Like the skin's natural aging cycle, the history of civilization is a story about change. One of the anchor points in human existence however, is the concern for premature skin aging and overall health condition. In an age when personal lifestyle is perpetually akin to technology's capricious makeovers, it isn't absurd that the most atypical and novel skin care solutions come from more natural and distant times.

Among robust traditions, the trendy Uguisu no Fun - Japanese for 'powdered bird droppings' - is one such natural skin care treatment.

Another spa-related treatment, Hay Sweat Bathing has recently gained recognition among affluent tourists looking to relieve their stress. The benefits of this tradition were established by the correlation between the local farmers' general endurance and the hay they carried on their backs, which is pretty ironical considering the treatment's present-day position.

The above treatments are only some of the solutions offered by conventional wisdom. One of the most unsettling and culturally nuanced treatments yet, placenta-based cosmetics are worn to fight off wrinkles, reduce the appearance of aging and moisturize the skin. The bio-stimulating properties of this controverted organ are the prime basis for the massive stream of vegetal, bovine and human placenta that's being regularly derived to the avid cosmetic industry.

Perhaps, the rootstock of all bizarre healthy skin solutions is snail wrinkle-smoothing serums.

Escargot secretions have been recently exposed as wonderful supplements for a responsible skin care habit, which shows that their worth goes beyond the delicacies of French cuisine. Snail slime - specifically in its facial serum and care-cream form - has been scientifically proven by dermatological studies to prevent premature skin aging. As an aid to prevent premature skin aging, dermatological studies have methodically proven the superiority of snail slime-derive facial serums and care-creams.
