Actor Anthony Hopkins ridicules Kim Kardashian's bizarre new product, leaving fans in amazement.
Kim Kardashian's latest innovation, the SKIMS Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap, is making waves in the beauty industry. This new product, part of the SKIMS shape-wear range, promises strong, targeted compression for shaping and sculpting the jawline, with ultra-soft jaw support through collagen yarns embedded in its fabric.
The wrap, made from a blend of polyamide (81%) and elastane (19%), is designed for comfortable overnight wear, with adjustable Velcro straps for a personalised fit. It resembles compression bandages used post-facelift, offering jawline sculpting, lifting, and support.
Anthony Hopkins, the Oscar-winning actor, recently endorsed the product in a viral Instagram post. In the video, Hopkins is seen wearing the face wrap, which covers his chin, neck, and ears. He humorously commented about feeling 10 years younger after using the product. Kim Kardashian responded to Hopkins' post, expressing excitement, and many people reacted positively in the comments section.
However, medical experts are skeptical about the product's effectiveness for long-term facial shaping or collagen building. The compression level may not be sufficient to provide lasting contouring effects, and any improvement is likely temporary or cosmetic. The face wrap might have some limited uses similar to light compression garments used post-surgery to reduce swelling or provide pain relief, but this should be guided by a plastic surgeon's advice.
The trend of wearing various wraps or tapes overnight to purportedly improve facial appearance by morning, known as the "morning shed," has limited scientific backing and is seen by some experts as preying on beauty insecurities rather than offering substantial skincare benefits.
The SKIMS Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap is priced at $48 and is designed for overnight wear, promising chiselled cheekbones and a snatched jaw by morning. The face wrap worn by Hopkins resembles the mask Hannibal Lecter wears in the movie "Silence of the Lambs" to prevent him from biting people, adding an interesting twist to the viral video.
