Fran was more of a fuss free kind of gal, and wore her circulation mask often for lovely fresh skin.

switched on to heat the face and head, the aim being to stimulate
circulation, leaving skin looking fresh."

Oh my goodness, these are certainly freaky Donna. There is some seriously weird stuff going here! Have a great weekend x
ReplyDeleteHi Jane! If I'd been round back then, I would probably have tried the leg roller thing (anything to avoid actual physical exercise) but there is no way on earth I'd be donning one of those mask/oxygen things. I'd rather pop on some rouge and be done with it! Hope you have a great weekend too. xx
DeleteHonestly, that circulation mask is frightening. I kept expecting to see a ball gag come into play at some point. These were super freaky.
ReplyDeleteBa ha ha Dana - the ball gag - ala Pulp Fiction. I agree!
DeleteIf anything, I think that Circualtion Mask would be bad for your face/head to be heated up in such a way. It's a Friday 13th style electric blanket for your face! Horrid.xx
It certainly takes me a while to get ready for work, but I can take on an armed knight if one dropped by.
ReplyDeleteLol MMMC. Yes, you could!!
DeleteCan you imagine wearing that harness overnight? Bloody awful. Wonder how many gullibles bought that one back in the day.xx
I'd rather go for a "brisk walk in the mountains" myself.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya Kylie! Knowing me I'd pass on the walk too and slap on some Moisturiser and hope for the best. Xx
