A woman sparked curiosity when she shared an unusual element of her skincare regimen on a reality show.
The reality TV show, Strange Addiction, originally a hit series, has been revived by TLC and is certainly living up to its name.
The show made its return with the premiere of its first new episode on January 7, after airing its last season in 2016.
In a sneak peek of an upcoming episode, viewers were introduced to Brandy, who incorporates her husband’s semen into her skincare routine.
The Instagram teaser featured Brandy detailing to her friends how she utilizes the semen by freezing it into ice cubes for facial application. It’s hoped that she maintains proper hygiene and storage practices, avoiding contamination with food items in her freezer.
In an individual interview featured in the episode, Brandy elaborated that she applies the semen to her face twice daily, using a syringe for application.
She explained: “In the mornings, I’ll get a fresh batch, which usually means it came directly out of my husband.”
“And then later on in the night, I really love the way that it feels, especially when it’s fresh and warm.”
Brandy further revealed that she refers to her husband’s semen as ‘the product’ and incorporates it into her routine twice a day.
Despite the show’s title, Strange Addictions, the audience on social media was particularly intrigued by this unique practice.
One commenter expressed: “This is definitely not about skin care but this is about her being too obsessed with her men and trying her hardest to please him because this skin care routine does not care.”
Another remarked: “Sometimes there are things that maybe you should keep for yourself….. #justsaying.”
A third noted: “They looking like they are really questioning their friendship with her with these new findings.”
Another person humorously commented: “This why you don’t eat at everyone’s homes.”
As the second episode in the revamped series, this likely won’t be the last time a participant makes waves on social media.
Back in December, Alon Orstein, SVP of Production and Development at TLC, shared his excitement about the show’s revival.
In a conversation with People, he said: “Over the years, My Strange Addiction has built a passionate fan base that never stopped talking about it, sharing the most viral moments, and asking when we’d bring it back.”
