Bathing in crocodile products
There have been plenty of alternative beauty routines throughout history, including one that involved using crocodile droppings. Apparently, this was a popular practice in Ancient Rome and Greece. People believed that crocodile droppings contained something that would dramatically slow down the aging process. People wanted to be as youthful as possible, so they would load baths full of the stuff mixed with mud and soak away for hours at a time.
That wasn’t all. Aristocrats of the time often favored face masks made from crocodile droppings and would regularly cover their faces in the stuff all in the name of youth. That sure is dedication to beauty and one we’re not sure that we want to try. Some things are best left in the history books.
