Show me a woman who doesn’t love a spa day and I’ll show you a woman who is lying (or a robot, it has to be one or the other).

Recharge At Home With Elizabeth Arden’s Collection For Bed Bath & Beyond
Though trips to the salon have decreased with the depressing economic situation, there are plenty of home remedies to keep your skin, nails, and body feeling pampered and refreshed.

Both he and Kate Beckinsale’s director husband, Len Wiseman, have been seen strutting around LA in sandals to show off their colorful polish. But with around 30% of salon clients being male, they’re not the only bros getting their feet professionally pedicured.
