The purpose of a human placenta is to nourish a human in the womb. However, many cultures have superstitious beliefs about this ephemeral organ that can be quite interesting. In Bolivia, the Aymara believe that a mother’s spirit could seek out that of her child — to keep the baby safe, they bury the placenta in a secret location. In British Columbia, the Kwakiutl believe that burying the placenta of a girl will improve their clam digging skills and that exposing the placenta of a boy will possibly grant them the ability of prophetic visions. In Hawaii, the placenta is thought to be a part of the child and is often planted with a tree that will grow up as the boy or girl does.
The EMK anti aging skincare line has taken a step beyond superstition. Using the latest technology, they have actually utilized the placenta protein to create innovative anti aging products that work. A favorite of some of Hollywood’s top stars, why not see what the power of placenta can do for you?

Growing interest in permanent make-up procedures has presented a number of lucrative opportunities for trained permanent makeup technicians. But in order to become truly successful, an aspiring technician must first receive the proper training in techniques, procedures, and equipment.
There are a number of organizations that offer such training, and a comprehensive education in permanent makeup can cost thousands of dollars. To optimize your education for future success, here are a few tips for choosing a program:
- Small student-to-teacher ratio. The student-to-teacher ratio makes a big difference in how much you’ll learn from the program. If upwards of 50 students are competing for one instructor’s attention, your questions are less likely to be answered, and you’ll receive less individual guidance. You could make a costly error and not even be aware of it.
- History of the program. Is the program relatively new, or has it been around for at least a few years? A program that’s weathered changes in the industry and in beauty can paint a fuller picture of working as a technician.
- Does the program offer career advice? If your goal is to find employment as a permanent make up technician, a program that provides career counseling and networking opportunities will ultimately be much more valuable than one that does not.
The American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics is one of the top institutions worldwide for permanent cosmetics training, education, and research. To receive training at this prestigious institution, call 800-642-1096.
