They say the 50's were the last age of innocence, I think this model would have a different opinion!

Considering that I was born out of wedlock in the 50s - not buying the innocence gig. :lol:

The tester they used is radioactive. Dangerous!

I wonder how many takes they had to do to get that commerical, and how much that model was exposed to.

They were using radio-active material to prove the face cream was effective! Can we say skin cancer, at the very least!?

Innocence or ignorance??? I don't think they knew how harmful it was.
