New toy

[fancytalk]

Not that kind of toy curefreak!

First I have to explain that Ronette is a sucker for infomercials. I can't tell you how many times I have returned home to find her sitting on the couch with the phone and a credit card telling me "I bought something". I think having cable decreases the chance of this happening as we've been info-product free for almost 3 years. However, Tivo failed us when it tried to record a television show and instead recorded an infomercial for Susan Lucci's Youthful Essence.

It's funny how fast Ronette can get sucked into an informercial. Even funnier is how fast she will get up to find a phone and get the credit card. And I think she's addicted to infomercials. Once I realized that the show we were trying to watch was not the show, I was going to delete it. "Oh no, wait." she says "I want to find out what Susan is hawking." Five minutes into it I'm fascinated too. (This is my addiction to beauty products.) So we sat and watched. Then Ronette got the phone and the credit card and says "you know you want it too". Now I could lie and say that I was just going to let her do what she was going to do and be prepared to send it back, but the truth is I kind of wanted to try it out.

So we ordered it and the new toy arrived today. (So much for their 2 - 3 week delivery period. It was ordered this past Sunday.) We'll be guinea pigs for anyone else who has seen it and wondered. And if anyone has already tested it out, tell me what you liked or did not like about it.

Uh huh. So you understand. :)

Now, don't get me wrong; the LGLS™ is pretty darn cool. It just didn't provide us with the bonding experience it sounds like you two shared over Susan Lucci's Youthful Essence™. *sigh* Some things you just have to be female to appreciate.

I don't know, you might be able to appeal to drmellow's inner girl if you buy one. We've been having beauty night with it this weekend and are pretty much disgusted with how much cleaner our faces look. It's kind of like using Pond's nose strips and seeing all the gook that comes out. You don't see the gook, but we do realize that our skin looks a lot better.
