Last night two old women came into the store trying on every lotion imaginable. I think they had to each wash their hands and arms 4 or 5 times to get all the... sludgley smells off. (BLECHGKLJ!) The moral of that comment is never put on more than one signature collection lotion from bath and body works. ever.
BUT the moral of this blog is a little different.
When they came up to the cashwrap I noticed that they were about the same age but one had absolutely no wrinkles, and the other was covered in them.
This was perplexing to me.
They started talking about it when the lady with the young face said this
"you know, I just came home from serving a mission with my husband in Mexico, I had a lady there who told me my face was getting old and that I needed to put (GET THIS) VASELINE on it daily."
(WHAT THE WHAT?)
So I kinda said that to her.
she said
" yeah, I wash my face at night, I put on a light moisturizer and then I dip my hands in a tub of vaseline and rub it onto my face (not too much)."
Then she made me feel her skin.
And then she left.
LADIES her face was the face of a 20 year old on a 50 year old's body!
WHAT THE
and vaseline is GROSS.
its GROSS
I don't even like putting it on my lips!
I put it on my feet when they get crackly.
SO
last night, in spite of the fact that
1. I have combination skin that is NEVER HAPPY
not with clinique, not with neutrogena, not with ANYTHING ever.
(esp. in utah and idaho's dry weather)
2. Vaseline is gross.
3. I had an interview today for a full time nanny position that I am really anxious about.
I PUT THAT VASELINE ON MY FACE.
I DID.
and do you know what happened?
ALL people from california are going to sigh with relief when they find out
that by putting a small amount of vaseline on your face
1. You create a californian air I guess,
2. You seal in the medicated face wash that you use
3. YOUR FACE WILL LOVE YOU.
4. It feels good when you wake up, your face is SOFT but NOT OILY AT ALL.
5. my pores... are smaller.
6. I love vaseline.
I am going to use this stuff forever.
and I think you should try it and let me know how it treats you so that I can WHOLEheartedly suggest it.
also, I think someone should get clever and start a company for face serums and we could just bottle vaseline in fancy cute tins.
kthnx.
