![[Botulism is the World's Deadliest Thing by Anthony Warner#q8 Botox appearance became fashionable]] It's weirdly not-weird how the weird side effects of a really expensive procedure that are designed to make you look "naturally young" became itself a "fashionable" thing. Sort of like how white-pale faces from powder are more fashionable than genuinely pale faces, or how unnatural white wigs during the colonial era did. It's not unexpected, it's just ... definitely a common phenomenon throughout history. I should #articleseed this to find other examples; I bet someone has done studies on this from a psychological or anthropological perspective. Relate to the Social Signalling article, [[fashion]], and didn't I do an overview topic about Cosmetics I can relate this all too as an update to Social Signalling?
