Scrub a dub dub

If you get the chance, take a tour of the fab new Andre Balazs Standard Hotel NY in the Meatpacking District. It rises majestically over the High Line, the old elevated railway system that's being turned into a lush green garden. The rooms are crisp & clean, with wall-to-wall-floor-to-ceiling windows that boast spectacular views of the Hudson. Exposed showers and tubs give them a modern, slightly decadent, romantic vibe. The staff was young, hip, pretty and accommodating. With the hotel still under construction the next few months, preview room rates start at $195.00. Treat yourself, or tell a visiting friend to book a room. Sometimes all it takes to feel beautiful is a scrub & a soak. Recharge & indulge while watching the sunset over the Hudson.

Tulum Beauty Off the Beaten Path

Beauty can be found in the most unexpected places. Sometimes it's a much needed retreat from the fast pace of life. Tulum, an ancient mystical city on the coast of the Mayan Riviera offers just that. Your mind begins to slow down as your body unwinds. Lights go out early, which leaves you relaxed & stress free after a day of sun and the ocean.  Let the ocean scrub your skin and take all your worries out to sea.  Swim with the sea turtles.  Drink a beer and eat the best guac their side of the border. Laughter comes easy and beauty is found in a smile. Tulum is an industry insider secret and relatively inexpensive so shhh,  hurry up & get going!

During the day purchase a jar of Mayan Clay(about $20.00 US.) It's sold at most little boutique stores on the strip and in town. Rub it all over your face and body and lie in the sun for twenty minutes until dry. It will pull out all the toxins & leave skin feeling like a newborn's bottom. It's great for a sunburn too. Thanks B. for the awesome image- I was there in full clay taking the pic...
