my memories of oil of olay are all older women oriented. my grandmother used OoO, my friends' grandmothers. teenagers never considered using the stuff... things like that.

for some reason, i remember the commercials as only having older women. not elderly, but 50+, sometimes even 60+ or 70+--women with gray hair and wrinkles.

now, is this just some weird brain fart? did Oil of Olay really use older women in their commercials and market to older women? or did they use women in the 20-40 age range like they do now and my mind considers "old" far differently now than it did when i was four? am i projecting on my older memories, making the women seem older?

waaay back in the day they used catherine deneuve, then she went to nivea and they started using older women (yes, i saw gray hair too) and now they're using 40-yr-olds.
