Anthony Hopkins mocks Kim Kardashian's unusual 'Hannibal' themed Skims face covering.
Kim Kardashian's shapewear brand, SKIMS, has unveiled a new product that is turning heads - the face wrap made with collagen yarns. This innovative accessory, designed to promote a smooth lifting effect, has sparked a mix of amusement and intrigue among the public and celebrities alike.
The most notable celebrity commentary comes from actor Anthony Hopkins, who posted a viral video wearing the face wrap. In the video, Hopkins playfully mocking the mask, referencing his iconic Hannibal Lecter character, highlighting its unusual and somewhat bizarre appearance[1]. His video garnered a massive fan reaction, with comments expressing laughter and admiration for the actor.
Other celebrities, such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Michael Beach, have also shown support for the brand, with Paltrow calling Hopkins' video "genius" and Beach praising Hopkins as a "Great actor with a great sense of humor!"[2]
However, the release of the face wrap has not been without controversy. Some users have compared the face wrap to a 'medieval torture device', while others have called it a 'cash grab'[3]. The brand has faced criticism in the past, and this product is no exception, with the release receiving backlash and trolling on social media[4].
Despite the backlash, the face wrap has gained significant visibility due to Hopkins' video wearing it. One fan commented that the video was the best publicity Kardashian could get[6]. Moreover, the face wrap instantly went out of stock on the website after its release, indicating high demand for the product. In fact, the brand is currently experiencing high demand for its products, with several items out of stock[7].
While a broader consensus or detailed public review is still emerging, the general online buzz implies curiosity and a viral interest. However, no detailed mainstream reviews or widespread endorsements are evident yet. Some social media users and influencers are discussing SKIMS products broadly, but not specifically the face shapeshifter mask[3][5].
As the public continues to react to this unique SKIMS product, it will be interesting to see how the brand navigates the controversy and whether the product will become a staple in the beauty and fashion industry.
