I'm starting to get wrinkly old person skin on my arms.
I'm only 52 (well, in 2 months I'll be 53, but never mind...).

Any wonder creams I can smear over my body to regain my vibrant, youthful looks? Or am I just shit outta luck?

:shrug:

1. Isn't it awful?
Seems like mine appeared overnight (the night after my hormones switched off...)

Anything with shea butter seems to help me.

3. I've heard bathing in the blood of the innocent does wonders for some.
:shrug:

Not really my thing, but hey, different strokes for different folks... :P

4. Hey, I got them Old Man Eyebrows, even though my hair's still black. And I'm
just a few years older than you.

5. You could get fat
It helps to fill out the wrinkles.

12. Nah, sorry - that doesn't help
I'm speaking from experience here - both overweight and have old people's skin developing on my arms. Getting old's a bitch. Of course, it is better than the alternative of not getting old.

13. Shea butter or baby oil
and try to exercise the arms with some small hand weights to tighten the skin.
