Preparation H?????

[+ friendofsheila]

...on your abs?

 

I was going to start watching what there is of "Manhunt" (the reality male model search show) on YouTube, especially when I read that one of them said he used Preparation H on his abs. What the heck for?

 

I was dubious about watching it since it might suck (in a bad way), until I saw in the intro (below) that guy in the red speedo turn around and do a backflip into a pool.

If there's gonna be Speedos, I'M THERE BABY!!!

 

BTW, why would they put Preparation H on their abs?

 

And any comments from people who've seen the series already?

It apparently makes one's skin more taut and removes bags under the eyes. Sorta makes sense I guess.

Well Preparation H can be used as an anti-wrinkle cream but you have to check whether it has LYCD. It might help your abs look firm and defined. Never used it though.

Yeah, it's long been a pre-red carpet thing that the ladies do apparently.

 

Call me crazy, but I'd rather have bags than risk getting Preparation H in my eyes.

Thanks for this. It could be fun if they get more skin in it :-). Prep h? That would be a first for me. It's probably less expensive than vitamen K, which is supposed to do much the same thing.

Maybe, but with preparation H you get that aroma of shark oil or some sort of fish that lingers. I guess some people might be into that; each to his own.

It's a miracle!! I can get rid of the bags under my eyes and tighten up my ass with one bottle!!!!

I have been blessed to be apart of Military medicine in my background for a few years and what in the hell, we always handed out preparation H for Hemroids!?!?!?! Now its the OTC botox, CREATES abs... What else, can we now eat it as a total body preservative and live till we're 200 years of age? ...... ok. id use it on my abs

From http://www.ehow.com/about_5048363_eye-bags-treatment-preparationh.html

 

"The U.S. version of Preparation-H contains phenylephrine HCI 0.25 percent. This chemical is a known to restrict capillaries, and many dermatologists admit it helps reduce dark circles and puffy eyes. In short, phenylephrine restricts blood vessels, which helps temporarily reduce the appearance of swelling and dark circles under the eyes."

 

Note the term "temporarily" ... it works more like 'make-up'. In my opinion nothing will give you the washboard abs you always dreamed of BUT regular physical activity (working out combined with cardio), watching out your diet and keeping a healthy lifestyle.

Use the gel, not the ointment. The gel doesn't have it, the ointment does:

No, there has never been a tub (and I meant tub, not tube) big enough nor a roll of saran wrap long enough for me.

 

Besides, it would easily qualify as an exercise in futility.

You are hot! I know your tool is huge but had no idea it would be that big! Hugs~~~

not tool, stomach.

[Phil_musc]

Thanks for the clarification , Lee - about the gel vs. ointment point. Never know what I'm going to learn when I come here.

[Guest greatness]

Sorry when you mentioned a roll of saran wrap I thought it was a gentleman word for a condom.. lol.. I should drop this proper southern gentleman thing we talk about. But you are still my Ashley, Captain and Colonel, Sorry~~~ Hugs~~

I see now why they were running out of Preparation H in Los Angeles the other day ...

 

Do they snort it or inject it in Hollywood ?

They probably sleep in vats of it.

 

Reminds me of an episode from a short-lived TV show, 'Eerie, Indiana'. 2 boys sneak into the home of 2 sisters who are (in)famous for not appearing to age; in the bedroom they find....2 giant (coffin sized?) Tupperware containers!

It's great for bags under the eyes. I use it and it really works. I use the cream in the tube with the 1% hydrocortisone.
