Doctors are using this faeces face mask.
Brazilian model Débora Peixoto has been raped by doctors for a bizarre skin care routine that involves covering her face with her excrement.
“It’s the craziest thing I’ve ever done in my life,” Peixoto, 31, told Jam Press of her stinky skin care regimen, which she recently shared on Instagram.
The influencer, who previously went viral for putting menstrual blood on her skin to soften it, said she decided to put on the feces face mask after reading online that it could “prevent ageing”.
Footage on Instagram shows the content creator, who boasts over 650,000 Instagram followers, opening a container of her faeces and smearing it all over her face as if applying a mud mask.
The beauty then pinches her nose shut with a clothespin to “mask” the stench and leaves the outer layer of poo on for a few minutes before washing it off.
At the end of the video, Peixoto flashes her glowing face for the camera.
“It’s worked for me and my skin has stopped flaking!” gushed Peixoto, who raised eyebrows last year after marrying her much older cousin.
Experts have been quick to criticize the strange bliss technique, claiming the health issues outweigh the supposed benefits.
“Of all the skincare ‘trends,’ this is one of the weirdest I’ve ever come across,” said Dr. Sophie Momen, a consultant dermatologist at the Cadogan Clinic in London. “There is absolutely no scientific benefit to your skin in using feces as a face mask.”
She added that this manure makeup can make the participant susceptible to bacterial and viral infections, food poisoning, as well as “redness and discomfort.”
Her colleague, plastic surgeon Mr. Tunc Tiryaki, underlined her PSA, warning: “Faeces contain an abundance of bacteria, viruses and parasites, including E. coli, Salmonella and helminths, which can cause serious infections and diseases.
“Applying feces to your face can introduce these pathogens into your body through small cuts, scrapes or mucous membranes, leading to severe skin infections or systemic disease,” added the doctor, who urged people to use modern skin products.
Commentaries also turned up their noses at Peixoto’s bad makeup routine.
“People are getting too extreme online. This is disturbing,” complained one critic, while another wrote: “This is why aliens don’t talk to us.”
But while doctors dismiss the human defecation skin care scam, some cosmetologists have previously dabbled in sprinkling their faces with bird droppings.
They claim that the residue contains chemicals that break down dead cells to make the skin glow.
