In the movie, Demi Moore uses it as an anti-aging treatment, marketed as a revolutionary solution for aging, promising women to regain their youth and 'perfection.'
The substance creates a younger, idealized version of the person, leaving their original self behind, making a profound statement on beauty standards and the obsession with youth.
Horror movies especially body horrors are not my thing, but I am intrigued by Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley, which inspired me to engage with The Substance.
To liven up your Oscars watch party, I created a recipe for vibrantly green, vial-inspired, Midori sour, Substance shots to celebrate the actresses and the film.
