Issue #22 - A Friendly Face in the Crowd

Greta sat inside Zane's limo, staring out at the crowd as the car slowly pulled up to the Geffen Theatre. This was the night Zane had been waiting for--the final night of the L.A. Film Festival and the premiere of His Wicked Ways, the new thriller staring Zaneand Chloe Sevigny.

Unfortunately, Mr. Bad Boy Indie Film Star was nowhere to be seen. And now, Greta couldn't wait any longer. The limo had pulled up directly in front of the red carpet andit was her turn to emerge and greet the throngs and the pressing paparazzi--alone!

Greta stepped out of the limo, stood up and smoothed her new dress from Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti. At first glance it appeared to be a simple summer sundress, but if one really took the time to notice, they'd see the intricate pleating and delicate ruching. Greta was glad she'd decided on it, but more than this she was glad she had taken such good care of her skin since arriving in L.A. Just that afternoon, while preparing for the premiere she'd treated herself to GreatSkin's Foaming Facial Cleanser. It gently removed the dirt and oil that came fromliving in a smog-filled city and left her skin feeling soft and clean, protecting her from inflammations or breakouts. Next, Greta applied Vitamin C Toner, blended with Lemon and Grapefruit. Ah, the delicious aroma! It made her feel as if she could spend all day in her backyard in Laurel Canyon, among the grapefruit, lemon and orange trees. Next, Greta smoothed on GreatSkin Refreshing Anti-Puff Eye Gel. This was just the thing to reduce that under-eye puffiness that came from long nights of reading scripts. And the peptides helped restore firmness and elasticity. After that, Greta dabbed on a drop of GreatSkin Vitamin C+25% Serum. This magical little droplet worked miracles on her skin. Yes, it toned and firmed, but more than this it made her skin appear so flawless. Any little signs of discoloration seemed to disappear. Ah, the wonder of Vitamin C! Finally, Greta applied her new moisturizer All in One Scalpel-less Face Lift Cream from GreatSkin. This incredibly rich cream contained powerful oxidants, such as Grapeseed Oil, Vitamin E, and Retinol. With all this, Greta felt and looked beautiful!

But now, the cameras were flashing and the fans were thrusting their autograph books at her and snapping photographs with their cell phone cameras. "Hey, where's Zane?!" one of them yelled. Another, a burly-looking guy in black leather pushed his way in front of Greta. "I'm from Star Magazine. We want to know if it's true that you and Zane are breaking up."

"I don't know--" Greta began. She was shaken by the crowd. She tried to move forward to get away from the reporter, but almost tripped. Then, suddenly a hand caught her, and pushed the reporter aside, saying "no comment." The man's hand held her steady and gently, but firmly pulled her through the crowd.
It wasn't until they were safe inside the theatre that she saw who had come to her rescue. It was none other than Guy Thompson!

"Guy!" she gasped.

"Nice dress," he said, smiling.

GreatSkin Readers
To take the best possible care of your skin, do what Greta does! Greta's skincare regimen includes:

• Getting a professional facial from her esthetician once a month
• Doing a mini facial (including a scrub and mask) at least 3x weekly
• Applying a C Serum product and sunblock daily (our Vitamin C 25% Serum is on sale this month!)
• Using anti oxidants to combat skin aging (fyi - aging starts in your twenties!)
• Never going to bed without removing makeup to make sure her pores stay unclogged
• Always cleansing her skin twice in both the morning and night so important serums can penetrate effectively (and following with a toner to re-establish Ph balance and hydrate)
• Using an eye cream and drinking eight glasses of water every day
• Sleeping on her back to avoid developing lines and wrinkles from pillow and sheets
