The Newpaper article (22 August 2007) on Asao Miwa (浅尾美和), a sporty 21-year old Japanese beach volleyball player, fashion model and TV personality, caught my eye.
The first thing that caught my eye was her flat tummy. Cool. That's how everyone should strive to have their tummies.
But the next thing that caught my attention was her complexion ...
Look at what the sun did to her face!!!!
Spots, freckles, blotches ...
Now, this girl is a popular model, and there were pictures of her which didn't look so bad, some of them probably from when she was younger still (she's only 21).
Her website http://www.asaomiwa.com/ showed a few pictures of her where she looked so much better. That does it ... no taking chances with our skins.
Is she a calender girl ?
ReplyDeleteJapanese corporate calenders always have young and sexy models.
Good complexion ? Have to see her real person to comment. Photograhs can be tricky.

ReplyDeleteNearly there, nearly there. Need to give it a few weeks more plus added reps, and I'll get there. :D

Thank you Snowy for posting this! You should post more pictures of Japanese young women with sun-damaged skin so that we may have more examples why we should avoid the sun. Naturally to faciliate our best view of said damaged skin, they should be wearing as little as possible so that we may feast our eyes see for ourselves what harm the Sun-rays can do.
ReplyDeleteHa ha. Her example is all the warning I need.
ReplyDeleteI really have little desire to see more damaged skins ... doesn't do my appetite any good.
Technically speaking any tanned skin is already damaged, although naturally the damage is mild. A greater danger than purely cosmetic reasons is actually UV radiation. Too much exposure may result in skin cancer long-term. It is estimated that that most people get 50% of all the UV radiation they will ever get in their lives before adulthood. This is partly attributed to kids spending more time outdoors.
ReplyDeleteI regret somewhat not using sunblocks when I was drilling in the hot sun during my school days (I was brown as a monkey) but I didnt know any better than, I used to spend hours on end in the sunny outdoors.
So Snowy, looking forward to the next generation, don't let your kids make the same mistakes we (or maybe just I) did.
