Eve Cameron does exist, worked with her mid 1980s at Revlon before she moved on to Cosmo and She, and she knows her stuff.

But whether this ad has a morsel of truth in it I know not. I think it’s all smoke/mirrors/emperor’s new clothes when it comes to anti-ageing products. Are there any beauty journalists out there who have given a bad write up to a product in their magazines (no of course not, especially when the income for that magazine is generated from ad space for beauty products/fragrances).

Err.. and who the FUCK is Nadine Baggot anyway?… get the fuck out of my face with your unscientific mumbo jumbo…. polypeptides?? well why dont you rub a Chicken on your face to thick silly bitch?….. Ladies.. try to google the true scientific expression of these silly plays on science words first before you allow yourselves to be taken in by this bamboozling claptrap that wouldn’t even enter a GCSE exam paper in Chemistry… unbelievably bad form to talk such rubbish on TV.. every scientist roles over in laughter at these contrived scientific expressions that mean jack!…

I can’t stand this advert.

Who the FUCK is Nadine Baggot?

I love the made up bullshit in this ad, “Pentapeptides”

You might be thinking “what are pentapeptides?”

I’ll explain, they are a made up buzz word that all women believe to be the next miracle anti-ageing cream.

It’s actually made from “the urine of a barn owl,the semen from a lithuanianan gypsy and mayonnaise”.

I think L’Oreal came up with Boswelox. They obvious thought they’d make up a word that sounds like Botox so it’s bound to make people buy it.

Does anyone remember the wrinkle cream that actually contained something called “Boswelox”, literally the most moronic pseudo-scientific name for something ever.

Pentapeptides only work in such strengths that two thirds of the testers fall down and start frothing at the mouth.

Pentapeptides DO work excuse me. They work best though if, like potatoes, you mash them first and eat them with sausages.

A c4 programme just said “so, pentapeptides. Penta being 5, and peptide being a protein molecule. What does it do? nothing. you may as well put a piece of steak on your face” wonderful. oh, and antiwrinkle creams don’t work. quelle surprise.

I rubbed a raw potato on my face and now I look 30 years younger. I’m not even 30.

Perhaps pentapeptides really do work, and Eve Cameron is actually Nadine Baggot? The advertising company didn’t want to destroy our minds with this startling transformation so she is forced to live a lie. Ooh, I feel a novel coming on.

This one’s less plastic than Nadine, but not much. Do not worry young Silky about doing ‘research’ just shows this up to be the load of cack we know it is.

If I promise no more research and more slander will you stay, please Mike?

This is why I like TWA so much! It’s read and written by people that obviously think alike. Like Jonny (I’ve got a date with Smithybobbins) Chestwig I thought that this was a piss of journalism that deserves higher praise. But like out lord and master Silky, I thought WTF! “What’s this reaserchy crap”?

I now have a dilemma: Stick with the site in case of more potato facial advice or leave like a rat/boat before it becomes the Gruniad. I’m all in a quandary!

In some ways Jonny I feel like I betrayed the basic tenets of TVs Worst Adverts by actually doing some research.

I think it’s cheapened this whole site.

Not heard that one about the potato, I do hope it’s true. One thing is for sure rubbing a carrot on your face doesn’t make you as orange as any of the self-tan products.

A fine piece of investigative journalism, Private Eye will be beating a path to your door as we speak, Bravo Sir!

I can’t find it now but I’m sure somebody did some research that said that you get more pentapeptides by rubbing a raw potato on your face than you would out of skin cream, says it all really!
