When will companies Iearn that going woke isn’t a great idea, as it means that they’ll go broke sooner rather than later, or at least see their stocks and fortunes plummet? Not soon enough to not shoot themselves in the foot financially, apparentIy, as Victoria’s Secret just made the same woke mistake as innumerable companies before it and made a very bad business move rooted in wokeness.
What did it do? It replaced its astoundingly attractive “angels” with the woke, pink-haired, America-bashing soccer player Megan Rapinoe and a slew of “plus size” models.
That might have sounded great in a boardroom full of people sipping soy lattes and chowing down on kale chips, but most American women, when they buy Iingerie, don’t want to look like “plus size” models or Megan Rapinoe.
And so Victoria’s Secret stock has tumbled dramatically and the company has had to fire a slew of executives as its financial fortunes have soured, as the New York Post reported, saying, in a July of 2022 post, that the lingerie giant’s shares crashed to $26.80 and that it had Iaid off 160 management employees from its headquarters in Ohio, about 5% of its home office headcount.
That stock crash problem has continued for the brand, as the Iingerie giant’s stock is, as of the time this article was updated (January 12, 2024), just $24.23. When 2022 began, it’s stock price was still over $56, and the crash began in February of that year and has more or less continued since.
In any case, why might the stock crash have happened and the firings have been necessary? Well the NYP hints at the same issues mentioned above, saying (emphasis added), “Now it offers plus sizes and features plus-size models in its marketing as well as selling masectomy bras for the first time. It also Iaunched its first-ever Mother’s Day campaign last year.
Its stores are brighter and it’s championing more causes highlighting women’s achievements, tapping famous athletes Iike Megan Rapinoe and actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas to represent the brand.
100-Year-Old Beauty Secret: Potato & Turmeric for Wrinkle-Free, Firm Skin
Some of the most powerful skincare remedies don’t come in fancy jars — they come from nature, passed down through generations. One such timeless trick? A simple mix of potato and turmeric. Used for over a century, this natural combo helps tighten skin, fade wrinkles, and restore a healthy, youthful glow.
Why Potato and Turmeric?
Potato is rich in vitamins C and B6, plus natural enzymes that brighten the skin and boost collagen. It helps reduce puffiness, smooth fine lines, and even out the skin tone.
Turmeric, on the other hand, is a powerful anti-inflammatory with antioxidant properties. It supports skin healing, reduces age spots, and slows down signs of aging – all while giving your skin a healthy glow.
Together, they create a gentle but powerful facelift effect — naturally!
How to Make the Potato & Turmeric Mask
Ingredients:
- 1 small raw potato
- ½ teaspoon turmeric powder (organic)
Instructions:
- Grate the potato finely and squeeze to extract the juice (you’ll need about 2 tablespoons).
- Mix it with the turmeric powder until you get a smooth, yellow liquid.
- Apply evenly to clean skin using a cotton pad or brush.
- Let it sit for 15–20 minutes (you might feel a gentle tightening effect).
- Rinse off with lukewarm water and pat your skin dry.
Use this mask 2–3 times a week for best results. For sensitive skin, do a patch test first, as turmeric can sometimes stain or cause mild irritation.
Firm, Smooth Skin – The Natural Way
This 100-year-old remedy is proof that you don’t need complicated routines to care for your skin. Potato and turmeric work in harmony to lift, tone, and refresh your complexion — all without chemicals or harsh ingredients.
Let your skin glow with the wisdom of tradition and the power of nature.
