Re: I thought my 30s would mean...

  • I'm almost 36, and I still have to use acne-fighting stuff in order to have a remotely zit-free face.

    I'm sure it's not as bad as it seems, but make sure the photog Photoshops your face before the pic is posted just in case!

  • Yeah, I still get them too and I'm almost 34.  Especially as my hormones re-adjust!

  • I stopped taking BCPs last May, and my face has been a lot less clear ever since.  It makes me look really young.

    Embarrassing story about that:  A couple weeks ago, DH & I went out on a lazy Saturday for coffee at Perfect Blend in Delmar.  I was just in jeans & a college hoodie, hair in a ponytail.  We were ordering, and I was poking around not paying attention.  A woman, probably a proud parent of a college-bound high school senior looks at me, turns to DH and says, "oh!  so when does your daughter leave for Cornell?"

    I'm 28.  He's 31.  Ooft.

  • He was so surprised that for once in his life, he didn't have a funny comeback.  He just kind of mumbled something appropriate to her assumptions, and turned away.  

    I felt bad for him, but it was pretty funny.

  • Ugh, I hear you.  All I want is clear skin for a bit, before I get wrinkles!
