(My med cabinet has about 4 exfoliators, from the big honkin' almond pit scrub, down to the "micro-fine" particles.) Use one after the other, decreasing in abrasiveness, until you've scraped off enough layers to claim a few years. Finish off with a lift mask and moisturizer, and go to bed with duct tape lifting @ the strategic places. Next morning your skin will glow. Don't forget to remove duct tape before carpool. You're blessed with amazing genetics, JB ~ don't touch a thing! (Yet. Your best friends will tell you when it's time!)

It looks like I either have to stand at least 12inches from people, or I need to look into more drastic measures. You have all been so helpful.

Save it for ten more years and by then it will be improved and the effects might last more than 7.5 days. And don't forget, in twenty years, which passes faster than a high speed train, you will wish that you looked like you will look ten years from now.

If you go in for a proceedure, the Doc will think you're nuts. I've seen your pics. Maybe your money would be better spent on a Frontal Labotomy. Just Kidding!!! Great writing.

That's when all the s..t hits the fan or the floor! I've never done a professional peel but I know people who have. After a week of yuk the fresh skin is revealed and glowing. A little hint to try before taking the big peel step is to use Oil of Olay microdermabrasion and peel kit. Use your normal moisturizer after each treatment, preferably at night when skin heals and rejuvenates the most! One last hint, no need for abusive slurs ( even if they are true). You radiate beauty every day! Jen, don’t fret you’re not forty yet. That’s when all the s..t hits the fan or the floor! I’ve never done a professional peel but I know people who have.
