she has better diet and gets more exercise, but I sleep much better and genuinely don't get stressed at all.
Her skin doesn't look very good without makeup, discoloration, wrinkles you name it, she even has some deep ones she used botox to smooth over. And me despite how emotive my face is i just get mild laugh lines at 27.
I use SPF 50 24/7 since 20 years old, she doesn't, she gets stressed all the fucking time over social bullshit, i'm an autist so i don't. Apart from that we use a similar amount of skincare, and I do genuinely see a difference in my skin looking brighter and cleaner whenever i re-start my routine after coming back from vacation during which i only used the basics (SPF cream and wash with warm water)
As a zilenial or whatever the fuck it's called, I have a pretty big cross-section of friends age wise and I can tell you my younger friends sleep like shit, eat like shit, are constantly ass-mad or stressed because of some insta/tik-tok influencer shit and eat/drink some form of chemicals even when they exercise. Even if they used bad skincare that would be a drop in the bucket of what their skin has to deal with.

People aren't ready to have this conversation, but it's the age of consent.
Age of the mother does not matter: if an older man has children his children inherit the epigenetic defects he's accumulated throughout his life. Not just physical problems; older fathers increase the prevalence of mental disorders and autism.
So the older the father the less healthy the child.
People delaying having children into well past their prime physical health is having disastrous effects on future generations.
Good luck ever reversing this though, as it's become the moralfag position to be pro-degeneration of the species.
