Ok, remember how in the movie Fight Club, when Brad Pitt was selling bars of soap that are made out of the sucked-out fat from women that he stole from garbage bins of cosmetic surgery clinics? Remember how gross that sounded?
Well, sometimes fact is truly stranger than fiction. Check out this story on a Chinese cosmetics company that uses the skin from the corpses of executed convicts .
Upon reading this news, I think that anyone considering a collagen injection should probably think twice. Hey, you never know- you just might be plumping your lips with essence of the late Ying Shi Fu, prisoner #928451.
Excuse me while I go throw up.

I’d much rather go ugly. GROSS!
BTW, I’m not particularly fond of the idea of collagen injections, or botox — you wanna put WHAT on my face?!?!
