Did you every wonder what causes those wrinkles in your forehead or around your eyes? The wrinkles are not just from getting older but actually result from muscle movement over time. You may have heard the expression "wearing your emotions on your sleeve," but in reality you wear them on your face. If you're angry or annoyed, for example, you knit your brows together. Underneath your skin, your facial muscles contract, cause a pleating of the overlying skin, and then, as anyone can see, you're frowning or looking upset.
