Mad Woman?
With the ongoing popularity of a little show called Mad Men, it occurs to me that I would be perfect at advertising. And also wearing all those curvy, ladylike dresses. But let's get back to the advertising for a moment.
Since the ad agencies are clearly not on the ball enough to recognize my natural talent, I'm not currently getting any money to advertise anything. So I'm going to have to make my case using a product that I personally endorse, but that I am not actually being paid to peddle.
I have recently discovered a new (read: REALLY OLD) miracle product in the world of skin care. This product is fantastic, and apparently French women love it, so you know it has to be good. You scoop some of this stuff into your hands, rub it all over your face and then wipe with a warm washcloth and, voila! Soft, youthful skin right before bed. It's like a guarantee of a good night's sleep!
Here's my ad:
Brilliant, no?! I really should be getting paid for this. Though alternatively, I would also take ten minutes alone in a hotel room with Don Draper. Deal!
Now, I'm off to turn those clocks back and use that extra hour for beauty sleep. The Ponds people are good, but they're not miracle workers.

Oh, and finish the ad off with that last part, about the time change. Although you could only run the ad once a year!
But you make a good point. There are a lot of blogs out there advertising all kinds of stuff for free on a regular basis. If you're going to advertise for real, you should be getting something out of it. In reality, the ad game is not for me. I blog for the creative outlet, nothing more.
My grandma swore by Ponds and my mother by Nivea!!
Hope all is well!
I've been using some great products that have helped my awful skin but they are pretty pricey. Ponds is like what? $3.00 a jar?
