What is it about vanity that makes you do stupid, stupid things? This morning I awakened to under eye puffs resembling twin Goodyear Blimps deflated. They looked big enough to re inflate and my day was over before it began. That bad. Yes.
Not that it matters, but a dear friend has hired me to take photographs of her baby boy's baptism. Today. Yes, TODAY! In 3 HOURS! Well, I could use tea bags. No. Time to resort to drastic measures. What's here in the medicine cabinet? Oh, let's try that models trick you're always hearing about of using hemorrhoid cream.That is supposed to be a miracle cure for circles and puffs. Oh, I don't think it works. Besides, there seems to be a lingering odor. Uh, oh... I can hear the whispers already...that JCK taking pictures seems nice, but do you smell anything? There is an odor. Do you smell?... OH, HORRORS! This can't be happening!! Will they be sidling away? Wait the smell is being taken over by a burning sensation. Ouch! Is my skin sizzling? Wait a minute.... I hadn't considered that I was putting this hemorrhoid cream on top of my wrinkle cream. Oh, GOD. Could this be an acid peel? Not NOW! Quick! Put cold water on the flames!!! Jesus!! Dammit!!! Am I ALLOWED to SCREAM! EVIDENTLY WRINKLE CREAM SHOULD NOT BE MIXED WITH HEMORRHOID CREAM. IT IS A PROBLEM! I am a moron! Wash everything off. Starting to hurt a little less.
OK, let's take a look. Uh, oh... there seem to be red marks under my eyes. Are those burns?? Will I have to wear sunglasses indoors? Wait, I can't!! I'm the photographer. I need my eyes. DEEP BREATHS.... I now have 2 hours and 40 minutes until the baptism. Perhaps I could meditate. It will be fine. It WILL be fine. IT WILL BE FINE! Screw meditation! Should have stuck with those tea bags...

I am laughing so hard right now because 1) this is hilarious and 2) I *just* bought some Prep H in order to try this trick myself. Oh, the things we put ourselves through to make up for the sleep we so badly need. :-)
ReplyDeleteAll the areas that are exposed to the sun are the first ones to get wrinkles. Therefore, these are the signs which show that after some years the rest of the body, like your neck, chest, back, shoulders, thighs, feet, etc. are going to start showing wrinkles. Therefore, you should become cautious in time if you want to prevent the wrinkles. Wrinkle Cream is available not just for the face and eyes but also for the complete body.
ReplyDeleteIf you've been trying your luck with anti aging treatments in order to look younger, you've likely felt the sting of betrayal from using the best anti wrinkle cream on the market. It's safe to say that you discovered that the "best" anti wrinkle cream was, in reality, the "worst" around.
