  1. Now, to throw a wet blanket on this………do any of these products work on someone in their 60s? Not asking that it make me look like I’m 40 but seriously – its likely a waste of $ once you hit your late 50s, early 60s.

  2. I have used Olay in the red jar for many years.I have a consistent skin care routine since I was a teenager.I love the Olay (red jar)and the L’Oreal midnight cream .Both are really good for skin.The midnight Loreal cream is really good for dry skin in the winter time.Daily and evening skin rituals are a good way to help aging skin . Thank you for this great video .

  3. My dad has used le mer since 2004ish. He got me a jar once but yoinked it back but never gave me another. Sill, I got to use the samples when i was younger and liked it a lot… and my friends got the most luxe looking grams of weed in mini le mer jars 🤣
