Yesterday I was totally shocked to look at my reflection and see that I had my first under-eye wrinkle. I gasped and tried in vain to straighten out the wrinkle before it became more of a concern. Unfortunately, I did not triumph in eliminating the wrinkle, but I did succeed in turning that section of my face an awful shade of red, kind of like an eye shadow for a costume party. Rather than accept the fact that I now had a wrinkle, I darted to the store to buy some anti wrinkle cream. Of course, when one occurs, others will follow and I would prefer to prevent that if I could.
Once I reached the store I was amazed at just how many different brands of anti wrinkle cream there are. I needed help from an expert – I called my mom. I told her that I was looking for the best anti wrinkle cream and knew she could help me. I guess that was a bad thing to say because she promptly hung up on me. I chose to search the shelves and check the active ingredients of the many different types of anti wrinkle cream which were staring me down.
Each wrinkle cream claimed to be the very best, yet all of them had similar ingredients. It sort of confused me: how could they all be the best, if in reality they were the same? I must have seemed very confused because the sales woman came over to ask if I needed help. Was my wrinkle really that obvious? I pointed to the wrinkle and then the shelves filled with the various brands of anti-wrinkle cream. The girl looked at me and laughed. The wrinkle I was pointing to was just a laugh line and I should embrace it, she said. Apparently it’s a sign of happiness. No, it’s a sign that I’m getting old and I want to reverse the aging process on my face – back to where I started.
I ended up picking out two different types of wrinkle cream. One was for the place where the wrinkle was developing while the other one was an under-eye anti wrinkle cream. I figure using both of these can help me prevent further laugh lines. It’s worth a shot, right? Hopefully I’ll get lucky and see some results soon, otherwise you’ll be seeing me back in the anti wrinkle cream aisle looking confused yet again.
