Saw an article in one of the papers today about a new sun cream that repairs the damage done by the sun overnight. It contains a proetin that actively repairs the damage done to the DNA by the sun!

I don't buy it that cream rubbed into the skin can prevent aging.Sunscreen can only block the harmful rays not repair the skin.The skin is not that absorbant

IIRC a comment I heard on TV the other day went something like "anything that says 'removes the signs of aging' is telling the truth, but so will a coat of polyfilla!" :D

Well I think that the fact that those TV ads are using very young women and cameras with soft focus lenses is a clear indication that the products don't work.If they worked then why do so many actress go the face lift way?The sad thing is that so many of my sex buy into this crap. Even some men are now.. :(
