Actress Gwyneth Paltrow says the craziest beauty treatment she ever had was apitherapy - bee stings.
The 42-year-old actress is always the first to try the latest skincare trends, but believes using the insect's venom for medicinal purposes was perhaps one step too far, reported Marie Claire magazine.
"The craziest treatment I've ever tried is when I was stung by a live bee. It's called apitherapy and it's apparently been used since Egyptian times to promote healing. For a more relaxing treat, I love Ila Bath Salts at the end of the day," Paltrow said.
The 'Shakespeare In Love' star, who is married to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, has experimented with non-invasive cosmetic procedures like Botox in the past, but she is weary about go to the extreme.
