Fresh-faced model Yuri Pleskun stars in this VMAN Magazine editorial, which playfully mocks extreme beauty treatments. This series, shot by photographer Richard Burbridge, is appropriately titled 'Vanity Treatments.'
All of these bizarre beauty captures focus in on Pleskun's face, which is covered in something different in each photo. In one shot this 20-something year old male sports a face full of honey. In another shot his nose, forehead and chin are covered in snails. Other photos incorporate pins, snakes and sugar. Though some of these shots are more over the top than others, it's hard to imagine anyone subjecting themselves to these peculiar (and sometimes sticky) beauty treatments.
This eccentric VMAN Magazine editorial is visually intriguing and offers viewers some interesting food for thought.
