San Diego Salon-Spa Going New, High Tech and Dermalogica Skin Bar!

I am so excited because I just heard some awesome news. My favorite day spa/tanning salon is getting a makeover!

They were the salon-spa that all the salons copied, and now those salons have flown, multiplied, and fizzled...imposters! The real deal is going to take it to the next level. Besides a brand new interior with their one of a kind style, Platinum Tan & Skin Bar (now) will feature some new state of the art tanning and skincare machines and a Dermalogica Skin Bar! Sorry to sound so hyped but my skin is my life. My salon is one of the main reasons I love going downtown. It would only makes sense that San Diego, a place on the cutting edge of medical and computer technology both would also be at the forefront of beauty technology.

I can't wait to try it out.

Day Spa – Fine Dining Pairing in Downtown San Diego

Day Spa – Fine Dining Pairing in Downtown San Diego

When we were downtown last weekend we wanted to make a great time of it, so we did a Day Spa – Fine Dining combo that was amazing. I highly recommend it.

A quick drink with friends in the Gaslamp, a 10 minute session with my eyebrow coach at the day spa, luxurious European facials, and then to our favorite place for paella and wine.

God I Love San Diego,

Day Spa Skin Treatments Bad for Your Skin?!

I didn't think I would be posting on my niece's day spa blog, but when I read that the expensive facials I was getting could actually be hurting my skin (in a Hollywood article on Monday) I was devastated. 

In my panic I found my way to the online European news source: Dailymail. They always have the juicy tidbits from across the pond for the ladies. I read a story that sounded like mine that made me feel better. It is in their Femail section, and is a featured story about skincare treatments . The article helps you know what to ask for and what to avoid.

I won't lie. I have mature skin unlike the other posters on this blog, and I know I feel like my skin care investments have paid off.  Looks like facials are like any fabulous thing... A little bit will save your skin, but too much will damage it. I am glad I get my facials in a day spa that carries quality facial and skincare products and that has a well-trained staff.

Stay Beautiful,

Dee

Facials at the Day Spa Can Be Family Affairs!

I was talking to a friend the other day and she was talking about how there are many skin care products you can use at home and get salon quality facial results. I told her "What fun is that?" Sure if you're a teenage girl having a sleep over it might be fun, but having a facial done by a spa professional feels more relaxing and mature to me.

I know it was nice when my mom was in town recently and we got Dermalogica facials at the downtown San Diego mall. It was such a treat, even more so because we did it together. The smell was divine and really lifted our spirits. It did feel like leaving with a fresh face, and it gave both of us a better outlook on the rest of the weekend. We were happy to find a way to feel like a queen and a princess for the day, And have better looking skin!.
