My Mother-in -law used oil of olay on her face every night without fail. She was ninety five when she passed away and her face was beautiful to see.

stay out of the sun, or wear a hat when you do. wear gloves too, b/c the skin on your hands is a giveaway.
use a foundation w/ an spf of at least 15, even in winter.
don't smoke.
don't drink liquour to excess.
drink plenty of water
Have choosen your parents wisely, because it's not all just how you take care of the skin you have, it's also the skin type you were born w/.
Ask ladies of "a certain age" with your skin type what their skin regimen is, and emulate them, if you like the results.

My sister is 40, I'm 30. People ask which of us is older. (Nobody believes I'm as old as I am either) My sister started using anti-aging makeup from AVON when she was 25. She always wears sunscreened makeup and doesn't spend too much time out in the sun.
Part of it could be genetics, we have good complexions naturally. I never use sunscreen and I love being in the sun. I don't have wrinkles or any of that old looking stuff either.
I think the sun issue is probably the biggest one, and fairly simple to combat.

Well the best thing you can do it start early.
Genetics has some influence. How do the other older women in your family age.
The best thing you can do is follow daily basic skincare.
Stay out of the sun and always use a sunscreen even when it is cloudy and even when it is cold. Wear good quality sunglasses when you go outside.
Wash and moisturize your face everyday.
Don't sleep with makeup.
Drink a lot of water and eat a good diet.

I know for a fact wearing foundation wearing when young is o.k as my mum has worn it since she was about 14 and she looks really good for her age. Don't smoke as that makes you have lots of lines around your mouth and can mess up your skin to, drink lots of water to keep your skin hydrated and wear a moisturiser or foundation with sunscreen x

I use Natural Source Vitamin E cream. You get it from a health food shop. It isn't anywhere near as expensive as other creams and leaves your skin really soft. It was recommended to me by a plastic surgeon when I had a pre-cancerous lump removed from my face, to reduce scar tissue. I have used it ever since! I will be 40 next year and am told I only look in my late 20s.

Be gentle with your skin and it will go a long way in keeping it smooth and supple. Gently massage the face with glycerin-honey mixture. Dip a cotton pad in unbeaten egg white, and smooth it across wrinkles. Leave it on for an hour and remove it with a cotton dipped in ice-cold water.

i dont know one person who is older who doesnt have wrinkles unless they have had a face lift or botox. its just a apart of life.
to minamilise wrinkles you need to make sure you are well hydrated (ie drink lots of water) have a good diet and excerise. people say having a good skin regime from a young age (teens+) can also help.
sun exposure, alcohol, smoking and drugs can have a bad effect on your skin.

i think wearing foundation will probably protect your skin in the long run as it will act as a barrier against the sun and the wind,but i would say lots of rinsing with clean water and moisturiser night and day is the way to go...
Investing in a good sunblock too..

I know for a fact that foundation does NOT cause wrinkles! Sun causes wrinkles. What does foundation do? Its covering your skin (protecting).

theres something called Thermage which uses radiofrequencies to shrink your dermis while simultaneously cooling your epidermis (skin) so you don't feel any pain. Once your dermis is shrunk, your wrinkles (which is just skin falling into the cracks in your dermis) are gone for another 12 or 15 years. Look it up if you don't believe me.
