The birth of the pore strip

SueG <...@susan–gardner.com>
Well, it *could* have happened this way:
–––––
"Oh gosh, Debbie. The prom's coming up, and just look at my
nose! See all those little dots? Blackheads! Ewww! Billy will never
want to dance with me. But look at you. You don't have any! What's
your secret? Come on, spill it!"
"Well, Peggy, if you have a kitten, you have your very own
beauty expert! It's really easy!"
"You know I just got Mr. Fluffums. Tell me!"
"Okay. The next time you play with Mr. Fluffums, open a can of
tuna, and dab a little tuna juice all over your nose."
"Are you serious? He'll go insane!"
"That's right! He'll lick your nose all over. Those little
barbs on his tongue will take off any dead skin that's clogging your
pores, as well as the tuna juice. That's called exfoliation."
"But ... ewww, Debbie! You do that with Snowball?"
"Uh–huh. After he licks it off, he starts chewing on my nose a
little. That loosens up that yucky black stuff in the pores. It's like
a little massage."
"But that must hurt!"
"Well, kind of. After a couple of minutes I put him on the
floor and check in the mirror. My nose is pretty red, and sometimes
it's bleeding a little, too."
"Ouch! I don't think I could do that."
"Peggy, do you want Billy to notice your clear skin or not? We
have to suffer to be beautiful, remember."
"I know. Sorry. Then what?"
"I put a bandaid on my nose, and leave it on while I have my
bath. I should have said you should only do this on your bath night."
"Okay."
"After my bath, I take the bandaid off. Do it really fast so
it doesn't hurt as much. Now, this is the keen part. You'll be able to
see little blackhead blobs on the sticky part of the bandaid. That's
called extraction."
"Wow!"
"And in the morning, your nose won't be red any more. If you
do it every week on bath night, I bet you'll see a big improvement by
the prom."
"Debbie, you're a genius! I can't wait to try this. I'm having
my bath tonight, too. Oh Mr. Fluffums ..."
