Some use hemorrhoid cream on their face In my eyes,it is not the right place But they ‘pile’ it all on Till the tube is all gone I won’t use our tube just in case Just imagine if you’d used your finger On your piles cos you had a humdinger But your wrinkles need lube and you reuse that tube on that note I’ve leave you to linger!! Based on an article about people using this cream to shrink their facial wrinkles ***** about face means 'something that is contrary to what is expected' 4/14/18

Hey, Jan, are you SURE 'Arse about Face' isn't just 100% literal?! LOL! ... What a humdinger this one is. (I'd wondered whatever happened to 'Preparation H' anyway. Ha-ha.) Ta-ta, ~Gershon

* 2 tubes are important: one for face and one for the ass ... mark them with HUGE LETTERS !!!
Date: 4/14/2018 1:17:00 PM
Haha ,people actually use pile cream for wrinkles? I hope they saved some for their actual piles because they say they're painful.Cheaper than a face lift but I think they're making an ass of themselves .

lol@making an ass of themselves, yes people do it to reduce wrinkles under their eyes, i saw some pics of them having a severe reaction.If people do use it then Ii just hope they have 2 tubes which are clearly labelled which end they are to be used on lol:-) hugs jan xx
