Cleavage Lines: The secret wrinkles you might be missing

Once upon a time, in a mystical land called Sydney, a young woman stumbled to the bathroom after waking up and began her usual cleanse-moisturise face business. But something wasn’t right. Something had changed.... where previously the skin on her chest had been smooth, now sat a small band of renegade wrinkles.

She rubbed her eyes and looked again. Yes. Yes, it was true: She had Cleavage Wrinkles. She quickly applied her face cream to the area and prayed it was just a one-off, that she’d slept funny or that her sheets had made an impression on her skin. But the next morning, same thing. Small vertical lines nestled between her sweater puppies, going up into the decolletage.

Yes, they were faint, but they were there, and that was the part that was annoying.

She consulted some of her clever, beauty-expert friends.

“Oh yes, I always apply my face cream there, day and night. They’re the secret wrinkles no one tells you about*”

“I never sleep on my side anymore, that’s what causes them,” said one who had a lot more in her cup than I did, and thus more potential of wrinkle in that area. “I trained myself by propping rolled-up towels around my neck and head so I physically could not roll onto my side.”

“I’ve trained myself to sleep on my back, too” said another.

Shit sticks, the woman thought. I can’t believe I’ve been rambling along through life not knowing that you can get wrinkles in between the cans. I mean, I knew to protect that area from the sun, and I always moisturize it, but I didn’t realise there was an issue of bloody sideways wrinkles down there.

So she started using her face cream on the area every morning and night, taking special care to massage it in properly, and attempted to start sleeping on her back. She would beat sleep’s silent skin assassin! With ease! But she didn’t, actually, because she was a side-ways sleeper and her body was controlled by small invisible elves who pushed her right back onto her side each time she tried to sleep on her back.

The end.

GUYS!

Hilarious and informative fairytale aside, did you know about this? Have you been actively preventing wrinkles in the chest/boob area, or have you been neglecting to like me, and giving all the attention to the face and neck? Do you sleep on your side? Is it more relevant the bigger your boobs are? Do you apply face cream to the mammaries? Does Heather Graham get these lines? TELL ME STUFF.

I seriously just googled “boob wrinkles” & this informative & depressing blog came up. 

I just saw something horrid under the way too bright lights of the work restroom.  Very faint & ready to pounce. Visible only while washing/rinsing hands or otherwise pushing boobs together w/ upper arms.  But new; these things were not here last time I checked out my cleavage in a mirror.

I am almost 38 & this aging stuff’s new to me. I think my extra padding hid the signs of the revolt.  It’s all attacking at once! & fast! What’s up with that?

Holy shit, this blog has scared me! Ha I’m only 20, and I sure don’t like the idea of wrinkles ruining my lovely 10DDs anytime soon.  Moisturiser tonight!

I just spent the last minute peering down my top and seperating my boobs and was shocked to discover the tiniest beginnings of cleavage wrinkles!!

Im sure it was most obsure/entertaining for my colleagues, but i will definitely be moisturising there tonight!

I have a friend who swears by these special sheets that promise less wrinkles.  She bought them for her face because she is a side sleeper but has found they work for her whole body.  They are a satin texture and don’t crinkle - she says things aren’t getting as squished while she sleeps.

My sister and I call it the Elle McPherson chest as she used to have cleavage wrinkles really badly! The only thing you can do is try and sleep on your back…

Sara - I got crazy-go-nuts, awful looking sun damage along my shoulders and the back of my neck and I’m 26. The sun is a mean bitch, and I don’t think you’re abnormal. Search the Products and Services for things containing AHA and glycolic acid to sort yourself out.
