Reasons to follow a skincare regime: a crone speaks

by Aphrodite, June 30th, 2009 in Anti-ageing, Skincare |

Now lassies pull up a stool there to the range and let me tell you about the times I had when I was young… Ah you think I was never young? This wizened face, these wrinkled hands, the brown age spots – but look at me. I’m still making the effort – putting on my mascara every morning, putting in my false teeth, applying my green eyeshadow and putting a jazzy bracelet on my wrist.

But if only I had followed a skin care regime.

If only I had used sunscreen.

By the power vested in them by technology Roc aged a photo of Kirstie by 40 years and I felt it needed to be brought to a wider audience as it was somewhat hidden yesterday. This is how she would look if she never uses any skincare or sun creams. Let that be a warning to us all!

    the shame! By the way, RoC will age three of you guys too – if you’re interested, send a high res big pic (not a teeny passport size) straight off a digital camera, for example, to kirstie@beaut.ie – but we will publish it on the blog, so be warned!

    Could be a lot worse! You look like a lovely old granny here who would bake cookies for the neighbours kids, not an evil old crone who slashes their footballs when they stray into the garden.

  • Shelly says:

    Ha ha i was thinking the same Shinny, she looks like a really nice friendly Granny that you would only love going to visit!!

  • Breige says:

    hmmm,I’m tempted to get this done but I’m not sure I’d like the results!

  • Charli says:

    It would be interesting to see if they could give you an idea of what you would look like in 40 years time if you used their products.
