Beauty Obsessed: More than $1000 a Week.

I recently read an article in the New York Times about women who are truly obsessed, in my opinion, with their looks and beauty all together. Some women proudly spend upwards of $1000 a week to maintain themselves.

This woman, Ginger Grace, is a 40 year old real estate agent in Beverly Hills, California. Can this explain it?

Every other day: hair blown out, 45 minutes, $65 Twice a week: personal trainer, one hour, $80 Twice a week: eyebrow waxing, five minutes, $30 Twice a week: thigh treatment, 45 minutes, $125 Weekly: hiking with trainer, two hours, $150 Weekly: Zone Diet food delivery, $250 Twice a month: pedicure (with manicure), one hour, $40 Twice a month: facial, one hour, $160 Twice a month: massage, one hour, $125 Several times a month: makeup and eyelash application, $145 Monthly: photo facial, 15 minutes, $500 Every six weeks: hair color, two hours, $450 Every three months: hair cut, 45 minutes, $140 Twice a year: Botox and Restylane, one hour, $1,000.

I don’t think anyone can explain this obsession. Where does she have time for a life?
