I know most of you are out of the New York area, but for those nearby, I must share a treat I’ve discovered (just in time for Valentine’s Day!) – The Red Rose facial at Joanna Vargas Skin Care.
By way of disclaimer, I must say that Joanna has been my go-to for facials for about two years now – there’s just no one else who comes close!
With Valentine’s Day a heartbeat away, Joanna Vargas has now announced a new addition to her spa myriad awesome offerings, a Red Rose Purifying Facial! Red roses signify true love … what better time to indulge?
Roses have a long history of use in folk remedies, especially in skincare because of their therapeutic and nourishing qualities. Rich in antioxidants and coenzyme Q10, the Red Rose Purifying Facial is suitable for all skin types -especially dry, sensitive or aging skins. Besides purifying the skin, the facial soothes red, inflamed skin and strengthens capillaries.
“The scent of roses is uplifting … and if a whiff of the fragrance can help melt away the stresses of the day, think about the beauty benefits that can result from genuine rose extracts and oils being applied directly to your skin,” says Joanna.
The salon is located at:
501 Fifth Avenue – Suite 707
New York, NY 10017

Sounds like a great pre-date or pre-party indulgence to me!
