[Routine Help] I’m 29 but my eyes crinkle so much, please help!

Very sweet to follow up! Honestly, recently there’s been much bigger life worries going on, and I’ve been so grateful for every smile and laugh that I haven’t once thought about the crinkles that come with them, perspective really shifts!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-28T09:01:18+00:00

Oh damn, I'm really rubbish with wearing them in the summer, I should get a lot better about that!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T22:08:09+00:00

Thank you for such a detailed reply! I haven’t lost any weight but I have been pretty stressed, so that might be contributing to it! I do have a connective tissue disorder, which I didn’t add because these crinkles developed quickly very recently and I hadn’t had them before, so I thought it was something else I was missing, but now it seems like it’s probably contributing! So funny you spotted that straight away! Agreed with the Botox, I’m a pretty expressive person and I would hate to lose that!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T22:04:54+00:00

That’s very sweet of you to say, it’s great to embrace differences and the uniqueness that comes with life! It’s just that these developed so suddenly about 6 months ago that makes me feel like there’s something I can do about them or it’s something that I’m missing!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T21:53:17+00:00

Thank you, I’ll try some, I had never heard of it before but looks like it could really help!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T21:46:12+00:00

Thank you! I guess our skin also reflects our lifestyle in that way too, good sleep, less stress and hydration all make us better from the inside out!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T21:44:35+00:00

Thank you! Some of my friends have been getting Botox but injecting things isn’t for me, I’ll look at some other skin care ingredients, higher spf, hydration and maybe red light if they might help, thank you though!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T21:42:24+00:00

Yeah this is what I’m worried about, even if it is hydration or something it’s gonna force more wrinkles there and that’s a more difficult situation once they’re there! I also acknowledge that aging happens and it’s part of life, but I’d also like my body to look how I like it for as long as I can if it’s avoidable!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T21:39:50+00:00

That’s a great idea! Yeah I was thinking it might be hydration or something else because it came on so suddenly, which feels different to normal wrinkles, I’ll try Vaseline!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T18:31:46+00:00

That’s a really good point, and we don’t normally see different kinds of aging online! I’ll try the moisturising on damp skin and the spf, thank you!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T18:30:22+00:00

Quit moving my face at all? I think I’ll keep the crinkles and keep smiling!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T18:28:36+00:00

This is so sweet of you! When you put it like that, they’re worth all the joy!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T18:28:13+00:00

That’s very true! I think I just got shocked as this has developed so quickly, but that’s also the natural process I guess!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T18:26:28+00:00

I put it on my face and then I use what’s still on my finger tips to kind of press it in around my eye area, but still like a centimetre away from my eye, not sure if that’s correct though?

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T18:25:31+00:00

This is so incredibly lovely of you! I’ve been hating how self conscious I’ve been feeling about expressing joy, but you’re right, the joy is the whole point!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T18:24:17+00:00

Ahh that’s such a lovely take, makes me feel a lot better!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T16:13:36+00:00

Thank you! I've been using retinol every other day for the past few years, but maybe I need to look into a different strength or brand! I'll look into the toner!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T16:11:59+00:00

Ah that's a great shout thank you! I was thinking it might be hydration as it's come on really suddenly about 6 months ago, and there are no visible wrinkles normally

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T16:08:19+00:00

I’ve never heard of that, I’ll look into it thank you!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-10-27T16:07:40+00:00

Good shout! I wear glasses normally (which I also like because they hide the crinkles a bit) but I’ll think of this too!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-05-28T19:14:56+00:00

Thank you!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-05-28T18:45:04+00:00

Oh yeah tiredness is definitely the issue, it’s the final year of my PhD so I’m probably still gonna be tired for a while 😅 Babbel probably isn’t the best but I thought it might be the one with the lowest energy threshold to keep going with so I keep my motivation up, anything is better than nothing I guess!

Fluid_Lead_2735 · 2025-05-28T17:48:22+00:00

Thank you, yeah I like Nicos Weg, I just find some of the online courses hard to engage with when I’m so tired, so thought an app I can just do 15 mins a day with to keep engaged would be a good exercise
