Getting Facials at The Spa - With a Halloween Theme!

Organic, Halloween Facials


So my girlfriends and I thought we'd get our faces all toned and relaxed before going out on Halloween night, to a house party our friend was throwing.  We went to Horton Plaza and got the - I kid you not - "Organic Pumpkin Peel".  The name does describe what it is: a facial peel with organic ingredients in the masque.  But it really left our skin soft and smooth.  Halloween or otherwise, I would recommend not only this San Diego day spa, but the Organic Pumpkin Peel facials to anyone.  It was an hour of calming bliss.  You can get a coupon for a facial, or any other spa service, at Platinum Tan and Spa's website

Let me know what you think!

Getting a Facial for a Saturday Night in San Diego

I sometimes go to the day spa to get cleansing facials, after a long work week.  Besides cleaning out my pores and tightening up my tired face, it is really relaxing.  This afternoon though, I went downtown in San Diego to the urban mall of choice - Horton Plaza.  For tourists it's neat to see for the first time becaus of the alternating levels, walkways, and unique architecture.  If you're a local San Diego native, you know it's got some neat little stores, Macy's, and the staples - Victoria's Secret and a great day spa.

I wanted to get a facial that got me refreshed for the long, fun evening I had planned.  Right after writing this post, I'm going to get dressed to go out.  My skin is going to get its share of make-up, smoke, and probably exhaust between the restaurant and clubs.  At least it's starting off the evening clean, relaxed, and tone.

I chose the day spa's European signature facial, done with Dermalogica products.

Hope you have a fun evening, and I'll post again soon!
