Laurie Foor and Sue Christensen provide expert skincare services to their loyal following of spa clients. Consider a revitalizing facial that is specially customized to meet the unique needs of your winter-weary skin; the facial includes cleansing, gentle exfoliation, a mask and more. The accompanying face-to-fingertips massage may not directly address any epidermal needs, but it is definitely a relaxing treat. Add a hydrating eye mask to soothe dry, crinkly skin around the eyes, which are especially sensitive to cold wind and heated air.
