What Is “The Substance” …and Is It for You?

Picsart 24 09 11 10 55 44 320 minIt is a common desire to want to remain youthful. While aging is a natural part of life, there are ways to slow it down through healthy lifestyle changes. However, it’s important to be cautious about extreme measures, such as certain cosmetic procedures, which may have irreversible consequences. Understandably, everyone would choose to feel and look desirable, but it’s crucial to consider the potential risks and consequences before pursuing drastic measures. But, to purchase a substance on the black market that someone gives to you with no knowledge of it or no questions asked. I say NO! New drugs are being approved by the FDA every day. If you can’t wait – live with the consequences of your own actions!

 

Elisabeth Sparkle & The Substance

Picsart 24 09 11 10 54 25 263 minIt was incredibly gratifying to witness Demi Moore’s return to the grandeur of the Silver Screen after an extended absence. However, her notable presence in the film was curtailed by the harrowing repercussions of her decision to partake in a substance, driven by her desire to reclaim a more youthful and enhanced version of herself. I refrain from divulging further details of her ordeal, yet it is evident that she had lost her luster in the realm of Hollywood and was willing to go to extreme lengths to recapture it, hence the movie’s title. The ramifications of her choices were indeed substantial. Similarly, Elisabeth’s quest for eternal youth and beauty was undeniably influenced by her own personal experiences.

 

Pump It Up!

While it won’t halt the aging process, it can prevent your body from wasting away. Elisabeth, who was running an exercise program for young women, found herself in a situation where she turned to a black-market product without considering the message she had been promoting. Many people opt for the easy way out instead of facing and overcoming challenges.

 

 

Closing Remarks on Youth vs. Aging Gracefully

Picsart 24 09 11 10 57 47 929 minThe irony of it all is simply this – age with grace, style, and dignity. Bre proud of your lines, your gray hair, your wrinkles. You’ve earned them from the years of hard work you have managed to put in to work to provide for yourself, your family, you made it, your survived. You may not see it as a reward, but it is. Ladies: Put make up on, hide them, etc. It does not matter what anyone thinks except for YOU! If YOU are not pleased with anybody modifications you have – then you can change them, but please I IMPLORE YOU TO DO IT THE RIGHT WAY and take no shortcuts like Elisbeth did.

To everyone:

Your body is your temple, and you should always treat it as if it’s another version of yourself because truly it is. No one knows yourself better than whom? Yourself! That’s all.

    I was wondering if you’d review this one! I’m waiting till streaming! And I’ll stick to moisturizer🤣🤣🤣

    • I did like it, but it wasn’t the fact that it turned into the Rocky Horror Show; it was the fact that I was fine with it taking that VERY UNUSUAL 180 curveball like that, but it’s just something that was way out of left field. I mean, yes, films can be unpredictable, but not far out like that … you know.
