    7 Most Bizarre Beauty Trends of 2012

    The latest round-up in this year's kooky beauty trends is taking extreme makeovers to the next level. Of course, nothing is as extreme as going under the knife (and there is ONE totally unusual surgery on the list), but beauty scientists out there are cooking up some odd products -- most made of animal feces. Yeah. Last year I rounded up the bizarre beauty trends of 2011 -- including press-on lip tattoos, fake eyeliner, and hair feathers. And while some of these odd trends eventually became the norm, there are those that just keep getting weirder...

    Here are 7 of the strangest beauty products and services getting some buzz right now!

      This brand new tummy-toning gel uses ingredients like caffeine, amino acids, creatine, and latex-rich manikara tree extract to tone your abs. Although I'm (very) skeptical, the reviews so far have been pretty good. I wonder if it's worth the buck to skip the gym.
      Buy it from Sephora, $38
