Vanity Insanity

I was able to watch a couple of Vanity Insanity’s show which as the title describes, what people can and will do just for the sake of beauty. Most of the featured stories usually involved going under knife, doing some nips and some tucks here and there. Clearly, this show is not for the faint of heart. But if you still want to achieve that desired beauty, here are some formulas that can make wonder, although a bit bizarre.

Ever since ancient Egyptians mixed unguents of bile of steer, ostrich eggs and resin, people have slathered on everything from the odd to the oogy. Plenty of other unusual ingredients - in addition to avian excrement - are thought to have beautifying properties.

Snake venom: From face creams to lip products, beauty companies swear the stuff reduces wrinkles and has a plumping effect.

Kitty litter: The grainy texture works as an exfoliator. Yeah, yeah - just put the idea away for when the recession really hits.

Placenta: Dogs eat it. Hospitals save it. And some women use it to soften their hair and skin.

24K gold: The shiny precious metal might help increase circulation and tighten skin.
