I'm 22 and have wrinkles around my eyes, my husband is the same age and he has gray hairs on his head. Does having kids really advance aging because being so young and having to wear age defineing make-up is almost embarrassing. How old were you when you starting to show signs of ageing?

I just turned 28 and I have some around my eyes. I gave birth to my twins at age 22.
I think that a lot has to with having children.. not having enough time to take care of yourself, not getting enough rest.
It all seems to contribute.

I turn 32 in a week and I have no wrinkles. I'm not sure on the hair. I color my hair so much that I have no idea what color it really is. I'll have to pay closer attention and see. My mom went gray really early so maybe I have a few hiding in there somewhere.
As for the skin, I credit it to drinking lots of water and always moisturizing before bed. While I have no wrinkles I did have very puffy, tired eyes for awhile. I faced a huge tragedy this year and, if anything, that is what causes a person to age. I've learned to deal with the events and I'm looking myself again. I don't think kids age you. My kids keep me young. We're always playing and laughing.

So far I haven't found any wrinkles. (knock on wood) But I noticed when I turned 30 (I'm 33 now with a 7 month old), I spotted a few gray hairs. Hubby says that it's from all the worrying I do.lol! I just buy some dye to try to cover it up. The only reason I want to cover it, is because I don't want my sister to see I'm going gray before her.lol! (She's 46 with 5 kids and 1 grandchild)

People start aging at all different ages, depends on stress, genes, and even environmental factors. I started showing wrinkles around age 25-slight ones around my eyes. If you aren't using a daily facial moisturinzing cream, start now!
Same goes for gray hair, I started to gray around 16.

Aging has a lot to do with how you treat your body and heredity. Stay out of the sun and make sure you don't smoke. If you do go in the sun use a high sunscreen moisturizer on your face. I'm 35, but my dermatologist says I look like I'm 17. I don't like tanning and I don't smoke. Plus, I have been moisturizing my face since I was 14. Eating healthy is also a plus.

I had my first child at the age of 22,and when she was about a year old,I started seeing slight wrinkles around my eyes,and my skin started looking "older" That was a few years ago, and now Ive been wanting to use anti-aging cream and such.It is embarassing,but whatever it takes to take care of yourself and to make yourself look better later on,I think its worth it.

stress has been proven to cause wrinkles and gray hairs, and we all know kids cause some levels of stress but it also comes from genes and heredity

his grey hair is not the old aging kind, it is stress and frustration.. once he calms down and becomes more layed back and patient they will go away..and as for you, you are probably stressing your self out as well, working to hard and doing lots of partying can wore your body out causing early old-aging...try massaging your face and around you eyes...also, open your mouth really big and make funny faces and stretch it out every which way and doing 50 or more eye-squintings relaxes your tenced facial muscles. also NEVER put mud masks or any kind of facial mask directly under and around your eyes because it tightens and when its washed off it loosens causing wrinkle...place the mask AROUND the eye-socket. and also use a firming lotion (you can buy it at walmart)...take care and good luck and relax.. dont wear your body out making your body funtions confused causing your skin, muscles and bones to age twice as fast...making you seem twice your age...take care of your self and dont get angry so fast because that leads to frustration which leads to stess etc (its a far out chain).my mom had 6 kids and does not have one wrinkle or crows feet, she is 41.take care of yourself

I think heredity has something to do with it too. Look at you mom!. Another important factor is smoking, that is the one worst thing you can do to your skin. Also drinking lots of water is very important. Also a positive outlook on life!
