i hear you. the truth is, i pay more than i think i should for a brand of skin product, because when i stopped using it (i thought it was vain and all those products are the same; it's a play on women's insecurity, right?) my skin got really, really unattractive. but it's cleansers, not groovy creams that promise to lift things. but it took me a long time to decide that toner wasn't just pink water.
that being said, i'm proud of my wrinkles. i've earned every damn one of them, and i expect to earn more. i think that advertising inflates the value of youth, which could be perceived as devaluing the aging, but i don't. do you have an example you're thinking of?
