Facials?

Sign in to disble this ad
My girlfriend is trying to get me to consent to her giving me a facial (mask etc.). Me being a self respecting man, am not fond of the idea of the crud on my face... She says that it might close my extremely large and open pores (which would be nice actually...).

So, am I just being dumb, or is it actually worth it? It only takes 10 minutes according to her.

Damn, I was ready to throw another joke out there but I think we've seen enough of them, lol.

I say go for it. Couldn't hurt, right? A few friends of mine wanted to put make up on me just for giggles so I let them. It was just foundation but after I looked in the mirror I started to get why some women like makeup so much, lol. Facials can actually be healthy for your skin too so it sounds like a win-win to me.

As long as she doesn't take pics and show all your friends, what's there to lose? Nothing. What's to gain?
Well...

In all seriousness, nothing wrong with taking care of your skin. When you get older you'll be glad you did. I've got some Facebook friends I went to high school with, and some of them look 10-15 years older than me at 35.

On a serious note, why not??

Peace,

Read post 15, I went through with it:P face is clean and nobody saw it didn't do much for the open pore thing, but it's genetics causing the open pores (dad has the same skin issues that I do).
