Another WTF? moment

Found this on one of my local papers' website.

I can see why someone might do the deed mentioned. I mean, if a guy LOOKS like an asshole, why . . .

 

[OhMissScarlett]

Huh? They probably want to market(or are already marketing in some form) their own under-eye cream and charge a lot more for it.


I wouldn't put anything on my ass that I couldn't put on my face, but that's just me.

(Gulp) Just swallowed my tongue.

I suspect it's a marketing ploy that not a single consumer ever even considered. Now half of germany will be using it on their faces

LOL.
There's no cream that can fix that.

 

[shereads]

I've heard of that. Haven't tried it, but if the manufacturer thinks it's worth mentioning...

I wonder if it would be more effective taken with food?

 

[sharezade]

Um.....

....that's actually true. A loooooong time ago, I knew people who did use prepH under their eyes to be presentable after a rough (busy) night. Didn't think it was dangerous, just icky.

I read a while ago that Prep. H is the most stolen item because cocaine sniffers use it to shrink their nostrils. I have my doubts about that, but there might be something to it.

 

[JustWanderful]

30 Rock, episode 2 - one of the actresses says she uses Prep H to fix the bags under her eyes. Or that the make-up guy uses it on her...it will be a rage soon...

 

[AngeloMichael]

You'd have to be a butthead to use it that way.

sorry, someone had to say it...

 

[Liar]

What, no "It's for those who don't know their head from their ass" jokes yet? Seriously people.

 

[TheeGoatPig]

Beauty pagents have been doing that for decades.

This was covered on the news here the other day.

Apparently, the television show where the convo occurred aired a while back. When the quarterlies came out, it appeared that sales of hemmy cream had increased by double digit percentages in Europe.

The news release was a CYA move. My guess is that they had to speak up or face penalties from licensing agencies, much like the makers of Retin-A almost faced when it became popular to use as an anti-aging cream.

I've known about this for ages. My friends and I used to say we would repackage it and sell it as "Rectalift" or "Haemalift", all you would need would be one well known actress or model to say that she used it and hey presto, we'd be millionaires!!

 

[angela146]

Yes, Prep-H has been used by women - including my mother and several of my Aunts - at least since the 1970's.

It apparently tightens the skin under the eyes.

Of course, I'm way to young to have any direct experience with this.

 

[Antfarmer77]

It works well on mosquito bites too...unless they're under your eye I suppose
