What just may be the strangest beauty treatment on this list, the "fire facial," better known as huǒ liáo in China, is meant to brighten up your face — after it's literally set on fire. For the treatment, a cloth that is soaked in alcohol and an elixir is placed on the face, back, legs, and any other "problem" areas and set on fire for a minute. The flames are then smothered with another towel. The treatment is supposed to help your skin get rid of wrinkles and improve everything from joint pain to indigestion — without actually burning you.
