^^is that you again Adam?

Wow, yeah if that's you, then goodness, you've taken good care of your skin. I take it though that you've always had a smooth under eye area, so maybe you're just lucky in that sense... After all, the eyes are the one things that can either make or break you age-wise.

My under eyes are really really bad, I use http://www.amazon.co...x/dp/B004P2LL2K it really works unless you have not slept for a week,, in the reviews on amazon people just dont know how to use it. The way I use it is I wash under eyes with cleanser for oily skin, this dries the area out, I then put a very small amount of the FIRMx under my eyes and hit it with a hair dryer, you feel it tightening up, its amazing stuff but very tricky and inconsistent to use. I have not used it in a while as to use it in the way I said could be damaging, anyway these day I get enough sleep but at that time I was constantly partying. At that time also along with my diet that consisted mainly of beer and soju I was peeling weekly.

Hmmm... That sounds like it could be potentially damaging in the long run... I'm surprised you say your eyes are bad though, are we talking in comparison to Asian people (since they usually have ridiculously young under eyes in comparison to caucasians)? Or do you just have really high standards for yourself lol? Now, if they were bad before that last pic, that gives me a lot of hope.

By the way, you must give us the skin secrets that they use over in Korea. I'm definitely trying out that cream you'd mentioned. And are Korean plastic surgeons just ridiculously good or is it just really hard for most white people to tell if they've had plastic surgery?

you look younger in the frontal pic, like 26/27, and the first pic I'd have guessed 29/30. the eyes and overall shininess of skin make you look younger.

This guy seems to never age. Deserves his own thread...lol

Rob Lowe does look very good for his age. But, IMO, he is only 48, not quite old enough for the IHYTSSWLAYATC Hall of Fame. I think his youthful look has as much to do with his extraordinary facial bone structure, particularly his jawline, as anything else. I am having a hard time estimating what age he looks because he is so unique looking, Brad Pitt is the only other person that I can think of that has similar bone structure. It is funny to me to see which comments on that website get rated highest and which get rated lowest (theme: critical thinking is not afforded much value). As some pointed out in the comments, he looks a little flabby to me, but his extraordinary bone structure does not exhibit the weight in his face.

animal control should really remove that bird's nest from his beard

I spose I really do compare myself to Asian people now and haha it is tough... but the Asian people that were born in Australia or have been here over 10yrs they do look much the same as us. My under eyes are about normal for a 30yo unless I am not sleeping or heavy drinking, I'm a programmer with my own software product and have stayed awake for 48hrs or more many times in the past to finish off new features or iron out bugs. Latley I have not been doing this! I'm caring about myself first..

Koreans beauty secrets come down to just intense pressure from their society to look good, from birth they are scolded by their mothers to not scrunch their faces up "dont make wrinkle!" you will hear this all the time in Korea. Other things are pretty standard, splashing cold water on face and using every product they can find is all that I can think of.
I have seen on the web but can not find it anymore, that Korean people have thicker skin than other races.

And the surgery... they do it at a younger age, around 22yo I think that helps a lot with the healing and results, the procedures they do are much more complicated than western doctors, for example facial contouring where the cheek bones are cut away or the jaw line made more angular. They are changing the entire structure of their faces by 3D imaging then cutting and chisling bone away.. so doing a thread face lift or something like that is a walk in the park for these doctors

Every day on the way to my office I see these posters of pretty young girls who get their faces changed to be the Korean ideal of beauty. If it makes them happy or gets them ahead in life thats great but they dont look to bad to me already..

and marcobjj
yes at that time I was doing skin peels weekly, it makes a difference for sure.
It is also just about good light, many celebs photos you see are take with really good portrait lenses, the first phot of mine there was taken by a guy at that party who had a proper camera and he also had a flash that had some kind of plastic covering on it like a big frosted plastic bulb that pointed straight up, the second photo was take with a high end sony camera that probably was in some portrait mode or something that does enhance skin.

I'm also an Independent dev, and will often go through some periods of sleep restriction but once I've completed the milestones for that day(s) I'll give my body as much resting time as it wants. Overall I think it's worked out better than a 9-5 job. I find that forcing yourself to wake up a certain time everyday for years is bad for you, the whole alarm clock experience adds up and puts a ton of stress on the body and brain.
Edited by marcobjj, 07 February 2013 - 01:28 PM.

Haha yes I have never used an alarm clock, it is impossible as I have never been trained to do this. I get stuck in patterns of staying awake all night and I used to leave my phone on so that people can wake me if my server is down or there is something urgent.. but since about a year ago I gave up caring, there is nothing urgent enough to disturb my sleep.

