I became smitten with the tub early on. The youngest in a long line of bath-takers, my love for the tub was sealed when my parents installed an extra-long bathtub to accommodate their extra-long bodies. It became my ritual to take a bath at the end of each day, before a night on the town, <... >

From the moment we met at the NYU School of Dentistry, we knew that together, we were a force to be reckoned with and we were going to take the male-dominated cosmetic dental industry by storm, which is exactly what we did. When we started to create DT Smile Design, we considered the best way <... >

At some point I’ve become the Anthony Bourdain of beauty treatments. My editors know that I’m a willing body that’s been waxed, cut, stripped and ripped, all in the name of what’s hot in treatments. So when I was told that I’d been scheduled to try the Geisha Facial at Shizuka where the signature was <... >

With summer in full swing, the thought of never having to shave unwanted hair again has never been more appealing, but actually lasering my body to permanently remove said hair scares me senseless. When talk amongst my girlfriends turned to their own rave reviews of laser hair removal, I couldn’t help but be a bit <... >

We got away with it all winter and throughout the on again, off again Spring season.

A facial is the ultimate in luxury, as far as spa treatments are concerned. I would choose it over a massage any day, not only because it feels simply divine but the promise of glowing skin that goes far beyond that hour of bliss makes the treatment even more worthwhile. I’ve had countless facials, some <... >

They all seem the same, right? 10 of your closest friends all clad in skinny jeans and glittery tops, indulging on phallic-shaped food and paraphernalia and daring a veil-adorned guest of honor to urge fellow bar patrons to ‘suck for a buck’. Classy, eh? Well, if you want a little less ‘girls gone wild’ and <... >

It seems obvious now, doesn’t it? We wash and condition our hair in the shower. Why didn’t it occur to anyone that we should create our own home spa treatments by washing and conditioning our skin in the shower? Leave it to the man who is the hairstylist to many of the most beautiful people <... >

Medical treatments that cross into traditional spa services is not news. We’ve all seen, experienced or read about procedures like micro-dermabrasion, laser hair removal, cellulite remedies and mesotherapy. ‘Google’ the term medi-spa and there are over twenty pages on the phenomenon!
