Beauty Sleep
Synopsis
Cosmetic enhancement is more extreme than our own. New boobs, butts and faces can be purchased, sewn on and bedazzled to your choosing. And the latest beauty trend? “Sleeping Beauty Makeovers”. A living embalment all performed by a mortician, where teens, for their Sweet 16, jump out of a sparkling coffin instead of a giant cake.