I'm in a process of transition to a fully autonomous/independet dev too. I haven't had a strict daily routine before, but I start to find the additional freedom I start to experience even more refreshing, as in terms of a good rest and stress-free work. Nothing better than doing what you like at yoru own pace.

Oh, and that R.Lowe guy looks damn young.

I am an alarm clock guy. It is the one thing ruining my immortalist lifestyle. I am trying to go to bed earlier so I wake up naturally, but that is tough when you are trying to wake up at 1:15 am every day Monday through Friday.

What makes you have to wakeup at this time?

I have been sleeping very little this last two weeks due to work and also due to some insomnia from switching to ecigs, I really could do with some sleeping tabs or modafinil right now but I am in Australia and there is zero chance of getting a hold of any.

I agree, you do look younger in the frontal picture. May I ask your opinion on the C60? I remember it was the latest thing when I signed up here, but haven't read much about it since.

There is still a lot of talk about C60 in its own forum section http://www.longecity.../415-c60health/

I really cant say if it had placebo or real effects on me. Taking a hyped cool sounding NANO tech supliment really can make you feel all kinds of placebo effects.
There are some fairly wild claims on here and there have been wild claims in the past about other sups that have died off or lessened in popularity.

I am going to take anothe one month supply of it and weight train at the same time, I have got back into training several times so I do know how my body usually grows and the speed at which my strength increases.
On the skin, I applied c60 directly a few times per week over the month I took it and I know that it did not give me any noticeable improvement. Using Vitamin C splashed on my face daily and weekly peels made a very noticeable improvement to my skin.

hi adam
thanks for your message.about c60 oil, no idea cause i dont use it. but thanks for the advice.
im agree with you about vitamine c and peels. thats good. where do you find your vitamine c ? I dont find it in france.
personnaly led and pulsed light (syneron) are very efficient to harmonize the face. revolution for me.
i would try coming soon mesolift (mesotheparie) (very fine injection of vitamines inside )
beside , the spirit is very important. be young inside you. smile share and love.
Edited by bis, 21 February 2013 - 02:02 PM.

Hi, the vitamin C is from owndoc.com it would get to you fast in France. LED light I have looked at and have seen cheap LED bulbs and also hydroponic grow lights on amazon.com in the correct wavelengths of red light, when I try one I will post here.

And maybe the spirit is most important... Having all the life sucked out of you and letting your face droop from not having any expression on your face.

Some people let life beat them down and they get bitter.. it usually takes a few decades for this to happen, so the bitter people we associate with age.

Sylvester Stallone says it well

bis> You look very good for a 40, really, I wouldn't think you are over 30 from that pic, skin is very good. And I'm sure irl you look even younger, as pics are static, people usualy look better in real life.
With a few injections here and there you'd be a "legit 25yo" looks wise. Well done.
Edited by VidX, 23 February 2013 - 01:41 PM.

C60 should never be used topically, it has been shown to cause damage when exposed to UV light.
The best form of vitamin C for topical use is ascorbyl palmitate, because it is lipid soluble.
I agree with having a good spirit, but It won't prevent face sagging that eventually comes with age...nor will any topical cream.
The problem with face sagging, even if its slight , is that it creates a natural frown unless you adopt a permasmile!

Hi guys
thanks for your comment vidx, im happy by my result and only with some natural products.
may be true a few injections like hyaluronic acid will be good but only hyaluronic, i dont want to use botox.
yesterday i bought dr roller, its interesting. i want to try the experience

kevnzword. thanks for you comment. i'm very interesting by your ascorbyl palmitate but very hard to find it in soluble.
do you have a web site where i can buy it ?

thansk a lot
your french friend :-)

You've done well, but my god your 71y/o friend is unbelievable. Does he dye his hair? Any secrets to his youthful appearance or just good genes?
http://www.longecity...attach_id=10883

no its not his true hair. its just a good peruke. but the result is good. he uses hyraunic acide too and a lot
cosmétics. When i met him, he was 60 years et he was very old. He did a incredible relooking.

your friend looks really good for 71. His neck reveals a good deal of his age though. In addition to wearing a hair piece, I think he has a good deal of botox in the forehead, please confirm. And the picture is a bit fuzzy.
AMAZING transfomation from 2005!, I am sure he has had a lot more than botox
eta: the nose looks completely different from 2005 to 2009, very unusal for a man in his 60s to have that drastic a nose job, I am skeptical that it is the same person, do you have any intervening photos

To me he looks great for 47, 34ish. Most likely the asian factor.
