crepiness
Thin wrinkled quality
Crepiness is the quality of being crêpe-like in texture—thin, wrinkled, and slightly papery.
The word appears almost exclusively in descriptions of aging skin: the crepiness around her eyes, sun damage causes crepiness on the neck and hands.
Skincare marketing has made the term ubiquitous.
