Are you seeing wrinkles or fine lines?

Happy New Year! Cheers to 2010 and the beautiful new Decade to come!

After so many days of celebration and late nights, did you find your lines around eye area deepen or lengthen? (yeek!)

Many of my clients came recently with their lines deepen. "Fine lines or wrinkles??" They all will ask.
So how you determine?
This simple 'pull' test around the lines can give you the answer. I always teach my clients this method.

These are the steps:
1. Move your face closer to the mirror so that you can see clearly. Make sure the lighting is sufficient too!
2. You need the 1st first finger of both hands. One finger to hold on the the skin and the other pull down (lightly)
3. If line is still there when pulled down, then high chance its a WRINKLE
4. If line is gone when pulled down, its a fine line.

Everybody will have some wrinkles and fine lines (I have them too!). So do not get too worried about them :)

And doesn't mean you have winkles, it is not reversible.
I do have some deeper lines below my eyes area too. Not all are 'real' wrinkles (Surprise!!)
After months of monitoring and observation, I realise that these prolong 'wrinkles' are sometimes caused by too much of expressions (maybe during that particular period, I laugh a lot!) or continuous 2-3 nights of late sleep (accute dehydration).

No panic. Solution in the next post :)
