Snake Venom on the Face? Seriously?

I heard a word about Ms. Gwyneth Paltrow… According to Page Six, Gwyneth uses a facial wrinkle cream from Ultra Lux 9 that counts snake venom as one of its pertinent ingredients.

My darling Gwyneth, you can have that one. Now I may be wrong here, but I’ve always been taught that all things ’snake’ are bad. And snake venom, very BAD. Deadly. But that’s just my humble opinion. (Who the hell asked me?)

This isn’t your average eye cream. One of its active ingredients is SYN®-AKE, a chemically produced version of Temple Viper venom. It blocks muscular contractions, which keep wrinkles and fine lines at bay. Perfect for those with early signs of aging, it also firms and brightens the eye area, as well as boosts collagen reproduction.

Sounds good enough to me.

Note to Gwyneth: Make a Sephora run. Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Eye may be a safer alternative to preserving your youth.
