This is how I bring a little bit of Brooklyn to Austin

What's it worth to you? I guess that depends on who you ask......

In a very typical "Dyana" move, ...... anyone that knows me, knows that there's nothing I like more than a challenge. So when I was sent a jar of Innarah Veno Defense Treatment Creme Innarah VenoDefense Treatment Creme  to review, I spoke with the company rep. I told her my usual terms were that I try it for 2-3 weeks, and then I would compare the before and after pictures, and write my review. She replied, "oh there's no need to wait, it works immediately". I thought (to myself) " Listen lady, it's not the first time I've heard that. but sure it does, let's put it to the test." As I said, I love a challenge.
