Pronunciation: RIN keul DINK CREME

Sentence: The instructions say that according to the "Law of Getting Attractive" that if I catch on to the Sheecret and have positive thoughts and feelings then this cream will work.

Its a lot of hard work and I still don't look any better.

Etymology: RINKY DINK: a slang term meaning 'anything that is shoddy, cheap, worn-out, corny, or cheap in quality' WRINKLE CREAM: cream to take away wrinkles

Pronunciation: djoo ven churz

Sentence: Edna went on one of her juventures every evening before bed. She applied the ridicuously expensive beauty cream purported to take years off her face, in en ffort to look young again. Some mornings she thought she had really poncedeleoned herself, but once she put her glasses on, the lines in her face reappeared. The only part of youth she seemed to rediscover was the fact that her face also broke out. This is what middle age is really about she thought...when you have to use Oil of Olay and Clearasil at the same time!

Etymology: Juvenile (a youthful person) & Adventures (take a risk in the hope of a favorable outcome)

Pronunciation: re joo ven no shuns

Sentence: Despite, faithfully using the dreamcreams and miracalotions, after age sixty, seeing my aging face in a mirror, causes me to wrinkcoil away from the image. They do not work. But hope springs eternal, so we women never give up on our silly rejuvenotions!

Etymology: REJUVENATIONS by POTIONS and LOTIONS are unrealistic NOTIONS = REJUVENOTIONS. The last two syllables in the pronunciation could be part of the etymology as well ... for we do it in hopes of 'NO SHUNS'.
