Unusual beauty treatments
The Woman’s Day editorial team has prepared an overview of the most unusual and expensive cosmetic procedures in the world.
Mexican beauty salons in Acapulco offer ladies a cosmetic procedure according to the recipe of the ancient Aztecs. This is a kind of acupuncture, only the role of needles in the usual understanding of the procedure is performed by … pieces of cacti. According to Mexican beauties, the procedure is rather unpleasant, but effective. Before the procedure, experts suggest drinking a little tequila – a kind of pain reliever and sedative. After the completion of the “cactus therapy”, the body is poured with agave juice, which strengthens the effect and stimulates the process of skin rejuvenation.
Snake massage is popular among Indian beauties. Not every girl will make such sacrifices for the sake of beauty. But brave ladies admit that after this procedure you can say goodbye to chronic fatigue, gain vigor. However, there are not very many fans of this massage – after all, this procedure is performed not by one, but by six snakes!
One of the most expensive treatments is diamond rain and pearl massage. Such an expensive tool is offered by the salons of Egypt. Lithotherapy salon specialists use precious stones to get rid of cellulite and sagging skin.
Not only Egypt is famous for beauty salons that use precious materials in the work on the skin and body of beautiful ladies. For example, in Japan, pure gold face and body masks are very popular (among wealthy clients, of course)!
In Hawaii, cosmetic masks are somewhat simpler – they make it based on bird guano. Local cosmetologists promise a rejuvenating effect after several sessions.
The world’s only underwater spa is located in the Maldives. While enjoying the massage, you can observe the life of the underwater world.
But the strangest and most dangerous procedure is Chinese fire rejuvenation. The procedure consists in putting a towel soaked in alcohol and a special solution on the face, legs or other parts of the body. Then the towel is set on fire for a few seconds. It stimulates the skin, reduces dullness, tightens and removes wrinkles.
