A Chinese cosmetics company has been using skin taken from the bodies of executed convicts to develop beauty products for sale in Europe, a London newspaper reported. [The Guardian, so get out your salt shaker.]Face cream made from actual faces. Lovely! I'd be too corny for a B horror movie, wouldn't it?
An agent for the company informed customers it is developing collagen for lip and wrinkle treatments from skin taken from prisoners after they had been shot.
The agent said some of the company‘s products have been exported to Britain, and that the use of skin from condemned convicts was “traditional" and nothing to “make such a big fuss about,“ the Guardian reported.
I'll be interested to hear how the Lefties spin this, their good buddies in Chicomland using the flayed skin of executed prisoners [cough!-political dissidents-cough!] to develop new cosmetics. Wonder if they take the skin off before or after they shoot 'em? D'oh! China, land of oportunity where Girl Scout cookies may contain real Girl Scouts.
No doubt PETA will aprove. Why test on animals when you can get The Real Thing® ?

(quite beyond being shocked anymore and finding that the hardest, most sour-faced cynicism he can muster falls short of reality time and again.)
