The obsession with staying youthful has led many to paralyze their faces with toxin and completely alter the face they were given. But the beauty industry offers an even more bizarre way to keep skin soft and supple. Beauty insiders are touting spermine, a powerful antioxidant found in human sperm, as the solution to diminish wrinkles and smooth skin. Bioforskning (yes, that’s the actual name), a Norwegian company, is now synthesizing the substance in laboratories and selling it. And stateside, some women are shelling out as much as $250 for a spermine facial at spas. They could keep their money and head to a college dorm, where, I’m sure, the occupants would be more than willing to give sperm facials for free. There’d probably be free beer, too. [NY Mag]

Vice Magazine put this idea to the test a few years ago. “VERDICT: Cum is not good for your skin.”

There was an episode of Nip/Tuck with a lady who claimed the same.. very, very strange if you ask me.

Men have been using this “logic” as a way to guarantee they’d be able to shoot on women’s faces for years. No difference, trust. (Don’t ask how I know.)

I am really curious as to HOW gullible you have to be to pay $250 for that. Seriously…I’m pretty sure that your boyfriend/husband/one-night-stand would be more than happy to help you, free of charge.

I think it works as a good hair conditioner too.

Kiki, haha, yeah… like we have a choice sometimes.
Agree with fallenangel915, too funny and true. But, I’ve never needed such inducements.

Why pay all that money when you can get a nice facial at home? Giggity, wow am I lame. To be honest though I noticed a slight difference, I guess maybe it’s about moderation and diet?
