Yesterday, I was at a drug store on Washington Avenue, when I saw that employees were keeping the Olay Regenerist under lock and key. Now I can see the purpose in having to lock up spray paint, particularly in these hard times, but wrinkle cream? Are ladies really willing to serve time to stay young and beautiful?
In 2009, a daily television show tested the $30 product against other serums, some of them costing as much as $300 per bottle. When Regenerist won, not a jar could be found on shelves anywhere. Beauty bloggers went out of their gourds, and apparently the product has been selling steadily. (I suppose that thieves are actually selling the product at a discount to get drug money, as they are reported to be doing with Tide detergent).
At $30 a jar, it's still a bit pricey for my budget. But lately, I've been hearing a lot about the benefits of olive oil. One hair dresser painted it on a model's hair for conditioning purposes; and, Whitney Houston is said to have died with a gravy boat full of it to ward off the signs of aging.
Last night, the results were not good. I couldn't find a paint brush, so I poured the oil on my hair. I knew I was in trouble when I couldn't rinse it out even with shampoo. Now, I'm as greasy as a Cesar salad. My hair looks wet and I've even got olive oil on my computer keys. As soon as the grocery store opens, I'm going down to buy vinegar to cut the grease.
The moral of this story is, if you use olive oil, you will have softer skin and hair, but for God's sake go easy or you'll end up looking greasy.
