US EditionBrandi Glanville Suffers Facial Burns After Nair Experiment Goes Awry
NO LOC, AUG 4 – Brandi Glanville applied Nair hair removal cream for seven minutes to exfoliate skin and irritate a facial parasite, causing severe chemical burns and worsening her symptoms.
- Brandi Glanville, a former Real Housewives star, suffered serious facial burns in April 2025 after using Nair cream to treat a facial parasite she calls 'Caroline'.
- She believes she contracted the parasite while filming in Morocco, and the situation worsened six months after her return, causing swelling, speaking issues, and financial strain.
- Glanville posted graphic videos on TikTok showing the severe redness and damage to her skin caused by leaving Nair on her face for an extended time. She urged her audience to avoid keeping the product on for as long as she did and recommended performing a patch test before using Nair as a facial treatment.
- She disclosed spending over $70,000 on tests and treatments, was hospitalized in April, and said, “I’m just spending all my money trying to figure out what’s wrong with me.”
- Despite ongoing health struggles and financial losses, Glanville said sharing her condition publicly helped her reconnect socially while she continues seeking medical answers.
