Women would do anything for beauty. Here are a few of the biggest OMG WTF beauty rituals you might not know about... (and if you have tried one of them, tell us all about it because we haven't found anyone brave enough to try them yet!)
ANT BODY WASH
Japanese use a refreshing and energy-giving wash made purely of Ants because they contain high levels of formic acid, which is energy-giving. In fact you'll find that in some cultures, ants are part of a daily diet. This body wash will awaken the senses and provide an overall feeling of balance. It's also perfect for people with oily skin or sluggish metabolisms. See those ants marching through your kitchen? They're not the enemy after all. Use them to wash your hair, as a shower scrub or even as a bath soak.
Japanese use a powder made from songbird feces, which is used by geishas and kabuki actors to wipe the heavy white makeup off their faces. But don't pooh-pooh the doo-doo just yet. Rich in the amino acid guanine, the rarified droppings are said to impart a soft, porcelain-white mien. We don't suggest you try this at home, since the droppings have to be sterilized to remove toxins and then ground into a fine powder.
In Rome to improve the color of their teeth
and freshen their breath, Romans imported and swilled Portuguese urine.
Apparently, the Portuguese pH was much more divine and manly than mellow Roman
yellow. While obviously unpleasant, urine contains several compounds like
ammonia and urea that actually kill germs and help fight the gum disease
gingivitis. No price listed.
Japan Is in a world of
it own, who doesn’t know about placenta it's slimy, slippery, bloody and full
of fluids, so who would think to drink such a thing? The desire for youth and
beauty can be a strong one, which is why people in Japan are currently lining
up to drink ground pig placenta. Like menstrual blood, placentas are full of
vitamins, nutrients and minerals – everything that an egg or baby feeds on.
