I'd like to live forever but how would one look like in 'forever'?

Would I still stay fair skinned or would I have wrinkles on top of wrinkles?

My sentiments exactly. I want to live a long (by normal, not elven, standards), happy, healthy life and kick the bucket on par with other people my age. Not to mention that old people start to look pretty strange - can you imagine how weird everyone would look if they lived to 200?
