Honestly, I never really felt “old” until my daughter’s
wedding. And it wasn’t because I couldn’t believe I was actually walking my
baby girl down the aisle when it felt like I was just walking her to the first
day of kindergarten. I mean, I was thinking that. But it was actually that
pricey high definition photographer that my wife insisted on. A week after the
wedding, she excitedly called me over to the computer for a first look at the
photos.
After reliving one of the happiest days of my life, I
couldn’t help but notice all the lines around my forehead, eyes, and mouth.
It’s nothing new to me that I had wrinkles. With all the checks that needed to
be written, I hadn’t been paying too much attention, but I’d thought that you
could only see these wrinkles when you looked in the mirror way up close. Other
than shaving, I’d never had much of a skincare routine before. I’d never needed
one. I thought more than washing with soap in the shower was for women. Even just
picking up something for my wife, the rows and rows of floral-scented products
in the skincare aisle overwhelmed me. None of my male friends ever talked about
getting into skincare. I just thought that guys don’t do that.
Did these magic cameras have the ability to see things
invisible to the not-very-close eye, or do I just see what I want to see in the
mirror? I shouldn’t have asked. My wife laughed as she absentmindedly clicked
through the album again.
“Of course you have wrinkles, honey. You’re 53.”
She is a few years older than me, a fact she doesn’t like
to hear out loud too much. “But your skin is smoother than a baby’s bottom. You
look great in these pictures.,” I replied.
“You should sound happier about that, you know. And, yes,
because I actually put effort into my appearance,” she said.
“I don’t have time for that.”
“Really? Because you spend more time cutting your
toenails than I do taking care of my skin.”
A gave her an incredulous look despite the fact that my
nails grow very quickly. She laughed. “I’ll show you.”
That’s when I met NeriumAD Age-Defying Treatment for the
first time. All you do is apply the cream every night before bed, a habit that
has integrated perfectly with my bedtime routine. Right after application, my
skin feels nice and tight, and continued application has diminished the look of
my wrinkles and fine lines. Wanting to know how this works, I read that
NeriumAD contains patented NAE-8 extract from Nerium oleander and Aloe
barbadensis, which have remarkable age-defying results. I’ve even had a few
buddies tentatively ask if I started using a new lotion or anything. After
explaining I’d been using a cream much more sophisticated and yet just as easy
as applying lotion, they’re using NeriumAD too.
My wife was pleased with the results too. “Great!” she
said. “Because we’re hiring that photographer for Amy’s wedding as well.”
I smiled. “And I can’t wait to see the pictures!”
