As a result, these thin, unsightly lines can appear. Over time, sun exposure leads to the break down of the skin’s collagen (the protein responsible for your skin’s structural makeup) and elastin (the protein responsible for skin’s elasticity) levels. We all know that long-term sun exposure is a no-no when it comes to long-term skin maintenance, and crepey skin is proof you can see with your own eyes. According to the Mayo Clinic, the biggest culprit behind crepey skin is actually sun damage. Unlike normal wrinkles, crepey skin can’t be traced to general facial movements. Crepey skin is most commonly seen under your peepers, on hands, or on the upper inner arms. It can also feel loose, saggy, and more fragile than typical wrinkled skin - think about the delicate wrinkles around your eyes, for instance. Much as the name would suggest, crepey skin is skin that looks, well, crepe-like - thin and delicately wrinkled.
