Gwyneth Paltrow uses snake venom to preserve her youthful looks, it has been
claimed.
The Oscar-winning actress swears by an anti-wrinkle skin cream made from
serpent poison to keep her skin looking young and vibrant.
Gwyneth is said to regularly visit the Beverly Hills Sonya Dakar Skin Clinic
where she buys a wide range of Ultra Lux 9 products - including one cream
which contains the venom.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: "It's not Botox. It is just a
cream that has the venom of a snake in it. The cream is part of the facial
treatments available at the spa."
The 34-year-old actress isn't the only celebrity to experiment with bizarre
beauty treatments.

injections in all."
