My colleague, Dr. Houtan Chaboki, shared the link to an article in Wmagazine first published in Feb 2011 regarding how Japanese researchers determined 35.09 years is the exact tipping point when beauty starts to fade.

35.09 years is exactly 33 days after the 35th birthday.

Hmmmm... I'm not sure about the science here, especially given the researchers work for skincare company SK-II. And proffer their $250 Skin Signature Melting Rich Cream as a solution.

What do the masses think if corporate scientist lackeys are to be disbelieved? Well, QVC did a survey of over 2,000 men and women and found that age 31 is the tipping point. Doubters of this age may point out that this survey also is biased as QVC is not exactly an ivory tower institution.
