skin creamI have a friend named Julia and I do not think I will ever quite understand the way she thinks. Julia is the type of woman who spends a lot of money on grooming and skin creams. Yet she smokes a lot of cigarettes, drinks like a fish and uses tanning beds on a regular basis. As a result of her bad lifestyle choices Julia looks at least ten years older than her real age. I have sometimes wondered why Julia bothers to invest in high end skin creams considering how brutal she is to her own skin. Don’t get me wrong there are some excellent and very effective skin creams on the market and the ones she uses are good quality. However I think it logical to assume that these skin creams are only truly effective if used in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle.  I have told Julia to her face that I think it naïve on her part to believe that good skin creams will save her complexion given the fact that she fills her body with toxins and abuses her skin. Then again Julia would probably now look about fifty if it weren’t for the skin creams that she uses.
