Saleswoman: "Glycolic acid" "salicylic acid" "amino peptides" "serum" "anti-microbial" The brain hears all the "science-y" words and panics! Am I back in 10th grade biology?? Is there going to be a pop quiz?? Did I forget to study for the final??! Blood starts pumping! Cells start multiplying and... TA DA! Epidermal regeneration!! Cashier: Everyone had younger-looking skin back in science class, remember??

I think the saleswomen have been dropping some of the salicylic acid.

might go over better if the clerks looked like the products worked….. What suckers some are for “that youthful look”. I prefer the far east version where age is venerated…

“venerated” - can’t afford surgery

Umm… before Cathy gets too nostalgic about the “younger-looking skin” she had back in science class, maybe she should remember the other part of the science-class-skin experience: ZITS!!

I think the sales clerk is on an acid trip–Glycolic AND Salicylic!
True puddleglum, but at least stuff for zits are way cheaper.

You know, I still have the “It’s the last day of the quarter and it’s time for the final and I forgot to ever go to class” nightmare. WHY would you want too buy something that brings that back during the daytime too?! EEK! Run Cathy run!! (hehe, I love this strip)

acetylsalicylic acid is just aspirin. helps my headaches, but i’ve never gotten high on it.. nor has it ever improved my complexion.
