What is the Treatment?
The Geisha facial is a skincare treatment that uses a unique ingredient which is a powdered form of nightingale droppings which is also known as ‘uguisu no fun’. It is one of the practices of Japanese tradition in which this secret ingredient was used to get the glow of the sin. This secret ingredient is used in combination with other important herbs or nourishing elements to provide soft skin. Geisha facial is helpful to provide a bright and rejuvenated look. The facial is inspired by the beauty rituals of Japanese Geishas, who used organic ingredients to achieve their signature flawless complexion.
Philosophy/Origin
The Geisha facial comes from ancient Japan, where Geishas and Kabuki actors looked for a gentle way to keep their skin clear and beautiful. For centuries, people have used nightingale droppings in Japanese beauty routines because they are full of enzymes, guanine, and amino acids that help exfoliate and brighten the skin. This treatment uses natural ingredients to achieve healthy and radiant skin.

Initial Consultation
The treatment begins with a consultation where the therapist conducts a skin analysis. During this phase, the practitioner understands the specific skin concerns and goals of each individual so that a personalized treatment plan can be made.
Cleansing
The therapist starts the facial by performing a gentle cleanse. This step involves removing makeup, dirt, and oil from the skin. It is necessary to clean the skin and make it ready for treatment.
Exfoliation with Nightingale Droppings
In this step, a mask of powdered nightingale droppings is applied to the face. This mask is often mixed with other ingredients like rice bran. Exfoliation is performed to eliminate dead skin cells.
Facial Massage
After exfoliation, the therapist performs a light facial massage. This helps to stimulate blood circulation which promotes relaxation and absorption of the products used throughout the treatment.
Hydrating Mask
After the massage, a hydrating mask is applied to the skin. This mask serves to soothe and lock in moisture.
Moisturizer and sunscreen
The therapist then applies a specialized serum that is according to the skin type of the individual. After that, a layer of sunscreen is applied if the treatment occurs during the day. This step ensures that the skin remains protected from UV rays.
