Most young girls dream about their wedding day, planning out to the finest detail bit-by-bit. Not this girl. I chose to spend my lifetime planning something else. A foolproof anti-aging regimen. A wedding is one day (and this girl had a fabulous one), but youthful, wrinkle-free skin? That can be forever, with some careful planning and preparation. I once heard Beyonce say that if you're old enough to think about anti-aging products, you're old enough to use them. If Beyonce said it, you know it must be true. So I took her advice to heart.
One day, not too long ago, I was getting some full-throttle retail therapy on with my boo and fellow sugar at Tyson's Galleria. After attacking the Theory section and grabbing some vino (white, please - no teeth stains), we sauntered through the Neiman's makeup counter. Little did I know, that my life was about to change forever.
I was in the market for a new tinted moisturizer and asked the saleslady for her assistance. She quickly whisked me away from the Bobbi Brown products and over to the Sisley counter, where she sat me down and proceeded to remove all my makeup with an oh-so-heavenly rose scented toning lotion. Once my face was prepped, she applied THE PRODUCT. With just a few touches, ten years were erased from my face. My eyes were brighter, my skin more taut and dare I say... evenly toned. Clearly, the product's primary ingredient was angel tears, as no other substance could work such magic (note: my saleslady did confirm the presence of angel tears in the lotion).
It was then that I knew. I lifted my hand, turned to my friend, gently grazed my forehead with my fingertips and said, "I will never age."
