- Mm yes, this is just me,
in the harsh glare of my computer screen.
Doing some glamor shots.
(upbeat music)
Since the pandemic started,
I have become a skincare addict
because I don't know about you,
but maskne- (click)
- is a thing.
And all the stress has started giving me,
dark circles.
I'm vain so this is unacceptable.
Which is how I ended up with-
- this.
This is the Rejuvenique.
Y'know that creepy old electrical facial mask
that they had on infomercials starring Linda Evans.
- Hi, I'm Linda Evans.
And I'd like to congratulate you
on your exciting new purchase.
I know from my own personal experience
and the experience of others,
the Rejuvenique system is an investment
that can produce amazing results for your face and skin.
(creepy laughing)
- So I'm here to find out, two things.
One, what is the likelihood that if I wear this mask
I will have beautiful skin and not burn my face off
because it's an electrical current.
And if my husband and pets will still love me
if I wear this around the house.
I'm going to be freaking beautiful.
Now, it's time see if the people in my life
and animals still love me.
(creepy laughter)
- [Victoria] What do you think?
Do you still love me when I look like this?
Do you still love me?
That's a very long silence.
Come give me a kiss.
- Nooooo!
(Victoria laughing)
- [Victoria] Do I scare you?
Oh she's shaking.
What do you think about your mommy?
He doesn't care, he's a cat.
So it is time,
to try,
putting,
this toning gel,
on each of these gold contacts.
And then I'm gonna give myself a facial
and hopefully I won't burn my skin off.
It's very unsettling.
Things we do for the blog.
(dramatic music)
Okay, moment of truth.
Oh that's cold.
It doesn't feel good, I don't think I look good.
I don't know how I ...
It's time to do this, so uh.
On.
Oh no.
I can't tell if it's working.
I don't feel anything.
Maybe it doesn't fit my face correctly.
I don't know.
Charge, oh wow.
Three, okay, let's just-
Oh!
(creepy music)
Oh no, I don't like this.
I don't like this.
I'm at setting four so with settings one through three
you don't feel anything, but at setting four
it feels like I'm getting all little zappies on your face.
I'm supposed to wear this thing for 15 minutes.
Ooh, I don't like this.
No wonder she looks like such a psychopath.
Jesus Christ Linda Evans.
Why would you do this to people?
Gotta take it off cause-
Ugh, I'm so sweaty.
Oh my God.
Do you see the dimpling on my face?
Ahh!
It's left a mark!
Okay.
After my initial freak out,
I have decided,
to try it again
because I read the instructions this time.
I'm actually very anxious right now
because I'm anticipating the zappies.
I'm kind of miserable right now.
I'ma see y'all on my bed
as I subject myself to this torture.
Ow, oh fuck!
Ow, it just-
Just relaxing while this thing,
zaps my face.
No!
It says to like relax and enjoy your facial.
I don't think it's possible to relax
when you look like this.
Oh you finally love me again.
Oh, okay, you know what.
I fucking, I quit.
I just quit.
Ugh, screw this thing.
I don't feel more beautiful.
At this point,
20 year old electric facial mask
uh,
product,
is that Linda Evans is a liar.
Because,
this is terrible.
I have tried two sessions at this point
and I did not make it the full 15 minutes
because I started feeling
severe electricity in my teeth.
I didn't sign up for electrical tooth massage.
That's just not what I signed up for here.
Just moisturize and use SPF.
You know what?
Skincare is a scam.
That's how I feel.
At least I kind of get a cool Halloween mask out of it.
