    They say the 50's were the last age of innocence, I think this model would have a different opinion!

    Considering that I was born out of wedlock in the 50s - not buying the innocence gig. :lol:

    The tester they used is radioactive. Dangerous!

    I wonder how many takes they had to do to get that commerical, and how much that model was exposed to.

    They were using radio-active material to prove the face cream was effective! Can we say skin cancer, at the very least!?

    Innocence or ignorance??? I don't think they knew how harmful it was.
