Has anyone used that new gel that's supposed to tighten up your face? Does it work? If it does, what kind is it? Does it feel like Elmer's Glue on your face?

There are gels that you put around your eyes to firm them. Basically you put the gel on an area of your face, it dries and the skin stays in place. When you wash the gel off, your skin returns back to where it was. It is a temporary fix. I bought a jar of eye firming gel once. It stuck the skin on my face in place. It lasts about 6 hours or until you wash it off. Its a gimic. I was just reading online that the anti aging sales reached $42.7 billon dollars in 2002.

I can see that increasing in the future, too. Someday they'll have a thin mask you can put on that will give you a brand new skin surface. You'll be able to put makeup on right over it and it will feel like real skin. Now won't that be nice!

Catty,
that reminds of that Jetson Cartoon (saturday morning stuff) where Jane just got up and her vid-phone rings. She looks like a hag and says "Just a minute.. let me put on my face"... and then she picks up ... well a mask and it becomes her face.. but sweet and smiling... and not a hag.. I thought that was too funny!
