an application of pretty pink lipstick or a coat or two of slick nail polish some dames invest far further maxing out their shocked credit cards to purchase a full kissable pout or heavily defined threaded eyebrows permanent dark tinted long eye lashes a tattoo or two inked on body parts not to mention bleaching of teeth gleaming brighter than virgin snow to flash winter white at all and sundry a botox shot can hide laughter lines can fill in the odd imperfections or braver still consult a plastic surgeon who will enhance those curvaceous parts add emphasis and a few cup sizes to those twin peaks filled with silicon gel as derrieres are currently in fashion plump up those plummy cushions of fleshy non dimpled soft seating what happened to natural beauty seems it's died a dreadful death takes time and money to be fake I haven't even mentioned tanning or hair extensions yet and I bet I've missed a few others © 2020 Chris ShawFeatured Review
