Your skin absorbs water and becomes a bit larger. Just as if you were wearing clothes that are too big for you, the extra area of your skin develops folds and creases to fit your body.

OK your skin is coated with oil because it is kinda like a sponge and can hold a lot of water. but if it were to let the water in it would become sensitive and you would get hurt easier.
when your in water that oil cannot reproduce as fast as it is being washed away so more water enters the skin which in turn makes in loose and full of wrinkles like an old lady.

It has to do with the the way your fingers are made. The tips of fingers and toes are covered by a tough, thick layer of skin. When they are soaked for a prolonged period it absorbs water and expands. However, there is no room for this expansion on fingers and toes, so the skin buckles and you get wrinkles.

First depending your age, second the more time your fingers in water the blood circulation do not reach the skin surface due to some reason..

the skin on your finger is a very thin tissue. When you are in water for a long period of time the tissue fold like waves because the pores open up
