You'll tell everyone who listens, "Botox? Over my dead body!" and yet...that doesn't rule it out.
Funeral parlors have always been home to a by-default beauty trade with post mortem makeovers, but now morticians are being asked to smooth lines, plump lips and de-wrinkle crinkles. Guess which line of wonder drugs do that?
Believe it (and why would I make this up?), injectibles and fillers much like Botox are being used to liven up the recently deceased. Mark Duffey, president and CEO of Everest Funeral, says, “Now people want to be remembered. A funeral is their last major event and they want to look good for it.”
Something to think about when you're picking out the dress you want to be buried in.

YUCK!!
BAD FORM AND CHOICE OF STORY FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR!!!
GIVE YOUR READERS A CHRISTMAS / HOLIDAY PRESENT AND REMOVE THIS DIGUSTING STORY UNTIL AFTER THE HOLIDAYS MAYBE SHELVE IT UNTIL SPRING!
THANK YOU!
Wow, talk about over reacting. Sure, it's yucky, but is removing it really needed? maybe a break from the sugary-sweetness of December is a nice change for some.
It IS kind of a yucky story, but it's so weird I couldn't help toss it on the blog. I mean, are people really, really doing this??
But I'll add a Christmas gift next - something "enlightening"!
I guess they are, but why? don't most morticians have their own ways of making people look better? (anyone who's watched six feet under knows what im taking about) why would you pay for post mortem botox?!? i love makeup and looking good, but i think that plastic surgery on the dead is beyond excessive.
I'm with you. I am most certainly NOT worrying about my makeup after I'm gone.
STILL YUCK!!!!!!
Tacky, at best. Two deaths in my Parish least week, doubt that how they looked as they lay dying, was relevant to them.
This is really bad taste and not very high-end of Sephora. I'm surprised and disappointed in the editors that allowed this post - come on...
Now the another way of cremation is to plan the funeral your self in the funeral home which you knows the best.
Funeral Service Program
Work in the funeral industry can be stressful due to the odd hours, the often rushed schedules, and the emotional toll of dealing with human loss.
Wow!! awesome story. I totally agree with you. This is really interesting and funny........... Good Luck!!!!
