When the wrinkles came
I slathered the moisturizer on
like the label said to do
So the wrinkles would be gone.
.Now the cream did soften
My wrinkles were now limp
So I'll get wrnikle remover
Something strong not a wimp.
To find my fountain of youth
Off to the drug store I went
These must work I surmised
They left me without a cent.
But the bottle is too small
I said to the check out clerk
Does this come in gallons
This much will never work.
But I took it home and did
what the directions said
It would fill in the wrinkles
But Oh to my awful dread.
I discovered it only worked
If you had a wrinkle or two
And even than for an hour
I need to try something new.
I'm thinking about silly putty
And maybe a good glue
These cosmetic's people
Just don't have a clue.

Silly Putty and glue sounds like a good option.

What Causes Wrinkles
Movement of brow muscles causes the skin to crease
As skin becomes less elastic over time, repeated frowning may create visible lines and wrinkles
As a person ages, skin undergoes significant changes:
The cells divide more slowly, and the inner layer of skin (the dermis) starts to thin.
Fat cells beneath the dermis begin to atrophy (diminish).
The underlying network of elastin and collagen fibers, which provides scaffolding for the surface layers, loosens and unravels.
Skin loses its elasticity. When pressed, it no longer springs back to its initial position but instead sags and forms furrows.
The sweat- and oil-secreting glands atrophy, depriving the skin of their protective water-lipid emulsions. The skin's ability to retain moisture then diminishes and it becomes dry and scaly.
Frown lines (those between the eyebrows) and crow's feet (lines that radiate from the corners of the eyes) appear to develop because of permanent small muscle contractions. Habitual facial expressions also form characteristic lines.
Gravity exacerbates the situation, contributing to the formation of jowls and drooping eyelids. (Eyebrows, surprisingly, move up as a person ages, possibly because of forehead wrinkles.)
In addition, the ability of the skin to repair itself diminishes with age, so wounds are slower to heal

Other Factors Responsible for Wrinkles
In addition to sunlight, other factors may hasten the formation of wrinkles:
Cigarette smoke produces oxygen-free radicals and is known to accelerate wrinkles and ageing skin disorders. A 2001 study also found that smokers have considerably higher levels of metalloproteinases than non-smokers, which may help account for the skin-ageing effects of smoking.
Air pollution. Ozone, a common air pollutant, may be a particular problem for the skin. One study reported that it might deplete the amount of vitamin E in the skin; this vitamin is an important anti oxidant.
Rapid weight loss can also cause wrinkles by reducing the volume of fat cells that cushion the face. This not only makes a person look gaunt, but can cause the skin to sag
