Today I ventured back into the land of mega facials. I recently discovered Cougar Town on my Apple TV and Courtney Cox is running some serious game on the fabulous scale. So I did something I swore I would never do again... the very un-fun microdermabrasion.
I was soothed into the idea after wandering into the greatest spa / salon EVER that just opened around the corner from our place. Hand milled soaps from Florence - check. Bespoke perfumes from Paris - yep. Little satin pillows to shade your eyes while you snatch your beauty sleep - oh yeah. Do I need any of this... not really. But, I had to wander in and take a look!
And then I met her - the woman behind the counter - who had that Courtney Cox radiant glow, sans any makeup of course. She runs the spa program and swore that her microdermabrasion facial would whip my mug into shape in no time. Naturally I signed up on the spot.
The verdict? It wasn't bad! No pain - a little scratchy. There was a cool laser involved at some point and then she buffed my skin with a big metal disk (hmmmm... a bit odd). I left looking refreshed and honestly, just better. Oh, and I seem to be missing a small mole that I have had since childhood. Now that just screams "results" to me! Sign me up for another round.
