Olay Total Effects, Feeling Forever 21!

Last week I attended an event where a man was trying to guess the ages of the people at the table. When he came to me, he declared I was 21!! Bwahahha okay, very funny! I have been told I look younger than my actual age a number of times before, and I am sure it won’t be my last, but 21! That was a bit extreme! I chalked it up to one drink too many and had a good laugh. The following day we rode together on a bus to the airport and he asked again, ‘so you really aren’t 21?’ and continued on to say ‘well whatever your secret is, keep it up! or bottle it, you would make a fortune!’


Okay so how old am I???

Well, I’m certainly not Forever 21, I’m not even 31! I’m not shy to tell you that I am actually turning 37 pretty soon!

There’s really no secret to my youthful appearance either, for the most part I am lucky enough to have come from my mother’s gene pool and the rest is a good skin care regime. I wash my face morning and night and moisturize every day. I probably should have started using creams for aging far earlier than I did, but I hung on to products made for teens because they were ‘more fun’. All of that has changed though and today I use great products like Olay Total Effects. The whole line up works great, smells great and as for fun, it doesn’t get much more fun than the suspended spiral of cream in the Olay Total Effects Tone Correcting Eye Treatment!

    I’m totally jealous!

  2. Lots of water, tea, and vegetables.

  3. I’m 19 and i’ve had people saying I looked 21 since I was 15. Now that I’m 19 I believe I heard people say I was 23. I know now I might think that’s cool but when I get older it will suck. lol So no anti aging anything for me.

  11. Use an avocado, egg-white face mask.

The winter months seem to try it out more than any other season. Thank you for this nice giveaway.
