Bird-Poop Facials Are Only $50 During Spa Week
 Reservations just opened up yesterday for New York Spa Week, which will be held this year from April 13 to April 19. Spotted on the list of specials: The Geisha Facial at Shizuka New York Day Spa — a.k.a. the Bird-Poop Facial. With this 60-minute treatment, the spa uses sanitized nightingale droppings to re-texturize the skin. Originally priced at $180, the price plummets to $50 during Spa Week. Yes, isn't it about time they opened up the luxury of spreading poo on your face to the common folk? Like you're not getting crapped on enough already.

Other Press Coverage of Shizuka New York Day Spa
New York Times City Room - If you don't speak Japanese you might not know that the "uguisu no fun" in your Spa Week Facial is actually bird poop!
NewYorkology -
New York’s Spa Week is no stranger to wacky-sounding treatments...add to this list the Geisha Facial with bird poop.
The Three Tomatoes -
They say if a bird poops on you, you should consider it good luck. Now, I already know a few people who are full of crap and they’re not Geisha’s, but this bird poop facial is worth a try.
