I want to look 20yrs younger

And I've got 4 weeks to do it :confused: . Anyone got any reports on this new Boots product Tri Aktiline. Its cheaper on EBay, but even so, if it doesn't work, its still too expensive isn't it? OR---- have any MSE'ers got any tried & tested remedies.

    I brought Tri Aktiline when Boots had there 3 for 2 offer. I am still on my first tube and you can notice the difference when you put it on. I dab it in under my eyes and lines on the side of my face and the lines really do disappear after a minute or so. Ebay price wasnt much cheaper so I was glad when they had the 3 for 2 offer on line. So I paid £50 for 3 tubes.

    Are you joking? Do you really want to look 20yrs younger? Or should I say do you think it,s possible with creams? 20yrs is really going for it, I dont think it will happen without surgery or at least fillers. An up to date new hair do and colour will take a few years off and maybe a spray tan but good luck, let us know how if you manage it and I for one will follow your lead.

    Do I detect a school reunion?? :D

    Don't bother - the room will be full of other sad, fat, bald, haggared gits and no-one will recognise each other anyway.

    BTW - Did you ever see that episode of Dad's Army where they all had to look younger to be able to stay in the Home Guard?

    Hilarious!!
    How to find a dentist.
    1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
    2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
    3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
    4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.

    Last year I had fillers, done for free as it was a training day, wow. it wasnt painful in the least and left only small patches of redness which dissapeared within the hour. You must have quite sensitive skin or had a butcher of a person doing it Toots. It is only just wearing off, tremendous, but I couldnt afford to get it done again if I had to pay.
    Totally agree with the rest though.

    Also make sure you exercise from now right up to the day in question - get yourself that "natural glow" people go nuts over :)

    Thanks to all you good folks. It was all a bit tongue in cheek really. Saw this ad in the paper and wondered if it really does "do what it says on the tin". Its not a school reunion Toothsmith, its ---er---, well, about ** yrs ago, I got dumped (ahhh), and in 4 weeks, I'm going to a wedding & "HE" will be there. I'm not going for the full monty, I think I scrub up pretty good really, so I'll put me slapstick on, dig out my killer heels and watch his eyes pop out. I definately got the better deal though- fabulous hubby, 2 great kids, a good life. The girl he dumped me for walked out on him and their 3 kids. Probably had her reasons, but Hey, thats life!!!!!
