Today, the search for eternal youth has pointed us to jars and tubes that have yielded fortunes for companies like L'Oreal and Estee Lauder.

"Our millennial participants gave a mixed response on when they plan to start using anti-aging products, but most (40%) expect to start or started between 25 and 35 years of age," BAML's Sarbjit Nahal said. This number is much bigger than that of the older 40 and 50 year age range.
