Peels

Is it wrong of me to be sitting here, one Sam Adams later, contemplating a chemical peel for my 38th birthday?

I mean, who wouldn't want,
"...dramatic improvement in the surface of your skin - fewer fine wrinkles, fewer blemishes, and more even-toned skin. Your results will be long-lasting, although not immune to the effects of aging and sun exposure."

Right now, I want one. But then I think, "Remember that episode of 'Sex & The City'?"

Yeah, no thanks.(But you know, we probably have completely different skin...)

LOL! That episode was hillarious!

So, are you a December baby like me?

I've been a secret shopper of cosmetic "enhancements". I mean, I haven't done it, but I've been looking in the mirror long enough to hone up secret plans of my own -- ****when I'm 40, I'll get rid of my eyebags (which has been with me since I was 13)... I might even get a lift... but noooooooooooooo, no surgeries...****

Here's to wishful thinking!

I bought one of those Oil of Olay home microdermabrasion kits...that's as close as I'll get to a chemical peel. I broke out once from a facial, and once from getting my thin blonde 'mustache' waxed, and the zits looked far worse than the bit of hair I had there, so I just KNOW I'll turn out just like poor Sam.

Come to Miami! It's the plastic surgery capitol of the world! You can get everything from a minor face peel to vaginal reconstruction and then flaunt it on the sexy and sultry SoFla beaches...LOL! I think a face peel is pretty safe...as long as they start with a very low percentage of acid/chemical. There can be side effects of course...red, blotchy skin immediately following, etc. but it usually clears up in a few days. My friend Cherry used to get them regularly from her dermotologist. Anyway....you look great and have always had flawless skin so I personally don't see the need for you to get a peel. Just my thoughts...

But I'm a guy, so what do I know?

I think dancing keeps people young. Then again, I dance all the time and I'm still 53 years old.

Shit.
