Cate Blanchett and Sandra Bullock Got “Penis Facials,” and We’re as Confused as You Are

Is the "penis facial" a new skincare must have? In an interview with Vogue Australia, Cate Blanchett revealed that she and her Ocean's 8 costar Sandra Bullock visited facialist Georgia Louise in New York for the "penis facial." The official name for the facial is the Hollywood EGF Facial, and EGF stands for Epidermal Growth Factor. As Cate explained, "It smells a bit like sperm because of an enzyme, so Sandy [Sandra Bullock] refers to it as the penis facial." But it gets weirder. Georgia explained to People that "EGF is derived from the progenitor cells of the human fibroblast taken from Korean newborn baby foreskin during circumcision." The cells are then cloned in a laboratory. These stem cells are penetrated into the skin using a microneedling tool, which makes the treatment more effective in generating new collagen and elastin. There you have it, friends. That's the penis facial, and it will set you back a hefty $650. And we thought our snail mucin cream was weird. I..

An Astronaut’s Genes No Longer Match His Twin’s — What’s to Blame, Space or Stress?

8 years ago Lily Garner
Astronaut Scott Kelly is remarkable for many reasons. He is a twin, has written multiple books, was commander of the International Space Station, and once had a serious Twitter bromance with Barack Obama. He also set the record for the longest consecutive time in space by an American astronaut, spending a total of 520 days in space with his longest run being a 340-day mission. But Kelly's most remarkable feat was recently revealed to be a byproduct of his ultralong space runs: Kelly's DNA has changed so much that it no longer matches that of his identical twin, Mark Kelly. NASA studied both twins as a part of its Twins Study to compare what happened when one twin spent an extended period of time in space while the other remained back on Earth. The findings, according to CNN, found that seven percent of Kelly's genes are no longer the same and no longer match his brother's. That seven percent mismatch — which scientists are now calling "space genes" — represents ch..

Homemade Limoncello Is a Bartender’s Best Friend

8 years ago Lily Garner
If you think of limoncello as a Lysol-scented, saccharine-sweet liqueur, think again. While many store-bought bottles are suspect, homemade is a whole other story. Smooth and bright with zesty lemon notes, a bottle of limoncello makes for an excellent edible gift for cocktail lovers, particularly when paired with a bottle of sparkling wine for a limoncello-Champagne cocktail. Granted, it takes a bit of advance planning, but aside from the wait time necessary for the lemon peels to infuse their essential oils in the liquor, it's a very low-fuss process, and it is easy to make in large batches to be divvied up in multiple gifts. Just whatever you do, tuck away a bottle for yourself as well — your cocktails will thank you . . .
