not stupid at all..I have crow's feet around eyes and a few small lines around mouth,as well as a deep crease between eyes,but,I guess I would refer to them,generally speaking, as wrinkles..

As it is, I score as a T but am basically following W regimens. Over the past few years I have not been terribly responsible about sunscreen use when hiking - have always reapplied at the beach, but have rarely remembered to reapply on all day hikes I figure I have set myself up for some W...
