does any body know why?

Answer 1

Eastern Asians have a healthier diet.

Answer 2

1) Westerners like to do sun-tanning a lot at the beaches, thus they age faster.

2) East asians have all types of herbal remedies under the sun to cure any type of imperfections.

3) Westerners tend to put on make up too early (girls) and they try to dress older when they are younger.

4) East Asians skin complexion base is yellow and thus their skin collagen (elasticity) deteriorates faster as they age.

5) Westerners eat things that are high in fat content (Example: Fish & Chips and all those fast food), which keeps their skin supple. Due to omega acids (example: fish).

Answer 3

Wow I was talking about the same thing but in reverse order! Asian and whites age very fast but I think once an asian woman turns 35 she looks very old compared to a white person. I noticed Japanese people don't really get fine wrinkling but old age sagging. I have also noticed that Korean women loose much of their hair when they age.
