We're obsessed with banishing wrinkles so we drink from special straws…trolls say it's 'stupid' but we don't care | The Sun

HOW far would you go to prevent fine lines around your pout?

One duo of pals recently revealed they're so obsessed with maintaining a youthful look they only drink from special anti-wrinkle straws – however, people insist it's just ''stupid''.


The young women, believed to be from the USA, had purchased the cocktail essential by the brand Lipzi and had even taken it to their holidays in Ibiza, Spain.

The stainless steel straw, which can be snapped up for £18 for a four-pack, is designed to keep your lips straight, unlike a regular straw which forces you to pull a pout.

This is because it comes with an added pebble-like top at the end of the straw, helping you to relax lips when drinking your favourite beverage or sipping a smoothie.

The brand's description on Amazon reads: ''We've innovatively designed our straws with a unique curve that helps reduce the potential for wrinkles compared to normal straws.''

Thousands raced to comments, as many slammed their obsession with remaining wrinkle-free as vain.

As one Instagram fanatic put it: ''It's mentally exhausting to be thinking about our appearance all the time.

Someone else agreed, adding: ''It just looks weird so no.''

A third, meanwhile, pointed out to another issue with the clip, writing: ''So you’re using a straw to stop wrinkles, but you’re drinking alcohol – counterintuitive.''

''But you smiled. That’s eye wrinkles,'' another eagle-eyed viewer chuckled.

''so stupid,'' a baffled social media fanatic chimed in.
