Around What Age Do Sun or Age Spots Appear?

texas88
I'm 22. I've been using face lotion with spf 15 since I was 16. And the make up I wear also has spf 10. But recently I noticed a very very light spot on my upper cheek that looks to me like an age spot or sun spot. I knew my time was coming because my mother has intense age spots on her face and has tried every cream over the counter. But she didn't get them till her late 30s, so I'm not sure if thats what it is. So, is it normal to get age spots early in life?
