New Weird Facial Involves Actual POO. For Reals.

There are some weird beauty treatments around, but this one might just take the cake. Warning: You will not be able to eat any actual cake after reading this…

Ah, this feels so good, What did you say was in it again?

If you’ve got a sensitive stomach, we’d encourage you to stop reading. Immediately.

The latest facial treatment craze to hit the salon world involves poo. That’s right, rubbing poo into your client’s face. Thankfully not human poo, but not a whole lot better either.

The ‘Nightingale Droppings Facial’ has already racked up celeb clients like One Direction singer Harry Styles, who is rumoured to have signed up for an intensive course of the treatments, which salons are charging up to $300 for.

Said to have anti-ageing and anti-acne benefits, the bird poo facial, also refereed to as the ‘Geisha Facial’, involves applying a paste containing the bird droppings, which are typically mixed with rice bran and water, to the skin.

Touted as an alternative to botox, the idea behind the facial treatment’s unusual hero ingredient is that enzymes in the bird droppings can help to break down dead skin, thus restoring radiance and texture. Though we don’t know how radiant your clients would be feeling after a face full of poo…

Other famous devotees of the treatment include Tom Cruise and Victoria Beckham.

Have your say: Would you try the bird poo facial in your salon?
