Question is, how far are you willing to go to look good? Facials, as we know, come in many types and forms. Of late, there has emerged a new trend in facials: snails. Yes, snails. I know your intitial reaction would be ‘gross, why?’ or ‘I’m not touching that thing’ but what if I told you that your favourite celebrities are indulging in these facials now as a part of their royal beauty routines?
Ladies, it’s time to do away with your inhibitons and explore this trend that has gripped the beauty and wellness industry. Once you learn more about this beauty ritual, you wouldn’t be able to wait for the weekend to try it out yourself.
1. SNAIL FACIAL
Why snails? We might often wonder how anyone first thought of rubbing snail slime on their face as a beauty experiment. Snail secretion was first discovered when snail farmers noticed how their skin got younger and better, and their wounds started to heal as a result of having their hands covered in slime. Recommended by the ancient greeks, taken forward by the koreans who are always ahead in the beauty industry and brought to many levels of sophistication and perfection by the japanese, snail facial is currently the most talked about and preferred facial in the world of celebrities. The results are unbelievable: No more dead skin, no more sun-burns, a healthy looking moisturized skin, rid of all acne and clear and spotless.
2. BIRD POO FACIALS
Why only snails when there are whole other varieties of beneficial slimy stuff for our skin?
Bird poo facial is a japanese facial that is also known as ‘Geisha Facial’ or ‘Nightingle Facial’. It is made from the droppings of a nightingle bird native to the japanese island of Kyushu. The nightingles are fed an organic diet of berries. Sounds less disgusting now, doesn’t it? Atleast the slimy worms are ticked off. Being used in spas in the top cities of the world, they come with some amazing benefits like whitening skin pigment, healing sun burns, skin brightening, discolouration from scars and spots. These droppings are rich in guanine, a naturally ocurring substance that reverses skin damage. A-list celebrities like Victoria Beckham and Tom Cruise swear by this facial. What are you waiting for?
3. SHEEP PLACENTA FACIAL
Okay, so, Mary had a little lamb, right? And with the lamb came out the placenta right? No? Well, it did! Sheep placenta facials are the new rage in uptown Beverly Hills rapidly spreading to other places. Even doctors recommend this facial is full of nutrients since the placenta is rich in growth factors and amino acids. The ingredients are mixed with 24 karat gold flakes to give that golden glow. Healing of particular wounds, getting rid of blemishes, putting a stop to allergic reactions are some of the many benefits of sheep placenta. And who is a regular customer when it comes to placenta facial? Kim Kadarshian. Does her skin come with flaws?I think not.
4. KITTY LITTER FACE MASK
Ignoring the entire thing, kitties! We have got to love anything involving those indifferent furballs deeply engrossed in plotting against the world. So now that I have your attention I will proceed to include the word litter and talk about how kitty litter actually has other uses. This mask is believed to firm your skin, brighten the tone and make you look a few years younger! Made famous by beauty bloggers, this mask shrinks your pores and rejuvenates your skin. So next time you go to the pet store, it’s not just your pet that you’re shopping for.
5. SPERM FACIAL
Of course, I have saved the best for the last.If you have a partner, this facial is the best bet for you since it comes free! According to Dermatologists, semen is anti-inflammatory and supports the essence of life. Beauty bloggers and vloggers have had semen delivered at their doorstep and apply it on their face while it is still fresh. The result? Silky smooth skin. Sperm contains three vitamins: B12, C and E. Spermine, which is present in the sperm is an anti-oxidant. The biggest fact derived from its results is that it is highly effective in treating and reducing wrinkles. Here is your philosopher’s stone. Or philosopher’s sperm, rather.
So ladies, once you have gotten over the ‘what did I just read?’ reaction, waste no time. The regular facials are a bore and come with no squeaky exciting responses from us during the procedure. Whereas these unique, creative and not to mention, organic, facials are what you need to try next for promising results.
