Candice Bergen Keeps Her Food Off Her Face
In response to: Cucumbers on your eyes, oatmeal in your bath … What old-fashioned beauty rituals do you still follow?
I don’t put any food on my face or any part of my body except accidentally when eating fast. Then it mostly just falls on my clothes.

Bibsy, Mugsy? Nini, Nonnie, Buffy and Peachy have theirs…..I’m all over this, Maggie….screenprinters working 24/7 at my offshore facility… red hot needle and a burning thread at the factory….Seriously, and on topic, thank you very much, I do use food on my face….glob of Pond’s cold cream or other heavy-bodied goo, in my palm with a generous shake of uncooked grits…any kind….stir in palm w/ungooed finger and use for exfoliating scrubby-dubby…wipe off and leave a light film if you want to…or soap and water it away….grits have a way of finding a hiding place in one’s ears…..
Thanks for pointing out this thread…..I like these homegrown lotions and potions…someone mentioned "age-defying" something…..When my mom was in her mid-nineties, we were on one of her famous command performance runs at the monster drugstore (cosmetics,etc…) chain in her neighborhood….She wanted Pond’s facial scrub pads….a refill pack for the box she had for years….There was quite an array of options…oily, dry, acne, extra this and that and "age-defying"…..She leaned over to read the name tag on the salesgirl’s bosom and said, "Oh, Whitney, honey, I’ve been there done that…"
i remember years ago, reading that ms. bergen used a clean white washcloth each day, to BUFF away dry skin……………i can’t remember what product she used, but i seem to remember it was something easy and low priced.
IS THAT STILL TRUE?
