This is a genuine label that was found on a box of trainers.
It's almost on a par with the lipstick that's advertised on TV that claims to last all day. Then when you read the small print at the bottom of the screen it says 'reapplication may be needed to maintain colour'. Has anyone else seen any other daft ones? |
