Utter load of boswelox

Daft in any language!  Good old boselox.  This is an old ad (so glad I found it) Loreal pulled the name bo&%ocks named compound and the wrinkle blasting claims made alongside because they got into trouble. Heh!  They now have Linda Evanglista as their saa-lebby spokesperson.  But looking at the picture, I won't be slapping that stuff on my face for fear of...

  ...looking like a startled cat...

 
...and what in the Jimenny is that?!?   You don't seriously think that this daft contraption massager applicator thingy (what's wrong with fingers?) is going to make me think.  "Ohh! If I buy that and lock myself in the bathroom (because if my husband sees me using it he'll split his sides laughing) and I run this cheap plastic land fill ridden nonsense on my face I will again have the skin of an 18 year old! la la la!".  Um yeah, of course I will.

  Image taken from here. It's not that any of this is surprising.  What is surprising is that the beauty, food, and baby food (grrrr!) companies get away with it - for ANY length of time.

Like most women I'm not overjoyed at seeing my wrinkles and rolls increase in number.  In the fight against the inevitable sag I'm happy to try to maintain a healthy-ish diet, get a good night's kip, and keep-up a reasonable skincare regime.  But why do beauty companies think that all because we want to look after our skin a little bit everyday we are idiots who will lap up their daft claims of being able to tighten skin and wrinkle be gone-ness?  And another thing just how long and thick can a girls lashes be?  Before long we'll look as though we have wigs stuck to our eyelids...

But at least it's funny watching them trying to pedal their wares by bandying about crazy makey-uppy science-y sounding names.  Here's is a small selection of hilarious and cringe making ads.  Sorry guys, but you're talking utter boswelox!

• Urgh! I don't have anything against Jennifer Aniston (unless she's trying to sell me shampoo)
• See above - Cheryl Cole + more shampoo = parody ad.
• I don't know who she is, but when Eve agreed to advertise for Olay she became a tool of the devil.

Do you think these ads are daft too?
