To find beauty treatments a bit cringe now

[SueSuddio]

For years I've seen the beauty standard rise and rise, do you think we've reached peak?

I don't understand how and why people have the time and money to pay for it all - Botox and fillers are now mainstream, eyebrows now need laminating or tinting, nails are now expensive gels, lashes need extending, blah blah blah, all on top of necessaries like hair cuts / dye.

Now we've kind of peaked & it's got a bit excessive, does anyone else find these looks a bit cringe now? It's not my money or my life, but I can't help but think what a waste of time and money.

I know live and let live but I can't help to take an interest because as a woman I'm a target for these treatments too.

Yes, mine is actually for migraines, with the happy side effect of slightly smoothing my forehead. I've spent some time reading up on concerns about safety and, despite speculation, there doesn't seem to be any information that it's harmful in the long term, and it's been licensed for medical use for a long time. There have been some adverse reactions, but the serious ones seem largely limited to unlicensed practitioners.

Oh yeah @andthatso I did, sorry!

Same…
