Of your skin at 50s?

I'm 40 and planning for the future. The last few years I've focused on health and also just maintaining appearance. I think if your chasing looking 25 at 50 then you will be miserable your full life. A better approach is too look a good 50 year old.

All through my 30s I was working in an outdoor very stressful job. Our winters here (UK) seriously take a toll on your appearance. I noticed after a couple years that my face aged dramatically. I also noticed the guys who had been their 20+ years looked so weathered and beaten. Their bodies were also a mess ie herniated discs. Joint issues etc. They basically just lived on painkillers everyday.

I stopped that job. I'm more than happy to take a pay cut to maintain my health. I know some people don't see it this way but it's my body.

I started incorporating skin care. My partner is great for all of this and loves doing it lol.

Do you guys take an approach to also keep your skin as good as you possibly can? I have a few friends who say it's 'gay' and only women wear face creams. I completely disagree. I don't fancy looking like a ballsack at 50. My friends already look rough from smoking and booze. I don't touch any of these thankfully.

Just interested if any of you do?

Their are sooooo many products on the market.

What skin care products really made an actual difference? I'm currently using Tretonoin + Moisturiser. I use an spf during the day also. I'm looking to really take care of my skin. Tretonoin seems to be the most studied and proven topical.

What topical or injectable made an actual difference?

I'm looking more long term also. I've researched a few ingredients but alot seem hit or miss.

He has no interest for my partner.

We've had two threesomes prior and the friend just focuses all the attention to me. My partner says he genuinely doesn't care but it bothers the life out of me. It makes the threesome uncomfortable because my partner is my #1 and I put full attention into him.

He's asked for another 'threesome' and I've just said no. My partner says he stills enjoys it and I've not too worry about it. I think my partner gets horny at another guy playing with me.

I still don't feel comfortable at him being left out. Obviously I don't leave him out but just seeing the friend not having any interest really upsets me.

Anyway my answer is still no but I know they may keep trying.

Why do people ask for a threesome then just completely neglect the 3rd? I couldn't do that with someone.

Though I've heard it's common in threesomes.

Do I just stand by my answer.... No? I genuinely don't care if it never happens again.

Supplements make me feel much better?

I done a few tests including food intolerances. A blood dao test. Celiac test etc. All my tests looked good.

I still suffer with nasal congestion. Headaches. Fatigue etc. I bought some daofood and took it prior to meals and just noticed how much better I felt. I kinda got use to feeling better. I ran out of daofood and just forgot about it. After a few days all the symptoms returned. I remembered the DAO and purchased more. Started it again and I feel much better.

The difference is drastic tbh. Not just a placebo sort of effect.

Can these tests be normal but your still struggling with histamine issues?
