Do E-Cigs make you look old and ugly just like analogs would?

Cincy
I smoked for 30 years. i have vaped for 3. Smoking didn't change my appearance and neither has vaping. Whether I am ugly or not from smoking, my wife doesn't seem to care. As far as being old? Well, ain't nothing we can do about that unless you want to fill your skin with toxins. Isn't that what we were trying to get away from with the cigs? Considering VG and PG are in eliquid my guess is it would smooth the skin. I wouldn't believe anything the government puts out now. Too much horse manure coming from them to further their agenda.

... ever notice that Anniston looks like a boy wearing makeup???

If Jennifer Aniston looks like a boy, then I am the gayest straight guy ever for wanting to hit that. I think she is gorgeous.

Someone check Andria for signs of concussion.

I'm old and I know it! My sisters and daughter in law keep pushing me to color my hair but I'm an old hippy and believe in growing old gracefully! Yes I look older than my sisters who never smoked or baked under the sun covered in baby oil, but I love my long salt and pepper hair! OK, so mostly salt!
I would rather be camping and fishing and Not sitting around worried about my roots needing a touch up!
I'm a 50s classic and proud of it!

My "roots" are now about 6 inches long, and I'm thinking seriously it's time to fix them... just because I like red hair better than gray. :D It's really true that red hair goes gray faster than any other color -- at my age, my mom, whose natural hair is jet black, had hardly any gray at all... mine's at least 50%, now that it's grown out enough that I can really see it. :confused:

Naaaah, I feel fresh, young and hip when I use my tootle puffer. When I break out my mod whoomper, I feel like and older, just gone mad man with steam coming out of my head from all of the stress these young whiper snappers are giving me......aging gracefully here and like fine wine I would say. ;)

It took ten yrs. from 35 to 45 for my light brown hair to go completely white. Genetics there. In my 50's saw a lot of changes in skin tone and fine wrinkles. In my 60's wrinkling accelerated and spotty, dry crepey skin appeared. In my 70's just try to stay clean and not poke my eyeball with the mascara wand trying to color the few lashes that are left !! :(

Spent my youth in hot climes getting as tanned as my fair Scandinavian skin could get. No sun block at that time, and even when it did come on the market was sweated off inside 10 min. playing tennis. 25 yrs. of playing that hobby surely didn't help. OTOH, it kept me fit and helped clear my lungs of smoking. The last 14 yrs. mostly inside; and while I should get 20 min. of sunlight per day, I don't and have no color unless I put it on with a brush.

Mother in her 40's decided she needed to get deeply tanned but did not smoke. Otherwise, she did not spend time outdoors. She had deep wrinkles around her lips and other places by her 50's. Dad smoked from his teens and into his eighties and loved being outsdoors. He was no more wrinkled than mom.

Age, genetics and sunlight can do a "number" on the ol' bod too. After all, people who have never smoked do get "old" looking. :)

If you compare the right side of your face to the left, you will see more wrinkles on the left if you are American. You will see more wrinkles on the right if you are Brit. Think about it. All a matter of sunshine.

I am silver-haired and proud of it. Purple shampoo helps.

Ummm....what? I just thought about it and I'm trying to figure out how you came to this conclusion. Think about it and get back to us.

Driving gives the left side of your face more sun exposure. I have much deeper wrinkles on the left side of my face.

Yes, this is actually true.

Andria, my natural hair color is near black. I got my first gray (actually white) hair at age 22. By 30 I had quite a bit of it. Dark haired people can gray quickly, too. And when we do, we may resemble Cruella DeVille :confused:

Amen Sister! Mine is dark brown, almost black, I have had grey hair since my mid twenties, if I don't color it for a year, it's salt and pepper. I know by the time I hit 50, there's a great possibility that my hair will be all grey/white :) I ain't skeered though!
