I don't think I've ever spent less than $50 for a bikini wax, so I was a very wary about Uni.K.Wax Centers and their $19 full bikini wax. Would the room be clean? Do they double-dip? How in the world is it under $20!? Well -- there is NO double dipping and every customer has their own individual canister of wax. The wax is made in-house which helps keep costs down and it's specially formulated to be all-natural and elastic so it acts as the strip itself. The wax is also applied at your body temperature, so there is no chance you will get burned which brings me back to my initial question - how do they keep their prices so low? Volume! The Midtown NYC salon waxes about 600 people A DAY!!! It's super-clean and the woman who waxed me had 10 years experience. As long as you don't mind elastic wax (versus strips), there's no difference between this spot and Completely Bare, Bliss or any of the comparable spas. If you're still not convinced to try this frugal wax, the fact that Beyonce and Cameron Diaz are fans might sway you:-)
There are 20 Uni.K.Wax Centers locations including ones in New York, San Diego, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and all parts of Florida including the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area, Palm Beach County, Tampa, Orlando and Gainesville.


Bath & Body Works has recently come out with some new lines that target two of most women's biggest areas of concern -- stress and sleep. As for the first concern, they've have 



Oprah and I have similar tastes; I love Hermes, she loves Hermes... I love Natura Bisse, she loves Natura Bisse and keeps it in her green room for celeb guests on the show... I love Farm House Fresh, she loves Farm House Fresh-- you see a pattern here? Our latest obsession, the FHF Heel Glaze, smells so yummy I want to eat it sometimes! Made of genuine honey and aloe leaf juice with pineapple and papaya fruit extracts, it coats my feet in a velvety protective layer of softness and makes it feel like baby skin! I love the little brush applicator (but sometimes feel like I'm basting myself for the oven)-- it keeps everything mess free cuz this can get a bit sticky and messy but so worth the trouble! I got mine at Cooper Spa at Craig Ranch-- call 214-383-1010 to order! Tell them Beauty Snob sent you for free shipping in the United States.
Or you can order online
There are other things to worry about in life than dimply saggy arms but let's face it, we all want toned and firm biceps! Now if you're not willing to put in the time at the gym, chances are you will not achieve Jennifer Aniston worthy triceps but you can try to improve your arms' tone, firmess and definition with a jar of cream. According to Orlane, by addressing the particular physiology of the skin on the arms, the cream
is able to preserve and improve their contours. Not a body lotion but
rather an intelligent response to the arms' unique aging process (or so says Orlane).
I don't know how sold I am on this, I've tried all kinds of products on tightening and most just peel off or leave me feeling greasy.
I'm not brave when it comes to pain. I'm that person at the doctor's office who can't stand still, who keeps taking deep breaths while telling themselves it's going to be OK when all I have to do is get blood drawn! Seriously..AHH! Waxing and sugaring have thus similarly always given me slight anxiety. Of course they never end-up causing nearly as much pain as I build-up in my head... Why can't we sometimes just learn to relax!?? Any case given that my last wax was a little over three weeks ago I'm due for a touch-up, so I thought why not be brave and frugal and do the little touching-up myself for once!? In comes
