The fountain of youth

I went to my dermatologist for a sun damage check, since I’m fair skinned and got a lot of sun in my younger days (before sunscreen). While there, I seized the opportunity to ask about remedies for the ordinary wear and tear age brings to skin (especially fair skin). The doctor recommended two things: the Obagi line of products, which infuse Vitamin C and other things into your skin; and the Clarisonic, which uses sonic vibrations to scrub your skin.

The products, which I’ve used for two weeks, seem to work, but the result isn’t quite what I expected. Like an aging Hollywood star who’s had all that plastic surgery, I look smoother, but not younger! It’s rather peculiar, in that I feel as if I’m a well-polished antique.
