Spa and salon treatment can get pretty expensive!

Some cool products but that lip plumping thing is just frightening.

I agree that many services, epically peels at a salon, but, I have seen too many problems. Many clients think more means better. Some of these products should not be used too often, and I have found some clients over use these products and end up hurting the skin. I have one client, she insists that she should exfoliate daily. She is not a young person, and her chin is very dry at times, and you can see the verticals lines. I would ask her how many times are you exfoliating...oh last night and today, my face felt oily... If that is what exfoliating does, imagine some of these people with home peels...I see it. I understand many people can do it and can limit themselves, but, many companies promote the safety and really do not emphasize the problems that can occur. PLEASE...just follow up with a skin care professional; you can even contact me for some advice, rather safe then sorry!!

In regards to Zapping your zits...even a pro needs to be careful. You can tend to be a bit aggressive, especially if you are new to this, and end up with a burn, and even worse a scar... Some things should be left to a pro...sorry

I'm a firm believer in getting waxed at the salon for 2 reasons, 1 its a lot less messy and 2 after a series of failed attempts at waxing myself I've decided to leave it to the professionals.

I'm perfectly capable of giving myself a decent manicure and pedicure at home, and most of the time I do - but I still splurge on them every once in a while, especially on pedicures over the summer, and a manicure when I haven't had the time to give myself one at home. The salon I go to is very affordable and the lady I go to is quick! In and out and perfect results! Definitely still worth it every once in a while!

Neat article! I don't see myself going to the tanning or hair products, but the skin stuff mentioned seemed promising!
