Special-effect contacts (also called theatrical contact lenses, costume contacts and gothic contact lenses) are popular for Halloween and costume parties. These lenses typically are sold separately in individual glass vials and can range in price from $50 to more than $200 per lens.
Leading Cause of Wrinkles: Sun Exposure. A healthy tan is anything but. Tanning is a sign of skin damage, evidence that the sun's ultraviolet rays have penetrated and damaged the skin's support structure. Most wrinkles are caused by sun exposure throughout life -- and it's never too late to halt the process. What you can do: Wear sunscreen with sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 15.
How Is Crepey Skin Different Than Other Wrinkly Skin? The difference between crepey skin and a wrinkle is that a wrinkle forms when there are repeated motions in one area. Crepey skin, on the other hand, results when your skin grows thin and loses its ability to return to normal after being stretched. Letâs return to the skin on your elbow for a moment. Bend your elbow like youâre flexing your bicep and feel the tip of your elbow. Thereâs very little skin covering the bone in that area (i.e., the skin is thin there). And think about how many times every day you bend your elbow to some degree. Thatâs a lot of stretching for such thin skin to handle. Itâs no wonder these areas of your body are the first places you see crepey skin.
