[kanou]

:lol: riiiiggghhttt >.> i have heard of everything but period blood! lol i wonder if it worked on the ppl who tried it? heh

when i was younger (age 14 or something) i had lots of pimple (age?hormones?) anywayz my mom told me about using pee on the face to cure it! @__@ i was shocked to know my mom used it >.> cause my mom has very very beautiful radiant skin and she hardly needs to use any creams...i never gave it a try but now come to think of it if i didnt cure my problem back then i would have tried it! :whistling:

I was speaking to my mother and she said that her mother ( my grandmother who has passed) used to use urine as a toner to clear up any blemishes, acne,etc. has anyone ever heard of this remedy? It sounds repulsive but I've heard it actually works.

 

[luxotika]

Ew! But if it works, go for it I guess!

 

[SimplyElegant]

I haven't heard of this but I think I'd prefer to stick to more traditional toners.

 

[BeautyQueen22]

I actually heard the same thing, yuck!!

I heard about it, "urinotherapy" is actually more popular that most of us would think, still I would never do it, too gross /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

[tadzio79]

I also heard it can heal some illness, like Diabetes.

 

[Jennifer]

[sweetnsexy6953]

[Annia]

bwahaha, you almost tricked me. I knew you'd be joking. hehe

I don't agree with this method, it's gross and I would think there would be health risks.

 

[Aprill]

I heard that you are supposed to use babies urine, but not an adults

 

[speerrituall1]

Yep, many use infant diapers. This has been passed down through many generations.

 

[Aprill]

Yep, you put the diaper on the face, yep!!!

:unknw: Hmmmm, Maybe that's why all those Adult Film actresses have such lovely skin?? Ah the wonders of bodily fluids!!! :unknw:

On a serious note... (Said using best Walter Cronkite type voice) Since tons of other beauty products contain uria (by-product of urine) I suppose it would be a frugal way to save. (although I'm guessing urea used for commercial use is the synthetic type. ) And I've heard that urine is sterile. Still, I think I'll stick with good old witch hazel.... Besides, I have a hard enuf time peeing into a cup at the Dr.s office. I can only imagine how difficult it would be to pee on my face.....

Found an interesting article on the practice uses of urine... (note: the article is not gross or graphic) It was too long to copy in here.
