听一分钟英文：Anti-aging Creams-减龄面霜

The other day I saw an advert¹ on the Internet asking for volunteers to test a new skin cream. It was an anti-aging product. How is it possible for a cream or lotion² to stop us looking old? I don't think any skincare goods can make us look younger. I certainly don't believe cosmetics³ companies that say their expensive creams can remove wrinkles⁴. They just want to make lots of money. Why do people believe them? How do they know their creams work? They did not test their products on thousands of people over 50 years. I think if a person uses an anti-aging cream for 50 years, they would not even look a year younger when they are 60. This means it's a huge waste of money. Only healthy living can keep us looking younger.
