Xehli shared with her followers that the secret behind her smooth skin is a facial mask made from her own menstrual blood.
The self-proclaimed octovegetarian young woman advocates for the practice as a unique and eco-friendly approach to skincare.
“The skin becomes perfect, really smooth, like a baby’s bottom,” confidently revealed the influencer. She detailed the process, explaining that she applies the mask approximately twice during her menstrual cycle using a special brush. Blood collection is done using a menstrual cup, and Xehli dilutes the contents with another facial product to create the mask.
The social media muse doesn’t hide her excitement about the results and emphasizes that the blood’s smell is not as impactful as one might think. “People find it gross, but it’s from your own body. If you’re healthy and have a good diet, there’s no problem at all. And the smell is like iron,” pondered Xehli.
In the comments section of the post, many of the influencer’s followers questioned the appropriateness of the practice. “That’s disgusting, I would never do that,” said one follower, while another commented, “You are so beautiful, why do you hate yourself?” However, there were also positive comments, “So, this is the secret to your perfect skin,” “I’m going to try it too, your skin looks amazing.”
This isn’t the first time Xehli has grabbed attention on the internet. Recently, she surprised her followers by revealing that she had completed a course in thanatology, demonstrating her versatility and interest in various fields.
The influencer’s unconventional practice raises questions about the limits of the pursuit of beauty and the standards set in the skincare industry. Her bold method undoubtedly sparks debates and reflections on what is considered acceptable in the name of beauty and self-care.
