In reply to JD. Jd, hi. Yes, I've found products with bird's nest and my opinion is the same. Good moisturizer but don't expect anything more. Besides, most products only contain the tiniest amount so it won't do much anyway.

Hi. I just found your blog, while I was searching for info on serums and boosters. I love your blog and am working my way through the posts. As for poo, I have Japanese friends who will not put this on their faces. But they will pay big money for anything with bird’s nest (spit of the swiftlets) in it. I know that bird’s nest is in Chinese cuisine and is big in East Asian skins care. Have you encountered this, and what are your thoughts on it?

thanks, im so grateful that in this day and age we can get synthetic or lab re created substance that will do the trick, so we dont have to be so extreme and put excrement on the face.

In reply to Pastelita. Pastelita, I so hope the poo thing isn't true. Snail slime is used in very few creams, but doesn't really do much. Honey is more common, but somehow, that doesn't sound disgusting. Maybe cos it's so delicious?

I read long ago that poo has been used for ages as a prime ingredient in toothpaste, face cream etc.
But what about snail slime or honey (bees’ saliva secretions, after all) in beauty products? I guess thats a cultural thing.
