At the present time a spa has offered a beer bath, Snail Mucus facial
and now bird poop facial. Does it sound weird?
The $180 luxury spa is offering the traditional Japanese treatment made from imported Asian nightingale droppings mixed with rice bran.
Hundreds of men and women go to the Shizuka New York skin salon, just off Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, each month to receive this treatment, which is touted as a way to keep the face soft and smooth.
Spa owner Shizuka Bernstein, a native of Tokyo married to a U.S. citizen, has been offering what she calls the Geisha Facial, for the past five years.
"I bring the Japanese beauty secrets to the United States," Bernstein, who learned the treatment from her mother, said.
The Geisha Facial poop treatment, while relatively rare in the United States, is secret in Japan, where it was first used in the 1600s by actors and geishas.
"That's why Japanese grandmothers have beautiful skin," Duke Klauck, owner of the Ten Thousand Waves spa in Santa Fe, New Mexico, offering the bird poop facial for $129 said.
