The painting in the attic

Due to the fact that I’m not getting any younger, I recently purchased two new and relatively spenny products.  They are Boots protect and perfect and Clinique Anti-Age spf 25 Moisturiser.  At a combined cost of £50, they aint cheap, however the good news is – they work.

I’ve not been religious about applying the Protect and Perfect, you’re supposed to do it morning and night, but I reckon that’s just a marketing ploy to get you to use it faster anyway.  I do use the Clinique stuff everyday though and I’m happy to report one or both of these products is actually working.  My skin is looking better than it has in years.  I do think the lines around my eyes are less prominent now.  And last night a friend who is known for being brutally honest was surprised when I reminded him that I’m 36, he actually thought I was a good few years younger – hooray!

The effects of these products has been somewhat negated today by a yucky hangover, lets just call it an off day though.

  1. wandering through a department store cosmetic area yesterday (which is unusual because normally I run),I heard your words echoing in m mind and I thought ‘what the hell’ I too will buy a anti-aging moisturiser. I was prepared that it may cost a wee bit more than my normal bodyshop lotion, but I felt prepared when I approached the counter.

    I think the lady was a little surprised when I uttered the words ‘Fuck me, I hope I can expect an entire new head for that’ …… $100!!! My entire make-up kit doesn’t cost that much.
