After studying the effects of encasing the 10th scientist's head in a plastic cube, 9 out of 10 agree that a healthy human face needs oxygen. Maintain a majestic visage and a robust behind-the-skin scene with today’s Groupon: for $45, you get a customized signature hot-stone full facial (a $65 value), plus an exfoliating lip-renewal treatment or eye-rescue treatment (each a $30 value) at The Spa on East 71st Street (a $95 value).
As a full-service refuge of relaxation, The Spa pampers overwrought patrons to a state of liquidy repose and revitalizes tuckered out faces with a battalion of cleansing and detoxifying techniques. Navy SEAL-trained skin therapists customize every step of the one-hour signature full facial to the client's skin type. The treatment begins with a double cleanse, which lifts unwanted dirt and oil from pores, a powerful exfoliation using steam and cleansing brushes, and a mask and moisture-protection treatment that seals in hydrophilic nutrients. As the facial does its work, a skin therapist massages the face, neck, and shoulders with hot stones, and hands and arms with foam fingers.
The cherry on the relaxation sundae comes in two flavors—the eye-rescue or exfoliating lip-renewal treatment. The eye-rescue treatment de-tireds tired eyes with gentle exfoliation that removes dermis-dulling debris and a calming mask that infuses peptides, proteins, and vitamins. The exfoliating lip renewal smoothes and plumps lips with a hydrating conditioning treatment, creating smiles that can be easily spotted in Google Earth photographs.
