Question:

Is it true if you rub red wine on your skin is better than drinking it? why?

this aired at 10 at night but i missed it on the news. if you know why can you tell me because it would help me to know because i am still young and my skin for my age is not all that great. is it because of antioxidents? i would love to know why, dont you think it is interesting to know.


Answers:
Have you ever heard those teaser headlines before? "There's something in your home right now that could kill you! Tune in at 11"...

And then if you tune in you find out it's your stove or your bathtub or something that you already knew could kill you if used stupidly.

This sounds like one of those sensationlist teasers to me.

Red wine, consumed in due moderation, provides good levels of antioxidants and acts as a blood thinner, thus reducing the risk of cardiopulmonary disorders. I doubt that any greater benefit could accrue to rubbing it on your skin. Stick to Nivea.

A better combination is to drink it, and then have someone else rub it on your skin... especially the sensitive areas. I bet your skin improves....

you can't get drunk by rubbing it in your skin so whats the piont

It makes your skin much pretier.
But what msot people dont know is that, if you take an elmers glue bottle and but a small 1x1 inch area of glue on your skin and let it dry then peel it off. It makes your skin soft for a few monthes.
I useually do is an hour or so before a bath or shower on half a leg. Let it dry, and then scrub the glue off alternating between a soft sponge and a waffalaffa thing.

Better for what ...did they say?

I think moving to Switzerland would be better than drinking red wine. That way you can partake of all the Alpine air, go skiing, and have a lovely garden. Your skin would thank you more than you think.
And, they also have lots of red wine in Switzerland, should you regret the move.

I'd stay away from red wine, if I were you... if you rub it on your skin.... hey, wait a sec .... I don't understand you logic here. .. You did not say that the 10 o'clock news said it was better for your skin ... how did you conclude that? Wouldn't you then smell like a wino? It would stain your clothes!!! And I don't think it would take the place of rouge. I am afraid you are having problems with what my brother calls 'skid thinking' ... you just skidded into a conclusion all by yourself! Hey, there! Sorry, if I am wrong.

Of course, you could buy yourself a nice bottle of red wine to drink, and in the process spill a little on yourself and see what happens. That way, you would not feel bad for wasting money, and could satisfy your curiosity at the same time. Did they say how long to wait ... for .."results"?

Heavens, it's early for this kind of question! Why EVER did I try to answer it? however, it is one of my favourite kinds of question!!!!

Peace & Love
