Long, LONG ago?? O_o. Hey!! I was familiar with the “Prell”, “Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific” and the Cover Girl mascara ad. They’re from my teenage years! I ain’t THAT old (although old enough ’tis true). 😆

I remember many of them from my youth as well, although the chin reducer one was a little before my time.
