Spa Week Spring 2009

Spa Week is coming to a city near you.  From April 13-April 19, several hundred spas across the country will be offering their elite services for just $50 a treatment.  Whether it’s a facial, massage or body scrub (to name just a few), treat yourself to some pampering. Visit Spa Week to see a list of cities, participating spas and treatments.

I love going to spas and make it a point to schedule services whenever I travel.  My favorite service is a facial. This week, in celebration of Spa Week, visit Beauty411 daily to catch up on fabulous bath, body and spa products that will help you create your own spa experience at home.

Spa Week is a time to get discount spa treatments, but more importantly, it's an opportunity to make time and do something nice for yourself!

Johnson's Melt Away Stress Giveaway!

The package of Johnson's Melt Away Stress products couldn't have come at a better time.  I spent the day, like hundreds of other weary travelers, at O'Hare Airport on Friday, enduring delays and cancelled flights.  When I finally got home and saw the Melt Away Stress products, I grabbed them and ran for my shower!

The first product I tried was the Melt Away Stress 24 Hour Moisturizing Wash.  Containing Aromasoothe fragrance with lavendar and chamomile, I immersed myself in the creamy lather.  I followed up with the Dreamy Night Cream, applying and "breathing deeply" the soft, lavendar fragrance.  Both the Dreamy Night Cream and the Body Lotion are very moisturizing.  The line also includes a Massaging Moisturizer, which is a massage oil.  The entire line has been shown to reduce overall body tension, soothe and reduce muscle tightness and tiredness.  I honestly felt calmer and less stressed out when I went to bed. 

The research shows the benefits of Johnson's Melt Away Stress wash and lotion have been clinically studied and shown to reduce tension by 50% and increase quality of sleep by 30%.  In addition, in a consumer test, women who used the 24 Hour Moisturizing Wash in the shower said they felt as relaxed as if they had taken a warm bath.  Based on my own experience, I can definitely agree with that.  You can find the Johnson's Melt Away Stress line at mass, food and drug retailers nationwide and online at Drugstore.com and Amazon.com.
