We decided it was time to start taking care of ourselves. We don&#8217;t wear much makeup, we just want to have <strike>younger<\/strike> <strike>better<\/strike> healthier looking skin.<\/p>\n<p>It started when I asked a friend of mine, Heidi, a Jafra rep, for some skin care advice. She offered to let us try her Jafra products. She raves about what Jafra skin care products have done for her. She is a Christian, and as I said, I don&#8217;t think she would lie. But honestly, she does have a vested interest in getting us to buy the stuff, so I wondered what she isn&#8217;t telling us.<\/p>\n<p>I have to admit, though I was sceptical, I saw proof for myself that Jafra products do work.<\/p>\n<p>One week after Lorin and I started using the products, Lorin says to me, &#8220;Which side of my face looks better?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Unbeknownst to me, she had been using the Jafra on one side of her face only, and on the other side, she used the Costco moisturizer and other skin rejuvenating creme as she had always done.<\/p>\n<p>I immediately saw a difference. Her left side was smoother and healthier looking with less noticeable lines around the eyes.<\/p>\n<p>But I hesitated to answer. What if the nicer looking side was the Costco products? What if the $200 was a total waste?<\/p>\n<p>Before I answered, I examined her face closely and carefully. I want to make sure that my eyes were not deceiving me. &#8220;Smile and let me see the wrinkles around your eyes again,&#8221; I said. After several minutes, I was definite that her left side looked brighter, with fewer noticeable wrinkles, and smoother.<\/p>\n<p>Lo and behold, it was the Jafra on her left side!<\/p>\n<p>There is yet hope for me!<\/p>\n<p>Let me know if you want to try it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When someone who has a vested interest in a product that she praises, I tend to doubt whether she is truly telling me the whole story.
