Thanks, DCA Blondie.

Don't get me wrong, I really do love the condition of my skin. I am just wondering if I really need to spend so much money to maintain it for the next 30 or 40 (or however many I get) years.

My dermatologist says it is all genes and staying out of the sun, but I think the unguents and potients help. Here is a picture of my little brother and sister and me. We all have the same genes, but they both live in Florida and are golfing maniacs.

I was a sun worshipper and always as dark as my brother until I had to have a biopsy on a spot on my face in my 40s. At the time, my doc convinced me to stay out of the sun, or at least wear sun screen and a hat if I couldn't avoid it. That has probably saved me hundreds of wrinkles.

letiole is sooooooooooo right about the water. I drink scads.
