Tom Cruise goes for bird facial treatment

The treatment is an expensive one, which involves mixing nightingale excrement with rice bran and water and applying as a face mask.

The 49-year-old actor is thrilled with the fantastic boost his complexion has had since he began the procedures, reported Contactmusic.

"Tom doesn't go in for Botox or surgery but he does pay close attention to all the new and popular natural treatments. He recently started experimenting with the nightingale poo facial. It was recommended by a Hollywood pal and the results have been fantastic.

"Tom doesn't see splashing out on the facials as him being vain or weird - in fact, he points out there are much wackier fads out there. And he's proud of himself for avoiding the temptations of plastic surgery," a source said.
