To be totally fed up with her?

Virtually all adverts pass me by. Anywhere.
I did notice she was there on this one. And could probably have guessed L'Oreal if asked.
I certainly didnt know about Perfect Film, not heard of it, and wont be seeing it.

I have no idea what the perfect age is. One of those myths I suspect.

It would take much more than an advert to make me think about glamourising myself.

sad my crossing out went wrong.

I'm not keen on Helen Mirren. And I wouldn't wear that bright red lipstick. And a black biker jacket just wouldn't suit me anymore, not since --my rib cage settled onto my stomach without a gap in between--I became a little short.

I haven't noticed her either!

She gets on my nerves too Roseq but adverts are the price we pay for GN being free.

I haven't even noticed her.

Oh, I don't know. I think it's marginally better than the care home ads.

Nope!
That and that hideous M&S one last year, with a number of non-names including Tracy whatsit smirking away, just makes me determined not to buy.
I'm beyond doing glamourising and as for a Perfect Age confused.....

I know most people love Helen Mirren, so AIBU to be fed up with the sight of her in the adverts on GN for a certain firm?

She is gliding up and down, appearing to my right, hair coiffed, makeup perfect, looking glamorous, with an enigmatic smile playing on her perfect lips.

And no, I do not want to watch The Perfect Age Film thankyou.

Is it me? Am I unusual? Should I be looking and learning how glamorise myself? Am I at the Perfect Age? If so, where did I go wrong?
