Geisha Facials: Not Just For Bachelor Parties

“Geisha facials” are probably less sexy and just as gross as you might envision - and, for a little time only, 100% more racially problematic! Geisha in Japan, according to someone, would rub nightingale droppings on their faces in an effort to achieve that ever-elusive “white” skin. Ladies. That’s just what the nightingales want you to think. They’ll also tell you it’ll make your eyes greener, cure headaches, and make your hair shinier. They’ll buy you some PBR, share a bowl of Cheez Puffs, ask you for jukebox requests. They’ll snap their ironic suspenders cockily and tell you funny stories about their roommates. They’ll talk to you about “their art” and refer to movies as “films.” And you’ll be smitten! But, then, you’ll go back to their place — which consists of little more than a mini fridge and a dirty futon — and there’ll be some other girl sitting their in a leotard / her own vomit and then…

What? Nevermind. Geisha facial. Racist. The end.

HA! Keep going….what happened to the chick in the leotard?

Hi, my name is Rebecca and I am working with Shizuka New York. Thanks for your coverage of the new Geisha Facial and for helping generate buzz around this new skin care trend. Because of the recent buzz, we shot a video to show that we do indeed have a sense of humor about the Geisha Facial special ingredient - nightingale droppings.
