Blacks and Asians don't age until they hit like 55.
I (40 at the time) carded an Asian guy once. Dude looked like a teenager. HE WAS 40.
Meanwhile, I'm 43 looking like a haggard 50. :(
Goths.
Then again, Idris is kinda in a class of his own too. Frikkin legend that man is. Whoof.
"I'm black" feels like an appropriate response in those situations, too

The amount of times I'd ask for ID only to see a birthdate from the 80s or even the 70s was frankly embarrassing on my end.
I am going to look like the crypt keeper by then.
Uhm uh… why is he kinda ??
Ya know…. Beautiful !?! 🥹
So yes, moisturize, but make sure it's got some SPF, too. ;P
Yes we moisturize. Yes we're Black.
The answer, white people, isn't moisturizing, its sunscreen! We don't have enough melanin!
People who work outside will look older, same thing.
1. The average black person everywhere in the world bathes with soap and sponge every day, scrubbing their whole body including the legs
2. The average black person moisturises every day as well
3. Bonus: a lot of black women use sunscreen too
I honestly never know how to take it.
Melanin is a helluva thing.
Wish I had some.

Yet he may be Irish as a gal I met at “Optimum Health Institute” who died of cancer&of Irish catholic school similar upbringing descent&my aunt who died of cancer also looked good wondering if chemo is anti aging!
Plus his name is non specific biblical could cross cultures standardized
&my paleo pal who died of cancer in her 40s would’ve have thunk 20s & early 30s max from ‘Optimum Health Institute’ in Lemon Grove San Diego, CA!

If that didn't make the point for people I don't know what will.

My inner response is “Well I wear sunscreen, moisturizer and oh . . . I’m Black!”
Your weight can affect the appearance of aging as well (facial fat is considered youthful).
Sunscreen, moisturizers and antioxidants can help.
I believe 30-50 SPF is what’s recommended by dermatologists.
What I’m commenting on is, from my observation, Coleman represents the vast majority in that aging doesn’t visibly start till much later.
1. I’m BLACK
2. I am a big fan of Domingo’s talent/ body of work but,
He doesn’t look in his 50’s? Not saying old, but i feel like he looks his age. The skin is fab nonetheless.
