| 0:00.0 | Everybody talks about the salmon sperm facial. Polynuclidides are fragments of DNA. In these products, |
| 0:08.9 | they are taken from fish gonads, so trite or salmon trout. So these fragments of the DNA is |

| 0:30.1 | Well, have you been toying with the idea of a tweakment or two, |
| 0:34.0 | but are maybe a bit nervous or not sure about the results? |
| 0:37.3 | Well, Alice Hart Davis will |
| 0:38.7 | try them out and review them for you first. Hello there, I'm Liz Earle. Welcome to Age Better. |

| 1:30.9 | approach. Alice Hart Davis, a good friend for many years. She is an award-winning beauty journalist |
| 1:36.7 | and author. She's reported on non-surgical cosmetic procedures or tweaksments and skincare for 25 years or more and has tried |
| 1:46.1 | countless procedures and products in order to review them before you go ahead yourself. |
| 1:55.8 | Alice, welcome. Always a pleasure to chat. How are you doing? |
| 2:00.3 | Oh Liz, it's fantastic to be talking to you very very |
| 2:03.9 | delighted to be here and you know i can see you on the screen looking ever youthful and we'll come on to |
