Why Do Some People Get More Wrinkles Than Others?

Some people get more wrinkles than others because their skin is like a sponge that loses water over time. If they don’t drink enough water or protect their skin from the sun, it gets dry and wrinkly faster. People who smile a lot also get more wrinkles on their faces, it’s like folding paper many times makes it creased.
