Nightingale Poo Is So Posh

Posh Spice is always one for trying new things – from her oft-imitated bob to her heel-less boots to her newest beauty regimen – a luxurious facial containing bird crap?! Posh is reportedly raving about the Geisha facial, which is derived from nightingale poo. Yumm!

“When Victoria was in Japan recently she was admiring the local women’s clear skin and discovered it was down to these facials,” a friend of the 34-year-old star recently told Closer magazine. “She tried it and loved how great her skin looked. She also uses a cream derived from nightingale poo at home.”

Reportedly Posh has had a difficult time keeping her complexion clear, but she has found a perfectly pooptastic solution with this new trendy treatment. Model Karolina Kurkova is also a fan of the Geisha facial, which combines nightingale droppings with natural oils to hydrate the skin. The result is a sweet-smelling, thick, white paste that is massaged into the skin like a superfine exfoliator. When the mask is peeled off, the result is smooth, glowing skin.

But if Posh runs out of cream or doesn’t have time for a facial, you won’t find her standing outside in her 5 inch stilettos with her face in the air, waiting for a pigeon to drop one on her face. “Regular” birds are no substitute for the high-end nightingale poop concoction. “No, no, no! Especially not with those Central Park pigeons,” a poop facialist told the New York Daily News. [Source: NY Daily News; Photo: Getty]
