Signs of Aging

by JermynToh on 18 February, 2009

I’m 38 this year which isn’t that old I guess by most people’s standards given that the average life expectancy is now 70 to 80. You’d think things like dry skin wouldn’t start plaguing someone who’s almost half way to being 80!

I don’t often sleep with the air-conditioning, I eat almost only fruits & vegetables and I drink so much water I’m constantly trotting to the loo. Plus I pop a vitamin E pill almost every night before bed. So I can’t figure out the flaking skin that appears when I go 1 or 2 nites without moisturizing.

Sigh … This means I got to moisturize most of my body parts for the rest of my living years. I should maybe look at being a partner in a company manufacturing or distributing moisturizers given how much I’m gonna be spending!!

I wonder if my grandparents had similar problems at 38 when moisturizing wasn’t a common thing..
