Eye-openers.
Don’t stare at the young woman if she appears before you with live scorpions, their poison glands and pincers cut off, dangling from her earlobes. Beautifying the ears is one of the bizarre ways of enhancing her looks. Some time ago one beautiful society lady appeared like that at a garden party attracting a plethora of other who gazed at her but the young woman gigglingly asked them how did she appear with those live scorpions. There was of course a burst of laughter and they all clapped their hands in appreciation of her bizarre embellishment.
A report from Mexico said that it was the latest and more bizarre beauty craze sweeping Mexicowomen gluing dead scorpions to their finger nails. This novel manicure style sees women attach scorpion to their nails with a venom so deadly it kills victims in just 15 minutes, all in the name of fashion.
