Fresh-Faced and Friendless?

Quick: Which do you loathe more your wrinkles or your amigas?
Yes, you have to choose, because according to a recent report, those who have received Botox have been left—gasp—without their besties. And no, it isn’t because these ladies are desperately jealous of each other. It seems that the drug’s high point is also its low since it causes muscles to tighten. And scientists have found that people who have received Botox injections are not able to portray their emotions physically on their face, which in turn has made some folks find them unresponsive and, well, a bit rude. So take that phony faces, because no one believes someone wearing a mask. And that is why the women in this photo is holding on for dear life.
Or may be some of us may just get a shot or two to bat away those people we just aren’t so fond of. I’m kidding, of course…

Or maybe their friends are just jealous? It's just another hypothesis. Botox does not make anyone look young, just a little uptight. Good skin texture is the way to go and you get to keep your friends.

mmmm... Botox has medicinal purposes... Some people suffer chronic headaches because of long periods of time spent holding facial muscles a certain way... Like, someone who find that they furrow their brows a lot, they may also suffer from headaches in the very place the '11s' would develop.

This is funny because Relastin just happens to be currently promoting their "Express Yourself" campaign on Facebook to remind everyone that their products reduce wrinkles without.. you know.. reducing your ability to express yourself. Winner gets over $200 of free stuff!
