Of course. And it's Tuesday, so they were washed just a few days ago.

Not me, not you, and not Stevie, for sure! If Stevie does it, then it's ok...

I'm gonna start saving up now...

Hold dem horse! I never said anything about bathing the whole body. Just rinsing the old hands in that there river. Who needs bathing these days, I got swimming. Love that natural-fresh chlorine smell.

I would stay out of any "natural" body of water in or around the Houston area.

It's also extremely diluted.
Now collagen and fillers on the other hand-anytime anyone tells me that it requires a "block" for the pain it automatically reminds me of childbirth. And those needles are big. Can't do it.

I've had saline instead of collagen and it didn't hurt one bit. I was in a car accident and split my bottom lip really badly and it didn't heal correctly, so I had the saline injections to even it out. It lasted for about two months, during which the lip healed...thank god. Worked wonders.

If I can find a pic of myself with the saline lip, I'll post it. You can't even tell that anything is wrong with it!!!

Kind of related topic: has anyone tried Strivectin? It is a cream that was originally marketed for reducing the appearance of stretch marks, but now people are using it for wrinkles. The ad copy says it is "better than Botox." It's $135 for six ounces, with a money back guarantee.

Nope, I use ass cream. Preparation-H.

For reals? I've heard about that. I got this fab stuff, and i've not really been able to use moisterizers much, cause my skin is oily, but I've totally noticed a difference in my skin quality when i put it on at night, and of course, the evidence supports it. It's Co-Q10 toner and lotion. I think the lotion especially. It's cheap, too. Well, not cheap, but relatively cheap.

And if you have bags under your eyes, wipe some ass cream over the bags and they'll literally disappear.

Burt's Bees skin care is great for people with ANY type of skin.

I don't know.

I've seen people in the waiting room with ice packs on their face after so...
