The other day, Pavel Durov shared a video on his social networks in which he plunges into an ice bath. “Spending a few minutes in 0 degree water and ice is the best way to start the day,” he wrote on the image, which is cold even to look at. While the Internet is comparing Durov to a character created by a neural network, we decided to remember what other strange beauty rituals the stars use.
Jennifer Aniston and salmon sperm for youthful skin
Last summer, Jennifer Aniston told The Wall Street Journal that a beautician suggested she get a facial using salmon sperm. This procedure involves injecting a substance derived from salmon sperm. Like Botox, it needs to be repeated approximately three times a year. It is believed that such injections help improve cell regeneration and produce more collagen.
Nicole Polizzi and cat litter instead of a pouch
American TV presenter Nicole Polizzi, known for her participation in the MTV reality show “The Beach”, prefers to keep skin care simple rather than spending money on expensive cosmetic procedures. In a 2011 interview with Conan O’Brien, she admitted to using cat litter as a facial scrub. “I absolutely love Google and I don’t like spending too much money on spa treatments. “So I searched on Google for what else I could use that wasn’t that expensive,” he said. Then he found cat litter. When asked whether it was wise to use this product on your face, he stated that he never had strange reactions. However, we do not recommend this method.
Victoria Beckham and bird droppings face mask
Victoria Beckham prefers face masks from Nightingale or Geisha brands, which use the droppings of a rare bird species living on Japan’s Kyushu island. The birds are fed a special diet of seeds and nuts (to ensure the product is vegetarian) and their droppings are disinfected and dried. The feces is then mixed with rice bran and water to create a facial mask. This product is believed to act as an exfoliant, clearing pores and adding shine to the skin.
Stella Maxwell and snake massage
Snake massage is perhaps the most unusual procedure we have ever heard of. Whoopi Goldberg and Victoria’s Secret model Stella Maxwell tried it at one point. The latter even shared images of the procedure on her social networks and described the massage as a “wonderful experience.” It is believed that the calming movements of the boa constrictor eliminate any fear by releasing endorphins and oxytocin. Snakes not only reduce emotional and psychological stress, but also increase blood flow to tense areas, and the snake’s slithering movements relieve pressure on the human body.
Harry Styles and sheep placenta medicine
Harry Styles was once a fan of sheep placenta care. The process involves taking the placenta from a New Zealand sheep, extracting the stem cells, which beauticians say are rich in nutrients that fight premature skin aging, and flash-freezing them. The cells are then mixed with gel and applied to the facial skin.
