Sarah Jessica Parker says wrinkle creams should be called "retard ageing" moisturisers.
The 43-year-old star is addicted to buying face lotions which claim to prevent lines from appearing, but accepts she may be fighting a losing battle.
She said: "I use any skincare that says it is for fine lines and wrinkles. They are actually so fine, you can't see them. Just kidding!
"It is kind of funny because the only reason you buy it is because you are ageing, so the anti bit, I feel there should be a different name. More like 'retard ageing' or 'stop it'. Something should be called 'stop it'!"

The 'Sex and the City' actress, who is widely recognised as a fashion icon, also revealed she takes great pleasure from not styling her curly locks when she isn't working.
She added to InStyle magazine: "My hair mostly doesn't look good, but I don't care. It is very liberating when you are not working and you don't have to look presentable and pay attention to that.

Former Baywatch babe Pamela Anderson gave an eyeful to those attending the Vivienne Westwood show when her boob popped out of her dress.
The actress strutted down the ramp while modelling for the designer’s 2009-2010 ‘ready-to-wear’ collection in Paris.
The busty blonde showed off different looks including a tutu-inspired outfit and a peculiar blend of tight jacket, shorts, socks and killer heels.
The former 'Baywatch’ star, who is the face of the Brit Vivienne’s current campaign, was hailed as the 'muse' behind the new clothes.
“We have done the casting around Pamela,” the Sun quoted co-designer and husband Andrea Kronthaler as saying. “I think the feeling is of playgirls, but not in the bodies. It''s not like that necessarily. It's an attitude,” he added.
Stories of the two IPL queens battling it out on the playing field and on television
came to a sudden turning point this week when Shilpa Shetty extended an olive branch to her supposed rival in the IPL Preity Zinta.
Shilpa and Raj Kundra are hosting a grand party to celebrate their entry into the IPL on March 10 at the Grand Hyatt. And Preity is invited.
Says Shilpa, "I really want these unsavoury rumours about our rivalry to end. On an impulse I sent a sms to Preity inviting her for the party that Raj and I are hosting."
Shilpa was pleasantly surprised when Preity replied back. "She said she'd love to come. But can't because she'd be out of town. I think that just about takes care of that. I'm sure we'll have other occasions to interact. For now it's enough that she accepted my invitation."
Shilpa thinks these rivalry stories are unnecessary. "We're both well brought-up girls. We were even together in the Bachchans' world tour. And we got along fine. We don't need to be seen as these warring women at all, please."
About the party on the 10th Shilpa says, "It's been a while since Raj and I had friends share in our happiness. The IPL deal is a good occasion to have a get-together. We're inviting all our friends."
Michael Jackson has announced his "last ever" London shows.
The singer kept thousands of fans waiting for several hours before taking to the stage in the UK capital's O2 arena today (05.03.09) to confirm a 10-night residency at the venue in July.
Appearing on stage for around three minutes, Michael - clad in a black military style jacket and sunglasses - said: "This is it. I just want to say that these will be my final show performances in London.
I love you so much. This will be it. When I say this is it, it really means this is it. I'll be performing the songs my fans want to hear. This is the final curtain call.

Prior to appearing on stage, British TV presenter Dermot O'Leary had introduced a short video clip of the 50-year-old 'Thriller' star's biggest hits, which was met by rapturous cheers from the fans who had flocked to get a glimpse of their idol.
It was not made clear if Michael, 50, plans to take his stage show anywhere else when his London residency ends.
Tickets for the shows - which open on July 8 - go on sale on March 13 priced between £50 and £75.
A website, www.MichaelJacksonLive.com, where fans can register for a pre-sale crashed within an hour of the announcement.
Kat got your tongue? Well the actress has been bonding with new buddy Kareena. Yes, Katrina Kaif has not only mended bridges with one-time archrival Kareena Kapoor, she's also taking fitness tips from her!
Says a source, "The cold war between Kareena and Katrina is a thing of the past. The two bonded at Amrita-Ladak's wedding brunch on Wednesday, chatting about everything from their films to designer outfits and how to maintain a fit and fab body without dieting.
In fact, they were so engrossed in catching up that they even made their beaus, Saif and Sallu jealous. Bebo and Kat do different films, which is perfect for them as there's no competition."
When asked about their special dosti, Kareena says, "Katrina's a sweetheart! We had a blast together at Amu's wedding. She's one actress who is true to herself. That's why I am fond of her."
Katrina Kaif too admits to taking advice from Kareena since last year on having a healthy body. Says Katrina, "We had great fun at Amu's party. Bebo is very sweet and supportive of me. She is my inspiration on how to have a fab, healthy body. It all started last year when I got injured on the sets of De Dhana Dhan and suffered a blood infection. The whole illness left me feeling tired and drained. I was also having over 1500 mg worth of antibiotics so I could recover faster. When I went home to London for Christmas, I was listless and lethargic and could hardly move around."
After her antibiotics ran out (on December 31), Katrina decided to do something about getting a fitter body.
"I hired a trainer who'd help me tone my body, started eating food sent by micro-biologist Sonali Sabharwal and also called up Kareena to help me out. Kareena inspires me. She was more than kind and gave me tips on how to have a healthier body."
Kat also got herself a trainer. "I started training under Yasmin Karachiwala. Now I work out regularly for at least an hour every day. My trainer also accompanies me to my outdoor shoots. It's not about losing weight but doing exercises that make me fitter. I do cardio, functional training which doesn't focus on one part of the body part or weights, and sometimes mix strength training with cardio."
Food for Katrina has also become simplified today. "I have stopped eating chicken completely. I have food from Sonali's. The best thing about the food is that the menus are different every day so one doesn't get bored. It's healthy and gives energy. Currently, I'm shooting for Rajkumar Santoshi's Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahani and take the food with me. I can't eat unit food."

Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman was knocked down with a feather when she recently saw her husband Keith Urban's age-old nude 'Playgirl' photo shoot. Keith revealed that his wife was bowled over after she saw the venerable pictures, reports the China Daily.
"Nicole was impressed with the shots. It was spread over two pages and had staples in all the right places!" Keith told Britain's New! Magazine.
Keith, who has a 7-month-old daughter, Sunday Rose with Nicole, revealed that he was not that comfortable posing naked being a father. "I am a dad and a totally different person now,” Keith said.
However, he revealed that if he found the offer convincing he would go ahead, as Nicole was not against it. He even said that Nicole herself wanted to pose naked at the time she was expecting their daughter.
