Brandi Glanville is no stranger to the spotlight, but her latest beauty mishap turned her into a cautionary tale. The former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star decided to tackle a pesky facial parasite with a DIY hair removal method—yes, she used Nair on her face. In a TikTok that shocked fans, she revealed her post-treatment face covered in painful red burns, humorously claiming it was proof that “Nair is the fountain of youth.”
While Brandi’s attempt at achieving flawless skin clearly backfired, it raises a serious question about the risks we take in the name of beauty. After leaving the Nair on her skin for seven minutes—who knew that was too long?—she promptly advised her followers against trying this at home and whipped up a soothing remedy with aloe vera, cucumber, and black tea. Sounds great, but will it be as Instagram-worthy as she hoped?
