Victoria Beckham has revealed she uses an anti-ageing face cream made from her own blood.
The 44-year-old fashion mogul has splashed out £1,200 on a moisturiser by Dr. Barbara Sturm, which she discovered when visiting Sturm’s clinic in Dusseldorf, Germany, last week.
Sharing a picture of the product on her Instagram story recently, she said: “Dr Sturm took my blood and created healing factors made by my own cells, which is highly anti-inflammatory and regenerative. I’ll be testing it out this week both morning and night!”

Dr. Sturm was part of a medical discovery known as the “Kobe Procedure”, where a patient’s own blood cells are used to produce proteins which jumpstart the healing process and help to rejuvenate skin cells.
This principle is applied to her famed face cream, Dr. Barbara Sturm MC1, where a patient’s blood is drawn, then spun into a custom-blended cream for each patient, spawning the so-called ‘Vampire Facial’ name.
The former Spice Girl – who has children Brooklyn, 19, Romeo, 16, and Cruz, 13 and seven-year-old Harper, with husband David Beckham – discovered the product while taking her daughter for a ‘baby facial’ at the clinic.
The fashion designer filmed Harper being pampered at the luxury clinic, with the caption: “Baby facial with @drbarberasturm. We MUST use clean products on our children!”
Dr. Barbara Sturm is apparently the infamous beauty therapist who came up with the “vampire facial”, made famous by the likes of Kim Kardashian. The brutal treatment sees a person’s face injected with their own blood.
However, comments were not particularly kind, with one blasting Victoria: “She should be ashamed of herself, poor child.”
Another added: “Children don’t need facials – She should be playing with her friends and with toys and games , not being treated like a little adult doing what Victoria wants.”
One more moaned: “Teaching her what’s important in life then.”
Others though, love the close relationship between Mum and daughter, with her followers recently gushing over a sweet snap together.
One wrote: “Harper is such a beauty,” while another added: “Aww. You both look lovely together.”
