Posh Spice aka Victoria Beckham has made it famous lately, but actually nightingale droppings as a facial have been used for centuries by Oriental people who value a white clear complexion:

Japanese Nightingale Droppings

And, yes, I have used it. It's UV light sterilized (I have to trust them here) and the smell is sorta....organic....but not totally unpleasant...It's just a white granular product in an adorable shaker container that you mix with water into a paste and apply to your skin for a short time. It will clarify the tone of your skin, altho it didn't make me Lily White....just eliminated the discolored areas. I had to use it consistently for several weeks for results and wear sunblock.

How game are you?!!

yup!

I was hoping you'd notice!!!!

What must the aliens think of us: Red lights, bird poop, viper venom, acids, dermarollers (needling), tattooed eyebrows (not for me!), you name it! And why do we do it anyway??? For me it's an obsession and a hobby. I've always been intrigued by beauty rituals, utterly fascinated!

Should we start a "True Confessions" thread about the crazy $h!t we've tried? Including weird facial treatments, exercise regimes, and diet crazes!!!!?

Oh and please elaborate on those hair rituals.....fascinating!

Hell if putting that on my face made me look better why not? It does sound crazy putting nighingale droppings on your face. But if your desperate enough for improvement you'll do anything...I'm game if it will help my face
Bring on the bird droppings...lol

So let me see now if I understand this right. I walk through the park with my face pointed to the sky and hope for some bird to fly overhead and drop some nice warm product on my face? I don't know about this - the only good thing that I see here is that it is fresh and preservative free, and cheap.

hair rituals???
Yeah, you know: the braiding, pressing, all the things you said the AA girls did together.... In the town where my sister lives there is a place called "Hair Braiding: original Motherland style"... We always want to go in to see if they can do something fun with our wispy baby fine frumpy Anglo hair! They'd get a good laugh at us anyway!!!

ohhhhhh ..... well, I just joined FaceBook and reconnected with many of my AA friends. After seeing my photo albums, they cannot believe that I wear my hair straight now.

But Fawnie, I still cannot do my own hair. I have no clue. I wonder what the reaction would be if you walked into that hair braiding shop. I think you should do it, Fawnie! Be ready for an adventure!

[email protected] "one too many adventures"..! Never!!
You GUYS! The bird poop is SPECIAL bird poop! It has to come in a cute little pink cannister and be from JAPAN to be the right GEISHA bird poop! Come ON!!

DL, I always thought AA girls thought Anglo girls looked totally stupid with dreads and cornrows....and come to think of it, Britney DOES look awful with them! It's just one of those things that doesn't translate...on the other hand, Mary J looks excellent in a blonde bob! So go figure!!

Well, I haven't followed this thread too closely but I have learned one thing. Whenever life gets me down, or I am frustrated with my work, I'll just think of those folks who have to collect this product and sort out the samples from all the different types of birds. Now that's a tough job!
