for everyone

When I woke up this morning, I was in a pretty good mood. I go to the bathroom to brush my teeth. As I look in the mirror, I was shocked at what I saw ... I am starting to develop wrinkles under my eyes!

Oh my God! When did that happen? Little creases on the sides of my eyes are acceptable. Those are laugh lines. But what explanation is there for creases under the eyes? Is it because I lost weight when I got sick? (I got sick May 22 and I am still coughing to this date.) Is it stress? Or is it just that time in a person's life when wrinkles start to show?

Nooooo!!!! I'm only 38! That's too young for a Filipina to get wrinkles! I guess it is time to start diligent use of moisturizers. Now where did I put it?

Hehehe, I heard once that when we hit 25, that's when we begin to start to "degenerate" so to speak. :P As young as the late twenties, if you're not careful, you can get wrinkles.
Use Olay Total Effects. :P I haven't used it yet, but I'm hearing raves about it from people I know who've used it. (>.<)

Degenerate? Ack! It's too late for most of us, then! hehehe

Actually, I have used Olay Total Effects and yes, it is pretty good. I'm just not very good at following the regimen, hehehe, It is just one more step than I usually do when getting ready for my day. I guess it is time I get used to that one extra step.

I have a bottle of Olay Total Effects at home but it was a promo item and I haven't used it.

There's this song called H.W.C. by Liz Phair...it's about her secret beauty routine. Sounds more fun that Olay.

Hehehe... 'twas funny, I went to a bazaar yesterday where they did free derma consultations. They had a "skin scanner" which was like a tiny camera that runs through the face to look for any imperfections. When it scanned through under my eye area, the consultant noted that fine lines were already forming there. @,@ Nooooo.... I'm not even 26 yet!!! :P

Lynn, I've been checking out your pictures on the PGH thing and girl, you ARE looking good but maybe I can't say naman if it's from the Olay.

But hey, get the lowdown on Liz Phair's HWC!

Ha ha ha.

Hmmm ... I'd be interested in that test. What mall is this?

It was a one-day bazaar in A. Venue Mall in Makati. :( Perhaps you can inquire at any Rustan's face and body care section if they give free skin consultations as well. :)
