‘The first impression creates a lasting impression.’ Unfortunately, another dictum of this age is that nothing, but nothing, lasts forever. As your near and dear ones reassess you your mirror tells you that your laugh lines are no longer catalogued as such. You are, my dear, in this youth centered globe, irreversibly aging.
What do you do when that happens? I panicked. The next thing I did was look out for makeup tips that would tide me over this inevitable crisis. It got so fizzled that I would consider wearing makeup even on an early Sunday morning. What do I do if my considerate, late rising boyfriend notices my age lines in the clear light of the day? Well, it was time to bring out the big guns.
I started scouting for something other than needles that would wipe my wrinkles away and leave a smooth, baby soft skin. No Botox or surgery for me, thanks.
What did I get? Well for starters a whole new set of age lines. Do you know just how many anti aging skincare products are available in the market?
They work, some, sometimes. A few of the popular, usually very expensive creams work for a while. Of course, you have to use them religiously. The ‘natural base’ products worked for me. But beware of the herbals. I tried a cream a colleague swore by and broke out in rashes. Seems your skin type, allergies etc. needs to be researched into and matched to the product.
Well, I do have my unwritten, expensive doctoral thesis in hand and I do look younger now but that is because I took up jogging and eating healthy. Not health foods, just regular proper meals.
My recommendation, fall in love, preferably with a health instructor.
