Would you?
Some women in New York are paying big bucks for a facial containing bird excrement.
The Geisha Facial, available at Shizuka New York for $180, contains nightingale excrement.
The Japanese powder, also known as uguisu no fun, is rich in the amino acid guanine, said to brighten and cleanse skin. In the 18th century geishas and kabuki actors used the powder to clean heavy white makeup off their faces.
"I was a little tentative at first," said Andrea Nieto, who recently received the treatment. "But there was no smell. It was creamy and rich."
Yeah, right.

Thus proving that there is NOTHING that women in New York or Los Angeles won't buy.
