7 Causes of Aging Skin, and How to Control Them

Saturday February 7, 2009
I was still in my 20's when my mother reached her 50's, and I remember looking at her one day and wondering if I would be as wrinkle-free as she was when I got to be that age. I am, thankfully, and I attribute that to genetics, liberal use of moisturizers, drinking plenty of water...and avoiding the external causes of aging that I had control over.
