The Newest Disturbing Beauty Product

by Ally Batista

There are multiple disturbing and questionable beauty treatments in this world. It seems as if women are easily bored, or not as impressed, as they once were by standard, and normal beauty practices.

Just think about Kim Kardashian’s blood facial, or the newest stem cell facial. So strange, and in my opinion, so unnecessary. DO you really need all of that shit? Probably not.

Now, the world has officially lost their mind, seeing as this new beauty product is the strangest I’ve ever heard of. The newest beauty product I’m talking about is made with sheep’s placenta.

Yup. Sheep, as in the animal, and their afterbirth. The embryonic sack serum craze started in Beverly Hills (of course) and has attracted celebrity clients such as Victoria Beckham (come on girlfriend) and Simon Cowell.

The product is slathered on during a particular sheep placenta facial treatment. The product is apparently clear and smells like vinegar (gagging) and is apart of a process in which you also get a slathering of stem cell concentrate, microdermabrasion and red light therapy.

Dermatologist experts are split on the actual effectiveness of the treatment (stem cells can reverse the signs of aging, however, they need to be stored and harvested in specific ways in order to do so), the treatment is definitely animal-friendly: The serum is derived from sheep placentas that were once discarded after meat slaughter.

Oh, good. If you don’t mind, I’m going to sit this bad boy out.
