New! Fresh Socratic flavor!

It's been awhile since I've taken one of my scenic tours of the beauty products in the bathroom. This time, I'll only note the one new thing I see in there, an Almay product billing itself as an "anti-aging" makeup.

Personally, I don't see the need for the stuff on the merits; Eleanor looks more beautiful to me today than she ever has. 

More to the point, though: wouldn't a true "anti-aging" product look more like this?



It comes with a money-back guarantee if not fully effective, but I don't imagine they get many claims for that.

Well, given that many beauty treatments over the years have involved doing things like slathering white lead all over one's face...oil of hemlock might be rather benign.

I assume you've kept away from such products.

Because you're.... smart.... and naturally beautiful, yeah, that's it:) /save

Worst I've done so far is topical caffeine and gold.

My husband and his mother have a running joke about getting old being "better than the alternative."

(But I have to admit that I have used that so-called "anti-aging" stuff myself, and didn't even think of the possibility that death is the best preventative of aging.)
