What physical things could I draw for ‘human aging’?

As in, things i can put down infront of myself and draw…
Ideas so far: anti wrinkle cream, elderly faces/hands
Please help and thankyou in advance :)

Girl Talk answers:

An old man holding his grandson
a young person looking in the mirror and seeing themselves as an older person
a walking cane and a skipping rope
and baby’s hand clutching an elderly finger
a close up of 2 eye areas – one of an elderly person (wrinkled, deteriorating etc) and one of a child (round smooth skin etc)

Charles asks…

A good Face Cream for a Guy? Avon…etc?

My husband is picky. He doesn’t want anything too “girly” too “greasy”, “to lotion-y” trust me I can’t even get him to moisturize his hands!

I think he may like the Avon’s Advanced All-in-one in the jar

any other suggestions? I’d like it to “moisturize” him as well as maybe slough his skin or something like that (anti-aging). Not expensive, either.

Girl Talk answers:

I use Kiss My Face it’s really good and a little goes a long way

Donald asks…

Can general moisturizers be used on the face? (some)?

Lets say one like this, Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion

http://www.cetaphil.com/Products/Moistur…

I don’t want to pay a lot of money for a little tub that comes with grandiose anti-aging claims (Estee Lauder et al). I have read a bit about the subject and have some experience, I understand some are lighter than others – hand creams being particularly thick. Am I right to presume if it’s light and non-irritating (Cetaphil) then you can put it on your face? Unfortunately these more general moisturizers often don’t specially tell you that they can/cannot be put on the face. Is there any specific criteria that makes a moisturizer appropriate for face use? Do you use generals on your face?
I am male but aren’t a big fan of the male cosmetic lines as the main reason they exist is so stupid homophobic men can safely indulge in skin care without placing themselves in a product section which is predominantly the domain of ladies.

Girl Talk answers:

I use cetaphil on my face, and it works great.

Daniel asks…

Anti-Wrinkles?

Uh, I’m only 15 years old but I already got kinda wrinkles on my forehead and my hands. The one’s on my forehead isn’t like those supervisible ones, but like if you look a bit closer, you can see them. My wrinkles come from the fact that I lost like…10ish pounds from last year… at least that’s what my friends and mom told me.

Is there any creams for anti-wrinkle? I don’t want to use any random one because it might mess up my skin, since anti-wrinkle creams aren’t usually for my age group…

(BTW, I was about 115ish last year, and now I’m 103…Height: 5’2. Just in case, y’all thought I was obese or anorexic…I’m normal.)
But uhm…I don’t know how to reply to the answers…><

Uh…I get tanned a lot from the sun. But I'd rather die then go to a tanning salon or something. But thanks. I'll stay outta the sun…it'll be hard though. I'm an outside person.

Girl Talk answers:

I hate to disagree with your friends and Mom, but I don’t think those wrinkles are caused from weight loss. I am also 5’2″ – have gained and lost 10 lbs on more than a few occasions. This sounds like ultra-violet damage to me. Either tanning salon or sun damage, especially if you are by nature a relatively fair-skinned person (like myself).
My advice, stay out of the sun and away from tanning beds as much as possible. If you must go out, make certain that use use a GOOD sunscreen (30 SPF). If you feel you must tan in salons (I strongly discourage this), then at least use a bed that allows you to turn off the face feature.
If tanning is an issue for you, please consider some of the self-tanners. There are some excellent ones on the market now that don’t turn you orange, just make sure you use one suit for your skin tone (I like Neutrogena). By that I mean don’t try to go from fair to dark overnight or you’ll get that “broange” color that looks so fake.
Now to answer your original question – I like Oil of Olay. It’s relatively cheap and works as good as any high dollar moisturizer I’ve found in High end stores.
Hope this helps.
