DERMALOGICA CONCEPT STORE – MONTANA AVE. – FACIALS, TREATMENTS, PRODUCTS

May 11, 2010

I finally made it to the gorgeous Dermalogica store on Montana Avenue.  Wow, I felt sparkly clean just walking in there.  This 'concept' store -is very crisp and modern with lots of rounded edges.  Swiss clinic meets space-age meets femme curves. Nicely done.

The estheticians are all highly knowledgeable as they are trained at the amazing International Dermal Institute –The Dermalogica Academy.  Michelle Blaugrund who worked on me was incredible.  There is nothing that makes me happier than someone working on my face who knows their shizznit. And she did and then some. 

The facial was simple, soothing and lovely. I'd say a solid monthly facial perfect for in between something deeper and more rigorous.  

…super comfy room and table…love the changing colored lights that were going off on one wall… rounded pod like room…very cozy and womb-like…can you say reeelllaaaxxx?

It was a super-hard-core work-out-for-the-skin-facial where you're stripped, dermabrasioned and peeled. No acids or chemicals here.  It's the kind of facial where you could easily go out that night and right after with no need for recovery time from any major deep facial procedure. It would make a great monthly upkeep facial or gift for someone.  The price is certainly right for either – just $85 for 60 minutes….

You can add on a microZone (see below) for $25 (adds 20 minutes) for a little deeper skin fix.

Ask for Michelle. She rocks.

PRODUCT OBSESSION – CHANEL’S TEMPORARY SKIN ART “LES TROMPE-L’OEIL DE CHANEL”

May 10, 2010

I'm not into logos and I certainly do not have the legs for the garter designs here, but holy crap, conceptually CHANEL'S LES TROMPE L'OEIL SKIN ART is frickin' brill. 

It's serious art if you ask me.  It's also the first time I have written about something without trying it first, but I was so taken with the look of it all, I just got mad-posting-fever.

For $75 you get:

Fifty-five exclusive temporary tattoos in all, originally hand-drawn by Peter Philips, Global Creative Director of CHANEL Makeup, for the Spring-Summer 2010 Fashion Show in Paris. Artful images of CHANEL symbols and icons, including Oriental cherry blossoms and birds, can be mixed and matched for unlimited effects.

Feels like a pretty good deal to me – tattoo necklaces, bracelets, anklets, birds – and seems like just a super cool way to jazz up anything.

Here are some of my fave pics:
