It's not that old people want to look young, it's just that they think that they are still not that old. They may be old in years but they are still young at heart. I read it somewhere that old people takes some couple of years before they accept their real age... hahaha!

Looking young to other eye is an eternal desire of human specially women for which married woman dress with huge mak-up so that they look more beautiful to others eye. For man to look young by other woman's eye is one kind of joyous thril, so no one want to be disgusses as old. Moreover age may be old but mind is still young for which people want to look young.

It's hard to imagine when you're young, but someday good looks fade and some people have a hard time dealing with that. There's a great importance placed on youth and beauty in this country. Too much! I wish there would be greater focus on wisdom and experience. I've noticed recently, however there does seem to be more acceptance of "older beauty" than there used to. The people you are talking about are the ones that try to hold on to the exact same ideals of beauty as they did when they were young. Instead of focusing on what is beautiful with them now.
