zapping zits
I came across this gizmo in one of the many catalogs that arrive in the mail before the holidays. I can't imagine giving this item to anyone as a gift. It makes me hurt just looking at it!
Those 'zit zapper' tools have been around for a long time. I hadn't thought about them for decades, but when I saw the ad here in your blog, I recalled that my mother had one. I recall asking her what it was when I saw it at her dressing table as a young child. She described it essentially in the same way as the ad -- "pierce whiteheads...press out blackheads..." That would have been about 45 years ago. Thanks for the blast from the past.
