Anthony Hopkins poked fun and gave a playful stamp of approval of Kim Kardashianâs latest SKIMS product â the Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap. In a now-viral Instagram video posted July 31, he channeled his iconic âSilence of the Lambsâ character, Hannibal Lecter, wearing the wrap in the âclayâ shade. The 87-year-old actor mimicked Lecterâs chilling voice and mannerisms and cheekily quipped that the product made him feel â10 years younger.â In his caption, he wrote, âThank you, Kim. Donât be afraid to come over for dinner @kimkardashian @skimsâ
Fans were quick to catch the reference â and eat it up. âAre you having Kim for dinner???â one Instagram user joked, while another added, âThis is the best publicity you could get @kimkardashian! lol. You have to reply. This is so epic!â A third fan wrote, âTHIS is why the internet was invented. Amazing Sir Anthony!â
The viral moment didnât go unnoticed by Kim Kardashian herself. Just hours after Anthony Hopkins shared the video, the SKIMS founder reposted it to her Instagram Story, adding the caption: âIâM SCREAMING!!!!!â
Her repost â which tagged both Hopkins and the official SKIMS account â added even more buzz to the already viral video.
SKIMSâ new face wrap immediately drew comparisons to Lecterâs tan muzzle from the film. And whether intentional or not, the resemblance helped launch the product into meme-worthy territory.
SKIMS Leans Into Its Viral Era With New Face Shapewear
Kim Kardashianâs SKIMS officially stepped into new territory with the July 29 launch of its Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap â the brandâs first-ever facial product. According to SKIMSâ Instagram, the wrap is âmade with signature sculpting fabric and infused with collagen yarns for ultra-soft overnight jaw support.â
The $48 accessory is designed to contour the jawline while you sleep, using velcro closures at the crown and nape to secure it in place. It comes in two shades, Clay and Cocoa. Despite mixed reactions online, the product sold out shortly after its release. Fans can sign up for restock updates via the SKIMS website.
Online responses ranged from curiosity to confusion. Some users asked whether the wrap helped with posture or face lifting, while others poked fun. The launch follows a series of SKIMS products that have sparked similar conversations, including hip-enhancing padded shorts and the âUltimate Butt Enhancingâ line.
Fans Are Divided, But SKIMSâ Latest Launch Is Still Selling Out
While Anthony Hopkins helped bring some lighthearted flair to the launch, not everyone is convinced by the Seamless Sculpt Face Wrapâs promised benefits. The product, which is described by SKIMS as âa must-have addition to your nightly routine,â has also drawn comparisons to a scene in âDeath Becomes Herâ, where Meryl Streepâs character uses a similar beauty accessory in her quest for eternal youth, according to reports.
Experts, however, have expressed skepticism. Facial plastic surgeon Dr. Joel Kopelman told Yahoo Life that thereâs âno scientific evidence to support significant or lasting benefits,â and any improvements seen from wearing a chin strap overnight are likely temporary. Reconstructive surgeon Dr. Michael Bassiri-Tehrani added that such compression is mostly useful post-surgery, not for everyday use.
Despite the debate, SKIMS continues to spark conversation and sell out with each drop. And with Hopkinsâ cheeky cameo making headlines, the brandâs venture into face shapewear is already shaping up to be one of its most buzzed-about moments yet.
