Brandi Glanville tried playing the role of doctor—and immediately regretted it. In a bizarre TikTok, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, 52, showed off the severe burns covering most of the bottom half of her face, which she sustained after attempting to treat her mysterious facial paralysis with Nair hair removal cream. According to Glanville, she was treating the cream as an exfoliant. “When I have an exfoliated face, it pisses ‘Caroline’ off,” she quipped, referencing her nickname for the parasite she believes is behind her condition. Though Nair’s website claims the product exfoliates skin while removing hair, it also advises customers not to use Nair on damaged skin and to perform a patch test before each use. Glanville’s gory video was the latest chapter in her two-year battle with an unexplained condition that left her face swollen and paralyzed. The mom of two tweeted last week that she was “finally getting answers” after visiting an infectious disease immunologist. In her Sunday TikTok, Glanville blamed her burns on having waited too long to remove the depilatory cream, but claimed her remedy did cause “Caroline” to move to a different part of her face. “Nair is the fountain of youth,” said Glanville, “But I overdid it.”
