A Wrinkle in Time—Or Not

estee lauder gwyneth night repair.jpgWrinkle free skin is something we can all get behind.

Free products to keep our skin fabulously youthful is something we often dream about.

Thanks to Estée Lauder those dreams are all coming true in the form of totally free Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex. Abby is completely obsessed with the original formula of this product and counts it as one of the reasons we all think she’s younger than she actually is.

The company is calling tomorrow night “America’s Night to Repair” and holding the brand’s largest sample giveaway to date.

For four hours, 5pm-9pm (all local times) Estée Lauder Beauty Advisors will be giving out 250,000 10-day samples of their newly formulated anti-aging skin product at all Estée Lauder department and specialty store counters nationwide.

Kinda perfect. Plus, Gwynnie loves her Estée Lauder, and we have a deep love of all things Gwyneth. Perfect match? We like to think so.

How is this not labeled advertorial? It certainly sounds like one.

And you're wrong about everyone being able to get behing anti-aging products. I don't see why people can't accept themselves as nature intended and age gracefully.

Ugh... and JUST BECAUSE Gruesome Paltrow likes it, I shall explicitly ignore such products.

No thanks, Estee Lauder. I like my product spokespersons not totally dripping with contempt for the "little people."

if they got rid of the toxic chemicals like Methylparaben and the horrible fragrances then I would put a free sample on my face. Otherwise, get ready for fertility/cancer/hormonal issues as a result of your skin absorbing these dangerous chemicals. Don't believe me?
Visit www.cosmeticsdatabase.com for the real scoop. and no, I do not work for that website. I just care about the chemicals that my skin absorbs.......

Better yet, the best Anti-Wrinkle cream is to never smoke, to not drink too much and to always wear sunscreen. That should be bottled!
