Skin feeling sluggish? Try a snail facial
Slimy snail facials
are available at this Jordanian salon
Suheil Sweidan says the naturally produced slime
of Giant African Land snails
will rejuvenate his clients’ skin
(SOUNDBITE) (Arabic) MAN OFFERING SNAIL FACIALS, SUHEIL SWEIDAN, SAYING:
“At the age of 25, your body's production of collagen starts decreasing, and this snail produces collagen, it promotes this substance. As it walks across the face, it eats up the dead skin, opens up your pores, and leaves the collagen in there. It replenishes the collagen in your body."
Suheil encourages people to be open-minded
about alternative beauty treatments
especially those found in nature
(SOUNDBITE) (Arabic) SOCIAL MEDIA FREELANCER, ALIA FARES, SAYING:
"I really like strange things like this, I'm all about natural beauty and remedies and stuff. So I came here, this is a million times cheaper than botox. It's great, so I thought I'd give it a try. The first session I had I wanted to stop and leave, but then I kept going and fell asleep during the session because it was so relaxing. I saw a difference in my face, it feels fuller and has a glow."
