Zo Kravitz Does Not Want You Botoxing Your Armpits

Get the Full StoryZo Kravitz recently spoke to Vogue about her new lipstick collection for YSL Beaut , and since she was talking lipstick, it s only natural that Vogue would ask her about beauty trends. Zo says she relieves stress with wine, weed, and sleep stars, they re just like us! , and that one of her beauty regrets is wearing too much. Zo says she wishes people would stop over-contouring their faces because everyone is starting to look the exact same. Okay AND??? thought anyone currently posing for an Instagram picture with a SugarBear hair gummy balanced between their teeth.

Eventually Zo was asked about the beauty trend that has shocked her the most. In a world of vagina steaming and vampire facials and covering your whole body in foundation, Zo is most skeptical about Botox in your armpits for sweating.

Sweat-preventative Botox recently made the news thanks to Chrissy Teigen, who Instagrammed herself receiving several Botox injections into her armpits to prevent sweating. Chrissy was ecstatic, writing, Truly best move I have ever made, I can wear silk again without soaking. Zo isn t so thrilled with the idea of blocking all your sweat glands.

That is the dumbest, scariest thing I ve ever heard, she says. Don t do that sweating is key.

Botox for sweating isn t necessarily a current trend, as it s kind of common to hear about people who have injected their pits. And it s a treatment option for people with hyperhidrosis aka the whore-in-church type sweaters. But Zo is no fan, because she s pro-sweat. Zo doesn t explain what could go wrong if you pump your pits full of botulism toxin, but risks reportedly include trouble breathing, muscle weakness, and loss of bladder control. So here s a chance the dampness could just migrate south from your pits to your crotch.

I think I understand where Zo is coming from here. Zo s mom is Lisa Bonet, who looks like she bathes solely in the light of the full moon and brushes her teeth with good vibes. And it looks like a lot of that energy rubbed off onto Zo . But what Zo is forgetting is that not everyone smells and looks good when they sweat profusely. Zo at peak-sweat probably looks like a mermaid that just exited the ocean and smells like a crystal store. Not everyone is so lucky. I m not advocating for Botox here. But I m just saying that some people s peak sweat will have strangers asking if you got caught in some kind of freak sewer explosion.
